Emmett Plumbing & Drain

Emmett Plumbing & Drain works out of a Denby Road address in Boston, taking the everyday plumbing calls — a stuck drain, a dripping faucet, a water heater that's given out — along with occasional emergencies. Google shows a perfect 5.0 across 18 ratings, and the company describes itself as covering everything from emergency plumbing to full pipe repair and repiping. In the six months since the start of 2026, the page has picked up four new ratings and no complaints among them. The most concrete of the batch is a January visit where a technician named Jonathan replaced four sinks and a sump pump and walked the homeowner through the cost before starting, and a February job where the crew was noted for protecting the interior while finishing on schedule. Further back, the same notes of promptness and follow-through repeat across the fuller 18-review history that stretches to September 2025. Not every rating on that page holds up on a closer read, though. Scattered through the history are a few that don't appear to be about this business at all — different company names turn up in the text of some, and one of the more recent five-star ratings, from January, is actually a review of a dermatologist visit rather than any plumbing work. A separate directory, dispatchcore.io, even lists 24 reviews for this business instead of the 18 that Google and other sites show. None of that proves the plumbing itself is a problem, but it's reason to be skeptical of the flawless rating rather than take it entirely at face value. For a same-day drain or fixture problem, this looks like a plumber Boston homeowners do call, and — going by the specific reviews that hold up — get taken care of. Given the odd material mixed into its review history, it's worth confirming the price and the person showing up match what was discussed before booking.
