Best Businesses in Massachusetts

Big blue is a rare find! I had an air conditioner unit that did not work (not installed by Big Blue). Big Blue went out of their way and invested an incredible amount of time and effort to fix the problem. It took them a while because the problem was complicated and while 99% of contractors would have walked away 1/3 into the process, Kevin and his incredible team including Dave and Donna stuck with me. Kevin is not what you would expect from a traditional contractor -- he is professional, able to explain complicated technical facts to a lay person and will do everything to make things right for you as a customer. Dave is an accomplished technician who never gives up until he finds the source of the problem. Donna who will take your calls and schedules the appointments is reassuring and a wonderful communicator.  You will not find another company like Big Blue that not only delivers on their promises but goes above and beyond.

The perfect plumber.

A true one man operation! You call and leave a message and he shows up at your house a little later. No appointments, no fuss, and when you need a plumber that's what you really want. He is pleasant, skilled, and fast.

Plus, he has an old school New England accent (baaauth room) and wears classic overalls.

Greg is a really great guy. He is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and has reasonable rates. He has responded to our home at off hours during emergencies and taken care of our seasonal maintenance for several years now. Our family highly recommends him!

Jerry is the best plumber I know.He and his workers are very prompt,clean and very freindly.No matter what the proplem is they take very good care of it.He does care about his customer's.He provides the best quality service.Anyone who knows Jerry or has used his plumbing services.Has nothing but good to say.He aways does his best to keep his customer's happy and safe.Like his shirts sayA PLUMBER THAT YOU CAN TRUST WITH YOUR HOUSE KEYSVery good service.

Summary: Hired Angel for all of our plumbing needs and have no regrets. Highly recommend. I will continue to use his services for any plumbing issues in the future. Perfectionist professional, detail-oriented and conscientious. Great customer service. Responsive and helpful. Always wore a new surgical face mask, fitted properly, during the whole time indoors. He understood that I had to keep the windows open and no A/C on for coronavirus-precautions and kept working diligently despite the summer humidity and heat. Brought his own booties (new ones) each time to keep the house clean.

This one might be basic but it's important and hard to find sometimes - Angel worked efficiently and respected my home so that nothing was dirty or damaged when he was done working in the work area. I've had other horrible people work in my home before and they'll ding or scratch other stuff while they're working and never clean up the work area when they're done too.

Details: I had major plumbing work done by Angel in my house. Over a holiday weekend, I had a leaky supply pipe in the bathroom that caused a ton of damage and needed extensive work. Angel was texting with me within the hour of my requesting service (through his website first) to assess the situation and recommended an emergency repair (that I could do while I waited for him to show up on the next business day) so that we could stop the water leak ASAP without having to lose running water in the entire house. Then he took care of the necessary pipework as well as the repairs and completed the job in as few trips as possible (i.e., minimal water shutoff - which is important. Imagine living without running water for anything longer than a day. I can't, first-world problems.) Angel was willing to come at the end of the day so that we could have most of the day with running water and then it would be shutoff to let the pipe glue cure overnight. So much easier on us and considerate of Angel to do that, instead of scheduling us at his convenience like other plumbers might do.

In case you'd like to know, the entire process needed some new piping, toilet removal and reattachment, vanity removal and a new installation, as well as all new hardware that would accompany these fixtures. (I also needed wall repair and countertop work, for which Angel recommended other professionals and I was very pleased with their work too.)

Additionally, unrelated to the problem, I had a faulty kitchen faucet that wouldn't dispense hot water like it used to, and Angel easily diagnosed the issue and replaced it with a new one. Similarly, I had a faulty drain assembly that was slowing down the water in another bathroom sink and Angel took care of that in a few minutes too.

Lumped all that work with reasonable rates. Very happy with my experience overall. Highly recommend!

Received a return call from some rude lady to schedule a heating service. Worst attitude like they're the only plumbing company in MA. I'd rather not deal with that.

Excellent service!

My kitchen sink was clogged up and my disposal broke. I called Wayne on a Saturday at 8:30am and he was at my place shortly after 10! He diagnosed the problem and replaced the disposal. At each step, he explained what he was doing and why it needed to be done. His prices were reasonable too. I strongly suggest using South End Plumbing should the need arise!

Heard of this company on a neighborhood feed.  Spoken of very highly by several folks.  Had a plumbing issue and called Monday morning.  Dave showed up the next day.  Replaced a 26 y/o frozen shower valve with a brand new one and was here and gone in 45 minutes.  As nice and knowledgeable a fellow as you could want.  Just got the bill.  Very fair.

1)  Quick response
2) Super qualified and nice guy-tradesman
3) Immediate and perfect repair
4) Completely reasonable bill

Am I missing something?

Recommended by a local chimney sweep who said they use Scott Robillard. Needed repair of a burst pipe. Left a message, and was called promptly back. Scott was courteous on the phone, scheduled a time for service, and gave me a 'ballpark' estimate for anticipated work.

