Comprehensive Boiler Services Melrose

Every System, Every Problem
Our boiler repair services handle every system type in Melrose homes—gas, oil, electric, steam, hot water, and combination units. We service both residential and commercial properties, from single-family homes to apartment buildings. Melrose’s housing mix means we see everything from 1920s cast iron boilers to modern condensing units. Each has specific maintenance needs and failure patterns. Experience matters when your heat goes out at 10 PM on a Sunday in January. With Massachusetts heating costs running 65% above the national average, efficiency isn’t optional. A properly repaired boiler can save you hundreds per winter compared to a system limping along with worn parts and poor combustion.

How much does emergency boiler repair cost in Melrose?

Emergency boiler repair in Melrose typically runs $300-$800, depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple fixes like thermostat replacement or pilot light issues cost less. Major component failures like heat exchanger problems cost more. You get upfront pricing before we start any work. No surprise charges or hourly fees that keep climbing. Our 24/7 emergency service doesn’t include premium charges just because it’s after hours or weekends. Most emergency repairs finish in one visit. We stock common parts on our trucks and maintain relationships with local suppliers for same-day delivery when specialized components are needed.
Call immediately if you smell gas around your boiler, hear loud banging or grinding noises, or notice the pilot light won’t stay lit. These indicate dangerous conditions requiring professional attention right away. Other urgent signs include complete heat loss, water leaking around the unit, or strange burning smells. If your carbon monoxide detector activates, evacuate immediately and call emergency services, then us. Less urgent but important signs include uneven heating, unusually high energy bills, or frequent cycling on and off. These won’t leave you without heat immediately, but they worsen and become more expensive if ignored.
Most boiler repairs take 2-4 hours, depending on the problem and parts availability. Simple repairs like thermostat replacement or burner cleaning often finish in under 2 hours. Complex issues like pump or control system replacement can take most of a day. We arrive with common parts already stocked, completing most repairs without delays. For specialized parts, we maintain same-day delivery relationships with local suppliers, so even complex repairs rarely require multiple visits. Emergency calls get priority scheduling, especially during cold weather. We understand that losing heat in a Melrose winter isn’t just uncomfortable—it threatens your pipes and your family’s safety.
Yes, we service all boiler types found in Melrose homes: gas, oil, electric, steam, hot water, and combination units. Our technicians train on both older systems and modern high-efficiency models from all major manufacturers. Melrose’s diverse housing stock runs from Victorian homes with original cast iron boilers to new construction with condensing units. Each system type has specific maintenance needs and common failure points, making experience crucial in this field. We also handle commercial boilers in apartment buildings, small businesses, and institutional properties. Whether residential or large commercial, we have the expertise and equipment for proper repairs.
All boiler repairs include a 1-year labor warranty covering our workmanship. If the same problem recurs within a year due to our work, we return and fix it at no charge. Parts warranties vary by manufacturer, but most components we install carry 1-3 year manufacturer coverage. We use quality parts from reputable suppliers, not cheap alternatives that fail quickly and create repeat problems. Our warranty is comprehensive and straightforward—no fine print or exclusions designed to avoid coverage. We stand behind our work because we’re confident in our technicians’ skills and the quality parts we install.
Absolutely. Annual boiler maintenance prevents most emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running efficiently. During maintenance visits, we clean burners, test safety controls, check for leaks, and adjust combustion for optimal performance. Proper maintenance extends your boiler’s lifespan by years and significantly reduces heating costs. A well-maintained boiler burns fuel more efficiently—crucial in Massachusetts where heating costs already run high. We offer maintenance agreements including annual service, priority emergency scheduling, and repair discounts. Most insurance companies and boiler warranties require annual professional maintenance, so our service protects those coverages too.
