J.C. Sweeting Plumbing + Heating

A do-it-yourself faucet swap in August 2026 ended with water leaking under the sink and a homeowner who could not find the shutoff. One call later, Jarrett Sweeting had the line isolated, shut off and the faucet replaced. That is the work J.C. Sweeting Plumbing + Heating gets called for: water going somewhere it should not, and it needs to stop now. Massachusetts plumbing licence 36806-PL-J, held by Jarrett Sweeting, is active on the state registry. The site describes the business as family owned and operated, and reviewers in July and August 2026 describe his son working beside him. Leak-hunting runs through the reviews. A June 2026 customer had water coming through a first-floor ceiling fixture from the bathroom above; cracked old cast iron pipes turned out to be the cause and the repair took two days. Another June 2026 ceiling leak in a downstairs bathroom became a job involving ceiling removal. In May 2026, after the water company flagged a constant leak behind a high bill, he found a corroded, leaking pipe between floors almost immediately, and a July 2026 leak at an outdoor faucet traced back to the sprinkler system. He answers off-hours. An April 2026 customer got an emergency visit at 8 in the evening to get the water running again; another that same month had a hot water heater die and flood the basement and had him there within an hour of calling. In a January 2026 review, a homeowner home from vacation to no heat and a burst laundry-room pipe posted on the Roslindale community board, and Jarrett was first to respond and came the same day. A February 2026 review describes a baseboard frozen solid with tenants waiting to move in and hours spent on it. The everyday list is long: garbage disposals, including one killed by uncooked rice in August 2026; a leaky toilet tank fixed on short notice with the parts on hand; a second outdoor faucet added in August 2026; a water heater replaced in April 2026 with the options and prices laid out first; a March 2026 washer and dryer swap that needed several water lines repaired and the dryer's gas connection redone. Bigger work shows up too — an August 2026 customer said he handled the town paperwork and plumbed a second line for a meter and an irrigation system, and in a June 2025 review a homeowner described him moving a house from septic to sewer, on time every visit. Price is the thing to settle in advance. Several reviewers call it fair or reasonable, but an August 2026 customer billed $2,200 to fix a leak under a sink and swap a valve worked that out to about $735 an hour across three hours of labor and left one star, and a July 2026 reviewer who was otherwise pleased said the price was on the high range. An October 2025 reviewer said he did not show up on time and called him irresponsible and dishonest. For a leak nobody else can find, a water heater that has just let go, or an after-hours emergency, this is a straightforward call, with an active licence behind it and a run of reviewers describing a clean work area at the end.
