## The honest read

A leak that turned out to be more than a leak: one customer called Garey about what they thought was a small drip, and said he dug deeper and fixed some pipes that, left alone, would have led to far bigger damage. Tibbetts Heating & Repair handles heating and plumbing work, and its website says it serves Mexico, Rumford, Dixfield and all of Western Maine, listing Bethel, Peru, Canton, Norway, Oxford and other towns in its service area. It holds a 4.9-star Google rating from 10 ratings.

Garey T. Tibbetts holds a Maine HVAC license, number MS30023750, active on the state registry.

A customer who called on a Sunday with a plumbing problem said he arrived within an hour and a half and helped resolve it for a reasonable price. A furnace customer said the company got the furnace cleaned and ready for the next season and plans to use them again. A customer said their heat pump runs much better after a service visit. One homeowner wrote that Garey shares what he knows about maintaining equipment and that they learned a lot from him about their plumbing and heating systems. A customer said their issues were repaired correctly the first time, as inexpensively as possible.

**Strengths:**
- A deeper leak fix — Garey found and fixed pipes headed for bigger damage
- A Sunday plumbing call — a customer said he arrived within 1.5 hours
- Knowledge shared — a homeowner learned a lot about their heating and plumbing
- Furnace season prep — a customer's furnace was cleaned and readied for the season
