In an October 2025 Google review, a large company had quoted a homeowner over $4,000 to fix a top-floor boiler and almost $16,000 to replace it, with a week's wait. Jeff Possick repaired it the same day for under $600. Other Possick Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling customers describe old heating systems brought back to working order. The company describes itself as a family-owned plumbing, heating and cooling business in Chestnut Hill, serving Greater Boston since 1940 — Newton, Brookline, Boston, Needham, Waltham, Cambridge, Watertown, Wellesley, Jamaica Plain and Weston. BBB lists Jeffrey H Possick as manager. On Google it holds a 5.0 from 46 ratings. A February 2026 customer with an old steam heat system said Jeff knew how to repair it after another plumber failed, and followed up after the repair. In a December 2025 review, Jeff and Harrison replaced hard-to-find corroded parts on two very old heating units. A February 2025 condo resident's account — three new heating and air units in a mid-century building with quirks of design — said the job was not easy and came in at a reasonable price. A March 2025 review describes a gas boiler replacement in Brookline. Water heaters are the other common call. In an August 2026 review, a customer's heater failed on a Sunday; the call was returned Monday, the heater was assessed that day, a proposal came that evening and the installation was finished Tuesday. A March 2025 customer said a broken water heater was being replaced two hours after they woke up to it. Many customers have used the company for years. In January 2024 reviews, one customer said Jeff handled all the plumbing, heating and duct work when they gutted a house in Newton, another said he identified a MassSave rebate on a more efficient boiler, and a general contractor said he had worked with Possick for years.
JH Possick did an excellent job replacing our water heater which of course went kaput on Sunday! I left a message Monday morning; the called was quickly returned and he came out that day to assess the issue. He gave me the repair proposal Monday evening which was fair and as able to have the replacement heater delivered Tuesday and then completed the installation Tuesday. He was responsive, professional, efficient, and has a great sense of humor making a stressful situation far less stressful! I highly recommend his services.
I called Jeff due to a broken bathroom sink pipe and got an immediate response. My family and I were leaving to go on vacation so Jeff scheduled a date to come and fix the problem the day we returned. He arrived the day we returned and was able to fix the issue quickly. Jeff did an excellent job. I plan to have him come back to replace a toilet and other bathroom repairs. Michael M
Jeff has a long career of experience and expertise and is a pleasure to work with. He and his son gets the job done right the first time.
I highly recommend Possick Plumbing. Jeff and Harrison were a real pleasure to work with. Communication was great, they were responsive, flexible, friendly and collaborative, and they went above and beyond to get over some unexpected challenges. Jeff's decades of experience was a real plus, and his prices were very reasonable. I look forward to having them work on future plumbing projects.
Jeff is very experienced. Fixed the HVAC with quick diagnostic tests and turn around. Really happy with it.
