Best Businesses in Massachusetts

Our heat went out last night. We called R-Chee this morning and they came right over within the hour. They were very nice and helpful. R-Chee took care of our issue and we are back in business. The house is heating up as we speak. Pricing were also very reasonable. I highly recommend them and we will be repeat customers always!

I am not sure I can say enough wonderful things about this company, Matt and Patrick. I talked with Matt over the phone and by the way he spoke I knew I had called the right place.  He set an expectation of when someone would be there and sure enough as promised, Patrick rang our bell.  Patrick was extremely professional, polite, educational and thorough.  He was determined to get to the root of our drain issue, and he did!!!! Patrick also kept me in the loop of what he was doing to fix the potential problem, all while making sure not to make a mess or track in mud!  I would highly recommend this company!!! Thank you Patrick and Matt.

We had a nightmare situation with the sewer line from our house to the street failing causing sewage backing up into our basement! After getting screwed over by a plumbing company, we called Kevin as one of our possible contractors. Before even we committed to him as our contractor Kevin was wiling to step in and help us. We were pumping sewage water out of our basement on a nightly basis. It is clear that Kevin wants to do the right thing...his work being diligent and conscientious. Kevin put a temporary fix in place before the actual work could begin to alleviate our emergency. He went above and beyond and made bearable a nightmare situation. Kevin was at our house checking in on the situation so many times before his actual paid work even began. If you are looking for a contractor look no further. I cannot recommend KB Aruda enough.

Dennis is an outstanding plumber and I will recommend him to everyone I know.   I had a problem with a radiator in my tenant's unit which needed fixing right away. Dennis was here, as promised, within 45 minutes and did an excellent job.  He also looked at the other radiators and replaced another steam vent that was not functioning.   Fairly priced, highly professional work and service, nice guy.

OK, while I'm writing Yelp reviews tonight, I really need to give Frank an overdue 5-star rating. You never really appreciate a true professional until you've had to deal with a total hack, which I've done. (I am through with home warranty programs that don't give you any say in who provides your service!) I had my house go cold on one of our sub-zero mornings, and after a guy who we used and liked before said he was booked solid for the day, I found Frank on Yelp. He came over within a couple of hours and pinpointed the problem.

A couple of weeks later, I noticed a persistent leak from the boiler. Again, I called Frank, and he came by a couple of days later since it was not an emergency. He fixed the issue and was not going to charge me, but I insisted on paying him at least a service fee.

Frank is friendly, knowledgeable, fair and responsive. When you call him, you're getting his direct line. I wish I had hired him to install our boiler and central AC instead of the guy I gave 2 stars to. I highly recommend him and will probably have him come back to fix some of the shoddy work that was done previously.

They seem to have multiple yelp entries under different address/phone numbers, but all the numbers are listed on their website.  Wonder why that is.

Horrible experience with this company, when they were apparently the subcontractor at fault in my review here: yelp.com/biz/ccl-mechani…

These guys are the best! Particularly fantastic accessing systems in tight squeeze situations. So reliable, highly competent, flexible, high value service. Text them for help, and they are there within 24 hrs - came today - on a Sunday of Christmas weekend to help us with a hearing problem. I would never call anyone else.

We had our HVAC unit act up, and after reaching out to Absolute Precision, Ken got back to us right away. He sent someone out (Dane) and he was able to diagnose and fixed the problem on the spot. He was prompt, professional and you would have never known he was even there after cleaning up. This also could have cost a fortune to fix any damage done in the unit below if not addressed immediately. I was contacted after the job for feedback which of course was all good. We have put him at the top of our homeowners list of reliable, dependable, honest contractors and would recommend their services to anyone needing it. Thanks again!!

I know a little bit about piping and a lot about quality work. Chenette came and did a high quality. I had a new gas line and meter installed by the gas company. I needed a plumber to run a line from the new meter into the house and connect to the existing piping.
I could tell that there was an easy way and a more complex way to do this.
Everyone who gave an estimate wanted to do it the easy way, including chenette.
When I went downstairs to see the completed job I surprised to see that Don had done the job the more complex way which involved a lot more cutting and a lot more time but which looks a lot cleaner and eliminates a lot of unnecessary pipe.  
Don - I really appreciate you going the extra mile on this job. Your attention to detail did not go unnoticed.

