I had a problem with my boiler towards the end of last winter. It was freezing outside and we were cold. The boiler wouldn't start. I cleaned it, vacuumed the combustion chamber, did a couple blowdowns. The water was crystal clear. It would run for a little while and then shut down again, in the middle of the night for example. When we woke up the house was as cold as an Ice Age cave. I called this plumber, he came with his son and they replaced a couple of gadgets without looking at it too much. Just like that the problem went away. Did not ask me for appointment fee, the price was very reasonable. He told me that part of my heating system was done by someone who was not a professional. I have both steam and hot water heat for different parts of the house, the hot water heat part having been added much later and the job was not quite done the right way. The plumber recommended a solution and did the job quickly and for a reasonable price. He explained what had to be done and I could tell he knew what he was talking about, even though I'm not a plumber. Everything is looking good so far and I'm ready for the next winter.
