Boiler Repair & Installation in the DC Metro Area
Your boiler is the heart of your home’s heat — and when it struggles, the whole house feels it. We repair and install residential boilers — traditional and tankless — across the DC metro area, and we maintain them so a small problem in the fall doesn’t become a no-heat call in January. If your heat is out, uneven, or just not acting right, call (301) 971-4884.
Signs your boiler needs attention
- No heat, or some rooms heating and others staying cold
- Strange noises — banging, whistling, or gurgling from the boiler or the pipes
- A boiler that won’t hold pressure, or pressure that keeps climbing
- Water leaking or pooling around the boiler
- Heating bills climbing while the house feels colder
- The boiler firing up, shutting off, and firing up again in short cycles
- An older boiler that needed more than one repair last winter
Boiler repair
We find exactly what’s wrong, explain it, and repair what’s repairable.
Boiler installation & replacement
When a boiler is at the end of its life, a right-sized replacement fitted to your home beats another winter of repair calls. We remove the old unit, install the new one, and walk you through how it runs before we leave. We install traditional boilers and tankless boilers — compact, wall-mounted units that can run your home’s heating and supply your hot water from a single appliance. Our 2-year parts & labor warranty covers every part we supply and install.
Boiler maintenance
A yearly once-over catches the small problems before they become a no-heat call in January: we check the boiler over, make sure it’s running the way it should, and flag anything that’s wearing out while there’s still time to plan for it. Fall is the right time — before the first cold snap puts every boiler in the area to the test at once.
Boiler questions we hear
Q: How long does a boiler last?
A: It depends on the type, the maintenance it has had, and how hard it works — many residential boilers run for decades. The honest answer for your unit comes from its age, its condition, and its repair history, which is exactly what we look at before recommending repair or replacement.
Q: What is a tankless boiler?
A: A tankless boiler — often called a combi boiler — is a compact, wall-mounted unit that heats water when it’s called for instead of keeping a big tank hot around the clock. One unit can run your home’s heating and supply your hot water. Whether one fits your home depends on your heating system and how much hot water you use — we’ll tell you straight if it does.
Deciding between repair and replacement
Q: Repair or replace — how do I decide?
A: Start with age and pattern. A newer boiler with one clear fault is usually a repair. An older boiler that needed repeated repairs last winter, heats unevenly, or costs more to run every year is often telling you it’s done. We’ll lay out both options with the reasoning, and the decision stays yours.
Q: Do you offer emergency boiler service after hours?
A: Our hours are Monday to Friday, 8 to 5. If your heat goes out after hours, leave us a message — we check messages after hours too, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can. If it’s a gas smell, leave the house and call 911 or your gas utility first.
Q: When should maintenance be done?
A: Once a year, ideally in the fall before heating season. That’s when small issues are cheapest to catch and when there’s no cold house pressuring the decision.
