Pettee Brothers' Oil

Pettee Oil is a Winthrop heating-oil supplier that also handles furnace installations and offers 24-hour service — the company says it has served Boston's North Shore since 1984, putting four decades behind the truck that shows up. What keeps customers coming back winter after winter is speed: in a 2021 review, a longtime customer said the team responds faster than their previous supplier for both oil deliveries and general service calls, and a 2022 reviewer described the crew as responsive and informative while learning the ropes of oil heating for the first time. Two technicians, Wayne and Tom, get named directly — in an October 2023 review a customer credited Wayne with a smooth furnace installation and said it was enough to switch oil companies entirely, while an earlier 2023 review praised both of them for showing up on time at fair prices. The five reviews on file run from 2021 to 2025 and are short rather than detailed — worth confirming current pricing and scheduling directly when calling for a delivery or installation.
