A Little Compton family business since 1978

David “Zeke” Wordell started Sakonnet Plumbing & Heating in 1978. His reputation for honesty and service is still what the company is built on.

Today Zeke’s grandson David Wordell and Steve Furtado run the business, with Zeke’s son Sidney still a partner. We’ve kept our small-town way of working while handling everything from large residential projects to a single homeowner’s leak.

Our crew of master and apprentice plumbers is licensed in Rhode Island and Massachusetts and keeps up with continuing education on the latest plumbing and heating equipment.
