A leak in the ceiling, and the source found within 2 minutes: a recent customer wrote that an old shower drain concrete seal had failed, and that Wetherbee Plumbing & Heating fixed it and has "a dry wall guy they recommend for patching up the 9 x 9 hole they had to cut." The company is a Milford, New Hampshire plumbing, heating, cooling and sewer/septic contractor on Route 101, and its website mentions a retail parts store open to the public. The website says Jim Wetherbee runs it and claims over 50 years of experience. Its New Hampshire plumber license is active on the state registry, and so is its New Hampshire HVAC license. A recent customer had mini splits installed and wrote that when one unit had a manufacturing defect, they returned to replace it at no cost. A recent customer reported a leaking expansion tank for the hot water heater and said it was replaced within an hour of the call. A 2026 customer wrote that Wetherbee installed a new Viessmann combination boiler/hot water heater, completed in one day. A 2025 customer said head plumber Patrick Kneeland put in AC with splits through an old house and painted electrical boxes so they blended with the exterior wood. A 2024 customer said it took less than an hour to assess the situation and open the main drain from the house to the street. A recent Reddit commenter called Weatherbee honest and professional. A 2025 customer gave 1 star over the $195 minimum charge, writing that they had been told the rate was $195 per hour but not that it was the minimum, and were charged for an hour for 15 to 20 minutes. A recent 3-star customer wrote that the company never added an outside clean out per the contract.
“\+1 for Weatherbee. Honest & professional.”
“We have used Weatherbee for multiple projects and they are our go to for all our projects”
“I used to work for Wetherbee great crew very knowledgeable and Jim the owner would go to the end of the world for his customers”
“If you have an issue, they will spend 10 minutes working on it before telling you that it needs to be replaced. I called Weatherbee for a second opinion on their work, and sure enough it was an easy fix that took maybe an hour. For service calls, Weatherbee is a little bit more expensive but they actually do their jobs.”
“I used to work in the industry. Heritage and Sanford are both owed by Private equity. Stay away from them unless you like overpaying for services. Lets add Milltown and Nashoba air and boiler works to that list. Joyce and Weatherbee are both legit.”
The boss man came through and I was blown away by their knowledge and service. Knew exactly what he was doing, super knowledgeable and high-level of expertise. Excited to hire this company and do business 🙏
Always great service. No hastles, clean, clean up afterwards and always gets the job done!
The team was hard working and honest. The office was very responsive and kept me informed every step of the way. We would clearly use them again. Owen was putstanding.
