Boiler Repair & Installation in Wilkes-Barre, PA

Boiler not heating? Leaking? Making noises? We fix steam and hot water boilers throughout the Wyoming Valley. All brands, 24/7.

What we fix

A lot of older homes in the Wyoming Valley still run on boilers, and they're great systems when they're maintained. But when a boiler quits in the middle of a January cold snap, you need someone who knows what they're doing.

We work on steam and hot water boilers, gas, oil and coal fired, all major brands. Leaks, pressure problems, noisy pipes, faulty valves, radiators that won't heat up. Our Master Licensed technicians have seen it all and can diagnose the problem fast.

Boilers around here burn all sorts of things. We service oil-fired boilers, and we still work on coal boilers, including stoker units, which a lot of companies in the area stopped touching years ago. If yours burns oil or coal, it is a normal call for us.

Thinking about replacing an old, inefficient boiler? We'll give you the straight story on whether it's worth fixing or time to upgrade. And if it is time, we'll help you pick a system that fits your home and budget.

Frequently asked questions

How long do boilers last?

A well-maintained boiler can last 15 to 30 years, depending on the type and how well it's been serviced. Steam boilers tend to last longer than hot water boilers. Regular annual maintenance is key to maximizing your boiler's lifespan.

What are common boiler problems?

Common issues include loss of pressure, leaks from valves or pipes, no heat or hot water, strange noises like banging or gurgling, frozen condensate pipes in winter, and pilot light or ignition failures. Our technicians are experienced in diagnosing and repairing all of these.

Should I repair or replace my boiler?

If your boiler is over 15 years old and needs frequent repairs, replacement is often more cost-effective. Newer models are significantly more energy-efficient. Our Master Licensed technicians will give you an honest assessment and explain your options.

Do you service both steam and hot water boilers?

Yes! Our technicians work on both steam and hot water boiler systems, gas, oil and coal fired. We service all major brands and handle everything from routine maintenance to complete boiler replacement and installation.

Do you work on oil and coal boilers?

Yes. We service and repair oil-fired boilers, including burner cleanings, and we still work on coal boilers, stoker and hand-fired alike. Wyoming Valley homes were largely built around coal heat, and a fair number never converted. Those systems need someone who has actually worked on them, and we have kept that knowledge in the shop.

How often should my boiler be serviced?

We recommend annual boiler maintenance, ideally before the heating season. Regular service includes cleaning, inspecting safety controls, checking pressure levels, and identifying worn parts before they cause a breakdown, keeping your home safe and warm all winter.
