Our hot water heater broke suddenly last night. Jake at Cornel came quickly, fixed the issue, showed us how to troubleshoot for next time, and helped us figure out how to save money. He was very friendly and explained what he was doing in an easy to understand way. After running some quick numbers, we ended up getting the 1 year membership so it will be easier and more cost effective to schedule follow up maintenance for our HVAC as well, since that hasn't been looked at in almost 10 years & we've been meaning to do that anyways. We used Cornel a couple times before & had a good experience again today!
Cornell Plumbing and Heating ANSWERED THE CALL! Our furnace crapped out in the winter, it was 20+ years old so we knew it was coming but put it off until it died. We were freezing for less than a day before Cornell quickly responded to our request for an inspection to see if the furnace was fixable. The inspector was very thorough and helped us understand all of the issues with our dead furnace and quickly got us connected to Randy who came over in a matter of minutes to walk through the options. Randy was very very knowledgeable and so friendly. I never felt pressured when talking to him, he was very practical and honest about what would be the best bang for our buck, while ensuring we had a solid heater for decades to come. We were on the fence about installing central AC (our house was built in 1890) but the summers in Portland have gotten so tumultuous that every year for the past four years, we've shopped around for AC quotes but just couldn't afford to commit. Randy built a great package for us that added AC to our furnace for a price that was very reasonable, so, we did it! We have a two year old and a baby on the way and we are very very thankful to know we have cool summers ahead of us and warm winters to enjoy in the comfort of our home. It's been night and day with the new furnace compared to what we were working with before. I never knew how warm our home COULD have been, until we got our new furnace installed. Oddly enough, our neighbors furnace also died like a week later and he saw we had Cornell over and asked about our experience. We were very quick to highly recommend Cornell, and my neighbor also got a new furnace from them! Needless to say, it was a smooth, quick and satisfying experience, you know, as satisfying as it can be to have to suddenly invest in heating and cooling, which can be many tens of thousands of dollars... but with the right folks, and the right system, the experience can be a sort of blessing in disguise - which it was for us!
Thank you to Evian, Baxter, and Ben K for completing my project! From beginning to end, our experience with Cornel’s Plumbing was amazing. We have a 1953 home with a lot of 'DIY' history and original galvanized steel pipes, so we expected some major hurdles. Evian, Baxter, and Ben K. handled the entire modernization of our supply and waste lines perfectly—and they did it at a price that beat out their competitors! Their communication with us was 10/10—always upfront and willing to answer every question. But what truly left me speechless was their communication with each other as a team. Watching them work was incredible; it was like they could read each other's minds! I know our crawl space was a major challenge, but they did a FANTASTIC job navigating it. They even discovered our toilet was leaking from previous damage; we bought a new one, and they gladly installed it and even disposed of the old one for us! We had electrical grounding in our quote, but they informed us it wasn't actually needed and lowered our price accordingly instead of just charging us for it. I was also incredibly happy with the finish work—the new faucets and spouts look beautiful and really modernize the space. The crew worked overtime to ensure my family had running water and a working toilet for the weekend. They were incredibly kind to my family and our dogs, and even offered us drinks or food when one of them went on their lunch runs. They took on a big project and absolutely nailed it. If you want a team that is honest, professional, and genuinely pleasant to have in your home, ask for these guys.
From the time I ordered a new water heater to installation being fully completed was less than 24 hours. Super easy process and experience all around. James was the install tech and he was polite, clean, articulate, and knowledgeable. The price was competitive too. I wholeheartedly would use Cornel’s again. … and no, they didn’t pay me or reduce my costs to post this.
Tyler arrived on time and got right to work deep cleaning our furnace and performing routine maintenance on our water heater. He patiently explained the process and the benefits of the Cornell’s Signature Plan. We were impressed and signed up immediately! It gives one great peace of mind knowing Cornel’s is at your service. I would highly recommend them and be sure to ask for Tyler Lewis~you’ll be in great hands!
