Your mornings start with hot showers that don’t run cold. Your heating bills drop because your new system actually works efficiently. You stop worrying about breakdowns in the middle of January.
That’s what happens when your boiler installation is done right the first time. You get consistent heat distribution throughout your home, whether you’re heating the main floor or that chilly upstairs bedroom that never seemed warm enough.
The difference shows up in your monthly energy costs too. Modern high-efficiency boilers can reach up to 98% efficiency, which means almost every dollar you spend on fuel actually heats your home instead of disappearing through poor combustion or heat loss.
We’ve been serving Massachusetts homeowners since 2007. We started in new construction and made the shift to focus on service and repairs because that’s where we can make the biggest difference in people’s daily lives.
We’re the team Wellesley residents call when their heating system decides to quit on the coldest day of the year. Our trucks are stocked for same-day service, and we’re available 24/7 for emergencies because heating problems don’t wait for business hours.
What sets us apart is straightforward: we tell you the real cost upfront, we show up when we say we will, and we back our work with a full year warranty on labor. No games, no surprises, no excuses.
We start with a thorough assessment of your current system and your home’s heating needs. This isn’t a quick glance and a guess – we measure your space, check your existing connections, and determine the right size and type of boiler for your specific situation.
Next comes the removal of your old system. We handle all the disconnections, disposal, and prep work to get your space ready for the new installation. This includes any necessary updates to gas lines, electrical connections, or venting systems to meet current codes.
The installation itself involves precise connections to your existing radiators or baseboard heating, proper venting setup, and thorough testing of all safety systems. We don’t consider the job done until everything is running smoothly and you understand how to operate your new system. Before we leave, we walk you through the controls and schedule your first maintenance check.

Every boiler installation includes permit acquisition, proper disposal of your old system, and full compliance with Massachusetts building codes. We handle the paperwork so you don’t have to navigate municipal requirements or worry about inspection failures.
Your installation comes with our comprehensive warranty coverage: one full year on all labor and seven days on any drain cleaning work that’s part of the job. We also include a free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers, which helps identify potential issues before they become expensive problems.
Wellesley homes often have unique heating challenges due to the area’s mix of older and newer construction. We’re familiar with the common setup variations in this area, from homes with original cast iron radiators to newer baseboard systems. Our experience with local building requirements means we can navigate permit processes efficiently and ensure your installation meets all current safety standards without delays.
Boiler installation in the Wellesley area typically ranges from $4,300 to $6,700 for most residential projects, depending on the type and size of boiler you choose. This includes the unit, professional installation, permits, and removal of your old system.
The final cost depends on several factors: the fuel type (gas, oil, or electric), the efficiency rating you select, and any modifications needed to your existing heating system. High-efficiency models cost more upfront but can save 10-20% on your monthly heating bills.
We provide upfront pricing before any work begins, so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprise charges, no hidden fees, no “additional costs we discovered during installation.” The quote we give you is the price you pay.
Most boiler installations are completed in one day when we’re replacing a similar unit with existing connections. If your installation is straightforward – same location, same fuel type, compatible connections – we typically finish within 6-8 hours.
More complex installations can take 1-3 days. This happens when we need to relocate the boiler, switch fuel types, or upgrade electrical or gas lines to meet current codes. We’ll know during our initial assessment and give you an accurate timeline upfront.
We always schedule installations so someone can be home during the work. Since we’re working inside your house and need access to multiple areas, having someone available helps us work efficiently and address any questions that come up during the process.
Yes, boiler installation in Massachusetts requires proper permits, and we handle all the permit paperwork as part of our service. This includes building permits and any gas or electrical permits required by your local municipality.
Massachusetts also requires that anyone installing or servicing oil-burning equipment holds a valid Oil Burner Technician Certificate. Our technicians maintain all required certifications and stay current with state and local code requirements.
The permit process typically adds 1-2 days to project timelines, but it’s essential for safety and legal compliance. Proper permits also protect your homeowner’s insurance coverage and ensure your installation will pass any future home inspections if you decide to sell.
For Wellesley’s climate, high-efficiency gas boilers typically offer the best combination of performance and operating costs. These units achieve 90-98% efficiency ratings and work well with the area’s natural gas infrastructure.
Oil boilers are still common in some neighborhoods and burn hotter than gas, making them effective for New England winters. However, they require more maintenance and oil costs can fluctuate significantly. Electric boilers work for smaller homes but aren’t practical for most full-size houses in this area.
The right choice for your home depends on your existing fuel connections, your house size, and your heating distribution system. We assess these factors during our consultation and recommend the option that makes the most sense for your specific situation and budget.
Most residential boilers last 15-25 years with proper maintenance. However, you’ll typically start seeing signs that replacement makes sense around the 15-year mark, especially if repair costs are adding up.
Key indicators it’s time to replace include: needing repairs more than twice per year, your heating bills increasing despite similar usage, uneven heating throughout your home, or strange noises that keep coming back after repairs. Age alone isn’t always the deciding factor, but older systems become less efficient and more expensive to maintain.
If your boiler is over 15 years old and you’re facing a major repair (like a heat exchanger or control system replacement), replacement often makes more financial sense than continued repairs. Modern systems are significantly more efficient and reliable than units installed even 10-15 years ago.
We provide a comprehensive one-year warranty on all labor and installation work, plus a seven-day warranty on any drain cleaning services that are part of the installation process. This covers any issues related to our workmanship or installation procedures.
The boiler manufacturer provides additional warranty coverage on the unit itself, typically ranging from 5-10 years depending on the brand and model you choose. We help you understand what’s covered under manufacturer warranties and handle any warranty claims if issues arise.
Our warranty commitment means if something goes wrong with our installation work, we come back and fix it at no charge to you. We stand behind our work because we want you to have complete confidence in your heating system for years to come.
