Verified record
John L. Savage III is a plumber working out of 20 Gates Rd. in Middleton, Massachusetts, listed at (978) 979-6152. The permitted work on file is small residential plumbing and gas jobs: natural gas water-heater replacements at a Congress Street address in Beverly in 2023, and a second-floor water heater in Everett in 2021. BuildZoom shows three projects in total, each valued under $5,000. No customer feedback exists to judge that work by — BuildZoom states it has received no reviews for him and publishes no star average; the score of 0 shown there is calculated from licence and permit records, not from anyone who hired him. Credentials are the open question. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts plumber licence, #16902, with a status of Active, but marks it unverified and reports a last-known expiration of May 2024 — and the same page runs an alert reading "No active license on file". It separately reports a Home Improvement Contractor registration, #207747, as inactive and at one point cancelled according to Massachusetts Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation. Those are the directory's claims, not the state's. For a homeowner, this is a small owner-operated plumbing outfit with a short, verifiable permit trail and no public reviews. Before hiring, check licence #16902 directly with the Commonwealth's E-Licensing board and ask about the cancelled home improvement registration.
