Verified record
Robert Fickert Plumbing and Heating is a Lakeville, MA plumbing and heating company run by Robert (Bob) Fickert, a sole proprietor who, per the Better Business Bureau, has been in business 44 years. In reviews posted on Angi from 2020 through 2025, homeowners consistently describe Bob responding quickly to urgent heating problems, quoting fair prices, and returning to check in after the job was done. Documented work spans gas boiler and water heater installations, a radiant floor heating system poured into new concrete, and repairs to antique steam heating systems in older homes; a 2021 review described him returning at no charge to fix a leak in piping he had installed. Angi rates the company 4.9 out of 5 from 119 ratings (97% five-star), and the Better Business Bureau grades it A+. Review activity has real gaps — nothing was posted between late 2022 and late 2025, and the newest review on file is from October 2025 — so it's worth confirming Robert's current schedule and workload directly before booking. For a homeowner in the Lakeville area needing boiler, water heater or heating-system work, the long, consistently positive track record and utility-certified credentials (premier installer status with National Grid and Columbia Gas) point to an experienced, trustworthy operator.

I had to replace my heater boiler. Mr Flickert came in, understood my urgency, accessed the issue and had the job done within days. His work came out amazing, his prices were beyond fair. I would highly recommend reaching out to him for any plumbing or heating needs. I will definitely be using him again for any future repairs
Bob gave me great counsel, and completed the installation on time and in an efficient manner. He is personable and professional!!!
Great experience,was clear on what he was doing and kept me updated.
Robert installed my water heater over the summer. Then I had a pipe come off my boiler (not related to his previous install). He came right out next morning and took care of the issue. Reasonably priced and even called that night and a few days later just to check to make sure everything was OK. Highly recommend
Did a great job, would hire again.
