A customer writing in October 2024 said Jim removed an old toilet and installed its replacement the same day they called JAM Plumbing & Heating. The Longmeadow business describes its work on Angi as plumbing, steam and hot-water baseboard heating, with boiler, water-heater, and fixture installation. Its customer accounts stretch back to 2013. That year, an Angi reviewer described adding a powder room, praised the exposed copper fittings in the basement, and said the plumber extended heating from a steam boiler to a new kitchen in a way that saved hundreds of dollars. An April 2018 Google reviewer said the worker arrived as promised, explained costs, completed the work promptly, and charged less than competing quotes. A 2015 Angi reviewer named Joe and praised prompt arrival, clean installation and repair work, and courteous service. There is also a serious complaint from October 2017. A Google reviewer alleged repeated last-minute cancellations, collecting money upfront and then failing to follow through, and arriving drunk or high late in the day. The reviewer called the work decent but described severe project delays. These are that customer's allegations about their experience at the time. The platform ratings differ: Google lists 3 stars from four ratings, while Angi lists 4.9 from eight. BuildZoom shows 223 projects and lists Massachusetts licence number MAPL011188M. The latest written customer account is from 2024; the other accounts are dated 2013–2018.
Jim did a incredible job I would recommend him he installed a new toilet and removed the old one same day I called.
I was very pleased with the work he did. He came out when he said he would, and kept me informed of all costs. He did the work in a timely fashion and was very friendly. He charged me less than what others had quoted. I would definitely use him again for future jobs. He did a great job!
This guy is NEVER in time. He cancels in the last possible moment with the most ridiculous excuses: rats leaving in his car ate the wires; got drunk a night before and fell off the deck and ended up in the hospital; mother had a heart attack (the same mother that had passed away a year ago and he had previously inquired free legal advice concerning her estate) so on and forth. He always shows up to get as much of a payment up front he can manage and then will blow you off. Also do not let him come late in the day as he tends to show up drunk/high. The work is decent but unless you have 6 months to complete a project that usually takes 2 days at most do not bother with him.