My kitchen sink backed up at 4:00pm on a Friday night, two hours before 8 guests were arriving for dinner.  Of the three plumbers I called, only Allen called me back.  I was told the nights and weekend emergency service rate would apply, with a minimum charge in the $300s.  Michael arrived within 30 minutes, worked diligently for more than an hour, and solved the problem just as the first guests arrived.  For as hard as he worked, I was pleased the final fee was equal to the quoted minimum charge.

The Kirkland and Shaw folks are very professional, accommodating, and courteous! My newly installed disposal separated from the kitchen sink, leaving a flood and no sink. Luckily. James was in the area and came immediately. He was knowledgeable and replaced the new disposal with an even newer one! Not our choice, but the disposal was too big for its space. They are reputable, but a bit pricey . I absolutely would use them again, and recommend them highly. I even spoke to the actual owner, Steve Kirkland, who was very helpful! I wish the contractor who remodeled our condo kitchen used a firm like this.

Do not use this firm. They are incredibly old school. They refuse to use the new plumbing methods and materials. Several times they have worked on my apartment and each time I have had to fight with them to use the newer plumbing materials such as quarter turn shut offs -- they think that because one such valve failed once, all of them are bad. They also are not detailed oriented -- piping was not strapped that should have been strapped as it was in mid-air.

I met Rusty when I bought my house in 97... Since then he has done all my work, from water heater, furnace to new BR and kitchen. Always punctual, professional and reasonable and throw in a great sense of humor. Never had a problem with ANYTHING he has done. He does not take new customers but if you do get in you are VERY fortunate.   He is very busy but you can get in touch with him anytime... wish I could give him 10 stars... All tradesmen should be this good!

Thank you Dan and Chris for such great work and much appreciated professionalism. I called a few other plumbers before I was lucky enough to find Dan Cadotte Plumbing.  Unlike the others, Dan called me back and was willing to come to my home to price the project.  He promptly sent me a quote and after a few emails about my faucet and disposal selections, we scheduled the installation.  Chris arrived at the time noted and  1 1/2 days later the job was complete.  Also, Chris went the extra mile when an unexpected issue occurred. Without hesitation, Chris came up with a solution and all is well.  Thank you both, I know I will need a plumber in the future andwill not hesitate to call Dan Cadotte Plumbing

Anthony and Ralph JUST stopped by. Our toilet was clogged since yesterday morning and I couldn't get it unclogged the usual way (plunger, hanger, Drano).  I called Anthony around 10:55am and he was passing by so stopped by with Ralph.  Ralph unclogged the toilet in less than five minutes.  It's now 11:25am as I type this review.  Given, I hadn't dropped anything in the toilet and it was probably just thick toilet paper (u-huh), it was really quick and dirty and sweet all at the same time. :) Two thumbs up.

Phone conversation was enough to know All Charlie wanted to do was upsell, Price up, disparage of materials and does not really want to do the small job -

He sent a comment that ended up miisplaced. In my box  - saw this comment and message is Clear - got To be a big profit to take the job

Save your breath, money and time.  There are many out there who are willing to chat respectfully, explain things without complaining and give a price honestly.  The price I heard was ..,oh well we'll just figure it out when we get there - BS!  - --nrate, no quote, no invitation to Quote ...

I called Streeter plumbing to get an estimate on a plumbing job at my condo. I made an appointment for the following Thursday and the secretary gave me a window from 10am-12p. The day of the appt I called to confirm the appt and ensure they would call me with a 10-15min warning so that I could meet them at the condo.  By 12:05 they still had not showed up. I called and spoke to the secretary who said the plumber must have gotten held up at a previous job, but he still planned on coming. I asked her when that would be and she put me on hold, then came back and said he would be there in 10-15min. I waited another 30min before giving up and leaving. The plumber called me 10min later (45min after the 2hour window had expired) to tell me he was on his way. I told him i had already left and he said, ok and hung up.

Apparently they did not need my business and do not care if they keep you waiting on them for over 2 1/2 hours. Neither the plumber, nor the secretary every apologized for them not being there on time.

I have no idea if they are competent plumbers, but their customer service is certainly lacking.

Would NEVER support this company. Their home, which has Jonasson trucks parked outside, has tons of trump signs lining their lawn. If they are still supporting this lying, corrupt, racist, bigoted admin, they DO NOT deserve our business.
