Were we dealing with Maglish plumbing or some ABC company? This week, we called Maglish plumbing to fix a small boiler for a floor heating system. We never talk to a real person, but a computer stated someone would be out the next day: couldn’t tell us when. Someone did indeed come the next day, but was an electrician and said he didn’t know anyone who could fix it. Since then we have called someone else who came out today it is on the task. Very disappointed. Maglish had taken care of this force in the past. At this point, I question if the company is still in business.

A very long and winding process to get to this review. Had several issues with my Generac install and the process ended up taking almost 3 weeks, plus the tech the first day accidentally cut my Xfinity line. Through calls to customer service I was able to get my issues resolved and ended up satisfied with the final product and the way they took care of me at the end. Rocky start but they saved the relationship in the end and the generator is great.

Needed an electrical job done for insurance. Our house has been without power for over two weeks. We finally get to a point where we can get a check from insurance, but Maglish will not itemize there estimate and insurance won’t accept it as a flat rate. I called them and said you won’t itemize it to save the job? They said no. They are too big to care! So now we have to start over. Thanks for wasting our time Maglish!!!

Response from the owner · 2 months ago

Hello, We understand your concern regarding the estimate and your insurance company’s requirement for an itemized breakdown. Maglish uses a flat-rate pricing model, which is designed to provide customers with an upfront price for the complete scope of work rather than separating individual labor and material costs. This approach allows us to account for the full service, warranty, labor, and responsibilities associated with the work. That said, we understand that an insurance claim may have specific documentation requirements, and we regret that our estimate did not meet the format your insurance provider requires. This does not mean we do not value your business or the circumstances you are facing. We would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly, better understand what your insurance company needs, and see whether there is anything we can do to help move this forward. Please feel free to contact me directly. Bryant Customer Experience Team 224-856-7971 [email protected]

Nick and Austin came by to replace the hot water expansion chamber for my folks’ hot water tank in the basement. Before they flushed the hot water tank, Nick was professional in explaining things in a very easy to understand way. Quick service with proven results. Totally recommend!

Last winter my generator didn't start for it's weekly exercise, called and their service tech failed to show twice. When he did he spent 5 minutes in the car to determine how to proceed. He came to the door and said i needed a new generator, Ha Ha!. I said get lost. Next day I pulled the battery, is was past due, put in a new one and all was good. Gas line to my generator developed a leak where it met the ground. They want 15K to replace it. Right, first sign! I asked them to run the line on the inside of the house over to where the generator is, they quoted 4200. Paid 2K down payment and asked for a quote on paper. Never received it. They came and ran the new gas line, they quoted it would be a painted line. When I ask why they were not painting it they said we don't do that. I said that is what you quoted. So they discounted the charges. When they were done I ask if they had tested the generator. Of course not, so I tried to start it. No it wouldn't start. They said they would send someone else out. Ugh. I tried to get it to start and did, so I canceled the generator service. Weeks later called and asked if they were sending an invoice, a month after service a got the invoice. Item 1 said furnish and install new gas line for generator. Qty 2.0, $1,702 each. What ? there is only one gas line! Item 2 said cut and cap old gas line running to generator. Qty 1.0 (oh only 1 line ?) 1,023 each. They left the old line uncapped, never cut it, if the valve becomes open the gas flows right out next to the generator. So I called to question the invoice, round and round refused to let me talk with anyone with common knowledge. Then they turn my account over to collections. I would not use ABC ever again!
