In a June 2025 Google review, a customer wrote that someone else had looked at photos of an occasionally leaking shower and quoted $10,000 to replace it. B & B Hot Water Tanks called on the way home from another job nearby, arrived 20 minutes later, diagnosed it as likely an issue where the hardware attaches to the wall, and finished within the hour for a $220 service call fee, also cleaning off water stains and unblocking a slow-draining sink. The Burlington, Vermont plumbing company says it has been in business 52 years. It holds an A+ from the Better Business Bureau and 5 stars from 10 Google ratings. In October 2026 Pete and Will installed a hot water tank for a customer, who wrote that the price was fair and the communication clear. In September 2023 a customer wrote that the company came quickly during an emergency tank failure. In February 2023 a customer called on a Saturday about a hot water heater; a technician ("I believe his name was Pete") walked them through the likely problem, the fix worked, and Pete called back the following Tuesday to check in. A June 2023 reviewer got next-day help with a small leak and wrote that the company winterizes their camp every year. In September 2026 a Reddit commenter wrote that they had used Pete at B&B at least five times with zero complaints and called the company full-service plumbing. A December 2025 commenter wrote that Pete usually comes same or next day, and an August 2025 commenter called him "an excellent and pragmatic plumber."

Pete and Will installed a hot water tank for me. They gave a fair price, had great communication, and I would highly recommend them!
I put out feelers at a few area plumbers/contractors to get a quote re: a shower that occasionally leaks a few drops into the basement below. Somebody else said based on photos that it looked like the whole shower needed replacing, 10k quote, I was panicking & trying to hype myself up to do this intimidating job myself. Then these guys called me on their way home from another job in my area & offered to drop in right then to take a look. 20 minutes later they're here, they diagnose it as likely an issue where the hardware attaches to the wall, offer to fix it for a $220 service call fee, and within the hour they were done, after having also cleaned off some bad water stains & unblocked the slow-draining sink nearby just for funsies. 10/10
