Associated Plumbers Inc is a Milton, Massachusetts plumbing company serving the greater Boston area since 1983 — roughly four decades in business. Both Angi and HomeAdvisor list plumbing repairs, drain cleaning, gas piping, and heating repairs and installations, along with kitchen and bathroom remodeling work that includes bathtub installation and replacement, and gas or solar hot water systems with radiant heating. Emergency service is offered on both platforms. Homeowners who hired the company describe fast, dependable service. One reviewer said the plumber called back right away and made a same-day repair, and planned to use him again for future plumbing work. Another, in a 2011 review, described an organized job on a basement leak: an on-site estimate, a signed contract before the start date, and work that moved from the top floor of the house down to the leak, with the plumber's son — a carpenter — assisting. Reviewers from 2009 through 2011 consistently called the work professional, efficient, and high quality, and one homeowner said the plumber spent time walking through options for a more energy-efficient heating system before the job. Platform ratings back that up: 5.0 stars from 26 reviews on HomeAdvisor, with every one of those reviews at 5 stars, and 4.4 stars from 32 reviews on Angi. The written reviews on hand are dated 2009 through 2011 — real, specific accounts, just older ones — so it's worth confirming current pricing, scheduling, and licensing directly before booking, even though the ongoing platform ratings suggest the reputation has held up since. For a homeowner in the Boston or Milton area with plumbing, heating, gas, or a kitchen or bathroom remodel to handle, this is a long-established local outfit with a strong, well-corroborated track record on both major review platforms — worth a call, with a written estimate before signing on.

He had evaluated the basement leak earlier in the week, and gave me an estimate for the work. We agreed on the start date, and signed the contract prior to starting. He started on the third floor and worked his way to the basement. He was assisted by his son who is a carpenter. The drain was located and exposed in each kitchen and removed in sections. They made as few and small holes as possible. The cast iron pipe removed was clearly clogged and showed other signs of potential leaks. The drain was replaced from top to bottom, using PVC. The insulation was replaced in the walls, and where there had been none, installed in that stud bay. The holes were covered with sheet rock, taped, and covered neatly with joint compound. Cabinets that had been removed were replaced properly. He corrected a vent stack attachment that had been missing in the basement. He was always willing to describe what he was doing and why. When there was a choice to be made, he consulted me. I was present the entire time. It was a big project, taking about 12 hours. He was responsive to my request that the work be completed that day. They vacuumed and swept the debris and removed the bags.
Called back right away and was here to make the repair same day. Professional and knowledgeable - we plan to use him for any future plumbing jobs!
I was very pleased with it.
Great experience, from beginning to end. Bruce was easy to contact, and pleasant and professional to work with. Job was performed efficiently and with high quality.
He was responsive and was very good at getting back to me. He spent a lot of time with me and gave me a lot of advice. He gave me a lot of information on energy efficient heating system that he might be able to install. The quality of his work was good and I was satisfied with his service.
