## The honest read

Lund Plumbing & Heating is a small, family-run shop in Tewksbury that's been swapping out water heaters and keeping boilers running for Greater Boston homeowners — the company says it's been at it, under father-and-sons ownership, for over 40 years, founded by John Lund Sr. and now run by his sons John and Patrick.

The thing that shows up again and again in its reviews, across more than a decade, is that the price on the phone matches the price on the invoice. A 2021 Angi review put it plainly: 'The final cost was the same as the quote.' Another from that same year said the quoted price for a hot water heater replacement was 'very reasonable' and that the crew found and temporarily fixed a second issue while they were there. When a water heater failed on Thanksgiving in 2025, Patrick Lund emailed an estimate and showed up at the house himself almost immediately, after several other area plumbers were too busy to even quote the job that day.

Not every account is glowing. In a 2009 Angi review, a customer was charged $300 for under an hour of work — a bracket to elevate a tube under a sink — and said the bill 'seriously affected my ability to pay other bills.' It's the one real complaint in an otherwise consistent record; the rest of the reviews, from 2009 through this year, describe on-time arrivals, clear communication, and boilers and water heaters installed without a callback.

Before booking, it's worth asking which of the company's several listed Massachusetts plumbing licenses is doing the work on your job. BuildZoom shows a Home Improvement Contractor registration it verified as active in mid-2026, plus an older individual plumber license whose expiration it lists as already passed — while Angi and HomeAdvisor show a licence with the same number still valid through 2028. That's worth confirming directly with the Lunds rather than assuming from any one directory.

For a straightforward water heater swap, a boiler repair, or general plumbing work in Tewksbury, Medford, or Reading, Lund is a small operation with a long, mostly clean record and pricing that seems to hold. It doesn't look built for large-scale remodeling — its reviews and licenses point to core plumbing and heating work, not full bathroom or kitchen overhauls, even though its BBB category mentions remodeling.

**Strengths:**
- Upfront pricing — several reviews say the final cost matched the quote
- Fast emergency response — a 2025 review describes same-day help after a holiday leak
- Long-tenured crew — family-run, now in its second generation of Lunds

**Concerns:**
- One pricing complaint — a 2009 review cites a $300 charge for under an hour's work
- Licence expiration unclear — directories disagree whether one plumbing licence is still current

**Where sources disagree:**
- The website and its Angi/HomeAdvisor profiles say the company has served Greater Boston for over 40 years, while its BBB filing (for the incorporated entity) shows 24 years, dated to a 2002 founding and 2004 incorporation.
- BuildZoom lists a Plumber License #10602 with a May 2024 expiration, while Angi and HomeAdvisor list the same license number (10602-PL-M) with a 05/01/2028 expiration — the two directories disagree on this license's current status.
