Shawn Peabody is one of the worst plumbers/HVAC guys you could ever have the misfortune to meet. I moved into a house which, unfortunately, had a heating system installed by this man. From the previous homeowner's paperwork, he had installed this new heating system just under a year before I took ownership. A brand new system and ONE year after being in the house I started to have issues with leaking pipes that weren't soldered together correctly, among other issues. I contacted Shawn and he told me he wouldn't service the system. He said he remembered the address, said the family that hired him was "nice," but he wouldn't service it. He was extremely rude on the phone, he said he was in an attic and "didn't have time for this." He hung up on me before I could even finish explaining the issue. It almost sounded like he recalled the job a little too well. I called several months later when I could not find one other person in Western Massachusetts to fix his mess because there were so many things wrong with how he piped the boiler, etc. This call was made in the dead of winter on the coldest night of the year, 2 degrees Farenheight, when I had my six month old son freezing practically to death. It was 50 degrees in my house, the heat was not working at all and one of my water pipes was now frozen. He answered the phone and as soon as I started to explain my problem to him he hung up on me! I called back, as I was desperate for help and he had his wife answer the phone and tell me that he would not be able to help me. I asked her if they had kids and how she would feel if she had a new baby in a house with no heat and the twenty people she called to fix it had no idea how because her husband did some very specific things to the system. She mumbled something about trying to talk to him and then she said a quick goodbye and hung up. Not only is he poor at his trade, he's a heartless jerk! I explained the situation to a master plumber who was eventually able to solve the issues I had with the system but not after much trouble. He told me that he's met many people in the area that have a complaint about this guy, that he does a lot of "hit and run" jobs. I write this hoping to save some poor person from getting involved with this guy. He will not help you! He wants to make his money on a quick hack job and get out, never to return. RUN, don't walk, when you hear this guys name. read more
