W.T. Colpitts, Inc.

W.T. Colpitts is a Needham plumbing, heating and gasfitting shop the company says has been family-run since 1942 — more than 75 years in the same town. On Google the recent record is spotless: six reviews, all five stars, posted between late June and late August 2026, and the same two names keep showing up. One longtime customer, Nancy S., writes that she has used Rob since 1995 for everything from water heaters to faucets to bathroom fixture repairs, calling the work meticulous. Other reviewers single out Rob for being responsive and reliable on routine calls. On the bigger jobs, Cody and his team replaced a decades-old gas boiler with high-efficiency equipment, walking the homeowner through the new setup and fixing a wifi-thermostat glitch along the way; another review describes Cody's crew swapping out a bathroom vanity and installing a new double sink in a few hours, with praise for communication from the first text through job's end. Its BBB profile is A+ rated and accredited, with no complaints shown. Its BuildZoom listing credits the company with 542 recorded building permits, which points to a long working history beyond what the six visible reviews show on their own. One thing worth asking about directly: BuildZoom's directory listing shows two currently active Massachusetts plumbing licenses under the company alongside two marked inactive — those are the directory's own claims rather than a state registry verification, so it's worth confirming current license status before booking. For Needham-area plumbing and heating work — repairs, water heaters, boiler swaps, fixture installs — the recent reviews point to a shop that shows up, communicates, and gets it done in one visit. Given the review count is still modest, it's reasonable to ask about current licensing and get a written quote before the work starts.
