I could not be happier with our service. They installed a new drain for our double sink, replaced an expansion tank for our water heater and installed a new laundry sink in the basement which included building a plywood wall to brace the plumbing. Robert was very professional, friendly and took the time to check in with the homeowners about the project. The price was very fair, worth every penny. I will recommend this business to anyone looking for plumbing you can trust.
We had a pump installed a number of months ago, and it unfortunately broke. Fortunately however, we had and amazing experience getting it fixed. The customer service was over the top. This pump was for a church bathroom and Nichols decided to donate the cost labor (probably close to 400$) and just went above and beyond to being about customer satisfaction. We couldnt be more impressed with Nichols, and they will definitely have our loyalty as customers!
Nichols cleaned our sewer line a couple times and let us know we had Orangeburg pipe leading to the sewer that was past its expiration date (that stuff was popular to use after WWII and only lasts about 50 years, so ours was doing well, actually). We saw everything through the scope so all was clear and upfront.They came a while later and replaced our whole sewer line to the street. It was a huge project, but they made it as simple as it could be. Got it done right when they said they would. Team was professional and very careful; asked us at every step about even little things. They curved the line around to avoid taking out some stairs, they carefully packed the earth back down, and then they put down gravel, loam, and seed. Its only been a couple weeks, but you cant tell anything was done now, and it looks as good as new.We were very impressed with the knowledge, skill, and professionalism of the team, the oversight from the main office, the friendly manner from everyone at every point, and how punctual and careful they were. We wouldnt go anywhere else for plumbing service, thats for sure. Highly recommend.
We’ve been Nichols customers for over 20 years. I made an appointment a month ago to have some work done in our kitchen. We waited all day today and at 3pm got a call canceling. Seems like new management can’t get its act together. Can’t believe I have to find a new plumber, but sadly I do.
Since new owners have taken over the work is not done well at all. Needed bathroom shower fixed for a drip. Man shows up and states easy fix. Done in a few minutes and said the drip I was now seeing would quit. Then he stated he had to return to his work place to get something to save me money in the long run. The drip was now a constant flow. Nichols is a two minute walk from my house. An hour later he returns and starts banging on something. Comes out and says I will need another appointment as he now has to cut into the wall. Had me sign a blank form for billing telling me I would get a copy when office called for appointment. This was May 30. No call, no bill. I finally got a call to pay the bill July 25. When I asked why so much .... over 500.00 dollars and the rude caller said I told worker I would get someone else to do it.....I never said that, but with no bill, and no copy I asked for a copy of bill. I would have called them to finish the work but my young son, who had cerebral palsy, died in his sleep. They did take some money off and I got a real plumber to fix it for a lot less. Always used Nichols, but never again. BTW, got a copy of bill today, 7/29/21.
Wow! I simply cannot say enough positive things about Field(s) and Robs work! I am so impressed and happy! I had no water and called several places to try to get help. No one was available or would not be able to service for anywhere between 3 and 14 days. I found Nichols Plumbing in a Google search and gave them a call. Right away, Chad was helping me find solutions to my problem! We scheduled an appointment for 2 days out, then later the same day he called back to see if it was alright (LOL) if they came TODAY! YES! A new well pump and pressure tank later, great conversation and information about the service during the work, I am one very satisfied customer! I will be keeping Nichols Plumbing on speed dial! CALL THEM!
Nichols Plumbing has worked here over the years, mainly on our septic and sump pump drainage systems, and has always done an excellent job. They are responsive, honest, polite and helpful. They stand behind the work they do will also advise against doing work if they dont think it is necessary or helpful
The tech person was very conscious of his time. He didnt comprise the quality of his work tho. He was pleasant and kept me informed throughout the process.I highly recommend Nichols Pumping! Thank you for your professionalism!!
Nothing but positive things to say! Kayla in the office was very pleasant and said it would be a couple of days before someone could come to our home. The next day they had some time so were able to swing by. Rob was professional and took the time to review everything and visually show me what was happening. It gave me the confidence that what he was telling me is what we needed to have done. No run around at all. I also appreciated beforehand they reviewed their COVID policies so it made me feel safe having someone come into our home. Overall, really happy with the service and will definitely be calling Nichols again for all our plumbing questions and needs in the future.
