HVAC & Plumbing Services in Quincy, MA
A Comfortable Two Family, Without the Upstairs Downstairs Fight
Your home is supposed to take care of you, not the other way around. When the boiler quits on a January night in Wollaston, or the top floor never cools in July, one phone call puts a licensed technician on the way from our Newton shop.
Tell us what is going on at your Quincy home. We will call you back with a real time slot, not a two week window.

Air Conditioning in Quincy, MA
More than a third of Quincy’s homes were built before 1940, and a large share of the city sits in two and three family buildings. Cooling those is a different job from cooling a single family house, so we plan it building by building.
AC Installation & Replacement
Every Quincy home is different. We measure yours first, then help you pick the system that fits it, whether that is central air on your existing ducts or a ductless heat pump for a house with none. In a two or three family we plan each unit on its own equipment so nobody is sharing a thermostat.
- Central air systems
- Ductless mini splits for homes with no ductwork
- High velocity small duct for pre-war homes
- Cold climate heat pumps that heat and cool
- Load calculation on every quote
- Permits pulled and inspection scheduled
AC Repair
When your AC stops working on a hot day, you need help fast. We group our South Shore work so a technician is usually already close, and you can reach us any time, day or night.
- System not cooling or blowing warm
- Ice on the refrigerant lines
- Water pooling around the air handler
- Breaker tripping or unit not starting
- Short cycling and weak airflow
- All major brands serviced
AC Maintenance & Tune-Ups
We check your AC each spring, before the first hot week. A yearly visit helps catch small problems early, keeps your warranty in good standing, and near the water it gives us a chance to rinse and inspect the outdoor unit after a winter of salt air.
- Coil clean and inspection
- Refrigerant charge check
- Capacitor and electrical test
- Condensate drain cleared
- Thermostat calibration
- Written report every visit

Heating in Quincy, MA
About half of Quincy homes heat with natural gas, close to three in ten use electric heat, and one in eight still runs on oil. Furnaces, boilers, baseboard or heat pumps, we work on all of it.
Heating Installation & Replacement
A new system should fit your home, not just match the old one. We look at your building first, then help you pick the right size so it heats evenly all winter. In an older Quincy house we look at the radiators and piping too, because a new boiler on a tired distribution system still leaves cold rooms.
- Gas furnaces
- Steam and hot water boilers
- Oil to gas conversions
- Cold climate heat pumps
- Radiant and ductless systems
- Old equipment removed, permits handled
Heating & Furnace Repair
A cold house can’t wait. When your heat stops working, we get a licensed technician out and get it running again. Our team is ready all winter long, even in the middle of the night.
- No heat calls, 24/7
- Ignition and pilot failures
- Thermostat and control faults
- Circulator pump failure
- Boiler pressure loss
- Frozen condensate lines
Heating Maintenance & Tune-Ups
An early fall tune-up, before the first cold night, with a full combustion analysis and a carbon monoxide safety check on every gas and oil system we service.
- Combustion analysis
- Carbon monoxide test
- Heat exchanger inspection
- Burner clean and adjust
- Safety control test
- Flue and venting check
No heat in Quincy?
24/7 no heat calls all winter. Free estimates on replacements.
Plumbing in Quincy, MA
Need a plumber in Quincy? The same company that handles your heating handles your water, so one visit can cover the boiler or furnace, the water heater and the pipes between them.
Tanked & Tankless Water Heaters
Navien and Rinnai installation and replacement, including the gas line, venting and condensate work that goes with it. In an older Quincy two or three family, venting and gas line sizing usually decide whether tankless makes sense, so we look at both before we quote.
- Navien, Rinnai and Rheem
- Gas line sizing and upgrades
- Venting and condensate routing
- Tank to tankless conversions
- Descaling and annual service
- Permits pulled
Kitchen & Bathroom Plumbing
Fixtures, toilets, sinks, dishwasher lines and remodel rough-ins, quoted upfront before the work starts. Quincy is on MWRA water and sewer, and in older buildings we check the supply and drain lines before we add anything new.
- Faucet and fixture installation
- Toilets, showers, tubs and vanities
- Garbage disposals
- Dishwasher and ice maker lines
- Remodel rough-in
- Leak and drain repair
Plumbing problem in Quincy?
Upfront quotes before the work starts. Active leaks go to the emergency line.
Electrical and Indoor Air Quality in Quincy, MA
Panel space and air quality are the two questions that come up right after a heat pump quote in Quincy. Our own licensed electricians handle the panel in-house, so you don’t have to find a second contractor.
Electrical Service & Panel Upgrades
Panel upgrades for heat pump and whole-home AC conversions, plus general electrical service, done by our own licensed electricians. Older Quincy buildings often need the service upgraded before heat pumps go in, so we check the panel before you commit to new equipment.
- 100 amp to 200 amp upgrades
- Dedicated HVAC circuits
- EV charger circuits
- Outlets, switches and lighting
- Code corrections
- Permits and inspection handled
Indoor Air Quality
Filtration, ventilation and humidity control planned alongside the equipment instead of added on later. Near the water that often means dealing with damp basements and summer humidity in the same plan.
- Whole-home air filtration
- UV purification
- Humidifiers and dehumidifiers
- Fresh air ventilation
- Duct sealing and repair
- Allergy and mold concerns
Planning a heat pump conversion?
We quote the panel upgrade and the equipment together, on one estimate.

Quincy HVAC and plumbing questions
Quincy is about 30 minutes from our Newton shop outside of rush hour, and we group our South Shore work so a technician is usually already nearby. For no heat, no cooling, or an active leak, call the emergency line at (508) 470-4590. We run that line around the clock, and during the heating season we staff it heavily because December through February is our busiest stretch.
Yes for most replacement and installation work. Quincy Inspectional Services issues building, plumbing, electrical, gas and sheet metal permits through its online system, and a single heating replacement often needs more than one of them. Massachusetts requires a licensed contractor to pull those permits, not the homeowner. We file them, schedule the inspection, and see it through to sign-off.
It depends on the fuel, the system type, how much of the existing ductwork or piping can be reused, and whether the building runs one system or one per unit. A gas furnace swap with sound ductwork sits at the low end. A boiler replacement in an older two or three family sits higher, and a full heat pump conversion is higher still before rebates. We quote the actual job after seeing the actual basement, and we give you the number in writing before any work starts.
Yes, and it is the most common question we get here. 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.
It can. Large parts of Quincy sit in mapped flood zones along the shore, so in those neighborhoods we look at where the outdoor unit and the mechanicals sit before we quote, and we raise equipment where it makes sense. Salt air is also rough on outdoor coils, so a yearly rinse and inspection matters more here than inland.
Quincy homes are served by the Mass Save program through National Grid, and qualifying air source heat pump installations are eligible for rebates and the 0% HEAT Loan. The amount depends on whether you are doing a whole-home or partial-home conversion, what you are replacing, and your household eligibility. Rebate levels change year to year, so we confirm current amounts for your specific project before you commit.
All of it. Quincy Center and Hancock Street, Wollaston and North Quincy, Squantum and Marina Bay, Merrymount, Adams Shore, Houghs Neck, Germantown, West Quincy and South Quincy. ZIP codes 02169, 02170 and 02171. You can see the rest of our coverage on our service area page.
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 jobs: a heat pump conversion in an older Quincy building often needs a panel upgrade, and coordinating that yourself across two contractors is where projects stall.
