I am writing this review on behalf of my husband who is facilities manager for a high end restaurant group across Manhattan. He uses Buckmiller for six different venues. He had previously used cheaper vendors that were in place when he assumed responsibility for some of the locations he manages. Buckmiller may cost more than some competitors but money and many headaches are avoided by using someone competent and knowledgeable who will avoid violations for your establishment. It's better to pay more for good service than to end up paying a lawyer to fight violations in court. Buckmiller has

We have been using Buckmiller Automatic Sprinkler company for many years for the sprinkler system in our community house. We are very pleased with their maintenance of our sprinkler system and their attentiveness to our needs, as well as the good communication in maintaining our system, and dealing with the intricate legal aspects of this in the city of New York. I highly recommend them.

I have been a customer of Buckmiller Automatic Sprinkler for several years now and found them to be absolutely dependable and consistently attentive to my concerns. I own and live in a brownstone in the Village where they arrive each month like clockwork for sprinkler inspections and all the paperwork required by the NYFD. I recommend them highly.

We hired buckmiller to service our fitness studio's sprinkler systems. When COVID hit, and we were unable to pay our bills, we told buckmiller we would be suspending our service and returning when we reopened. They decided it would be appropriate to call DOB and tell them to go inspect all of our closed studios, at a time when we could not afford to keep the lights on. If I could give 0 stars I would. If I could file a lawsuit, I would. Absolutely disgusting business practices. Choose literally ANY OTHER VENDOR than these crooks.
