Our water main started leaking pretty badly in our basement. After calling many places, we decided to go with Messina. Adam was very competent, understanding, prompt, and skillful. We got a quote on day and the next(today) we had water again and no leaks. And while he had to dig up the front yard, it was done with great care. Thank you again! Weve already recommended Messina to several people.

Ben did an excellent job installing the part I bought for my boiler (on a Sunday no less). Would highly recommend this technician and Charles Messina for any HVAC work.

Messina Plumbing was recommended to me so we called them for a toilet replacement. Dan was professional and friendly and did an outstanding job. The price was very reasonable and we will be using Messina for all future needs.

AC went out on the day we bought our home. They were able to come out within 24 hours. Found a capacitor broken in one of the units. He was able to replace it and the AC was back on shortly after. Great service and the technician was awesome.

Messinas tech Ricky was awesome. I told him what was happening and he had things fixed in no time at all. He was very friendly. Office handled call pleasantly and got me scheduled for a visit as soon as possible. I have been using Messina for several years and have been extremely pleased with their continued service.

My tech Jerry was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and concerned about my plumbing issues. He explained his approach and All technical details in a way I could understand. All issues were resolved efficiently and timely. Thank you Messina and especially Jerry.

If you are in Rehoboth area, cant recommend Messina enough after years of working with them..from the office staff (Kayla) to the plumbing and HVAC team, they are always prompt, courteous, and thorough. Folks like Richy and Jerry always go beyond expectations.

The entire staff is outta this world. Adam came out, found the problem and saved me 1500.00 on the repair. Honest and very dependable. I highly recommend giving them a call and letting them help you out on your next plumbing emergency.

Weve had services from all components of Charles Messina in the past few years. Weve recommended their services to countless people, as a result of our satisfaction. Jerry has become a staple for many of the plumbing issues needed for our family. Very respectable and established professional group. Thank you for being there for us.

What an amazing experience I had with Adam and the Messina crew. I was in a tough spot and didn’t know what to do. But Adam showed up and had me completely set up and ready to go. I’ve known the Messina group for over 30 years and I am so happy with what they were able to do for me. Thanks Adam and Danny

Messina is top notch. I use them for EVERYTHING! These people are knowledgeable, friendly and the epitome of professional. Special shout out to Jerry Delli Paoli!! Five stars aren’t enough to rate them. Charles Messina PLEASE do not sell out to someone like FF Furr!

Review 13 (2024-04-12 - Rating: 5)
We have used Messina Plumbing twice for help w/our recently purchased home. Jerry Delli Paoli is our plumber & he is EXCELLENT. 1st time he came, he fixed 4 pressing problems, inspected the entire house, & made me a list (in order of importance) of issues I should address in the future. All this was for 2hrs labor. This 2nd time took longer, but I knew what was going on all the time, & the work turned out really well.

Charlie and his organization are top notch. He hires great people that are skilled and professional. We have been dealing with Messina and company for many years. He does not forget the importance of good customer service.

UPDATE - 3/14/23So even though it was mild this winter in comparison to others, at least so far......it was still cold, and we still used gas for heat, hot water, and electricity. I also had the last of the new windows installed, and even though the house is not air-tight, it is MUCH MUCH better than before. I have to say that with these three major undertakings (New HVAC, New Hot Water Heater, and new windows,the heating costs have gong down, not quite by half. Keep in Mind that gas had gone up as well. The New unit has worked flawlessly and the upstairs is getting air flow like never before. Thanks for a great job Team Messina! And thank you also Window Guy! You know who you are!Received several Quotes for work to be performed. Pricing was close to in the middle of the quotes. Met with installation supervisor, walked through the job and discussed needs, space, etc. Discussed options for system and decided on equipment based on my experience, and recommendations of Messina. coordination was made ahead of time for access, start times, etc. No surprises - no extras, no unforeseen conditions. Installation took all day, as planned, and upon completion area was cleaned up. Messina showed how to work equipment, helped with WIFI installation for new thermostat, and showed how that worked as well.This may sound like a commercial - but.....I wanted to thank you so much for the quick follow up on this. I also wanted to let you know again how much we appreciate Ben and his team for a great job at our home. They not only did a great job with installation, but also provided education on the system as well.It wasnt cheap, but not many good things are. Talk to Messina if you need to have a new system, or part of it installed/repaired. They will explain your options, and do it well. The rest is up to you when you do your comparisons. Make sure to look at more than the cost - look at the quality of equipment, installation, and service.Team Messina provided great equipment, clean installation and professional service for us at our home.Thank you and here’s looking forward to many years of service.

As an elected official I am normally reluctant to endorse a specific business. Messina is an exception. They inspire trust and do damn good work. Dover City Councilman Fred Neil.

Great experience, I am a single homeowner & I used Messina for all HVAC/Heating maintenance. I can always count on them to do good job that they do.

Adam came out and got our main water line replaced with ease. Truly saved the day and the work was phenomenal. Would recommend them to anyone we know!!

