Last 6 months: 190 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read Delponte Plumbing & Heating carries a 4.9-star Google rating from 827 ratings, and the company says it has been in business 48 years. Its website lists plumbing work from hydro jetting and toilet repair to gas line services, water heaters and leak detection, names a service area that includes East Hartford, Hartford, Glastonbury, Middletown and Portland, and offers 24/7 emergency service. The Better Business Bureau lists it as accredited with an A+ grade. A recent customer said Joel Curillo worked through a list at their condo in Glastonbury in one visit: a new kitchen faucet, a shower leak, a toilet leak and a rebuilt fill valve, plus checking the gas water heater flue and gas fireplace. A recent customer said Rich Ward examined a basement drain, did the work and tested it while they stood there. A recent customer said Dom Kelminskas installed a new zone board and programmable thermostat that another electrician had said would be impossible without a C wire. A recent customer said Carson worked until midnight on a drainage emergency, then came back with Ricky and found two separate clogs in other main lines. A recent customer said Bob explained how their oil system works after a previous service company never changed the filters or screens, and they signed a service contract. A recent customer said an HVAC technician assessed and fixed their central air conditioner within 30 minutes on a 5 pm visit the same day they called. A recent customer wrote that the company did not show up for the job and that the guy on the phone was rude; the reviewer added that the owner had claimed it was the wrong business. A 2026 customer said plumbers fixing a sink drain pipe accidentally cut a heat pipe, leaving them without heat and hot water. That 2026 customer said the company came back in the morning and spent a few hours fixing it at no charge. **Strengths:** - A one-visit job list — a recent customer said all work was done in one visit - A same-day AC fix — a recent customer said it took 30 minutes - A thermostat install — a recent customer said another electrician called it impossible **Concerns:** - A missed appointment — a recent customer said no one showed up - A cut heat pipe — a 2026 customer said it was fixed at no charge ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 4.9 stars on Google from 827 ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Delponte%20Plumbing%20%26%20Heating&query_place_id=ChIJweBFCxpQ5okR-PEumzRcAcw) — “Google: 4.9★ from 827 ratings” - Says it has been in business 48 years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://delponte-plumbing.com) — “Self-reported 48 years in business” - Better Business Bureau accredited with an A+ grade _(confidence: high)_ - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ct/glastonbury/profile/plumber/delponte-plumbing-heating-llc-0111-689) — “Better Business Bureau grade: A+” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ct/glastonbury/profile/plumber/delponte-plumbing-heating-llc-0111-689) — “Better Business Bureau: accredited / certified / member” - Offers 24/7 emergency service, by its own account _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://delponte-plumbing.com) — “Stated offer (self-reported): 24/7 emergency service” - A recent customer said Joel Curillo finished a list of faucet, leak and fill-valve work at a Glastonbury condo in one visit _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2w5SFV6QkZZM3BuVVVwemRHZ3dNa0ZaWVV0b1QxRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xcc015c349b2ef1f8!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOl9HUzBFY3pnUUpzdGgwMkFZYUtoT1E%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Joel Curillo at Delponte did a wonderful job for us at our new-to-us condo in Glastonbury.
