Joe is my hero. My man came and immediately diagnosed and fixed the shoddy work performed by a different plumbing company and did a truly spectacular job. Every time he emerged from the bathroom he greeted me with a huge smile and reassuring progress reports. Request him for your next job, you won't regret it.
We were very pleased, besides coming out in such a short notice he was on time and installed our new toilet & shut off. I would recommend Silco to family and friends if they should need a plumber.
The Silco team repaired a complicated plumbing problem in my home that lead to the main drain. They were highly skilled, professional and diligent about staying with the problem until it was resolved! Addtioionally, they were very personable thoughout the completion of the job.
Silco Plumbing is the real deal for all your plumbing and heating needs! You’re are definitely guaranteed satisfaction. The company is dedicated, dependable and professional in working with you. I have consistently call on Jerry and his team - installed my boiler, heating and cooling systems. Special shout out to Joe! The best!!!
I had a great experience with Silco. Technician Joe Pilla was outstanding. He was informative and professional. I would recommend Silco to anyone with Furnace issues or needs
We hired Sico for an emergency service and they had a tech arrive in less than an hour. Jerry was very helpful and made our emergency top priority. Their service was top notch, and price was very reasonable. We at Aspen Environmental are very grateful for their prompt repose, and they will be our first call when we have a pluming issue. Can't say enough good things about Jerry and his crew.
Had a water heater breakdown. Connor Joseph addressed addressed all my questions and concerns patiently and pointed me in the right direction. I would definitely recommend silco and especially Connor!
We’ve had Silco work on our HVAC three or four times since moving to the area in 2022 and every time, including Connor replacing a capacitor in an AC unit today in the middle of a heat wave, the service has been outstanding. Extremely quick response time, quick but careful diagnostics, and great explanations of repair/replace options. The guys are friendly, professional, and efficient - highly recommend.

Very good experience with Silco. Nico D.arrived right in time and got right to work. Pleasantly we need no other repairs or replacement. I called Silco following a "you gotta replace the furnace"" bad call by a National firm. That firm never followed up on the replacement call,made me suspicious. Thanks Silco and Nico Ducette.
