Rich went above and beyond assisting with maintenance to my boiler. He was on vacation and took my call because my boiler wasn’t working in winter temps. He walked me through all the steps of getting my boiler working until he was back to service it. I would have been without heat that day without him! He cares a lot about his customers and provides a top notch service!

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!

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 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 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 Mathews helped us convert our house from oil to gas heat, and we had a wonderful experience with him. He got to our job ahead of schedule, was incredibly easy to work with, fixed some other various issues he found while he was here, and gets bonus points for bringing treats for our dog (who loves Rich now). The next time we have a plumbing need he’ll be our first call, and we can’t recommend him enough.

Great service - would give more than 5 stars if I could! Rich and Lori took a bad situation (failed combination hot water heater) and helped ease the pain, going above and beyond to provide a solution designed to last and explain the quirks of our new-to-us house / the plusses and minuses of our chosen approach to the system replacement. Prices were fair and very competitive with other plumbers in the neighborhood. They went out of their way to make sure the new system got in fast before the winter cold set in, and were all-around great to deal with - responsive on the phone, transparent about equipment delivery and project updates, and just super kind to us and our nosy dog. Highly recommend!

Rich Mathews just finished installing a new gas heat and hot water system in my sister-in-law's home in Revere. Rich's attention to detail, constant communication every step of the way and his personal willingness to go above and beyond every step of the way was superb!

I have hired a lot of different contractors for as lot of different jobs in the many years that I have been working on my home, as well as my family's homes. While I have had many good experiences, and some not so good, Rich is by far the best in his field! If you want the job done right and in Rich's case better than right, then look to Rich Mathews as your first and best choice!

Thank you again Rich,

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.
