McVay Plumbing has a Master Plumber, Greg that is AMAZING. He made a special trip out to fix a leak before the holidays. He came out in between jobs, not many places would make that happen. All I know is this company is worth it!! The staff/plumbers are nice, patient and the prices are affordable. Happy Holidays McVay Plumbing

McVay was phenomenal in repairing our sewer line - they not only offered a cheaper and better repair than their competition, but they were also very professional and trustworthy. I love giving business to a local company, too. In particular, our team of Jackson, Tyler, and Dave were very professional, communicative, kind and efficient. They wore masks the entire repair. They encountered an unforeseen problem and efficiently resolved it. Further, the front desk is very professional and great at scheduling the repair and communicating when the team will be arriving. I'm so grateful we went with McVay

We have owned our 1947 home for 10 years and our bathroom sink has been sporadically slow for all of them. We have had plumbers in that either temporarily resolved the issue, came up with a solution that didn’t make sense (and rather expensive), or offered to knock down a wall (disruptive and expensive).
I happened to come into contact with McVay through a friend who lauded his experiences. So when it clogged again, there was only one option to try.
The office is congenial and engaging and put us into an appointment that worked well. Communication from confirming the time in the morning through

I have used McVay Plumbing before to put in my tankless water heater and was very pleased with the quality of work. This week I had a small leak in one of my bathrooms. I called McVay for a non-emergency call and they had someone scheduled the next day. Plumber Ian was on time within the scheduled time given and fixed the leak. McVay's cost was a very good value due to the house call and repair. If you are looking and in need of a plumbing company that is responsive and does not overcharge, I recommend you call McVay.

So happy to have found this company. From start to finish, excellent communication and professionalism. Cody and another staff member ( sorry, missed the name!) installed 2 toilets, washer, dryer, expansion tank on hot water heater and a few valves in just a few hours. I didnt even have all the parts for dryer, and they made it happen. Even cleaned up drips of water on floor, so neat. Would HIGHLY recommend this co.

This is the 2nd time we’ve had them do work at our house this year. (First time was a repair, second time was a dye test so we could sell our house.) I HIGHLY recommend them for any and all work you need done.

I would definitely recommend McVay Plumbing for your plumbing needs. Becky was super helpful in scheduling the initial and follow up call to replace parts for a shower. Greg did great work and the shower seems to work better than before.
Quick, friendly, professional, trustworthy would be a few words I would use to describe my experience with McVay Plumbing.

I discovered McVay in 2021 and so happy I did. Used them for drain sewer replacement, hot water tank, gas leak etc, you name it (as I own several rentals). The ladies are amazing and the price and quality of work speaks for itself.
It’s without reservation I highly recommend this plumbing company to anyone in the area! They’re honest, affordable and will get the job done without overcharging!

Couldn't be happier with Mcvays service. Used them when we sold our house and again when we bought. Quotes in both cases much better than the competition. Mike (the owner) sees beyond the buck and has a set of ethics that flows through to the employees.

McVay Plumbing is top notch. If you're looking for a great work done by a very professional company call McVay. Mike is a mad scientist who will get the job done with the least disruption possible to your current structure. Before signing up with them he spoke with me for 30+ mins explaining the whole process of what he does and why they do it this way. I hung up from this conversation with no doubts I had chosen the right company for the job. All the work is completed and I still feel the same way. Seriously just call McVay.

Every time that I call for an issue, they are quick to respond and help. The workers are friendly, won't take advantage of the situation and clean up completely. I can't imagine using any other plumbing service - I found them through a friend's word of mouth. Highly recommend!

I've been dealing with a complex estate situation, and I reside far from Pittsburgh. The folks at McVay have been amazingly helpful, responsive, communicative, and supportive in resolving the requirements of the local municipality to remediate "dye test" failure. They have my highest recommendation and gratitude.

Had a great experience with them today. Ran into an issue while remodeling a bathroom. They actually talked us through the issue over the phone. Sent photos via MMS all to try and save us the money of having to come on site. We still did need them to come on site they were here in about an hour and solve our issue within 25 minutes.

I would definitely use them again.

Two hours before our sewer inspection for a house we are trying to buy, we got a call canceling, with no replacement. We are in town only to do this! What a useless and unreliable service. Avoid these people.

I completely concur with previous reviews about Mike (the owner) and his errors with recollection of events. His recollections or lack there are are oddly convenient and self-serving.

McVay plumbing was recommended to me by our realtor. She specifically indicated to ask for Mike (the owner) to come out and do the work which we did. He came out to our potential new home to conduct a sewer scope test. He was unable to complete the sewer scope test and because the sewer line needed to be cleaned he could only get about 68 ft. in to the main sewer line. He recommended that we have it cleaned

This company stole $100 from us and then would not provide the dye test results. It was arranged by our real estate agent when selling our home in Braddock Hills. We no longer live in Pittsburgh, so we had to trust this recommendation from a distance, as we would not be in town yet for the closing when the dye test was done.

The first tip off should have been the fact that they would not accept credit cards, so there is really no way to get the money back. After supposedly performing the test, they informed the agent "some work would need to be done", but didn't provide any further

I called Mike at the recommendation of one of my neighbors who had used his services a few years earlier, and a Monroeville Public Works employee. We were getting occasional backups of "clean" water from the floor drain in our laundry room. After the latest backup after a heavy rainstorm, a Monroeville Public Works employee checked out the nearby manholes and confirmed that all of their sewer lines were flowing properly. He theorized that groundwater was getting into cracks in the terra cotta drain lines at a greater volume than the root-infested drains could handle, which was causing

My review stands as it was given. Unfortunately there are many errors with Mike's (the owner's) recollection of the events:
1) Our house never failed a dye test. I'm not sure where he's pulling that information from, but when we purchased the house, it absolutely passed the dye test. I have no idea as to why he would add false information.

2) We were NEVER told that the entire line needed to be replaced (I verified this information with my husband in case I missed something). In fact, upon the initial inspection of the line, Mike told us that there was nothing wrong with
