HVAC & Plumbing Services in Uxbridge, MA
Comfort for an Older House, With Equipment Placed Out of Street View
Your house should be warm in January, cool in July and ready with hot water at the tap.
Uxbridge was incorporated in 1727, and the town has a Historic District Commission that looks after exteriors within its district. From our Franklin shop, Uxbridge center is about 25 minutes away. A licensed technician visits, plans where the equipment will sit, tracks down the cause, and tells you the price before touching anything.
Leave a name and number, and we call back with a set arrival time at your Uxbridge home.

No heat and no cooling calls
Cool the Upstairs of Your Uxbridge House and Leave the Old Walls Alone
Bedrooms under the roof that stay warm until midnight. Window units rattling in old sashes. A central AC that runs from noon on and still falls behind. These are the cooling complaints we hear in Uxbridge. Often the cure is better sizing or layout, not more power. Before any repair or replacement, we measure the house.
AC Installation & Replacement
The cooling plan should come from your floor plan. We walk the house, calculate the load for each room, and lay your choices side by side.
Houses heated by a boiler often have no ducts, and cutting new runs through old framing is rarely worth it. A ductless mini split needs only a thin line set to each indoor unit, and we pick a spot for the outdoor unit that stays out of the street view. Ducts already in place? A central system or ducted heat pump may suit you. The written price includes equipment, labor, permits and cleanup.
- Central air on existing ductwork
- Ductless mini splits for homes without ducts
- Small duct high velocity systems
- Cold climate heat pumps that heat and cool
- Room by room load calculation
- Permit and town inspection handled
AC Repair
An AC that dies in a July heat wave is more than an annoyance. A technician leaves our Franklin shop for Uxbridge, often the same day. We test the system, point to the failed part, and quote the repair before we begin.
Sometimes the repair costs more than the system is worth. We say so, and you choose.
- Blowing warm air or not cooling
- Ice on the lines or the indoor coil
- Water leaking near the air handler
- Outdoor unit humming but not starting
- Short cycling or weak airflow
- Central air, heat pumps and mini splits
AC Maintenance & Tune-Ups
Book the tune-up before the first hot week. We clean the coils, check the refrigerant charge and test wear parts such as capacitors and contactors. You get a written summary of what we found when we finish.
Many warranties call for yearly service, so this visit helps protect the coverage you already have.
- Indoor and outdoor coil cleaning
- Refrigerant level check
- Capacitor and contactor test
- Condensate drain flushed
- Thermostat check
- Written report every visit

Warm Rooms From the First Frost to March in Your Uxbridge Home
Gas furnaces, oil boilers, hot water radiators, baseboard, propane units and heat pumps. Uxbridge homes may run on any of them, and we service all of them. Whatever warms yours, we aim for the same result: even heat in every room, equipment that holds up, and a price you see first.
Furnace, Boiler & Heat Pump Installation
A new heating system is a large purchase, so we do the homework first. We look at the house, the fuel you burn now, and the equipment in place. A heat loss calculation then sets the size, which keeps rooms even and cuts wasted fuel.
Burning oil or propane and wondering about a change? If a gas main runs past your house, we can price a gas furnace or boiler. If it does not, a cold climate heat pump may be the better fit, and Mass Save rebates may help cover it.
- Gas furnaces
- Gas and oil boilers
- Oil to gas conversions
- Cold climate heat pumps
- Ductless and radiant heat
- Old equipment hauled away, permits filed
Furnace & Boiler Repair
Losing heat in January can turn serious fast, since pipes can freeze within hours. So we take no heat calls around the clock, all winter, from our Franklin shop.
Our technicians repair gas furnaces, oil and gas boilers, and heat pumps alike. We trace the failure to its cause, explain it in plain words, and quote the repair before we pick up a wrench.
- No heat calls answered 24/7
- Furnace won't light or keeps shutting off
- Boiler losing pressure or leaking
- Circulator pump and zone valve problems
- Thermostat and control faults
- Frozen condensate lines on high efficiency units
Heating Maintenance & Tune-Ups
Book your furnace or boiler visit in early fall, before the first night that really needs the heat. We clean and adjust the system and check that it burns cleanly and safely.
Each gas, oil or propane system gets a combustion test and a carbon monoxide reading. A clean burn protects your family and trims the fuel bill.
- Combustion analysis
- Carbon monoxide test
- Heat exchanger inspection
- Burner cleaning and adjustment
- Safety control test
- Flue and chimney vent check

