AJ Pitrone Co is a Peabody, Massachusetts plumbing and heating contractor that says it has 25 years in business, run by Anthony Pitrone. On Thumbtack, the company holds a 4.9-star rating from 8 ratings (88% five-star), and the reviews on file describe water heater and boiler work handled quickly. In a 2025 review, a homeowner whose water heater was leaking said Anthony came out with an employee, assessed it, and swapped it the same visit during what they called a busy season. Another 2025 review described a water heater replaced within 24 hours of first contact. The bigger jobs get similar marks: 2025 reviews describe a full oil-boiler replacement with a new high-efficiency system, an added water heater/storage tank and an extra heat zone, and a separate new boiler-and-tank install called neat and efficient with a respectful crew. More than one reviewer singled out Anthony personally for answering questions thoroughly and treating them with respect, in contrast to other companies they'd gotten quotes from. For plumbing or heating work in the Peabody area — a failing water heater, a boiler swap, drain or gas line work — the reviews on file point to responsive service and clean installs; with only a handful of reviews on record, it's worth confirming current availability before booking.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Aj Pitrone Co. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

Was responsive answered all my questions came out within 24hrs and replaced my water heater. Would recommend
Great communication with AJ. He came replaced my hot water heater and did a good job. The quality of the work is professional, thorough and the price is reasonable. I will recommend him to anyone who is looking for similar projects.
Our hot water heater was leaking and needed to be repaired or replaced, ASAP. Anthony came with another employee to assess the situation. He replaced the broken water heater and removed the old one. Quick response for such a busy season!
Great experience! New boiler and tank installed and the process was quick and efficient. Responded for a quote visit quickly, receives quotes and receipts via email. Install of both tank and boiler was neat and efficient, crew was respectful and did a great job. Clean up after job was perfect. I highly recommend Anthony and AJ Pitrone Company
We had an oil boiler replaced with a high efficiency system, and added a water heater/storage tank, as well as added an additional heat zone to heat our basement in the future. AJ Pitrone Co was very reasonably priced for the amount of work done, but best of all, Anthony is a friendly, kind and professional person. I had several companies come out to give quotes and all of the other people that came out were annoyed to talk to me and basically didn't answer my questions. Not Anthony though, he answered my questions thoroughly, and treated me with respect. The crew cleans up well after service, and you can tell that the work done is meticulous.
