A 2022 customer with a leaking water heater said they called 10 plumbing companies and only ABBCO Mechanical could come the next day. ABBCO Mechanical holds 4.8 stars from 9 Google ratings and is listed in the Newburyport chamber's business directory. In a 2023 review, a customer said Greg came out right away on a Sunday of the July 4th weekend to diagnose a boiler's leaking overflow pipe, and explained each step. A 2024 customer said Greg came out for an emergency at their mother's house and later for an issue at their own house. A 2024 customer said ABBCO replaced cracked pipes in a condo association's basement, then struggled with a toilet leak that had ruined kitchen ceiling panels: the leak was still there after the first visit, and calls and texts went unanswered for hours. That 2024 customer later added that Greg apologized, explained his phone had been damaged in a car accident, came back and did repairs, and the leak seemed resolved.
After ABBCO Mechanical did a fine job replacing cracked pipes in our condo association’s basement, I felt good about contacting them to deal with a toilet leak that had dripped down into my kitchen and ruined ceiling panels. Kind of desperate because I was going to DC for 5 days and needed this fixed ASAP. Greg came out and assessed it, came back the next day and we thought he fixed it - but when I came back Saturday there was still a leak coming from the toilet. I called ABBCO Monday AM and Greg said he’d be out that afternoon - didn’t happen so we agreed on this morning around 10:30 AM. Heard nothing by 11:30 so I started calling. No answer multiple times and mailbox was full. Texted 3 times (with increasing frustration) over the next 4 hours - no reply! They ghosted me! Inexcusable! If you can’t do the job just say so! Will never use this company again! Update: He contacted me late yesterday to apologize and explained his phone had been damaged in a car accident. I decided to give him another chance, as things like this CAN happen to anyone. He came this morning as we agreed and did repairs. The leak seems to have been resolved and hopefully this will do the trick! Fingers crossed! I have updated my rating to 3 stars based on this result.
Greg is awesome. Greg came out last year for an emergency for my mother’s house and was amazing, on time and explained everything. I had an issue at my house. Without hesitation called Greg. He came out. Told me the issue, talked about a repair and did great work. Thank you!
Greg came out right away to assess our boiler's leaking over-flow pipe. He spent time diagnosing the problem and explained each step of the way, helping us understand how it all worked (and didn't!). On a Sunday, July 4th weekend too. Highly recommend Greg and ABBCO Mechanical.
After finding puddles of water on the floor I discovered that my water heater was leaking and needed to be replaced. I called 10 plumbing companies and only some answered, and only Abbco could come the next day. Greg is professional, efficient and affordable. Highly recommend his services.
