We’ve handled heating and plumbing projects throughout Wayland since 2007. We understand Massachusetts gas codes and work directly with National Grid for seamless conversions.
Our licensed, insured plumbers specialize in oil to gas conversions for Wayland’s mix of colonial and contemporary homes. We know which neighborhoods already have gas lines and how to navigate local permitting efficiently.
Wayland homeowners choose us because we handle everything from permits to final inspection. Upfront pricing means no surprise charges when the job’s done. We’re not satisfied until your new system runs perfectly.
We start with a comprehensive assessment of your current oil system and verify natural gas availability on your street. Most established Wayland neighborhoods have gas lines already installed.
Next, we coordinate with National Grid for meter installation and gas line connections. We handle all Wayland building permits and utility scheduling so you don’t have to make multiple phone calls or wait around for inspectors.
Our certified gas technicians remove your old oil equipment and install the new gas burner or furnace. We test every component, adjust settings for optimal efficiency, and teach you how to operate your new system. Most conversions complete within 1-2 days once gas service is active.

Your conversion includes removing old oil equipment, installing new gas components, and connecting to your existing radiators or ductwork. We obtain all required Wayland permits and schedule necessary inspections.
Many Wayland homes in established areas like Cochituate and Town Center already have natural gas infrastructure. We work with National Grid to ensure proper meter sizing and safe connections to your home’s gas line.
We also coordinate oil tank removal if needed and can recommend licensed environmental services. Every installation includes our 1-year labor warranty plus ongoing support for any questions about operating your new gas heating system.
Conversion costs typically range from $3,500 to $8,000 depending on your current heating system and any gas line work needed. Most Wayland homes in established neighborhoods already have natural gas available, which keeps costs reasonable.
The investment pays for itself within 3-5 years through fuel savings. Natural gas costs about 40-60% less than heating oil, so a typical 2,000 square foot Wayland home saves $800-1,500 per heating season.
We provide detailed upfront pricing after evaluating your specific situation. No hidden fees, change orders, or surprise charges when the work is complete.
Most oil heating systems can be converted by replacing the burner unit while keeping your existing boiler or furnace. This approach costs less than complete system replacement while delivering significant efficiency improvements.
However, heating systems over 20 years old often benefit from full replacement. Modern gas equipment achieves 90-96% efficiency compared to older oil systems running at 60-80% efficiency.
We’ll evaluate your current equipment and explain your options clearly. Sometimes spending a bit more upfront for complete replacement delivers better long-term value and reliability.
The actual conversion work takes 1-2 days once natural gas service reaches your home. The complete process including utility coordination typically takes 2-4 weeks due to National Grid scheduling requirements.
Most established Wayland neighborhoods already have gas mains installed, which speeds up the connection process significantly. New developments or rural areas may require additional time for gas line extensions.
We handle all permit applications with Wayland’s building department and coordinate inspections. You don’t need to take time off work to deal with paperwork or wait for multiple inspector visits.
Natural gas heating is extremely safe when installed by licensed professionals using proper equipment and safety protocols. Modern gas systems include automatic shutoffs, pressure regulators, and multiple safety features.
Natural gas includes a distinctive odorant so you can immediately detect any leaks. Underground gas lines eliminate risks associated with oil truck deliveries, tank fills, and above-ground storage.
Our certified gas technicians follow all Massachusetts safety codes and Wayland building requirements. Every installation undergoes inspection by local authorities before activation to ensure complete compliance and safety.
Yes, Wayland homebuyers strongly prefer natural gas heating over oil systems. Gas heating represents convenience, lower operating costs, and modern efficiency that buyers actively seek.
Converting now eliminates a potential obstacle during future sales. Buyers won’t need to factor conversion costs into their offers or worry about dealing with oil heating systems.
Local real estate professionals consistently report that Wayland homes with natural gas heating sell faster and often command higher prices than comparable properties with oil heating systems.
Massachusetts discontinued Mass Save rebates for gas equipment in 2024, but National Grid and local utilities sometimes offer conversion incentives. These programs change frequently based on state energy policies.
Even without rebates, fuel cost savings make conversion financially beneficial for most Wayland homeowners. The typical payback period remains 3-5 years based on heating bill reductions alone.
We stay current on available utility programs and financing options. We’ll identify any applicable incentives when providing your conversion estimate, though the long-term savings justify conversion regardless of rebate availability.
