Residential & Commercial Plumbing

Brodeur & Sons handles plumbing work for homes and businesses across Dartmouth, New Bedford, Fairhaven, and the rest of the South Coast. Our team is led by Master Plumber Robert Sullivan (NU ’95), who has been running the plumbing side of the business since 2020. Whether it’s a leaking faucet or a full bathroom remodel, we show up on time, give you a straight price before we start, and clean up when we’re done.

Plumbing Repair & Maintenance

Leaky faucets, running toilets, slow drains, and burst pipes don’t wait for a convenient time. We repair and maintain all plumbing fixtures including sinks, toilets, faucets, showers, whirlpool tubs, and sump pumps. If you’ve got a water drainage problem that keeps coming back, we’ll diagnose the root cause and fix it right instead of patching it over. For emergencies, call 508-980-2664 and we’ll get someone out to you.

Water Heater Installation & Repair

A failing water heater usually gives you warning signs: rusty water, popping noises, inconsistent temperatures, or puddles around the base. We repair and replace both tank and tankless water heaters. If your unit is over 10 years old and giving you trouble, replacement is usually the smarter move. We’ll walk you through your options and give you a written estimate before any work starts.

Kitchen & Bathroom Remodeling

Remodeling a kitchen or bathroom means moving water supply lines, drain lines, and sometimes gas lines. We handle the plumbing side of remodels from rough-in to finish, coordinating with your contractor if you have one. We work on projects across the South Coast, from older homes in New Bedford’s north end to newer builds out in Dartmouth and Westport.

Gas Line Installation

We install gas lines for barbeque grills, gas fireplaces, and gas-powered appliances. Gas line work requires a licensed professional, and all our gas installations are done to Massachusetts code and inspected before use. If you’re looking to add a gas line to your outdoor kitchen or convert a fireplace, give us a call at 508-980-2664.

Water Pipes, Sump Pumps & Water Softeners

Older South Coast homes often have aging water pipes that need repair or replacement. We handle water service lines, interior pipe repairs, and full repiping when needed. We also install and repair sump pumps to keep your basement dry during heavy rain and spring thaw, and water softeners for homes dealing with hard water. If your heating system ties into your plumbing (like a boiler or radiant heat setup), we coordinate with our HVAC team so everything works together.

Plumbing Services FAQ

Do you offer emergency plumbing service?

+

Yes. If you have a burst pipe, major leak, or any plumbing emergency, call us at 508-980-2664. We serve Dartmouth, New Bedford, Fairhaven, and the rest of the South Coast. A burst pipe in a Massachusetts winter can cause serious water damage fast, so we treat these calls as a priority. We'll get a licensed plumber to your home as quickly as possible.

How much does it cost to replace a water heater?

+

Water heater replacement in the South Coast area typically runs between $1,500 and $3,500 for a standard tank unit, including removal of the old one. Tankless water heaters cost more upfront but use less energy over time. The final price depends on the type of unit, size, fuel source, and any code-required upgrades to venting or piping. Brodeur & Sons provides a written estimate before any work starts so there are no surprises. Call 508-980-2664 to schedule an assessment.

Do you handle kitchen and bathroom remodeling plumbing?

+

Yes. We handle all the plumbing work involved in kitchen and bathroom remodels, from moving water supply and drain lines to installing new fixtures. If you're working with a general contractor, we coordinate directly with them. If you just need the plumbing side done, we handle that too. We work on remodels in older New Bedford homes, newer Dartmouth construction, and everything in between across the South Coast.

Can you install a gas line for my grill or fireplace?

+

Yes. We install gas lines for outdoor grills, gas fireplaces, and gas-powered appliances. All gas line work is done to Massachusetts code by a licensed professional and inspected before use. If you're adding an outdoor kitchen or converting a wood-burning fireplace to gas, call us at 508-980-2664 for a quote. Gas line work is not a DIY job and requires proper permitting.
