Martin McManus Plumbing & Heating is a Walpole, Massachusetts company that Martin McManus says he's run himself since founding it in 2004, personally taking customer calls as its owner. The company says it works Walpole, Canton, Dedham, Norwood, and Milton, handling plumbing, heating, water heaters and gas lines — and what shows up again and again in what customers describe is how fast he gets to the jobs that can't wait. The emergency calls are where the reviews get specific. In a February 2026 review, one homeowner who lost heat and hot water in the middle of winter says a crew arrived within a couple of hours on a Saturday, even though they weren't an existing customer. Another 2026 review describes a leaking pipe that had to be fixed two days before a house closing — the writer says Martin showed up the next morning and fixed it with a day to spare. A January 2026 review describes frozen pipes reported by a 6am phone message on a Sunday, with a crew member on the way shortly after. Planned work gets the same treatment: a 2025 review from a general contractor describes hiring Martin for the plumbing on a full bathroom remodel that turned out trickier than expected, done with what the writer calls professional execution, and another 2025 review describes Martin handling all the plumbing on a full kitchen-and-two-bathroom renovation, calling the work flawless. A 2023 review from a client who says they've used the company since 2010 — for kitchen, bath, water heater, furnace and gas-line work — points to a longer track record than the review dates alone show. In a January 2026 r/jamaicaplain thread, a commenter said they had used the company and had a good experience with it. Across 129 Google reviews collected since 2023, the average sits at 5 stars from 142 ratings, and the Better Business Bureau grades the company A+. Martin McManus's Massachusetts plumbing license is active. For anyone in those five towns facing a plumbing or heating emergency, or needing the plumbing done right on a kitchen or bathroom remodel, this looks like a strong call — for a bigger job, get a written scope and estimate up front.
“I've used (and had good experience with) Martin McManus Plumbing and Foley Electric.”
They responded quickly and took care of everything to get us hot water back ASAP.
Great service. I was able to easily get an appointment for a dishwasher install. Communication with the office was great. The install went smoothly, they took the old dishwasher away and left my house clean before they left. Highly recommend.
Just wanted to write a quick note about my great experience with McManus Plumbing and Heating for a water heater replacement. Karina was extremely helpful and got me on the schedule very quickly. Jimmy and Shane arrived early and did a fantastic job replacing the old unit with a much more durable model. These guys do first-class work!
Responded very quickly for a call to replace our water heater. Came promptly and ensured the unit was working correctly
Very fast reliable and polite I strongly recommend
