As it turned out, the problem was not what I had originally thought, and I really appreciated that they took the time to explain what was actually going on rather than pushing unnecessary work.

Some of the contractors I had contacted had yet to reply 24 hours after my call or email. Those who did reply were vague as to the time to repair my problems.

He takes everything into consideration: anticipated drywall and cement board, subfloor leveling, fixture locations. If something isn't perfect, he'll work until it is- for his own satisfaction. He is a plumbing wizard, and a good guy to have on a job site. His competent wife handles things behind the scenes, and it's rare to have such frequent, friendly, and value-added communication. When I brought up the sales tax exemption for capital improvements (which is something few people know about), Kelly took it upon herself to call friends and the actual government to clarify the requirements and establish the proper paperwork. With other bids, I stated I would be providing the fixtures, but other bids came in offering their preferred fixtures plus sales tax. You'd think a one-man operation would slow things down, but what I experienced was a plumber who managed every aspect with a critical eye, versus relying on less experienced subs rushing through a job. I still don't know how he managed to perfectly set a 66" bathtub and a 90 lb slate shower base by himself, but Joe is a gentle giant who knows it all when it comes to plumbing. He works independently, and offered suggestions and tips I hadn't considered. He also listens to cool music and carried some heavy things for me after I twisted an ankle without blinking an eye (I'm not proud). Although plumbing isn't the sexiest job out there, once you see how much work he puts in, you'll understand that you're receiving platinum service for what is very reasonable pricing. I received nearly a dozen proposals for a comprehensive and annoying job, and Joe's was the one that included all the details of the work involved, while others focused on upselling fixtures and completely neglecting components of the job. As long as he'll work with me, I won't hire another plumber in OBX.

Heat Pump Service Issue and Billing Concern…read more Background In September 2024, I purchased two new heat pumps from R.A. Hoy. Since I am retired and spend most of my time at home, I do not need to adjust the temperature frequently. Specifically, the unit in question serves the upstairs area, which I rarely visit during the day. Discovery of the Issue In February 2026, I received a service message on my thermostat for the upstairs unit. Upon checking the unit through my app, I discovered that it had been running continuously, 24 hours a day, since mid-November 2025 up until the present date in February 2026. Service Call and Diagnosis I contacted R.A. Hoy for service. The technician identified that the unit was only producing 70-degree air and was one pound low on refrigerant. I also have 2 inspections each year that were reported as good. Electric Bill Concerns Because my electric bill is automatically paid from my bank account and has remained consistent for over 10 years, I had not been monitoring it closely. However, after realizing the heat pump had been running non-stop, I reviewed my bills and noticed an increase of over $100 per month starting from when the unit failed in November 2025. My electric bill is normally lower in the winter as my gas furnace heat my home when temperature is 40 degrees or lower. Concerns Regarding the Repair and Warranty I received a bill from R.A. Hoy for the refrigerant. I believe that, since the leak appears to be a result of the initial installation, I should not be responsible for this charge. Additionally, if this leak is not properly addressed, it is likely to recur annually. However, I was informed that because the issue arose more than a year after installation, it is not covered under the warranty.

They said they could do that and would come by to look over the fireplace and talk about options. The guy arrived about on time, but looked like he slept in the truck. His clothes were a shambles and were covered with dog hair. That on its own was not the main issue. He came in took measurements of the fireplace, looked up the chimney, went outside to look down the chimney with two different drones. Neither one worked. So, then he told us we needed to have the flue treated with a sealant. Did we want him to do that now? And it would cost aboutt 300 bucks. We said forget it. Then. We asjpked about which fireplace insets would work, and he said he would have to talk to his boss And he would call us back. He then presented us with a bill for $195 for the "inspection". He was there a total of 20 minutes, never did see down the flue and had no knowledge about fireplace inserts... Never got a call back. Do NOT hire this company!
