Verified record
Primetime Boston Plumbers is a Boston plumbing company whose BBB profile lists a start date of May 2024 and an A rating, though the business is not BBB-accredited. Recent reviews from March through July 2026 describe fast, focused plumbing jobs — leak detection confirmed with a dye test before repair, a sump pump installed without issue, a sewer line cleared for a recurring blockage, a pool plumbing line unblocked, a water heater fixed in 45 minutes, and faucet installations completed in under an hour — with reviewers repeatedly noting the plumber explained the cause of the problem and offered maintenance tips. Worth asking about before booking: a January 2024 review describes a confusing quoting process, being told by an answering service that only the next caller could provide a quote before a plumber named Steve eventually called back for a garbage disposal swap — notably, that review is dated before the BBB-listed May 2024 start date, worth keeping in mind when weighing it. For Boston homeowners with a straightforward plumbing repair, the recent review pattern points to quick, well-explained service, though the company's track record is still short.

The plumber charged a reasonable flat rate to locate a leak that turned out to be from the kitchen sink drain, and he explained how the dye test confirmed it before starting repairs. He worked efficiently and wrapped up in about an hour, leaving everything tidier than expected.
Installed sump pump without a hitch.
I was initially unsure because past experiences with other plumbers didn't resolve similar issues, but this time the plumber thoroughly cleaned the sewer line and explained potential causes of our recurring blockage. It's been a week now, and everything seems to be flowing as it should, which is quite reassuring.
Our pool's plumbing had been losing pressure consistently and was affecting water circulation. The plumber identified a blockage in the main line, cleared it efficiently, and even suggested some preventive measures for the future, taking just under two hours to complete the job.
The plumber fixed my water heater efficiently, arriving promptly and completing the job within 45 minutes.
