About
At LAE Plumbing and Heating we know life ain’t always easy, but when it comes to your plumbing and heating, it can be with just one phone call. I know that no one likes a stranger coming into their house for any reason, so let me introduce myself to you. My name is Joseph DePietro, I grew up in Saugus, Ma and graduated from Malden Catholic High School. I enlisted in the Marine Corps in 2007 and did two deployments, one to Iraq and one to Afghanistan. I’m a third generation licensed plumber with over 20 years experience, and my family has been taking care of the plumbing needs of the north shore for over 50 years.

My toilet quit working so messaged LAE plumbing. Joseph answered very quickly. Gave a reasonable quote and had it fixed the same day. He was very professional and I will be using him again. Can’t recommend him enough!

Outstanding Plumber – Honest, Thorough, and Reliable I connected with Joey late last night—close to midnight—after discovering a serious leak in our basement. Despite the hour, he responded with kindness and professionalism, offering to come by first thing in the morning at 7am. True to his word, he showed up on time, ready to help. Joey took the time to methodically investigate the issue, walking us through each step of the process and explaining what he was doing and why. He was patient, respectful, and clearly committed to finding the root cause—not just a quick fix. His pricing was fair, and his work ethic truly stood out. After a thorough inspection, he left to get supplies, came back, and actually discovered the source of the issue from outside. He went back to the store again to get the right parts and fixed everything so neatly you’d never know any cutting or patching had been done. It looks seamless! Joey is the kind of professional you hope to find but rarely do—honest, helpful, and highly skilled. I wouldn’t hesitate to call him again and strongly recommend him to anyone in need of plumbing services. Thank you Joey!

Details: Yes, repair is urgent • Clogging • Leaking (problem area unknown) • House

Joseph was great to work with. From setting up the appt to dealing with some unexpected twists in the job, he handled it all calmly and kept me in the loop on what was happening. Nice guy too. Look forward to getting him to work on some other plumbing projects at our place in the future.

Details: 1 sink • Separate handles control hot and cold water • 1 faucet • A few weeks ago
