Dead River Company is known for its reliability in delivering propane, heating oil, and kerosene to homes and businesses in Northern New England. They offer energy-saving solutions and install high-efficiency heating equipment, while providing 24-hour emergency service for their customers' peace of mind. The company has a strong focus on doing things right and treating customers well, with staff who show up when promised, keep work areas clean, and explain the work being done. Customers have shared positive experiences with the company's responsiveness and helpful staff, especially during transitions like switching from natural gas to propane, which was made simple and stress-free. The technicians are praised for being kind, courteous, and knowledgeable, with one recent technician explaining boiler issues clearly and offering helpful tips. Management supports their technicians to ensure proper work without cutting corners, and the company values training and mentorship to improve service quality. While most reviews highlight reliable and friendly service, some customers have experienced less positive moments, such as being charged over $400 for boiler service due to technician delays and long hold times with tech support.

Overall, Dead River Company is appreciated for its dependable service, professional staff, and commitment to doing the job right, with ongoing efforts to improve customer communication and service coverage.
We recently thought we smelled propane gas and called them up. They immediately sent someone out at no charge to inspect for a leak.
It turned out we had simply run out of propane.
Even though there is typically a 7-day delivery window, they managed to get a truck to us in just two days to fill our tank.

She's helping us up on their automatic delivery program, explaining that if we ever happen to run out while on this plan, any related fees are completely waived.
We truly appreciate.

Overall, very satisfied with the service and would definitely recommend him to anyone needing heating repairs
I came into the trades because I wanted meaningful work, and this place delivers. The culture is safety-first and do-it-right, not “hurry up and hope.” My truck is stocked, the support line actually answers, and if a job needs extra time to be done properly, management backs the techs. That matters.
What I love most is how we treat customers -show up when we say we will, keep the work area clean, explain what we’re doing, and leave things better than we found them.
