Water Heater Service for Boston homes

Repair and replacement for both tank and tankless systems. Not every failing heater needs replacing — a thermocouple, element, or valve is often the actual fault, and we will tell you which it is.

Most of our Boston work is in Dorchester, South Boston and the neighborhoods south of downtown, dispatched from our Quincy office minutes up Route 93. Triple-deckers and rowhouses with original cast-iron stacks, shared sewer laterals, and basement water heaters that serve three units at once are the everyday call here.

When to call us

  • Hot water that runs out much faster than it used to
  • Rusty or discolored hot water
  • Water pooling around the base of the tank
  • Rumbling or popping from sediment build-up
