Best Air Duct Repair in Boston MA

We have had several jobs done by Eric C Foster Plumbing (ECF) over the past few years. A steam boiler installation, gas stove installation, and water heater installation. They also did a significant component replacement on the steam boiler that was due to a manufacturers defect. We have been more than satisfied with their service, workmanship and the estimates accuracy and detail.

Great service, very satisfied with everything! I had no heat in my house, I gave them a call and they arrived at my house within an hour. Very professional, prompt, honest and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.

My 80 year old Mom has an older gas furnace that was firing up, but kept shutting down after a few minutes. With it being November in New England, it was becoming a concern. As we weren't able to afford a new furnace at the time, we just wanted to get her current system running again. A couple of other Billerica plumbing companies looked at the furnace, however, these plumbers were clearly more interested in just selling us a new gas furnace, and left with the heat NOT running. Saw a great review on YELP for Belanger & Sons, LLC out of Wilmington, and gave them a call. Steve from Belanger & Sons, LLC was outstanding! As the furnace is old, Steve suggested we seriously consider a new system, however, unlike the others, Steve took the time to get the system running and heating my Mom's home again! Belanger & Sons, LLC are true plumbing and heating professionals AND great people! Thank you Belanger & Sons, LLC plumbing and heating!

I used this team for a Kitchen renovation project and some other plumbing jobs over the past 8 years... I have always been pleased with the quality of there work and value.  They have always taken time to do the job correctly.

Tina and Robbie are customer focused and solved our problem quickly.  To deal with a valve failure, we had to shut off the entire water system. They came quickly and installed a better valve. Very professional. As a first customer, I am so glad we called them.

Quality, quality, quality! The technicians are EXCELLENT! Shout out to James who did my initial consultation. He figured out the problem, documented the issue thoroughly, and provided recommendations. I learned so much from James and greatly appreciate the time he took to review everything with me and make me comfortable with the work. He also walked me through the quote process where he showed me the different options. It is a little pricy but worth it to know you are getting work done correctly, no short cuts. For the fix I got Donnele and George P. Both extremely professional and hard working. They did a great job with fixing the issue and making sure it was all done correctly so I really appreciate their hard work!! Lastly Aizza in the office is wonderful. She is patient, understanding, and very helpful with scheduling. Keep up the great business. I will be back for more when I need my water heater and HVAC! Thank you!

Found Readville plumbing on Google. I was looking for someone to service our boilers in my 3 family home before the winter started. Brendan gave my a fair quote for my servicing. A few days before my appointment I asked him if he could look into checking a radiator on one of my floors due to it making some noise. He said he would.

He arrived on time. He went to fix the radiator and it was easier than he had thought. He also noticed another one in the house was making noise too so he repaired that one too. He also tightened a 3rd one in another room.

Then he went on to the servicing. He informed me of some rebates for boiler replacements for when they hit 30 years which was great info to know. The final bill was actually very reasonable and I was impressed.

He was so great and I will definitely be using him for my regular plumbing and heating needs.

My garbage disposal got clogged: the machine was working but the content of the disposal, ground, did not move through.  I disconnected the plumbing coming off the disposal and found that water that I inserted from above would came out easily.  Therefore, I thought there must have been a clogged pipe downstream, which was unaccessible to me.  I called MACCO and described what I just wrote here; they gave me an appointment for ONE WEEK later.  They also told  me that I would have to pay $ 320 minimum, regardless of how short or long the job was going to be.  When the plumber came he spent a good amount of time doing the same thing that I had done, and told me that he could not fix the problem and I needed a drain guy.  He even called his dispatcher (same person I had talked to, who confirmed that they do not do that type of work.  
I then called their office and said that I did not feel fair to charge me because they should have said right away that they could not do the job. The person on the phone just continued to repeat that I had accepted in advance to pay and that I had not told him that there was a clogged drain, which ridiculous because I knew that it was not a leak and that I had told him that I thought there was probably some obstruction downstream.  I even offered to meet in between with the charge because I understood the man who came had spent some work time, but there was no chance.  Eventually I paid.
I later called a drain company, they came the next day and in 15 minutes they got the job done, for $ 149.
I clearly will not use MACCO again and I would never recommend them to anyone, and I told them the same.

