Don Ranieri Plumbing & Heating HVAC

My mother's furnace stopped working on the coldest day of the year so far!! I called many companies but Don personally came to her house and helped her out. He recommended a company to work on her Lennox system and called in the evening to make sure she had heat!! Thank you so much. Definitely highly recommend!!

Don Ranieri is a very reliable person when it comes to servicing furnaces. When your furnace breaks and you have no heat, prompt service is very important. He treats the consumer fairly and has an entourage of service people on his team if he needs remote assistance while on a job. I would recommend him highly.

We paid for Don to replace a leaking pipe and install a new shutoff. We had similar work done at our vacation house in CT. Very similar price, but the one in CT was done on an emergency basis, plumber stayed for 4 hrs until job completed. This was also on a day where he was getting dozens of other calls, but he stayed to fix our leak. Don came on Fri at 3:30 and said it was too late for any fix, so after 25 min, just left and shut off our hot water to all our bedrooms until he could come back. Finally, by following Friday it was fixed, after 4 trips total here while he and his helper brought stuff and made excuses each time why he couldn’t finish the job, all while I had no hot water to my bedrooms. I had to have my sister come and let him in, take one day off work myself, and come home early another day. He seems to think people are fooled into paying more $ for more trips, but I would have been happier if he fixed it the first time. Doesn’t understand dual working couples, wasted what precious little vacation I have. Not again!!!

Don Ranieri Plumbing has been the worst, most incompetent plumber to deal with. Do not ever use him!! He is shady and unwilling to admit when he makes mistakes - and his mistake has cost us thousands. He installed a stainless steel water heater in our home a few months ago. Our glass lined water heater lasted 17 years and gave us no problems until it started tripping our electrical panel. We knew it was probably not going to last much longer so Don suggested replacing it now versus waiting for it to go completely - which made sense to us. He replaced it with a stainless steel that was purchased from F.W. Webb. However, the stainless steel components don't react well with our hard water. We have had to have the internal units replaced twice now in the past 2 months. FYI - we have had NO issues with our hard water. Don has stated that he's not a water guy so it's not his problem. He also told me that to solve this problem, I needer to install a whole house water filtration system ($1300 - $1800). The manufacturer has admitted to us that Don made a very bad judgement installing a stainless steel water heater for our home. He should have stayed with the glass lined unit and we would not have had these problems. Don has been rude, dismissive and unwilling to work with us to get this resolved. Please, do NOT work with him!! You don't know what you're getting!

Dependable, trustworthy, and full of great life experience and wisdom!
