fast professional service start to finish. Thank you, Kelly, Jake, and Jordan. I will definitely use Hertel hardware and plumbing again.

Hertel did a wonderful job with our home's plumbing renovations. They replaced galvanized pipes with copper and replaced water tank, and in the process of these repairs, they found other issues which they alerted us to, and fixed them right away. We also hired them to renovate our HVAC system. They were patient with us as we spent a great deal of time looking into various options in terms of energy and cost. The only small issue is that it is sometimes hard to get a hold of a plumber to answer questions, and you are often relaying messages through a receptionist. read more

Had Hertel Hardware and Plumbing come out to look at my girlfriends AC system. Her air conditioner stopped working, during the hottest few days that we've had so far this year.. Been using Hertel Hardware and Plumbing for over 30 years. Their quick response time, the quality of their work is unmatched.. Family owned businesses are the only way to go.. Reputation is what family business relies on, and it shows in the work ethic, and the professional people they hire.. Her AC unit was a simple fix, Victor, their service tech performed a couple of tests, and within minutes figured out that the batteries in the thermostat needed to be changed. Just like that it was running.. Think of what one of the big companies would of done in that situation??? They would of tried to upsell her. Hertel Hardware and Plumbing, Victor, Thank You read more

Sent here from another hardware store for a part. Walking into this store (on Hertel between Traymore and Commonwealth), which I have likely passed a 100 times over the years without going in, could be a little overwhelming. It is crammed full of things. Pretty much anything hardware related is in here somewhere I'm sure. Since I was sent there from the True Value around the corner on Delaware needing a part for a sink drain, I think they may carry more in the drain and drain related parts than the other hardware store did. It looks like they do. This is a case where I am waaay out of my element but trying to buy some things needed for a sink. Second store I have been to for a part. The guy was super nice to me (hence the 4th star), even though it was clear I was in over my head. If you know what you are doing this is the store for you. Its crammed full of all sorts of hardware related things. If, like me, you are not as experienced in this area, and you happen to get the owner to help you, he will do his best. Its local on Hertel, and a mom & pop, you cant beat that. Street parking. read more

Hertel Hardware - Plumbing Near Me - Buffalo, New York

You have to check their work, especially as a landlord, or be on sight while the work is being done. It can be a hit or miss with who you receive that day as a plumber. I have had great work done and work that I had to cancel. My main concern is their customer service can be aggressive and not client friendly. The image provided show the work that was 1/2 way done recently. read more

DO NOT USE I have been waiting for a part for my water heater for MONTHS from them. (small leak) Every time I call they NEVER return my calls. When and if I do get a hold of someone, they "check with the tech" to see if part is in. Finally after waiting WEEKS for "THE PART" a tech came out and low and behold....WRONG PART. "Have to order right part, (piece of piping). It has been going on since December. This back and forth and no communication what so ever is so very frustrating. If they don't want the job they could at least let me know so I can contact a reliable company to fix my problem, instead of keeping me waiting on "ordered parts", which they probably have sitting on their shelf !!!! Horrible Horrible communication skills with this office!!!!! The ONLY reason they got one star was because I had to rate in order to submit this review! read more

We have a 130-year-old house that lost power for 3 days during the Christmas bomb cyclone. We hired Hertel Hardware to repair the damage to our heating system, which ended up being quite extensive. They have been SO WONDERFUL to work with. They are very communicative and reliable, and they have gotten a ton of work done really quickly and efficiently. The crew who has been working at our house has been very considerate in terms of noise, clean up, etc. (which is very much appreciated in a home with two small children). I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for heating or plumbing services. read more

Hertel Hardware and plumbing. Servicemen cleaned our furnace today. Helpful and courteous. Would Highly Recommend.

