Best Plumbing Services in Boston, MA

This is a delayed review from service I received in February of 2014 from Big Blue;  This was the really bad winter we all remember and my gas boiler went out on a Friday of one of the coldest days of the year.  I could not get anyone to come out to look at my boiler;  Big Blue did come out Saturday and replaced the igniter.   It was not a huge job but they get 5 stars for showing up when no one else would!!!

Follow Up:  I hired Big Blue to replace my furnace and water heater this summer and they did a fantastic job!!  They put in a great furnace and an indirect water heater and the price was reasonable based on numerous other quotes I received from other plumbers.  Now we have plenty of hot water and the heat seems to work much better, very quiet and even heat distribution.

Maybe they're good, I wouldn't know. Called twice and left voice mails, a week apart, never got a call back.

I asked Gregg to come to my home because I wanted him to install a new gas cooktop and also do some plumbing repairs around my home. He came by, took a look, and said it did not look like a difficult job. Gregg told me to call him after I bought the cooktop. We never discussed any prices. I have had Gregg do some work at my home in the past and he was always top notch in every way.
Two weeks later when the $1700 cooktop arrived, I called and then emailed to Greg asking when would be a good time for him to do the job. He never replied. Phone calls, email, text messages. All were never responded to. Very strange. If he decided he did not want to do the job, I think the professional thing to do would have been to just let me know.  However to simply not respond does not seem right. I have a small business myself and would never treat a customer that way.

The best plumber!!! Did an excellent job!! So patient, trustworthy, reliable, genuine and the best prices!! Highly recommend!!!!!!

Long overdue review! TL;DR: Highly recommended, detail oriented and  professional plumber.
Our water heater died right before Thanksgiving 2020, and Angel from Dynamic swooped in to save the day. I still had some years left on my warranty for the tank, and he was able to apply that discount to the new tank, and walked me through the process. The hookup to the tank was also in a bad state of repair, and the valve to shut off water and surrounding pipes were corroded. He recommended a quick replacement, and we were up and running in no time.
He was super courteous, easy to work with, and safety oriented. It was great that he worked to save me money on the tank when I was in a tight spot with a holiday looming.

Absolutely, hands down the best plumber and one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. Jodie, office manager, is on top of everything.  Every phone call is returned promptly.  I manage a large museum-lots of plumbing-and Consolidated Plumbing has been a pleasure to work with.  And I've been working with them for years.  Never a disappointment.  Can't say enough nice things about this company.

Thank you Wayne for providing me Tony at Drain Flow to replace my water heater.  If it wasn't for you to refer (because you were flat out) I would be in a quandary for whom to call. He and Abe did a great job and thanks to you for the referral.

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?

I've been using these guys for years and they are always so kind, their work is fantastic and - on the off chance something doesn't work perfectly - they always come back quickly to make sure it does. Can't ask for better.

I used these fellows for an electric water heater installation and they did a superb job. It wasn't a routine install, requiring plumbing line rework since the new water heater was larger than the previous defective unit (due to new federal regulations as of April).

The installation was of high quality and the price was beyond fair. The diagnosis was quick and accurate and the job was completed in just a few hours. I would certainly hire Brian and his crew again.

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.

Used Hinchey Bros to put in a new boiler. They scheduled me promptly and the service was great. The new unit is meticulously designed and puts my ugly basement to shame!
Will recommend as well as consider them my new plumber!

These guys are great!  Fixed what was wrong and didn't try to get me to make an expensive replacement when it wasn't needed. Showed up within the two hour window they promised too. Great job, guys!

Jonny and his team were FANTASTIC! I have worked with other plumbing companies in the past and by far Rami & Sons were my best experience. I had a big leak and old pipes in my house and Jonny came by and stayed late figuring out the problem that I was having, he made me feel much calm and comfortable and more importantly, they did a GREAT job! My plumbing is working great now and he even recommended someone who could help me with other issues around the house. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a reliable company.

I've seen these dangerous drivers in the neighborhood for some time. Today a Malcolm van almost rear ended me, then went around me to run a red left turn signal while a pedestrian was in the crosswalk. Out of control. Several neighbors and friends will not hire them because of incidents like these and I recommend my clients find other plumbers.

I rarely write Yelp reviews, but I'm so happy with Barrell that I'm making an exception!  The furnace in our condo late broke late on a cold and frosty night.  I left a message on there emergency line that night, but called back early the next morning.  (That was the only negative - they didn't call me back that night, but I didn't really make it sound like it was important enough to warrant emergency service, so no big deal.)  They gave me an 11-1 service window, but around 12:45 I got an apologetic call that the repairman was running an hour late.  James, the repairman, came at 1:45 and after listening to what I thought the problem was, he got right to work.  He patiently answered all my questions and explained how to fix the problem in the future, without treating me like a dumb girl.  I will absolutely use Barrell again in the future!  The minimum charge is for 1 hour of service, and it cost $140 for my 1 hour.  I don't know if that's a good price, but it seems fair to me!  Cash on delivery only, by credit card or check.

Please stay away from this unethical company. The manager Rick was not only rude but also lack of basic ethics. This morning, when he called to ask me for payment for a 3-hour job --replacing a transformer for the heating system in my rental property. I told him please send me the invoice and I will mail you a check. He replied if I let everyone do that, I would go out of business. When I asked him to explain what was done and please at least show me a job order and a photo of the replaced/bad parts and I would give you my credit card info. Then I left home and started driving to the site. While I was still driving and wasn't able to answer his call, he left me a voice message saying if you don't call me back I will ask the plumber to put back the old parts and leave you with no heat. And within less than 30 minutes I parked my car and only found out that they already removed the parts and left my tenants in the cold. What kind of company would treat customers like this? This is absolutely unethical. Before they showed up this morning, we at least had some heat, but now the heating system does not even turn on. I don't know what they did and why it took them 3 hours the first time and only a few seconds the second time. First they wanted to overcharge you, and when that failed they just did more damage to your system and more inconvenience to people. What bad news!.......Soon after that I called another plumbing company, Winters Plumbing and Heating. They sent a technician over and inspected the heat pump, and concluded that the system was messed up and beyond repair.

Response time was fantastic, and it was very easy to set up our appointment to get a new sink installed and a leaky toilet fixed.  Jim arrived not just on time, but a little bit early, and he worked diligently until the job was complete.  Friendly service, too.  Everything looks great, and we are very pleased with how it all turned out.  Would definitely recommend Pescatore Mechanical Contractors to others!

Crescent Plumbing came out on a Sunday and helped us with a heat issue. Very professional and reliable, and they answered the phone right away. We will use them again if needed...
