Belmont Plumbing Company Since 2007

Eighteen Years of Getting It Right
We’ve been serving Belmont residents since 2007. We’ve installed hundreds of boilers in homes just like yours throughout the area. We know Belmont’s housing stock. Many homes here were built between the 1920s and 1960s, which means we’ve seen every type of heating system configuration you can imagine. We understand the unique challenges of working in older homes while meeting modern efficiency standards. Our approach is straightforward: upfront pricing, quality work, and warranties that back up what we do. No surprises, no excuses, just reliable heating when you need it most.

Boiler Replacement Process Belmont

From Assessment to Warm House
We start with a thorough assessment of your current system and your home’s heating needs. You’ll get upfront pricing before any work begins – no estimates that magically grow once we start. Next, we handle the removal of your old boiler and prepare the space for the new system. We protect your floors and belongings, because we know this is your home, not a construction site. The new boiler installation follows manufacturer specifications and local codes. We test everything thoroughly, walk you through the new system’s operation, and clean up completely. You’ll have heat the same day, plus documentation of your 1-year labor warranty.

What's Included in Your Installation
Your boiler replacement includes complete removal of the old system, professional installation of the new boiler, and all necessary connections to your existing heating distribution system. We handle permits, inspections, and code compliance. Belmont’s mix of older and newer homes means we’re experienced with both cast iron radiator systems and modern baseboard heating. We’ll match your new boiler to your existing distribution system for optimal performance. You also get our 1-year labor warranty, system startup and testing, and a walkthrough of your new boiler’s operation. For new customers, we include a free main sewer line camera inspection to help you stay ahead of potential plumbing issues.

How long does a boiler replacement take in Belmont?

Most boiler replacements in Belmont take one full day, typically 6-8 hours depending on your home’s setup. Older homes sometimes present access challenges that can extend the timeline slightly. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your routine. You’ll have heat restored the same day in most cases. If complications arise that require additional time, we’ll discuss options to keep you comfortable, including temporary heating solutions if needed. The timeline includes removing your old boiler, installing the new system, connecting all components, testing for proper operation, and cleanup. We don’t rush the job – proper installation prevents problems later.
Boiler sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window efficiency, and heating distribution system. Many Belmont homes built before 1970 need larger capacity boilers due to less efficient insulation and older windows. We perform a heat loss calculation during our assessment. This involves measuring your home’s heated spaces, evaluating insulation, and considering factors like ceiling height and exposure. Oversizing wastes energy and money; undersizing leaves you cold. Most Belmont homes between 1,500-2,500 square feet need boilers in the 80,000-120,000 BTU range, but your specific needs may vary significantly. We size each system individually rather than guessing based on your old boiler’s capacity.
Yes, replacing your boiler before complete failure saves you money and stress. Emergency replacements during winter often cost more due to limited availability and urgent timing pressures. Signs it’s time include frequent repairs, uneven heating, rising energy bills, or a system over 15-20 years old. Boilers that need repairs multiple times per heating season are telling you something important. Planning your replacement during warmer months gives you more options for equipment selection and scheduling. You can take advantage of manufacturer rebates and utility incentives that might not be available during peak heating season emergencies.
Yes, we handle all permits and coordinate required inspections with Belmont’s building department. This includes the initial permit application, scheduling inspections, and ensuring all work meets local codes. Belmont requires permits for boiler replacements, and the installation must pass inspection before you can legally operate your new system. We’re familiar with local requirements and inspector expectations. You don’t need to deal with paperwork or worry about code compliance. We handle the administrative details so you can focus on enjoying your new heating system. All permit costs are included in our upfront pricing.
Repairs make sense for newer boilers with isolated problems, while replacement is better for systems over 15 years old with multiple issues or major component failures. The decision often comes down to cost-effectiveness and reliability. If repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Multiple repairs within a heating season indicate systemic problems that won’t improve with patches. We’ll give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement serves you better. Sometimes a $300 repair buys you several more years; other times spending that money on repairs just delays the inevitable while leaving you with an unreliable system.
We provide a 1-year labor warranty on all boiler installation work, covering any issues related to our workmanship. This is separate from manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself, which typically range from 5-10 years. Our labor warranty covers installation-related problems like leaks, connection issues, or performance problems caused by improper installation. If something goes wrong due to our work, we fix it at no charge. Equipment warranties vary by manufacturer but generally cover parts for several years. We’ll explain both warranty coverages when we provide your estimate, so you understand exactly what’s protected and for how long.