We are using Nichols to handle the plumbing aspects of a bathroom remodel. Todd came to do the walk through and went over what was needed. Of the 3 quotes I got, his was the most comprehensive. He outlined what the code requirements were, included the radiant heat aspects and also covered plumbing line to the washer in the adjacent laundry room. Although the quote was higher than the other two, it provided a complete picture of what was needed (not just a partial solution). We will go with Nichols for this job. Ill update the review after its completed. This is a very professional company (IMO).Update (Mar 18, 2021). As I expected, the work was stellar. Rob was our plumber and we couldnt have asked for a more skilled professional. He did a complete bathroom (tub, vanity, toilet, heat radiator) install and hookups. He also rerouted the laundry room drain line. We couldnt be happier.
We’ve been using Nichols for many years now to repair and help us problem solve a multitude of issue we have had through the years with our pumps and our plumbing at our 2 camps on Pushaw lake. We find all the guys that come out to be fair, honest and professional.
Getchell Bros has had a very long great standing history with NPH and highly recommend their services for any of your needs!They are always responsive, efficient and professional.My own personal experience with them has been 10 out of 10 rating! One of the best locally owned companies with outstanding employees available!
I am SO impressed with the level of customer service at Nichols Plumbing. We were in a bind to get a last minute septic inspection and they accommodated our needs by coming to the house the very next day. Brad was very professional and kind, and clearly knowledgeable. We also needed an estimate done quickly and they rushed to get it ready the very next day as well. So happy with this company and will be recommending them to others!
I had a great experience with a service call when I needed to find out what to do with my kitchen sink Arater parts and to replace the Inlet valve on my washing machine. Chad arrived very promptly, did an excellent job, informed me what was needed and got it done. He was professional, had a great attitude and inspired trust and confidence with his customer service. Nichols Plumbing will be getting business from me in the future, definitely!
When our water stopped flowing, I called Nichols Plumbing & Heating. They arrived at our Hudson home in less than an hour to fix the problem. Nichols Plumbing & Heating provided fast, professional service and has reasonable prices. The crew were knowledgeable, polite and friendly. I highly recommend Nichols Plumbing & Heating for all your plumbing & heating needs.Lisa Nichols
Recently I engaged Nichols Plumbing to replace an aging expansion tank. Chad and his team were timely with all responses setting up my appointment and John and Brad did an excellent job with the installation. I appreciated their attention to detail and efficient approach to their work. Sure I will be set for years but should any other plumbing work be required, Nichols plumbing will be my first call. I would highly recommend them for any of your plumbing needs. Thanks!
Called with an issue with my septic system. Paul and Chris came with everything needed to get it up and running again. They were very nice to deal with, prompt and professional. They got the job done timely and checked the system over while there. I definitely recommend Nichols plumbing!
Nichols has been prompt, informative, and professional in their services at my home and at my work on more than one occasion.
Transparency on cost and service made me feel comfortable with scheduling the appointment. Steve, one of the plumbers, started the morning with a friendly good morning call and continued his friendliness throughout the service call.So very thankful for this business.
A five-star crew with an incredible work ethic and a true understanding of the inner workings of Plumbing. Privileged to call them friends.
Ive used Nichols Plumbing two times and will definitely use them again if the need arises. This time I had a toilet that was constantly running and causing me to have a high water bill. I called and was given an appointment the next day. Later, Nichols Plumbing called and said that they could come that very day. Problem solved. When I have used Nichols, the plumbers have been friendly, yet very professional. As an older lady living alone, it is nice to know such help is available.
Nichols has always been a big help in some not so fun situations. They are readily available and professional.
They replaced a hot water heater. Tech was courteous and efficient. Ordering and service time also great
I had a sewer line that was backing up. Nichols plumbing answered the phone, I didnt have to leave a message and hope for a call back. They were clear about the rates, which were fair. They came the same day as they promised and had my issue diagnosed and fixed in no time. No flat charge, or price for each service, just an inclusive hourly rate. The technician was friendly, courteous, professional. I thought I had a huge headache on my hands and Nichols plumbing bailed me out easy. Im very pleased. Thank you.
Installed a commercial bathroom for a new business. Everything was done when they said it would be. Every tech that came to assist was professional, polite and knowledgeable. Thanks again!
