A homeowner shopping around for estimates in December 2025 sent Jorge a photo of the setup; he identified the equipment on the spot and came in $100 to $200 under the outfits that had not bothered to ask whether it was the water heater or the furnace. Four days later another customer wrote that the price held even though the job turned out harder than anyone expected. Great Plumbing Heating and Drains is a one-person shop out of Peabody. Its Thumbtack profile says Jorge has been at it for 13 years, takes both commercial and residential work, and has held Top Pro status since 2019; the same profile carries a Massachusetts master plumber licence it describes as verified. Day to day the work is drains, pipe repair and replacement, and emergency calls. Customers describe him the same way when the job gets awkward. In April 2026 a reviewer said a big project was squeezed into a full schedule and still finished ahead of the deadline they were working toward. Going back further, a homeowner writing in December 2018 whose boiler let go and flooded the basement said he sorted it the same day, and another that month described each part of the job growing once it was opened up β a toilet replaced, fixtures re-set β with no fuss about it. The written accounts are few and spread out: five of them, all on Thumbtack, running from 2018 to April 2026, behind a 4.9-star average across 37 ratings. About one rating in thirty is a single star. For a stubborn drain, a water heater question, or a boiler that quits on a cold night around Peabody, this is a long-running one-man operation whose customers talk mostly about price and follow-through. Ask about scheduling up front, since Jorge is doing the work himself, and confirm the master plumber licence number with the state before the job starts.
Fantastic experience working with Jorge from start to finish! Despite a busy schedule, a big project was accomodated and completed with great care, attention, and professionalism, not to mention at an excellent value and timeline considering our goal to finish the work before we move in. Thank you for the high-quality service- long term customer for sure!!
Great plumbing was super quick to respond and didnβt charge me extra even when the job was more challenging than anticipated. Will definitely use them again.
Jorge is an honest man. I was shopping around for estimates, and his price was great. Others quoted $100-200 more without even checking if it was my water heater or furnace that I wanted maintained! With him, I shared a photo of my setup and he identified it correctly right away (Navien Electric Tankless). That assured me he has worked with it before and that my issue would be in good hands. He was also very prompt. He arrived early and it worked for my schedule. He finished in around 2 hours and helpfully explained how and why my water was that way. I would book him again.β¦
It was very nice to have met George. Our boiler started to leak and flooded the basement and he was quick to help him in solving the problem the same day! He was very professional and would recommend him for your plumbing needs.
George was great. I felt badly, each project became more involved once he got into it and we realized the issues were larger, but he rolled with it and got to work. He did an amazing job and I will definitely have him back when I need plumbing work. He replaced a toilet, re-set another toilet, replaced 2 sinks, 3 faucets, replaced two sets of valves and replaced a cracked pipe. Everything is working better than ever, he left our space clean and communicated well.β¦
