The Plumbing Wizard

The Plumbing Wizard is a family operation — Brian Ellis founded it 12 years ago in Malden, MA, and now runs it together with his son Michael out of offices in Malden and Hampton, NH. Recent reviews back up the reputation the name promises. In the past few months, one customer called a difficult repair in a challenging location fast, fairly priced work, and another described calling about a heating expansion tank issue and having Michael on the phone and at the door promptly. A few weeks earlier, Mike and his team fixed a Combi boiler problem the customer called bizarre and hard to diagnose, then serviced the unit while they were there. The pattern goes back further than that. In a 2025 review, a homeowner described hiring them for a major renovation of a 125-year-old duplex and continuing to call them back afterward for routine maintenance like the hot water heater, praising work done "by the book" that makes inspections go smoothly. Another 2025 review recounts converting an aging oil-fired boiler to a high-efficiency propane system on a tight timeline. In a review posted in early 2026, one longtime customer said they had used Brian's services for almost a decade. There's nothing in the written record here to raise as a concern — every review on file is five stars, with no complaints. Since it's a two-person, father-and-son operation covering two states, it's worth checking their current schedule for anything time-sensitive. They're a solid call for plumbing and heating work, especially the kind that involves older houses, tricky diagnostics, or converting an aging heating system — and for homeowners who'd rather keep one company on call than shop around each time something breaks.
