Last 6 months: 11 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read A 2026 customer facing a hard winter said they needed two urgent heating-oil deliveries from Bourne's in Morrisville, and that the drivers got there in the nick of time. Bourne's Energy's own website lists heating oil, Bioheat fuel, propane, wood pellets, mini-split heat pumps, emergency service and automatic delivery. Business news sites have reported that Bourne's Energy was sold to Dead River Company. A recent customer said the logistics coordinator and installation technicians kept them informed at every step of a new boiler installation, then were there the following week, when water from an unrelated issue flooded the area near the boiler, and helped correct a leaky hose. On a three-day boiler replacement, a recent customer thanked Tim and Damian, said they cleaned up at the end, and said the finished project added storage space in the utility room. A new homeowner said the on-call overnight team was patient and helpful, and a recent customer said Nikki answered all of their questions and resolved their issue quickly. A 2026 reviewer at Outbound Stowe said Lucas Jones arrived in around an hour when a boiler went down, diagnosed the problem quickly and got the building running again. A 2023 customer of 24 years said the service crew diagnosed a malfunctioning propane heater used to dry herb crops and found a cracked heat exchanger, and that service manager Skip Carlson worked with the manufacturer and distributor to get a warranty replacement. A 2022 customer said that during a four-day power outage, worried about running out of propane, a call at 8 a.m. had a truck in the driveway by 10 a.m. A 2020 Reddit commenter in r/vermont called Bourne's Energy their bulk hauler for Vermont wood pellets. A recent customer accused the company of making up meter readings far above what they used. A 2026 customer of five years said it refused to deliver and charge their card the following week, when they could not have their credit pulled during a house purchase. A 2025 customer who uses Bourne's for oil, propane and maintenance said the same central air problem was noticed again after a repair, and was told the wait would be over a month. A 2024 customer said that at a failed heating system, Bourne's caused a CO2 release that made them evacuate everyone, said it could fix the boiler and could not, and refused to release tank access to Suburban. A 2024 customer complained about the charge to relight a pilot. **Strengths:** - Urgent oil deliveries — a 2026 customer said drivers arrived in the nick of time - A boiler installation — a recent customer was kept informed at every step - Boiler replacement cleanup — a recent customer said Tim and Damian cleaned up **Concerns:** - Meter readings — a recent customer said readings were made up - A CO2 release — a 2024 customer said the household had to evacuate - Central air wait — a 2025 customer was told over a month - Payment flexibility — a 2026 customer was refused a delayed card charge ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Its website lists heating oil, Bioheat fuel, propane, wood pellets, mini-split heat pumps, emergency service and automatic delivery _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://bournesenergy.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): For Your Home Bioheat fuel Bioheat fuelB99 Heating Oil Propane Propane Wood Pellets Heat with Wood PelletsB…” - Business news sites report Bourne's Energy was sold to Dead River Company _(confidence: medium)_ - [Local News](https://vermontbiz.com/news/2024/february/21/bournes-energy-sold-dead-river-company) — “vermontbiz.com — Bourne’s Energy sold to Dead River Company” - [Local News](https://www.lpgasmagazine.com/dead-river-purchases-bournes-energy/) — “lpgasmagazine.com — Dead River purchases Bourne’s Energy” - 4 stars from 49 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Bourne's%20Energy&query_place_id=ChIJcR2W0EqVtUwRG2SSq_qEjvk) — “Google: 4★ from 49 ratings” - A 2026 customer said drivers made two urgent heating-oil deliveries in Morrisville in the nick of time _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2paeFN6VjNZa0ZzWkRrd1VGTlRhV1ZTU1RCTWNVRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xf98e84faab92641b!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOjZxSzV3YkFsZDkwUFNTaWVSSTBMcUE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ This has been an incredibly tough winter and heating oil has been getting sucked up at a ridiculous pace in my home.