If you would like a company that gives you the run around and never get back to you Nichols is great. Feel free to call the office because the receptionist will tell you no one is there to give you an answer and will take your name and number and no one calls back. Thanks KaylaWas told ten weeks ago someone would come give an estimate by the estimator Brad.Once you put up enough stink and ask for management they have no problem giving an estimate over the phone site unseen and tell you it will be at least 4 weeks. Exactly the answer I was given ten weeks ago. My suggestion is don’t bother believing the commercial as apparently they don’t actually gives those services.Brad the estimator is clearly doing a good job communicating and booking out jobs. If I could give a zero I would have
Very quick and friendly service, but our sale is pending the plumbing/septic report that was done a week ago, and they did not let me know it would take this long to get the results report. We literally may lose the opportunity to buy this home, because we do not have the results from this inspection.
We are very happy having Nichols Plumbing & Heating work on our home. An 1800s home often needs plumbing repairs and updates. Nichols team is helpful and polite, knowledgeable and concerned. I recommend them for plumbing jobs large and small!
I own several apartment buildings and have had my share of unfortunate plumbing experiences. Its a sinking feeling when you get the call that there is, lets call it, black water dripping from the above apartment or filling up the basement. Each time this has happened to me Ive called several local plumbers only to reach voicemail or be told they can get to me in two weeks. That is until I called Nichols Plumbing. Each time they have been very responsive and have made it out to the property within hours. Nichols Plumbing will be my first and only call from now on.
Our experience with Nichols Plumbing was 100% positive. We had an issue with our sewer line which was chronically backing up into our basement about once a year. Unpleasant to say the least! We’d consulted with other plumbers who advised us we’d need to tear up the line and replace it at great expense. Then Steve and Matt from Nichols Plumbing arrived on the scene. They diagnosed the issue (which did NOT require replacing the sewer line), explained it thoroughly to us, and had the problem solved within a couple of hours. Saved us a lot of money and heartache. Honest, prompt, courteous, and competent. Could not be happier with their service. Chad and Kayla, who helped us set up and confirm our appointment, were also super friendly and helpful. Thank you Nichols Plumbing!!!! Your grateful customers, Matt and Leigh in Bar Harbor
The Nichols guys were fabulous. I had to call them because my usual guys had some broken equipment. Pricing was provided up front. They were prompt polite, and professional. Cleared out my backed up drain, provided some suggestions on routine maintenance and how to schedule in advance.
Weve had Nichols do all the work on two houses for many years. Weve always been very pleased by their professionalism and the quality of their work. I happily recommend them.
Very prompt at getting out to do the inspection and provided good feedback.
Prompt and professional service. Excellent workmanship!!!
Nichols is a professionally run outfit. I have used them a couple of times for plumbing needs, and so far am satisfied with the service
Our shower/tub switch knob had broken and water was coming out of both the shower head and the tub spigot when you turned the shower on. He fixed the problem, put new knobs on, and even surprised us with a newer, nicer shower head. Wonderfully pleasant and cheerful service. Thanks so much for the help!
I first had them out on an emergency call when my basement flooded. They came and discovered roots so they cleared out enough to open up drain. Now they returned to completely clear out the roots from my basement drain pipes to where they connect to city lines.
Folks at Nichols explain things thoroughly, workmanship is excellent. I was given two options, both of which were explained, I went with the less expensive!They also clean up after themselves!
They were able to do a leak from an upstairs apartment into a light fixture from a shower drain. The person that came was so kind to me my living space and my animals. He even helped me move the beds so he could have room to work and put them back for me after he was done. Really impressed with the customer service and respect given. Highly recommended
We had to call Nichols twice with a septic problem and they were quick to respond both times. On Friday, June 12, they diagnosed a collapsed sewer line, and by the end of the day on the following Wednesday, permits were obtained, trench was dug, our line was replaced and new grass seed was down! We would highly recommend these skilled workers.
Very responsive! They were there the next day after the call. Showed up with an ole pro and one in training! Which I think is great! Very personable and educational. Very happy with our 1st time with Nichols! Thank you from Winterport on the Lebanon Rd!!!
I had a clog in the drain between my house and the city sewer. After many attempts to snake the drain myself I called Nichols on a Sunday afternoon. I had just returned from Afghanistan. In order to protect their business and employees they were unable to send a technician to my house due to covid concerns. I was disappointed but told them I understood and we ended the call. My phone rang a few minutes later and the technician stated that they did not want to just leave my family in this situation. The technician took the time to discuss other strategies to clear the obstruction. With some solid advice I had a working drain and a happy wife. I highly recommend Nichols as they did not have to to spend a Sunday morning advising this novice.
