Testimonials

Rich was awesome! We were in a real bind with no heat due to the Columbia Gas leaks in my area. Rich came in and worked long days through the weekend in order to get us back up and running. Incredibly thoughtful and trustworthy. Can't thank them enough!

Rich is the perfect plumber, returns call and emails promptly, visits site and accesses the task with short notice, gives a quick and competitive quotes. But the big asset is he is an excellent craftsman who provides outstanding quality workmanship. I will always use him on all my plumbing needs.

I contracted Rich to replace a forced hot water boiler and electric hot water heater. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, focused on doing the right thing for a very reasonable price. I had tenants that had no heat and cold weather fast approaching. Rich was responsive, and took the time to make sure he was doing things right. While on the phone, Rich looked at the property on Google maps to understand how he was going to get the new boiler in, came over after hours to check over things and take measurements. I got multiple bids from other contractors, and Rich was the only one to provide open, honest recommendations that had my best interests in mind. He pulled permits, showed proof of insurance and was accommodating around my work schedule. Not only that, but his relationships with others in the industry proved immensely helpful, including a referral for a very competent electrician, and being on first name basis with the inspector. I have no doubt my job was done right. His knowledge and attention to detail are top notch and I would highly recommend him.

Rich Mathews came out the same day to replace my water heater when it died. He was on time, professional, and personable. He handled permits and did everything to a high standard that easily passed inspection. I felt he went above and beyond to ensure I understood how the system worked and what he was doing. I would definitely use him again.

We couldn't be happier with the service provided by Rich. He replaced an old hot water heater with a propane-fueled one, and replaced two faucets for us, to boot. A consummate professional, Rich was friendly, informative, and completed all work in a timely manner. We will definitely turn to him in the future. Highly recommended!

Saturday morning. No hot water! No heat! Our Weil McClain boiler will not ignite. Rich Mathews and Son Lynnfield responded promptly. After a quick inspection the problem was identified fixed. We appreciated them coming out on short notice, fair price and attention to workplace safety with regard to COVID-19. If you are looking for professional, honest and straight forward plumbing experience. Call Rich Mathews and Sons. Great job! Thank you!

I contacted Rich to replace my 15 years old water heater and he returned my call within an hour. I shared photos of my heater over text and Rich provided a quote right away. That was my first time I needed to replace a water heater and didn’t know much about it, but he answered all my questions explained all the options I have and gave me very reasonable price.

Rich is extremely professional and honest person, and he really cares about his customers, their safety and makes sure that the job is done right. After the service he did follow up to make sure everything is okay and there are no issues.
He really went above and beyond for me and provided an exceptional service. I will definitely turn to him in the future, and I can’t recommend him enough.
Thank you again Rich!

Knew exactly what the problem was with just a quick conversation. Very knowledgeable and friendly, call Rich before you call anyone else. A+ service, thank you!

Rich Mathews & Son installed both our heating system and our water heater in 2011. The service was great, the work was done efficiently, the cost was fair, and Rich provided clear instructions for the very simple maintenance that the systems require. We have had no trouble with either system since installation and Rich has consistently been responsive to our occasional inquiries over the years.

Rich and his wife were great to deal with- Rich does the majority of the work himself and he does a great job - highly recommended- also his associates were all professional and respectful- I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rich and I would definitely hire Rich again for any future work. Thanks Rich
