My Dear Watson Handyman Services is the handyman division of a Middlesex County business that also presents itself as My Dear Watson Plumbing, Heating & Cooling. The company says it is family-owned, has operated since 1987, and brings more than 40 years of experience; it also identifies itself as a NARI-Certified Remodeler. The Massachusetts home improvement contractor license 176858 was verified active on September 21, 2026, with GORDON T. GAUNTLETT JR. as the registry holder. In a March 17, 2025 Google review, a homeowner described several completed jobs: a heat-pump heating and cooling system, an outdoor electrical outlet, a bidet toilet seat, a whole-house water shutoff valve, a window well, and additional repairs. The profile's dated customer account covers work across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and handyman tasks. HomeAdvisor and Angi list flooring repair and pressure washing for this North Chelmsford handyman profile, with four projects shown on each platform. The company's own site also places plumbing, heating, and cooling in its broader service mix. Confirm which division will handle the job and which licence applies before work begins, especially for plumbing, heating, cooling, or electrical work. My Dear Watson is a fit for homeowners looking for a broad repair and installation resource. Ask for a detailed scope, the responsible business entity, and the current licence details before booking.
“I called Gordon and he was on it immediately. He repaired and replaced all the problems plus more like installing my dishwasher, stove and extra leaks we found.”
My Dear Watson has done several jobs at my house. He installed a heat pump heating and cooling system for my house, made an electrical outlet available outside my house, installed a bidet toilet seat, installed a whole house water shutoff valve, installed a window well and replaced a basement window. In each case the work was done very neatly and on schedule. I've recommended him to my friends who are also happy with his work. He has a full license.
