## The honest read

In a 2026 review, a customer said Tom fixed a burst valve in their well, that the part was not easy to source, and that he took his time to solve the issue.

In a 2020 review, a customer said Tom had been their plumber of choice for 7 years and had helped with pipes leaking under the sink, faucet replacement, a disposal install, broken valves, an emergency hot water radiator leak, back-flow preventer replacement for irrigation, and baseboard heat repair and replacement. That 2020 customer said that when Tom was busy he prioritized his jobs and told them when another emergency had to be taken care of first.

In a 2022 review, a customer said Tom answered all their questions in a way they could understand. In a 2018 review, a customer said Tom and crew replaced a water heater and were clean and efficient.

NH plumber license 1355 is expired on the state registry, with Vernon R Smith as the holder of record.

**Strengths:**
- Well valve repair — a 2026 customer said Tom fixed a burst valve
- Sink and heat repairs — a 2020 customer said Tom fixed leaks and baseboard heat
- Clear explanations — a 2022 customer said Tom answered questions understandably
- Water heater replacement — a 2018 customer said Tom and crew replaced one

**Concerns:**
- Plumber licence — license 1355 for Vernon R Smith is expired on the state registry
