D.H. MacLeod Plumbing & Heating is a family-run plumbing and heating company based in Auburndale, owned by Dana MacLeod; its BBB profile shows it as an Accredited Business with an A+ rating and 37 years in business. Its Massachusetts plumber license is verified active. The reviews here, all five stars, describe fast, dependable work across a range of jobs. One recent review described a new kitchen faucet installed within 24 hours of the initial inquiry. Another described a substantial gas conversion — removing an old oil tank, oil boiler, and indirect hot water tank to install new gas service in Weston. A 2025 review described a water heater on the verge of failing that the company rescheduled to install earlier than planned once it started leaking. What comes up again and again is the long relationship customers have with Dana and his team: one described more than 20 years of plumbing and heating service at the same home, and another described Dana as the patient, personal plumber for their elderly mother, remembering her name and taking the time to talk with her. For plumbing and heating work in the Auburndale and Newton area, this is a small, accredited, family-run shop with a consistently positive written history and real depth in both routine repairs and larger system conversions.
Great work by Shawn at DH MacLeod installing my new kitchen faucet and accessories. The job was completed within 24 hours of my inquiry—hard to beat. Highly recommend.
Very high-quality service from these guys! You can tell they’ve been in the plumbing biz for a long time and genuinely care about their customers. Would highly recommend to everyone!
Great response time. Reasonably priced. Small business that beats the big guys every time.
Top notch team! I've had Dana and his team over for plumbing & service calls before, and have always loved the work and their work ethic. This made it a no-brainer for when I had a leaking hot-water-heater situation. I called Dana, and he was able to have his team over within an hour with a new water heater. Chris and Shawn were super professional, did a really nice job installing, hauled away the old heater and cleaned up the area and the pathway nicely at the end. All in all, definitely call them for your Plumbing and Heating needs. I have never been disappointed, and I do not think you will be either. Thank you D.H. MacLeod Plumbing & Heating!
I called around and found them to offer a reasonable fair price for a water heater replacement. Shawn also answered quickly on any questions I had on the heater itself. A week before the scheduled install, my heater started dripping. And they were able to reschedule my appointment to the coming Monday. Nick and the other guy who came over was efficient and polite. Also explained things as they go. Overall a good experience. I plan to call them for my plumbing issues from now on.
