You call.

Rich answers — or returns the call quickly. Tell him the problem; you'll get a real window same day if it's urgent.

He shows up when he said he would. Diagnoses, explains, and writes a flat estimate before any work begins.

3

Job done right.

Code-compliant work, proper materials, time taken to do it cleanly. Inspector-ready every time.

4

Cleaned & warrantied.

Site cleaner than we found it, old parts hauled, written workmanship warranty handed to you before we leave.

Frequently asked

Questions homeowners actually ask.

Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Massachusetts Plumbing License #16617, with full liability insurance. Certificates are available on request — homeowners, property managers and GCs welcome.
How quickly can you come out?
Most non-emergency calls get a same-day or next-day appointment. Urgent calls (active leak, no hot water, sewage backup) get priority — call directly: (508) 663-7132.
What kind of water heaters do you install?
Every kind. Standard tank (40/50/75 gallon), high-efficiency, gas tankless, electric tankless, and indirect-fired off your boiler. We also do full maintenance & cleaning on existing units. We help you size and choose the right one for your home, family and budget.
Do you provide written estimates?
Always. Flat-price, itemized, in writing — handed to you before work begins. If we open something up and find more, we stop and re-quote. The bill matches the estimate.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — written workmanship warranty on every install. Manufacturer warranties for water heaters and major fixtures are registered in your name so coverage stays with the home.

Headquartered in Medway, MA, working primarily through the Boston suburbs: Medway, Millis, Medfield, Franklin, Dover, Sherborn, Milford, Hopkinton, Norfolk, Wrentham, Foxborough, Mendon, Ashland, Natick, Bellingham, Framingham, Walpole, Westwood. See full list →
