HVAC & Plumbing Services in Wayland, MA
Stay Comfortable in Your Wayland Home All Year Long
Your home is supposed to take care of you, not the other way around. When the boiler quits on a January night off Old Connecticut Path, or the bedrooms never cool in July, one phone call puts a licensed technician on the way from our Newton shop.
Tell us what is going on at your Wayland home. We will call you back with a real time slot, not a two week window.

Air Conditioning in Wayland, MA
Wayland is almost entirely single family houses, and the biggest share of them went up in the 1950s and 1960s. Those houses cool well once the system is sized for the actual floor plan rather than the square footage.
AC Installation & Replacement
Every Wayland 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 that never had them. In a long ranch or a split level we plan for the rooms at the far end of the run, because those are the ones that get missed.
- 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. Our Newton shop is a straight run out Route 30 or Route 20, so we offer same day visits when we can, 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 gives us a look at the outdoor unit after a long Wayland winter.
- Coil clean and inspection
- Refrigerant charge check
- Capacitor and electrical test
- Condensate drain cleared
- Thermostat calibration
- Written report every visit

Heating in Wayland, MA
About six in ten Wayland homes heat with natural gas and close to a quarter still run on oil. Boilers, furnaces, radiators 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 house first, then help you pick the right size so it heats evenly all winter. If you are ready to move off oil, we can walk you through a gas conversion where there is gas on your street, or a heat pump where there is not.
- 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 come out from Newton 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 in Wayland, with a full combustion analysis and a carbon monoxide safety check on every gas, oil and propane 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 Wayland?
24/7 no heat calls all winter. Free estimates on replacements.
Plumbing in Wayland, MA
Need a plumber in Wayland? 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 or propane line, venting and condensate work that goes with it. Wayland is not on MWRA water, so we check what is actually coming into your house before we pick a unit that has to live with it for fifteen years.
- 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. Wayland is not an MWRA sewer community, so we check whether your house is on septic and plan the job around it.
- 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 Wayland?
Upfront quotes before the work starts. Active leaks go to the emergency line.
Electrical and Indoor Air Quality in Wayland, MA
Panel space and air quality are the two questions that come up right after a heat pump quote. 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. A panel sized for a 1950s house rarely has room for a heat pump, so we check it 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 river meadows that usually means dealing with a damp basement and dry winter air 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.

Wayland HVAC and plumbing questions
Wayland is about 20 minutes from our Newton shop out Route 30 or Route 20. 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. The Town of Wayland issues building, plumbing, gas and electrical permits, 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, and how much of the existing ductwork or piping can be reused. A gas furnace swap with sound ductwork sits at the low end. A boiler replacement 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.
It changes the plumbing side more than the heating side. Wayland is outside the MWRA system for both water and sewer, so we check what your water actually looks like before we put in a tankless unit, and we plan any fixture or drain work around a septic system rather than a municipal sewer. Neither one rules anything out. It just means we look first instead of assuming.
Close to a quarter of Wayland homes still heat with oil, so this comes up often. The answer depends on whether there is a gas main on your street, how far the run is to the house, and what shape your chimney or venting is in. Out toward the town line there often is no main, and then a heat pump is the real alternative. We price what is actually available at your address and let you decide.
Qualifying air source heat pump installations are eligible for Mass Save 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 with your utility for your specific project before you commit.
All of it. Wayland Center, Cochituate, Pelham Island, Tower Hill, and the neighborhoods off Route 20, Route 27, Route 30 and Route 126. ZIP code 01778. 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 often needs a panel upgrade, and coordinating that yourself across two contractors is where projects stall.