Keith and Kyle arrived at my parents house to replace the furance and dehumidifier. The first thing that impressed was that they immediately laid down a drop cloth to protect my parent's flooring. When they had to go to the truck to retrieve a part or tool, they did so quietly and did not leave the door ajar but closed it quietly behind them. They were efficient and so polite and patient when my parents asked questions. When they completed the job, they cleaned up after themselves and made themselves available to my parents regarding any additional questions they had. They explained everything that they did and how to maintain the furace and dehumidifier for maximum efficiency. They were very accommodating and respectful in appearance and speech. I highly recommend them. read more

If you want to have a washing machine hose cleaned out for $200. Be sure to call them, otherwise find a reputable Company for your plumbing needs!! read more

Had slow hot water leak in the shower faucet. Charged $800 and left the building with no hot water for a week and a large hole in the wall. Best part is the hot and cold water run simultaneously whenever the shower is on now. Worst plumber ever, I will never use them again. read more

I know the business name is "Hertel Hardware," but they do quite a bit more than just sell tools. For years and years, Hertel Hardware has been my family's source for our plumbing needs. I can plumbers visiting to snake pipes, drain our basement, repair a line out to the street. Agh. Since my buddy bought a property that I've helped manage, I've had to call them myself to deal with frozen pipes, clogged pipes, and recently the diagnosis of whatever the heck was going on that resulted in some severe water damage in the kitchen ceiling. The plumbers who showed up have been personable and professional, explaining each step they were taking, what the causes of the issue are, and what maintenance solutions could be taken to prevent recurrence of said issues in the future. In other words, they've successfully dispelled most of the mystery that so often veils the sphere of plumbing. Most of the times I have needed to call them out have been for emergencies, and they really accommodate such emergencies pretty well, oftentimes pushing and reordering less urgent calls in order to do so. The downside of this practice is that if you are a less urgent call, you can find yourself waiting longer than you expected. When calling to schedule an appointment, you receive a window, not a fixed time... much like Time Warner Cable. Billing is transparent and is now accomplished on site via smartphone, which I do appreciate. Mario and Luigi might still be my favorite set of plumbers, but Hertel Hardware isn't far behind. read more

We have an older house, and a plumber we had in for a drip told us it would take a total reworking of the plumbing, along with the destruction of the subway tiles we like so much. We let it go. Things eventually got worse, and we had Hertel Hardware and Plumbing out on the recommendation of a friend. A personable young man showed up at the beginning of the appointed time (and called ahead, first!), took his shoes off at the door, took some things apart, put them back together, BOOM! fixed. Took about an hour, and no destruction of anything. How grateful we are to find an honest business! read more

Couldn't have asked for a more professional, courteous staff. They answered all of my questions and explained everything they did. Also, incredibly reasonable prices. I have dealt with other plumbers before. I won't call anyone else for my plumbing needs in the future. Jordan and his partner are the best! read more

We had a small drip in the bathroom tub, not an emergency. We called at the end of last week and got an appointment for today (Tuesday) and were given the window of between 11-1. A very personable young man showed up at 10:50 and got right to work. He looked professional with a Hertle Hardware polo on. He took his work boots off at the door and got right to work. The whole job took about 15 minutes, he showed me the part he replaced and explained everything to me. I felt that they charge a fair price and do honest work. We would definitely use them again. read more

These guys are awesome...as good as it gets! Woke up to find my furnace had stopped working overnight. Was getting ready to go out of town the next day...so really needed to get it fixed. I called Hertel Hardware, and within an hour of my call, the furnace repair expert Jason (and he really WAS an expert!) had diagnosed the issue, and went to retrieve the needed part. All told...less than 2 hours from the time I called to the time my furnace was once again blowing hot air. I've used these guys for years, and today just reinforced why. Speedy, courteous service, reasonably priced, by people who care. Thanks Hertel Hardware...once again, you've really delivered! read more

Called to inquire about service. Woman gave me a price range of $180-$400 to fix a water shut off. I asked if she could narrow that down, then she started yelling and hung up on me. Lost my business forever read more

Horrible. Didn't know what they were doing. Nearly ruined my boiler system. I called the manufacturer of my boiler and described what hertel hardware was proposing and they told me not to let them near it and they referred me to someone that helped me out. read more
