Greg Hale Plumbing & Heating

Greg Hale Plumbing & Heating is a one-man-name operation serving Cambridge, Somerville, and Medford, and the standout fact in its record is longevity — with customers, not just in the business. Reviewers describe using Greg for 20 years, in one case across multiple homes and projects; another says they've called him for "emergencies, repairs and replacements" over many years and always found him quick, competent, and reasonably priced. The written record is small — six reviews spread across Google and Angi from 2019 to early 2026 — but consistent: every one is five stars, and the work described spans classic plumbing (leaky pipes, drain and water piping) alongside heating equipment, with one Angi review crediting him with fixing a furnace and radiators directly. The company's own site adds boiler repair, hot water replacement, and 24/7 emergency service to that list. Both the Better Business Bureau (A+ grade, though not an accredited business) and Angi (an "Approved" pro, 5.0 stars from 3 reviews) back the reputation, and Angi's profile lists a Massachusetts trade license number for the company, though that's the directory's claim rather than a registry verification. One thing worth a quick question before you call: the sources don't agree on some of the basics. The company's address appears as 95 Spring St in both Medford and, on its BBB profile, Somerville — likely just a town-line quirk rather than two different businesses — and its stated years in business range from 39 (Angi) to 42 (BBB, dated to 1984) to 50 (its own site). None of that shows up in the actual customer accounts, which are uniformly positive across more than two decades. For a plumber people keep calling back for both pipes and heating equipment, this is a credible, long-tenured choice — just confirm the license number and address directly.
