This job was handled very well despite complications. All installers were friendly, courteous, and on time. Work was done very well to our knowledge. Clean up was great.
At the end with a tiny leak and question regarding damaged door, it did require some persistance on our part to have this resolved.
However, overall we are pleased and will likely use Birnie's again.
Thanks :)
ps. Gift basket to say " Thanks for Business" was an awesome surprise!

I was very happy with the service today completed at my home. Chris was very professional and explained in detail what he would need to do and proceeded to clean up every bit of the mess afterward. The service call was a great experience and i have used Trb in past and will continue to use Trb in the future.

I would like to start off by saying thank-you to you, the young man who came to our house to do the work, and the staff at Thos.R. Birnie & Sons Plumbing for the wonderful service I have received to date. It is clear that you're company went out of your way to assist us with our plumbing. From start to finish your company has been nothing short of outstanding. I have totally renovated my house from brick work, to plumbing to electrical with over 8 contractors used for different parts of the construction. Your company was by far the best example of professionalism I could expect.

My wife and I are both active serving members of the Canadian Forces and we have been away all summer conducting training and teaching other soldiers. When we found out that sewage had back up into our basement my biggest concern was how could I possibly deal with this so far from home with only my wife's elderly grandmother at home. The assistance, patience, advice and professionalism your company displayed was above and beyond what I could have expected. You turned something that could have been a nightmare to deal with into a simple repair with no hiccups. I could not have been happier with the service your company has given my family.

I have already recommended your company to many people on my street where I live or other members of the Canadian Forces who live in Hamilton and I will continue to do so without hesitation.

Again thank you for everything you have done for us.

No Hot Water

Technician left having created a new problem then when I discovered this, I was advised that they do not warranty their work. Will never use them again. They are overpriced.

Company Response

We are very disappointed to read this review. Particularly since the actual job that we came to do for this homeowner was resolved with no issues. When we came back to the job at no charge, we found it was an entirely different issue- we offered a few options to get the job fixed and she declined insisting it fell under the other job's warranty. The management went above and beyond to assist in resolving the matter, yet it was evident that this could not happen. It is unfortunate that this left the homeowner unhappy and we do wish her the best.

plugged toilet

I was very pleased with the serviceman who came to my house this week to fix our plugged toilet. He was very courteous and fixed the problem quickly. I am a senior and am always concerned when I invite a stranger into my home. He was very professional and put me completely at ease. The job was done quickly and for the price that was quoted. I have used Thos. R Birnie & Sons for many years and will continue to do.
