T.J. Sillari Inc.

T.J. Sillari Inc. is a Somerville plumbing, heating, and gas contractor that says it's been taking calls across Greater Boston since 1985. A business directory names Anthony C. Sillari as the owner. The company's own site lists a wide service area — Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, Winchester, Watertown, Waltham, Lexington, Newton, Malden, Allston, and Brighton. The clearest recent account is a good one: this spring a customer said the water heater started leaking, they called at 10 a.m., and a new one was installed by 2 p.m. — the same review credits the crew with fixing faucets, showers, and toilets for several years running. But the same recent stretch also produced a one-star review calling the company unresponsive, with no further detail given. That split shows up in the numbers too: Google shows a 4-star average from a dozen ratings, while the small set of reviews collected reads closer to even between praise and complaint. Its Massachusetts plumbing license, 12761-PL-M, checks out as active in the state registry. Other directories float different numbers for the business — a BuildZoom listing cites 6106 and 2315P among several license figures — so it's worth confirming the exact license on your paperwork rather than assuming from a single site. The BBB has no rating on file and hasn't accredited the business, though it separately notes a long, 68-year operating history. For a same-day plumbing or heating fix around Somerville, the recent track record leans positive, but with so few reviews to go on, it's worth getting a firm response commitment and confirming the license number before booking.