Kyle showed up on time for the repair. He located the pipe quickly (behind a wall), and talked me through the repair. He cleaned up nicely afterwards, and tested everything out. Before he left, he gave me suggestions for insulating the pipe area that froze. The actual cost was lower than expected.

I'm dubious about using repair professionals without a referral, and I felt reassured with Scott and Kyle. I'm happy to recommend them.

Brian came the same day as I called for service. Had the repair done promptly.  I definitely recommend Damaso Plumbing and Heating

Great job - quick response, on-time and on-budget.

Mario came to look at my request for a second water meter without charging a fee.
He described the options available, with cost estimates for each.
He spent the time needed to do the job properly, which then easily passed inspection.

I'm very glad to have found Hinchey Brothers Plumbing, thanks to other positive yelp reviews. I've had them out for 2 projects now. One was a simple outdoor spigot replacement, and the other was a (semi emergency) bathroom remodel. With short notice, Mike came in 1st thing in the morning to remove a leaking toilet flange, the vanity, and capped the pipes. After the new tile floor was laid down, he came back right one time, and worked hard throughout the day to replace the toilet and flange, replace all the shut-offs in the bathroom, put the vanity back in, and even replace the main water shutoff with a new ball valve. THANK YOU MIKE for your hard work! And Thank you Hinchey Brothers for being able to come out and get my tenants bathroom back to them as fast as possible.  As a new homeowner, I'm thrilled to know you're close by.

10/2018 update:
Bill at Hinchey just replaced 2 boilers and 2 hot water tanks in my house. His work was impeccable! Meticulous! I'm beyond impressed with the quality of the installation. Ken, the owner worked closely with me to ensure the project fell within the guidelines in order to receive the MA Save rebates. A+ experience once again.

Have to give Eric C. Foster Plumbing a 5 star rating for today. Another local company canceled on us at the last minute. We called around to a few places. Eric C. Foster got back to me right away and had someone at my house within two hours. Corey and his apprentice, Tony, did great work. They hooked up our new gas stove and dishwasher in no time. They were friendly, clean, and very reasonably priced. We will only be using Eric C. Foster from now on!

Call this company because I needed a water heater replaced they came on time and did a
Great job a highly recommend this company great service

We called them for a long-term leak under our sink and they came the same day. Fixed it completely and price was very reasonable. They will be our go-to plumbers for sure.

In the past few weeks, I've had a faucet replaced, air conditioner repaired, water heater installed, and we're working on the humidifier. So I have lots of experience with Barrell. They are honest (another company gave me an estimate to replace equipment that wasn't broken). The air conditioner needed a minor part replaced, and they had the work done within a couple of hours, for way less than I was expecting. Very impressed.

I had a clog in my sink and wasn't from the area so I needed to get someone out here fast. I took to Yelp project and one of the options was MacCo Services and boy am I lucky it was them. They responded quickly, were able to get someone out to meet me really quick and they did an awesome job. The sink was cleared and I haven't had an issue since.

Couldn't have asked for better service and or better value! Saved me both time and money.

Though you may receive good service, you will pay through the roof, and then if you seek feedback on why the cost is so high, the owner will yell at you and berate you.  

The service provided by Andrew Fodera, the plumber who provided my service was great. He was on time, respectful, answered questions and very helpful. However, you will pay through the roof for the service.  Andrew came to my home twice for no more than an hour each time to assist with a leaky kitchen faucet and continuously running toilet.  I was informed I needed to replace the kitchen faucet and he adjusted the chain in the tank and tightened some bolts.  Andrew returned to install a new kitchen faucet that I had already purchase.  The total for the two visits $791.96.

Feeling this was very high for two hours of work, I contacted Ron Pescatore to inquire about the bill and understand the charges. Only to have him yell at me on the phone and ask me repeatedly what I thought his time is worth.  I indicated that I expected to pay a reasonable hourly rate, but am very surprised at 2 hours of time for the work provided totaled nearly $400 an hour.  He continued to yell over the phone about the cost of his trucks and time to drive to my home stating more than an hour to drive each way.

Be advised, you are paying for labor, owners time to coordinate, drive time and god knows what else.  I take responsibility for not getting a cost estimate prior, I have learned my lesson.

I will pay my bill, but I would recommend that no one hire this company, given the high prices and the treatment you may receive from the owner if you reach out to better understand the cost.  Just know that with this company, you will pay through the roof for basic plumbing needs.

I usually read reviews before I call a company but I didn't this time cause it was an emergency. we had no heat on the most coldest day in feb 2015 . he took 5 hrs to get here. looked at my furnance said it was filthy with dust blew a little dust out w his mouth and said we needed a new furnance cause we hadent  been keeping up w maitnance. bottom line he charged me $182.00 for ten min of work. took out my filter and said it was filthy and didn't replace it he said they don't carry filters anymore. you would think for that price I would of gotten a filter. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY he did fix it though and I don't need  a new furnance this place sucks
