Strictly Service Plumbing and Heating is a plumbing and heating business associated with Chris Comeau. BBB lists a Worcester address at 36 Woodland Street and names Chris as owner; Angi and HomeAdvisor list the service in Oakham, with drains, plumbing, water heaters, and free estimates. The strongest recent account is a December 2025 Google review praising Chris's responsiveness, expertise, and clean work. A July 2024 review describes a prompt, professional gas-water-heater installation, while a January 2024 homeowner described a leaking water heater, a next-day replacement, removal of the old unit, and a fair all-inclusive quote. Those newer accounts sit alongside much older Angi and HomeAdvisor reviews from 2010, so the earlier jobs are useful history rather than a current service guarantee. The older accounts are mixed. Several describe quick callbacks, next-morning well-pump service, reasonable pricing, and a return visit to clear pipes. Two documented complaints describe unresolved well-pressure issues and a water-heater installation that left a washer hose out of the drain line; one older Sunday emergency account says the company could not make a same-day visit but talked the homeowners through stopping the problem. For a current plumbing or water-heater job, confirm the exact service address, license, scope, return-visit policy, and all-inclusive price before booking. The Worcester and Oakham location references should be clarified when you call.
Chris was incredibly responsive in getting us the help we needed as soon as possible. He is an expert and so appreciated his insights and clean, well-done work.
Chris was fantastic! He installed a gas water heater and he was prompt and professional. I'm going to use him in the future because it was such a great experience.
It’s the middle of winter, and our old water heater started leaking out of nowhere. We quickly unplugged it and turned it off, unprepared for life without hot water. After looking through local plumbers, we called Strictly Service, and connected with Chris right away. He asked about our setup and had us text pictures of our leaky behemoth. The bad news: after 20 years, it was time to say goodbye and replace it with a new water heater. The good news: Chris could come next day, get the new one installed, and take the old one away. Chris provided a fair, all-inclusive quote, and the next morning, he showed up on time, with the new water heater ready to go. He finished the job in less than 2 hours, and we had hot water again. This time with a newer, shinier water heater. Based on our experience, we’d definitely recommend Chris for any plumbing projects for his professionalism, honesty, and punctuality.
Strictly Servoce Plumbing and Heating is wonderful! I had a plumbing emergency on a Sunday during a super cold weekend. After spending an hour on the phone trying to get someone to help (with no luck) I called Strictly Service Plumbing and Heating. They weren't able to make a service call that day but spent a long time on the phone with my boyfriend and I walking us through the problem. We were able to stop the emergency and he helped us learn more about our furnace! He was so patient and kind. We will absolutely be calling back next time we need a plumber!