Review 19 (2022-08-11 - Rating: 5)
Our upstairs AC unit died. Another company came in and immediately tried to upsell me to an $18,000 new unit when this one was only used for four years max. From the moment I contacted Messina they went out of their way to quickly respond and triage the problem which was a blower motor. Unfortunately, they said the part was expected in two to three weeks so I would have to wait. They then called me back in less than a week and said they were able to get the part in quicker and were at my house the very next morning. All fixed and all cool! I really respect the communication, honesty and care that they have shown our family. I will definitely be using them again for other projects!

My problem was handled professionally, quickly and for a reasonable cost. They are definitely my plumbers of choice.

Review 21 (2023-11-29 - Rating: 5)
So far so good. The employees so far are very professional, they explain any issues they find and will continue to explain until I get it (if complicated) or if i have more questions. They have fixed issues where other companies said, there wasnt an issue.. So, for now, I am keeping them on speed dial.

From my first phone call, with Mary, I received excellent service. Two very well qualified plumbers came to my home. They were professional, courteous and took their time to explain my repair options. Messina has a new customer for life. I highly recommend them.

Review 23 (2021-08-25 - Rating: 5)
We were so pleased with the initial visit of the electrician, that we scheduled additional projects we needed to have done. Once again, we were very satisficed with the electricians level of knowledge, courtesy and ability to complete the job quickly and efficiently on his second visit. Pricing was fair and the quality of work worth every penny! We have no reason to look any further when we need electrical work done in our home. From the Receptionists to the Electricians were are very satisficed customers. No more leaving messages on a cell phone to people who never call you back. Thanks to all on the Messina team!

Water line break between street and house. City turned off water the morning of July 3rd. Called several plumbing contractors..A couple said they were not able to help but three were willing to stop by and evaluate. Adam Pritchett from Messina stopped by within an hour of my call. He evaluated and was able to provide a written estimate within 45 minutes of his visit. To my astonishment his estimate included start and completion on the same day. He arrived with all required parts and proceeded to replace the main supply line to my house. He had to remove several shrubs and work around a fence but he accomplished the task in about 8 hours. I could not have been more pleased with the outcome. Only about 12 hours elapsed from the time the water was cut off until service was restored. I knew that the job would be relatively expensive, but I thought the cost was reasonable. My Fourth of July holiday was much better than I had anticipated as a result of Adams hard work. If all of the Messina employees do the same level of work, they should be in business for a long time. I was impressed!!

Had 2 toilets installed today and the technician, Chris was wonderful!!! Prompt, polite, knowledgeable, worked quickly and cleanly. Will ask for him again, as I will be using your company again. The office girl was also outstanding; very helpful, and understanding. Will recommend this company to anyone.

I am so glad we found This company! I am amazed at the wonderful customer service. Adam was sent out to us and I know that he fit me in to a busy schedule. I could tell right away that my horrible situation was about to see a light at the end of the tunnel. Not only was Adam honest, genuine and super nice but he quoted me $1000 less than the company I had come out before finding out this company. He came out right away and realized the work did not even need to be Done and if anything else was to arise that he is only a call away. No sales pitch, no unnecessary charges. He even shoveled my steps! I can’t say enough good things about Adam & his company. Thank you so much for everything.-Alyssa Morgan

They replace both outside spigot, pipe in basement, and shutoff valves. Professional and reliable work. Patiently answered questions. Charge was reasonable. Definitely can recommend.

I had both Kenny and Phil out to our house to look at some electrical work we needed done and to take a look at the house we just purchased. They were both very knowledgeable of their respective fields. We are waiting on the electrical quote back but their prices for yearly HVAC service are reasonable and they gave helpful advice. I would definitely recommend all of their services.

I have been using their service since 1998 for my business electrical work. Great family oriented company w/ great service. Very Reliable,on time & fare charges. I feel very comfortable dealing w/ a company which runs like good old time by family unlike big companies. They are first on my list & I highly recommend them.

Charles Messina was the fifth HVAC company to come to my home to diagnose why I was having 700 dollar electricity bills. Charles came onsite personally with his engineer and spent 5-6 hours troubleshooting my system all as part of their investigation, charged me their standard investigation fee, and told me exactly what my problems were. They were the first company to diagnose my air handler as the root cause of the problem and after several visits, one taking over 14 hours, they resolved the problem. My bills are now literally 1/4th of what they used to be and the work was charged at a very competitive rate.Reliable, dedicated, and thorough, Ill be recommending Charles Messina to all my friends and family for their HVAC, plumbing, and electrical needs.

What can I say but Wow! Fast, friendly and professional customer service. Like anyone who has a leak in their house, I was in a slight panic. They sent someone out and quickly addressed the problem. I hope to have no other plumbing problems in the future, but if I do I know who I will call. Thank you so much for helping in my time of home owner crisis.

I recently needed an old sewer line replaced at a home in Salisbury, MD. I spoke with 8 plumbers but unfortunately due to the depth of the line (12), no one was willing to take it on. During the process a plumber gave my info to Adam @ Messina Plumbing.Even though the home is out of their usual service area, Adam still took the time to call me and offer ideas and suggestions. Such a pro! And extremely knowledgable!Where most people wouldnt take the time, he gave me his cell number to call him with followup questions.His ideas led me to finding the right company that could do the job.I can tell you that after working with 8 other plumbers, Adam at Messina Plumbing is definitely a 5-star standout!
