Riley Plumbing and Heating has a deeply polarized review profile spanning 2015–2024, with a significant volume of serious negative reviews that drag all four dimensions down substantially. Pricing is the weakest dimension, with multiple reviewers explicitly describing price gouging, inflated estimates, and charges far exceeding competitors — including a $2,700 estimate for work another company completed for $510, and a $10,000 quote for work that turned out to be entirely unnecessary. Project completion is severely undermined by recurring accounts of abandoned follow-ups, missed appointments without communication, incorrectly installed equipment requiring multiple return visits, and at least one case where a furnace was never made to function properly after four follow-up visits.

The positive reviews, while genuine in tone, are outnumbered and outweighed by the volume and specificity of the negative accounts. Read less
