HVAC & Plumbing Services in Dover, MA

Our Newton shop is roughly 20 minutes from Dover Center through Needham, and our Franklin shop covers the south end of our territory. For no heat, no cooling, or an active leak, call the emergency line at (508) 470-4590. That line is answered around the clock, and we staff it heavily from December through February, when most heating emergencies happen.

Yes for most replacement and installation work. The Town of Dover Building Department handles building permits, and its gas and plumbing inspector and wiring inspector cover the rest, so a single heating replacement can involve more than one permit. Massachusetts requires a licensed contractor to pull those permits, not the homeowner. We file them, schedule the inspections, and follow the job through to final sign-off.

It depends on the fuel, the system type, and how much of the existing ductwork or piping can stay. Swapping a furnace in a home with sound ductwork is the low end. Replacing a steam boiler in an antique Dover farmhouse costs more, and a full heat pump conversion in a larger home is higher still before rebates. We price the real job after seeing the real basement, and you get the number in writing before any work begins.

We see this all the time in Dover, from antique colonials near Dover Center to older farmhouses on the outer roads. Ductless mini splits are usually the answer: one outdoor unit feeding indoor heads in the rooms that matter, with no soffits and no lost closet space. High velocity small duct systems are the other option when you want the look of central air and have some chase space to work with. Both cool in summer, and heat pump versions heat in winter too.

Yes. Plenty of older Dover homes still heat with steam or with gravity hot water that was converted decades ago, and those systems need a technician who has real experience with them. We service, repair and replace both, and we will tell you honestly when a well-kept old boiler has years left versus when it is time to plan the replacement.

Dover homes are served by the Mass Save program, and qualifying air source heat pump installations are eligible for rebates and the 0% HEAT Loan. The amount depends on whether you are converting the whole home or part of it, what you are replacing, and your household eligibility. Rebate levels change from year to year, so we confirm current amounts for your specific project before you commit.

All of it, from Dover Center out to the Sherborn, Medfield, Walpole and Westwood lines. That includes homes along Centre Street, Farm Street, Dedham Street, Springdale Avenue and Pine Street, and the neighborhoods near Noanet Woodlands and the Charles River. ZIP code 02030.

All of it, under one company. Heating and cooling, kitchen and bathroom plumbing, tankless water heaters, electrical service and panel upgrades, and indoor air quality. That matters most on bigger projects: a heat pump conversion in a larger Dover home often needs an electrical panel upgrade, and coordinating that yourself across two contractors is where projects stall.
