Andrew plumbing and heating

Andrew Ortega is the plumber people keep calling back. A customer writing in January 2024 had worked with him over many years; another said in the same month that he had used Andy for several years and that he always turns up when he says he will. In July 2025 a homeowner who had collected quotes from several plumbers said Andrew was the one who told him what he needed to know before taking the job on. It is a small operation. The Better Business Bureau lists it as a sole proprietorship with one employee, started in September 2014, graded A+ though not BBB accredited; Ortega himself describes it as family-run out of Lawrence since 2015. The specialties he names are boiler heating systems, tankless water heaters and hydronic radiant heat, alongside residential and light commercial plumbing and kitchen and bathroom work. Heating jobs are what customers describe in the most detail. In February 2024 a family converted their mother's house from oil to gas and found the scheduling easy and the technician prompt. In January 2024 a homeowner with no heat had the fault identified and fixed quicker than expected, and was shown a few things to watch for in case it happened again. Others describe a water heater replaced fast in November 2025, a shower re-sealed, an extra bathroom added to a unit, and the plumbing and gas connections run for a kitchen remodel. Price comes up as often as speed — fair, up front, reasonable. A February 2026 customer put it as fast, fairly priced and good people skills. The Google average sits at 4.6 across 21 ratings, while every review carrying written text is a five-star one. For a boiler, an oil-to-gas conversion or a tankless install around Lawrence, this is a one-man shop with a decade behind it and customers who stay. Because it really is one plumber, ask when he can start before you commit to a heating job in the middle of winter.
