Best Leak Detection 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.

I called Consolidated with an urgent problem.  Something had broke in the basement and everything was flooded.  I shut down the water main, and called, hoping someone would come that same day.  Within a couple of hours, Mike showed up, diagnosed the problem as a split washing machine hose, replaced it, installed a couple of shutoff valves to help me in the future, and was on his way within an hour.

To say that I was pleased would be an understatement.  This is the kind of plumbing service I've always hoped I'd find.  I'm so happy I finally have!

Our tenants called us over the weekend reporting a leaking water heater.  Contractor Home Depot put us in contact with wouldn't install for many days so we reached out to AMC Mechanical and they were able replace the water heater the very next morning! Andrew and his team was responsive and timely, great communication and really did a great job. Would absolutely use them in the future. Highly recommend.

Toilet flooded middle of the day and Christopher was extremely quick to respond and show up for the job. He was very responsive and showed a genuine care for his customers.

When a pipe burst in our condo over the weekend and flooded the living room, we realized we didn't have the right kind of insurance and needed help to clean up and repair things on our own. Casper Plumbing was quick to respond and repair the burst pipe at a reasonable price. Would definitely hire again and recommend them to anyone in the area!

Great service, great response but super expensive.  $300 for about 20 minutes of work to clear a drain.

I had a major exiting sewer pipe break. It was discovered during the winter. I had Chase Plumbing come out and give me an estimate. We just completed the repair. 1) They were right on with the estimate, even though most of it was underground and we were not quite sure what we'd find. 2) They came and met with my landscaper to co-ordinate digging up my patio. 3) They arranged for a mason to come out to cut thru my foundation, when the landscaper hesitated to do this AND still kept the cost in line. 4) Their employee Chris was awesome. He triple checked the new pipe to make sure there were no leaks. 5) They worked with my insurance company to complete the paperwork necessary. 6) Made sure that the correct permits were in order so that there were no issues with the insurance company. I have nothing but good things to say about Chase Plumbing. The ONLY plumbing company I will use.

Mike, has done a number of jobs for us over the last year. Excellent communication and top notch plumbing.  Highly recommended.

Frank is an extremely competent and trustworthy master plumber. We live in Arlington, MA and he is our go-to guy. He installed our water heater, which turned out to be a complex job, and recently our Bosch dishwasher. In addition, he has fixed our bathroom plumbing issues. He is friendly, prompt and hard working. It is very difficult to find a good plumber in the Boston area. We had some dicey experiences before finding Frank and we could not be happier.

Welter is the Man!  

I have an aging Buderus GB142 condensing boiler that has been having those old age boiler things happening. I had been using a local service with a monthly support agreement but recent experiences with under trained techs led me to search for someone more familiar with my boiler.
After having been quoted $4,900 to repair my boiler for error codes and inaccurate pressure readings from Company A, I contacted Welter and he came in and assessed a few problems. The issues were addressed efficiently, parts were replaced, connections were repaired the boiler was deemed ready for service and the total bill amounted to less than 20% of Company A.
Long story short, Welter is an experienced plumber, heating pro, with a positive attitude and excellent troubleshooting skills. Highly Recommend Welter for any heating / hot water issues.

I called these guys Monday to get my sink and tub unclogged and stop my toilet from dripping. They were here on Tuesday and fixed everything super quick and because our house is old, told me what I could do to prevent certain things from breaking/leaking/clogging with our old pipes. They were courteous, quick, professional and reasonably priced. I will definitely use T-Flow for all my future plumbing needs!

Super Bowl Sunday morning my water heater shit the bed. I called Bushi and they replaced it within a few hours. They were responsive and did the job. It was not cheap, but that was to be expected for an emergency job.

We were having an issue with our new disposal & existing dishwasher.  Aiden was able to troubleshoot and resolve the issues in less than an hour.  He was courteous, professional & highly knowledgeable.  Would definitely call them again if needed.

I have never in my life met a team so passionate at their job.  We needed a water heater replaced in our house as well as some other areas issues looked at/fixed.  Once we called Landmark we were completely taken care of.  We were met at the house and provided options that ranged in prices (with no upset pressure), they educated us on current requirements for venting (3 duct to a now required 4 duct), as well as provided us some good insights into how the water system works in general.  Clearly knowledgeable.  The quote they provided was never exceeded and we were provided options when looking at water heaters.  We chose the one we wanted and before you knew it the team was at the house, early on a beautiful Saturday morning ready and eager to get to work.  The work was done beautifully.  Not only did we have a new water heater installed (which looks darn good I must say), they installed the new venting ducts as well as shored up ALL the pipes in the basement (something they certainly did not need to do): insulated this one, clamped down that one, checked the water pressure here and removed excess pipes there.  A dream team.  

Quoting and invoicing is done through FreshBooks which makes the entire transaction paperless and easy.  Pricing was unbelievably fair for the work done.

These guys have not only earned our trust, but have earned lifelong customers as well as references.

Two things I dont like to mess with myself - water and electricity, one small mistake can lead to a much bigger one down the line. So when my kitchen faucet hit the end of its lifespan and started leaking I called Clark Plumbing. They were super quick to respond and set me up with an appointment and sent Scott my way to replace it. Scott was super friendly, professional, and helpful. Not only did he replace my faucet but also fixed quite a few things under the sink that needed maintenance and probably havent been touched in the last decade. He also went out of his way to give me some general maintenance tips and preventative measures I could take. Would recommend these guys in a heartbeat and will be calling them again if needed (but hopefully not for a long time)!

I'm basing this off of just one visit, and a simple job at that, but I'm really impressed so far. I had another plumber out here to do a simple kitchen faucet install, and after quoting me $400 and then saying he couldn't fit under my sink, he left. I called Baker-Elman and they were really pleasant on the phone, setting me up with an appointment a few days later.

The plumber showed up on time, was very nice, and did a great job. The whole thing took just over an hour and cost me around $160. I will continue to call Baker-Elman for any future plumbing issues. These guys are great.

David was quick to respond and arrived within days of request. He arrived promptly and the work was completed on the stipulated time.

I had MacCo come out today to adjust my on-demand tankless hot water system. Ryan the tech was excellent. It was clear he knew what he was talking about, and he had the problem solved in a few minutes. After working on the main unit, he checked the water temperatures in all the faucets (two bathrooms, two showers, kitchen sink) and made adjustments until they were right. I asked Ryan a lot of questions, and he answered them all confidently, politely, and demonstrated his knowledge of the system. This kind of hot water system is new to me and now I know exactly how it works thanks to Ryan.

I second all the bad reviews..   They sent a plumber yesterday, she said our hot water heater was fine - made an adjustment. There were other problems with the plumber. Short version, it's Friday night and we don't have hot water.
