York Plumbing & Drains

York Plumbing & Drains is a one-person shop Greg York has run since 2007, working out of Nahant after years based in Winthrop. Its Better Business Bureau profile focuses on the emergency side of the trade — clogged drains, rooter service, video pipe inspection, water heater replacement — alongside general plumbing installation and repair, and it carries an A+ BBB grade with no complaints on file. The permit record on BuildZoom goes back further: in 2013–2019, jobs ran to bathroom fixture and piping work, a basement kitchen sink, second-floor tub/lav/toilet installations, and gas cook-stove hookups across West Newton, Newtonville, Newton Center, Everett and Beverly. There are no customer reviews on either platform, so that older permit history and the clean BBB record are what's available to go on. BuildZoom separately lists a Massachusetts journeyman plumber license, #32558, that it has not itself verified, showing an expiration date of May 2026 — worth confirming directly before booking, since BuildZoom's own status hasn't been checked against the state board. For drain and emergency plumbing calls in particular, the long-running BBB standing is the strongest thing on record; there's just not a deep or recent written history of completed jobs to point to.