We’ve used Nichols Plumbing several times. Most recently for sewer issues. They have been very fair and very responsive to our needs. I would call them anytime.
Always prompt and professional. Always go above and beyond for us!
Great service.These people really new how to correct our sewer problem as the system was not in code and pipe installed backwards.I would highly recommend Nichols Plumbing.
My experience was the same as many of the other negative reviews. If they don’t get the job done right the first time, Nichols Plumbing is too big to care.
Exceptional service. The technician diagnosed a problem with my boiler and encouraged me to get it fixed immediately! Probably saved me and my family a lot of money! Highly recommend this professional organization for all of your plumbing and heating needs@
Nicholas Plumbing always does a great job, they always take care of our needs in a timely manner. When they leave a site it is always cleaned up and other then things are back working as they should, you would never know they had been on site. Jake Morgan R.S.U. # 63
This spring we experienced sewer problems, being an elder couple in our 80’s, we had no clue what to do! We found a list of local city approved companies, one of which was Nicholas Plumbing and Heating. We contacted them and they came right over. Once they arrived they evaluated the problem and explained everything to use so we could understand what exactly what had to be done. They also gave us an estimate of $3,500 less than any of the other competitors.They were very professional, showing up on time, and they turned a two-day job into a day job. When it came time to square up they only charged for the work they actually did, which came in $2,000 below the estimate. Meaning we saved about $6,000 going through Nicholas Plumbing and Heating. We would recommend this company to everyone that requires their services. Five Stars!!
After 25 years I find I can no longer recommend Nichols. 10 months, over $7000 of expenses related to being told my leach field needed to be replaced, and an estimated plan costing $20,000 to replace said field, I needed to find someone who would install it as Nichols declined the opportunity. After consulting another firm it was determined that the field was fine except for one pipe being blocked which was easily fixed. Had Nichols done an appropriate I would not have had my life disrupted for 10 months and spent over $7000 unnecessarily. If you are thinking about having Nichols do work for you I strongly recommend you get a second opinion.
Bangor Area Homeless Shelter finds Nichols Plumbing to be prompt, efficient, Knowledgeable and highly competent. We recommend them for any plumbing issue you may have.
My husband called,came over unxlogged our septic very good, not costly we are vety happy with this company
They replaced my sump pump that failed, no charge for pump cuz under warranty. Only cost was labor. They called me back 30 minutes later and said they were dropping labor charges--must have been installed wrong to begin with. Unbelievable! They have gained a lifelong customer. Good work and honest!
Nichols Plumbing responded immediately to my need to relocate plumbing in my camp. They went above and beyond, suggesting adjustments that woud make my system work more efficently. How they got under my camp to rework my system, Ill never know but they were the only ones who did.... AMAZING!!!!!Thanks for making my rebiild everything I wanted. Dont waist you time on anyone else, call Nichols!!!!!
Thank you Nichols Plumbing! Always responsive, thorough and professional. I appreciate your work!
Best in the county.
Should have checked the bad reviews before we called them. We were charged a lot for services not done. They will not refund or credit us. Not a trustworthy company at all. We will never do business with them. Roger was not helpful at all. We still had to have our issue fixed after they came out and said they fixed it. Bad business in my eyes. Considering getting our Attorney involved.
Good job
I tried several plumbing companies in the Bangor and brewer area and I found Nichols plumbing and heating is the best. I definitely will give them a call again if I run into any other heating and plumbing problems
Kind and friendly. Easy to talk to
Great service, professional, knowledgeable. I will definitely call Nichols again.
Best plumbers around!! Highly recommend
As with most plumbing issues, I was faced with an urgent situation. Nichols was very responsive, prompt and kept me informed of what they were doing and what to expect, when.
Nick and the rest of the guys and gals are the best
Great, prompt service
Dishonest and incompetent....do not use Nicholas Plumbing ...the bad reviews and their reputation out there among others in the plumbing industry speaks volume . Their opinion is that theyre the professionals and you do not know what youre talking about .
Amazing food
Prompt and efficient
Very Unprofessional.
Great company,