Hot Water, Quiet Pipes and Clear Drains for Your Uxbridge House
Plumbing trouble in Uxbridge? The crew that keeps your heat running also handles water heaters, faucets, toilets and leaks. One call and one schedule cover the boiler, the tank and the pipes, which often sit in the same corner of the basement.
Tank & Tankless Water Heaters
Cold showers? Rust in the water, or a wet spot under the tank? We repair and replace tank water heaters, and we install tankless units that heat water only while a tap is open.
Going tankless can call for a bigger gas line, new venting and a condensate drain. We price those items on the first visit so none of them surprise you later. If your house is on a private well, we also look at the water itself, because minerals shorten a heater’s life.
- Tank water heater repair and replacement
- Tankless water heater installation
- Gas line sizing and upgrades
- Venting and condensate drain work
- Descaling and yearly flushing
- Permits filed with the town
Kitchen & Bathroom Plumbing
A dripping faucet, a toilet that keeps running or a slow drain is a small job that adds up. We handle those, plus larger work: new fixtures, dishwasher and ice maker lines, and rough-in plumbing for a kitchen or bath remodel.
You get a written price before we start. Town sewer covers part of Uxbridge, and the Board of Health sets rules for septic systems, so we plan the job around whichever your house has.
- Faucet and sink installation
- Toilets, showers, tubs and vanities
- Garbage disposals
- Dishwasher and ice maker lines
- Remodel rough-in
- Leak, clog and drain repair

You get the quote in writing first. If water is running now, shut off the main and call us.
Check the Panel and the Air Before You Buy New Equipment
Two questions usually come before a heat pump or central AC install. Is there room in the panel for new equipment? Can the air in the house improve at the same time? One visit answers both, so you skip a second contractor.
Electrical Service & Panel Upgrades
Houses with older panels often lack the open breaker spaces a heat pump, central air or EV charger needs. We inspect the panel first, so installation day brings no surprises. Our licensed electricians handle panel upgrades, new circuits and everyday electrical work, permits and inspections included.
- 100 amp to 200 amp panel upgrades
- Dedicated circuits for HVAC equipment
- EV charger circuits
- Outlets, switches and lighting
- Code corrections
- Permits and inspection handled
Indoor Air Quality
Dusty shelves, stuffy rooms and a dry nose in winter point to the air, not to your housekeeping. We can add whole home filtration, humidity control and fresh air ventilation to the system already in the house.
A tight newer house can hold stale air, while an old house can leak heat and dry out. We study how yours breathes, then suggest only what it needs.
- Whole home air filtration
- UV air purification
- Humidifiers and dehumidifiers
- Fresh air ventilation
- Duct sealing and repair
- Help with allergy and mold concerns

Uxbridge Heating, Cooling and Plumbing Questions
Call (508) 301-3470. Our Franklin shop is the closest one to Uxbridge, about 25 minutes away, and it is open 24 hours, including nights and weekends. For no heat, no cooling or an active leak, we give you a real arrival window on the phone instead of a guess.
The Uxbridge Building Department at Town Hall handles building, electrical, plumbing and gas permits, and its page lists a plumbing and gas inspector. Applications and inspection requests now go through the town’s online permitting system. Massachusetts requires licensed contractors to pull plumbing and gas permits, so we file them and book the inspections for you.
We serve all of Uxbridge, including ZIP codes 01569 and 01538. That covers the center near South Main Street, the mill villages of Wheelockville and North Uxbridge, and homes along Routes 16, 122, 98 and 146A. Uxbridge borders Douglas, Mendon, Millville, Northbridge and Sutton, and we also take calls in nearby towns such as Northbridge from our Franklin shop.
Snow can fall in Uxbridge from November into April, so we plan the spot before we quote. We mount the unit on a stand or wall bracket above the usual snow line and keep it clear of roof drip and drifts. For heat in winter, a cold climate heat pump is sized with a heat loss calculation, not a guess.
It can, if your house sits inside the district. The Historic District Commission says its job is to protect the exterior of properties in the district that can be seen from a public way, so ask whether an outdoor unit in view of the street needs review. We choose the unit’s spot before we quote, and we favor the back or side of the house where the layout allows.
