Alan J. Becotte is a plumber whose paper trail is almost entirely permits, not reviews. BuildZoom counts 148 permitted projects under his name, and the sampled ones are ordinary residential plumbing: sewer lines into foundations, basement bathroom rough-ins with ejector pumps, gas stubs under decks, residential fire-sprinkler heads dropped into finished basements. Much of that work sits in Methuen, though his listing gives a Winchendon address. The services BuildZoom lists line up with those permits — boilers and water heaters, gas and piping, fire sprinkler systems, septic tanks and systems, and general plumbing. That mix reads like a builder's plumber: new-construction and basement-finish work on residential streets rather than emergency call-outs. What is missing is the part homeowners usually lean on. BuildZoom states it has received no reviews for him at all, so there is no customer voice here in either direction, and nothing from any other platform reached this page. The BuildZoom score of 91 is calculated from permit activity, not from anyone's opinion of the work — it should not be read as a rating. The licence picture needs care. BuildZoom prints four records, every one of them marked "License Not Verified," and they contradict each other: the same two numbers repeat under different type labels with three different expiration dates, one of them cited to a different state agency entirely. Nothing here has been confirmed against the Massachusetts registry, so treat all of it as the directory's claim rather than a credential. If you are considering him, the permit history is genuine substance — someone who has pulled that many residential plumbing and gas permits is doing real work. But ask for his current master plumber licence number directly and check it yourself with the Commonwealth's e-licensing board, and ask for a few recent local references, since none are published anywhere here.
