A customer of mine needed to replace his backflow assembly at his home. I recommended Anctil Plumbing. Jeff and his crew came out and took care of my customer, offering him an amazing price and fast service. Call these guys for your plumbing needs!

Anctil Plumbing was great! Fast, knowledgeable, and they did a great job fixing the pipes I broke when trying to install the new water heater myself. 21yr old water heater would of course have brittle T connections in the wall. Thanks for saving me!

Anctil plumbing is great. They were referred to us by a neighbor who is a retired plumber. They have replaced the drains in both our bathrooms and then replaced our kitchen faucets. They come in, get the job done and tidy up after themselves. No issues whatsoever. The bills have been pretty much what they estimated up front.

Several years back I had hired Anctil as a subcontractor for a remodel of two of my bathrooms. One morning I noticed a young plumber standing in my dining room. I was wondering what he was doing there as the job was not in that room, so I went over and just started chatting with him. He seemed a bit startled when I approached.
Through the conversation he told me he was an apprentice and had only been with the company for a few months. He was only in his early twenties, so no surprise.
Later that evening when my sister who lived with me at the time came home, she immediately noticed some of her jewelry missing, very expensive jewelry that my parents had given her over the years. She is extremely organized which is why she noticed so fast. Unfortunately, that spot was right across the hall from one of the bathrooms that was being remodeled. You also walk by that spot coming and going from the other bathroom.
Both of us flashed back to that incident that morning and the odd, guilty behavior we noticed.
I called Anctil the next morning and told them what happened and just asked that they ask the guy if he took it, and if so, that he simply return it, no questions asked.
The owner (Anctil) got heated with me. He lied to me and told me he had worked for them for fifteen years and he knew him extremely well. I tried to explain to him that it would have meant he hired him when he was under ten years old. Once he started to defend him and lied to me about him, I told him I didn’t want them back. I hired another plumber that day to replace Anctil.
THIS is what he said to me, in an evil sounding tone of voice. He said that if I said anything, or reported it to the police he would rip my sister’s reputation apart.
Now, my sister might have a skeleton or two in the closet like most people, but she also has a heart of gold and it doesn’t change the facts. The reason she was living with me was to nurse me back to health after a spinal cord injury. She lived with me and did so much for me over two years. I’m very proud of her and glad a have such a kind and caring sister.
Next, she moved in with my parents to help as my mom was dying of cancer. She helped my mom by taking over all the chores and doing anything my mom and dad needed of her. After my mom passed she stayed to help my dad. Eventually she helped him pass as well. She was and is an absolute godsend to our family. We have no idea how we would have done everything she did for them. All while working as well.
Months after my sister moved out of my place, about two years after the incident, I was oiling my dining room furniture. I began taking some bowls down off of a high shelf, and there, inside one bowl, was the missing jewelry! That bowl happened to be right next to the spot where I noticed that plumber oddly standing that morning some time ago.
My guess is that when we saw him there he must have ditched the jewelry as to not get caught after we walked away. I asked my sister if she could have left it there, she said she never takes her jewelry off anywhere but in her room where she can put it where it belongs. I absolutely believe her. It made no sense for it to be there, unless it was ditched.
I honestly can’t swear that anyone tried to steal her jewelry. It’s not a fact, just a very strong, educated opinion. That isn’t the point of this review. The owner threatening to bring harm upon my sister is absolutely disgusting. This has bothered me for years and I just can’t hold it in anymore. There is no integrity in that disgusting “man”.
Let the chips fall where they may. Does Anctil want to drag my sister through the mud? Does he want to drag me through the mud? Judging from his character he displayed on the phone that day, probably. I guess we’ll see. Evil people get one star in my book, none if that was possible. -
If communication and being able to count on a company are important to you, don't waste your time with Anctil. They don't return phone calls. After wasting several months trying to follow up with them after they gave an initial consultation, I had to call another company. However, I am SO glad I went with a different company, because they gave a much more thorough assessment and identified some pretty major issues that Anctil completely missed.

While the problem was ultimately fixed, it took three trips to get the job done. We were charged 3.25 hours to replace a bathroom faucet handle. We will not go back.
-
Anthony and the crew were extremely helpful in fixing our facet and plumbing issue. They also went above and beyond and contacted the manufacturer for us and we were able to get a no-cost replacement part from them as a courtesy.
-
We regularly have Anctil service our furnace and air conditioner and had it scheduled but two days ago realized our AC wasn’t working. They came out and fixed it yesterday and took care of the maintenance as well. Great service!
-
They were scheduled to do a bunch of plumbing for me a couple years back. They called and said the guy was stuck in another state couldn't make it back to do the job. And they would call me to reschedule. This was a pretty big job. Couple thousand dollars. They never called back. Very unprofessional I would never contact them again. After reading some reviews recently I'm really glad they canceled! 😊
-
Jose and James installed my new furnace and they were great! They explained what was involved and were very professional in all aspects of the installation. I highly recommend them.

This is second time I have used Anctil Plumbing and they keep showing me why they are my primary plumber. Randy showed up when expected and did a wonderful (and thorough) job of addressing the issue. Randy explained what he was going to do beforehand and then afterwards thoroughly showed me what he did and why. Anctil's service is always exceptional and service technicians really know their business. I will continue to use Anctil for all plumbing.

Unfortunately had a terrible experience with Anctil. Their guys stole 2x4s from our project, left the project partially done and took us a dozen calls to get them out to finish after we’d paid them. When there were issues they ghosted us. I liked their quote guy but would highly recommend not recommend them for integrity of making things right with their work. They won’t do it.
In response to their comment below. Not only did they not finish the job but when we went to install the hot water heater they roughed in for us they hadn’t installed any drain for it and then turned around and blamed us. When we asked them about it they sent us their legal contract explaining how they are liable for nothing. -
I hired Anctil Plumbing as they were recommended to me from a former Habitat for Humanity construction supervisor who had overseen their work on past Habitat projects.
We are in the middle of major renovations to our Portland home and hired the Anctil team to replace all of our exterior hose bib plumbing, add a water pressure regulator to our source water line, and replumb our water heater. They were friendly, efficient, and the outcome was excellent.
We did find a small leak in our finished water heater plumbing after they had finished the job. With one call they sent out a team member the next day and repaired the leak.
I'd recommend their services. -
Always can rely on Alchemy to be the most professional people to work on my house. They truly think of everything and put me at ease knowing the take excellent pride in their work.

Professional and efficient

Alex and Brody from Alchemy Plumbing were great. This was a simple service call. I did use Alchemy before with an exterior faucet that cracked during the freeze of 2000. I feel very comfortable with Alchemy and will call them for any future plumbing needs.
-
5 stars! Aleksey and Spencer did a fantastic job installing a new water heater for us. Nice guys too. I would highly recommend Alchemy Plumbing, if you want the job done right and quickly.

As a general contractor, I’ve worked with a lot of plumbing companies, and Alchemy Plumbing really stood out. My tenant’s water heater went out late Friday afternoon, and they responded quickly, showed up when they said they would, and handled the replacement without any hassle.
They got the new unit installed efficiently and had hot water restored for my tenants the same day, which I really appreciated. Their pricing was fair and reasonable, especially considering the timing and urgency of the situation.
Professional, responsive, and easy to work with—I’d definitely use them again and recommend them to others. -
Here on time. Very courteous. Worked efficiently. I would call on them in a second.
