# Gary C Jones Plumbing & Heating **Trade:** Plumbing · **Address:** 12 Yeoman Dr, West Yarmouth, MA 02673 · **Phone:** (508) 394-2696 · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.5/5** (low confidence) — from 0 reviews across 2 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low. ## The honest read Gary C. Jones Plumbing & Heating is a one-name West Yarmouth plumbing shop on Yeoman Drive whose paper trail is deeper than its review presence. BuildZoom's permit database credits it with 121 permitted jobs across the mid and lower Cape — bathroom remodels in West Yarmouth, water heater and gas line work in Harwich and Harwich Port, generator hookups in South Yarmouth — with a typical permit around $2,850, and scores it 106, which BuildZoom places in the top 7% of Massachusetts contractors. There are no customer reviews on any platform. The closest thing to word-of-mouth is a March 2022 r/CapeCod reply that named the firm — phone number included — among three plumbers suggested to someone looking for a reliable plumber in Yarmouth. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts plumber licence (#8890), a master plumber licence and a sheet metal licence for Gary C. Jones; those are the directory's claims, and the expiration dates it shows are stale, so confirm current licensing directly before hiring. A steady local choice for everyday plumbing, gas and water-heater work — just expect to vet it by phone and references rather than by reading reviews. **Strengths:** - Deep permit history — 121 permitted jobs across the mid and lower Cape - Top-tier BuildZoom score — 106, top 7% of Massachusetts contractors ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - BuildZoom's permit records credit the firm with 121 permitted projects across the mid and lower Cape — bathroom remodels, water heater replacements, gas lines and generator hookups — with a typical permit value around $2,850. _(confidence: medium)_ - [BuildZoom](https://www.buildzoom.com/contractor/gary-c-jones) — “121 project(s) shown on BuildZoom” - [BuildZoom](https://www.buildzoom.com/contractor/gary-c-jones) — “BuildZoom profile for Gary C.
