I highly recommend Rich! He replaced our failing hot water heater. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Rich answered all of our questions and explained everything he was doing. He really cares about his customer’s safety and makes sure that the job is done right.

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

We had to replace our gas hot air furnace recently and placed a call to Rich Mathews & Son to give us a quote to do the work. He had previously installed a water heater at our house and did a great job at a fair price so we didn't hesitate to call him again. He just completed the installation of our new gas heating system and everything went smooth from start to finish. He explained to us exactly what needed to be done and he made sure that the project is completed as promised at a price that was again unbeatable. I would highly recommend that you contact them for any similar work you need done and I will be sure to hire them again if the need arises! It was a pleasure working with him!

Rich was able to help us out on short notice and did great work! Very personable and I would highly recommend!

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!

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!

Rich Mathews plumbing made sure we had hot water asap after our boiler went down- thank you! Rich explained every detail about the installation in clear way and was detail oriented- boiler set up looks great! Highly recommend.

Rich provided exceptional service in installing our water heater. His pricing was very reasonable, and he ensured that we received a high-quality heater while adhering to all city codes by changing the exhaust pipes. We are extremely satisfied with his work and wholeheartedly recommend his services.

I called Rich at the beginning of December to talk about replacing my ancient (1982) furnace and a water heater that was starting to hurt. Add in that I was trying to do it through Mass Save with a heat loan. Rich came out to my house on a Saturday to look at the job and give us the quote we would need to get the heat loan. He had the quote to me that same day via email and he dropped off a paper copy the next business day. He's forthright and honest and he started teeing up the special pieces we would need while we were waiting for the bank to approve the loan. He was very responsive the whole time and was good about giving me a call for updates.

Because of the jury-rigged nature of the old furnace, he told us it would take two days, possibly three, to get the old one out and the new furnace and water heater in. He worked late on a Friday to get it done right before the temperatures dropped down below 20. The new ductwork, venting, and drain for the condensate are all really well done. You can see the quality of his work. It is well below freezing outside, and this is the warmest my house has been since I bought it. He even came back after the install was complete to change an exterior fitting for the air intake because he wasn't happy with the part he had on hand when he did the job originally.

I feel like these great reviews still don't do Rich justice! He was absolutely amazing from that first call to the end of the job!

One of the things that stood out the most was how he helped me on the phone. Most companies I spoke to wanted as much info in your first breath as you could get out, and were mad if you missed anything. When I started right in Rich stopped me, asked me my name, told me his, and asked how I was. I knew he was the guy right there. He knew his stuff very well, and was patient when I couldn't answer questions. He came over to check out our very, very, poorly installed water heater and quoted us a very great price. He gave us options, and really seemed like he had our best interests in mind. He was able to come a day later which was faster than we had even expected, and got us fixed up in no time. All while my 2.5 year old bothered him wanting to help lol.

He went above and beyond for us, gave us a great price, and overall just a really nice person. We will never use anybody else.
