HVAC & Plumbing Services in Grafton, MA
Sized by Load Calculation, From Grafton Center to the Mill Villages

Give us your name and number, and we will call to set a specific arrival time at your Grafton address.

No heat and no cooling calls
A Cooler Grafton Home Starts With Measuring Every Room
Upstairs rooms that stay warm long after sunset. A system that runs nonstop and never catches up. Fans and window units filling the gaps. These are the cooling complaints we hear from Grafton homeowners. The cause is often equipment chosen by a rule of thumb, not by the house. We measure each room first, then repair or replace.
AC Installation & Replacement
Good cooling starts with a load calculation, not with the label on the old unit. Grafton’s Building Department posts a review form for HVAC loads, equipment and ducts, and we work out those same numbers for every install quote.
If your house has ducts, central air or a ducted heat pump may work. If it heats with a boiler and baseboard, ductless mini splits cool the rooms you use without new ductwork. The written quote covers 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
When the AC quits during a Grafton heat wave, the first thing you need is a quick reply. Our Franklin shop sends a technician your way, often the same day. We test the system, point out the failed part, and quote the repair before touching anything.
If the repair price comes close to the cost of a new system, we say so plainly and you decide.
- 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
Early summer is the time to catch a weak part, not the middle of a heat wave. Our tune up covers coil cleaning, a refrigerant check, and tests of the parts that fail most, such as capacitors and contactors. You get a written report when we finish.
Some equipment warranties call for yearly service on record, so the visit protects that coverage too.
- Indoor and outdoor coil cleaning
- Refrigerant level check
- Capacitor and contactor test
- Condensate drain flushed
- Thermostat check
- Written report every visit

Even Heat Through a Grafton Winter, With the Price Settled First
Furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, baseboard and radiators: whatever heats your Grafton house, our technicians work on it. The fuel can be gas, oil, propane or electricity. The goal stays the same. You get even heat in every room, equipment that starts on a cold morning, and a price you see first.
Furnace, Boiler & Heat Pump Installation
A new heating system should be chosen with numbers. We look at your house, your fuel and your current equipment, then run a heat loss calculation so the new system matches the building. The result is even heat and no wasted fuel.
Burning oil or propane now and weighing a change? Where gas runs on your street, we can price a gas furnace or boiler. Where it does not, a cold climate heat pump may fit, and Mass Save rebates may offset part of the cost.
- 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
A heating failure in a Grafton January cannot wait for a business day. Pipes can freeze within hours, so our Franklin shop takes no heat calls around the clock all winter.
Our repair work covers furnaces, boilers that burn gas, oil or propane, and heat pumps. We trace the failure to its source, explain it in everyday words, and quote the repair before the work begins.
- 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 the tune up while the weather is still mild. We clean and adjust your furnace or boiler and confirm it burns safely before you rely on it every day.
Gas, oil and propane systems get a combustion test and a carbon monoxide check on every visit. That protects the people in your house and keeps fuel use in check.
- Combustion analysis
- Carbon monoxide test
- Heat exchanger inspection
- Burner cleaning and adjustment
- Safety control test
- Flue and chimney vent check

Hot Water, Clear Drains and Dry Pipes From North to South Grafton
Water problem in Grafton? Our plumbers work alongside our heating technicians, so a water heater, a leaky pipe and a boiler issue all go through one call and one schedule. That saves a day when the problems share a basement.
Tank & Tankless Water Heaters
Is the shower running cold? Rust in the faucet or water around the base of the tank? We repair and replace tank water heaters and install tankless units that heat water only as you use it.
Depending on the street, a Grafton home may be on the Grafton Water District, the South Grafton Water District, or a private well. We check your water supply before picking a heater. A tankless switch may need a larger gas line, new venting and a condensate drain, so those items go on the first written quote.
- 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 worth fixing early. We also do the bigger work: new fixtures, dishwasher and ice maker lines, and rough plumbing for a kitchen or bath remodel.
Parts of Grafton are on town sewer and parts are on septic. We ask which you have and plan the job around it, and the price comes in writing first.
- Faucet and sink installation
- Toilets, showers, tubs and vanities
- Garbage disposals
- Dishwasher and ice maker lines
- Remodel rough-in
- Leak, clog and drain repair
Dripping pipe or slow drain in Grafton?
A written quote comes before any work. If water is running where it should not, call right away.
Panel Check and Cleaner Air Handled With Your Heat Pump or AC Install
New central air or a heat pump raises two practical questions. Can the panel carry the load? And is this the time to improve the air indoors? We answer both while we are already at your house, so you skip hiring a separate electrician.
Electrical Service & Panel Upgrades
An older panel may be full, with no open slot for a heat pump, central AC or an EV charger. We look at it first, before you commit to equipment, so install day goes as planned. Our licensed electricians handle panel upgrades, new circuits and general electrical work, and the permits and inspections are part of the job.
- 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 dry air in winter usually point to the air in the house, not your cleaning habits. We can add whole home filtration, humidity control or fresh air ventilation to the system you already have.
Tighter, newer houses can hold stale air. Older houses can leak air and run dry. We check how your house handles air, 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
Heat pump on your list?
One written estimate can cover the heat pump and any panel work it requires.

Grafton Homeowners Ask About HVAC and Plumbing
Our Franklin shop is about 35 minutes from Grafton Common, it is open 24 hours, and it is closer to Grafton than our Newton shop. If you have no heat, no cooling or water leaking, call (508) 301-3470. Travel time changes with weather and traffic, so we confirm a real arrival window when you call.
The Grafton Building Department at 30 Providence Road takes applications for building, mechanical, plumbing, gas and electrical permits through its online permitting system. The town’s page says only a licensed sheet metal worker may apply for a mechanical permit, and plumbing and gas permits go to licensed individuals only. That puts the paperwork on us, not you. We also book the inspections and stay on the job until they pass.
Yes, all of Grafton, which has three ZIP codes: 01519 for Grafton, 01536 for North Grafton and 01560 for South Grafton. That includes Grafton Common, North Grafton along Routes 140 and 122 where Route 30 begins, and the mill villages of Farnumsville, Fisherville and Saundersville. Grafton borders Shrewsbury, Westborough, Upton, Northbridge, Sutton, Millbury and Worcester, and our service area runs east to Hopkinton and Franklin.
The Building Department posts a review form for HVAC loads, equipment and ducts next to its mechanical permit application. We run a heat loss and cooling load calculation for replacement quotes anyway, so those numbers are on hand if the department asks for them. Ask us to walk you through the results, and you will see why the new unit is the size it is.
It depends on the equipment, how well it was maintained and what it now costs to keep running. Roughly a third of Grafton’s homes date from 1990 to 2010, according to the town’s housing production plan, so many original furnaces, boilers and air conditioners are well into their working years. We test the system, give you the repair price and the replacement price in writing, and let you choose.
