Brodeur & Sons

When the blizzard of 2026 buried the South Coast, the reviews that followed all told the same story: the Brodeur truck still got down the driveway. One customer wrote a short poem about it. Another, snowed in with a buried fill pipe, says the driver came back around the same day so the tank wouldn't run dry on another cold night. That is the shape of this Dartmouth company — a heating-oil dealer that also services what the oil feeds. Its Better Business Bureau profile lists oil delivery alongside oil burner sales and service, heating work, duct work, air conditioning units, and gas and electric heating and cooling equipment, and that page carries an A+ grade. The place is enough of a fixture that a 2018 New Bedford news story located a proposed dispensary lot by pointing to "the Brodeur & Sons Heating and Air Conditioning building next to the rail road tracks." The written history is both deep and young: 96 reviews across five sources, all of them from 2025 and 2026, and a 4.9 average over 121 Google ratings. Staff names recur until they become the through-line — Kim in the office, Shane and Kyle on the trucks, Jeff running service. In July 2026 a homeowner described Jeff Costa's crew fitting a replacement furnace and AC system into tight space "on schedule, and with no surprises." In December 2025 another found a leak in a tank still holding 270 gallons; within 24 hours it was pumped out, the old tank removed, a new one set, the oil put back and the mess cleaned up. Two things are worth raising before you book. The state registry shows this company's Massachusetts HVAC licence, number 344-SM-B, as expired — ask where that stands for the work you want done. And the one serious recent complaint is specific: in June 2026 a customer wrote that a $250 preseason maintenance call missed an upstairs unit that failed a week later, that a follow-up visit cost another $150 without fixing it, and that the phone call about it ended badly. The same reviewer states the business is no longer family owned and operated. For automatic delivery, storm-week refills and the annual burner cleaning, this is a steady record built mostly on showing up when they said they would. For a full system replacement, get the current licence status and the maintenance scope in writing first.
