Verified record
Richard Eldridge Plumbing-Heating is a Kingston plumbing and heating shop that Better Business Bureau's file traces back to 1975 — a five-decade family sole proprietorship, with master plumber Richard S. Eldridge listed as the license holder of record. A recent Google review calls the crew hard-working and says they've been used more than once, and in a 2025 review a residential construction company described using Eldridge as a subcontractor on its Kingston jobs, praising punctuality, communication and pricing. The record isn't spotless, though — in a 2024 review, one customer said a scheduled appointment tech never showed or called. One thing worth confirming before booking: the state's plumber registry lists Richard S. Eldridge's master plumber license, #7284, as expired, while Better Business Bureau's own page still describes the company as currently licensed under that same number. Worth a call for straightforward plumbing and heating work given the long track record — just confirm current license and insurance status directly before scheduling.