How do you review a company that turns you off so much you don't even want their services?

I called Boston Standard on a Monday afternoon to get a quote on how much it would cost to clear a clogged garbage disposer that was backing up my kitchen sink and making draining very slow.  From what I read online, a garbage disposer is a relatively simple machine that has some simple fixes if you know what you're doing (which I didn't, which is why I was cold-calling plumbers all morning!)

The woman who picked up the phone was the definition of unhelpful.  I asked for a rough estimate ($50? $500? $5000?) but all she would tell me was that just sending someone out for an estimate would cost $30. She wouldn't give me an hourly rate either.  She said it was against their policy to give any kind of quote or estimate before coming out there to see it themselves.  When I pressed her some more and asked if they fix many cases like this, she said Well I don't have any plumbing knowledge, and I don't know what you're talking about, and besides, they don't give me the pricing sheets they use to calculate how much the fix is.  Completely unhelpful.

Finally, she said, and I quote, Listen. If I tell you the estimate is between $10 and $1,000 dollars, then all you're going to hear is the $10 and get angry when it turns out to cost more than that.  What a terrible excuse.

At least the story has a happy ending: I cleared the garbage disposal myself by a combination of calling a hardware store and asking their advice and searching online (thecarpentersworkshop.co…).  The fix cost me $1.15 (the price of a 1/4 Allen wrench) and took me 10 minutes.  Mostly I'm just happy that I dodged a bullet by not caving and using this company!

We had a new gas heater and tankless water dispenser installed. Ross helped us get a MassSave loan, expediting the process so we didn't have to wait. The full team worked consistently and professionally throughout and left the place looking good, too. The price was a little higher than some, but the reason was evidenced in the work itself.

We have used Papalia Home Services for the past couple of years. We have used them at first to maintain our two gas furnaces and central AC systems. When one of the Central AC systems failed we hired them to install a heat pump with a gas furnace as backup. We were very pleased with their service and hired them to install another heat pump to replace the other gas furnace and central AC system. Both heat pumps are now running very well and we are saving money while reducing our CO2 emissions. We have also used Papalia to maintain our plumbing and been very pleased. Papalia's staff are very professional - competent and courteous.  They come during their scheduled window and they are quick and efficient. Being part of Papalia's Planned Maintenance program gives you preferred scheduling and pricing. Papalia is very committed to making sure the resolve problems and they will stick with a problem until they fix it. If they have to come back they don't charge extra. Papalia is not the cheapest service - if that's what you want - look elsewhere. I've worked with cheap contractors before - and I have often regretted it. I think Papalia's service is definitely worth the money.  Strongly recommended!

Our sewer line broke and was backing up into our basement. Jeff F, Steve M and Charlie came to jet the drain. They found the problem was more serious and were able to explain all the options we had to fix our issues. Jeff F and Steven M were awesome at explaining everything. I d recommend them for any of your plumbing needs.

So I'd really give them 4.5 stars because they ran a half-hour to hour late for the appt... but otherwise the service was great! The technician helped explain to me what the problem was with my AC and what the costs were to fix it. He answered all my questions and was able to quickly find the problem and replace the part.

This is not a service I would call for routine maintenance because of their $225 fee, but if you have an AC unit that is broken and need someone quickly, they really try to squeeze as many appts as they can in a day. Overall happy and glad to be cool in my condo again!

I called in a busy summer day when my AC until wasn't working. I was given advice to troubleshoot over the phone, since they were booked up that day, and it worked! Will definitely be using them in the future.

pann left me with that bad feeling you get in your stomach when you are sure you've been taken, like the classic dishonest car mechanic who does unnecessary repairs and overcharges for parts. i guess it could have been worse, they did actually did the repair in a timely manner, and it was on our heat during the winter, so kind of an emergency. i just wish i'd had more time to research alternatives, because i have to think there are better choices out there.

I called for HVAC repair at the start of the cold weather and they said someone would be out later that day -- even giving me a time window in which to expect them. They then canceled last-minute during that window, leaving me without heat after I had already turned down other companies due to my exising appointment with them. The best they would offer as a rescheduled appointment was not for another month.

I took a chance on a company without any reviews and this is the result. Call them at your own risk.

Despite their response here, when I phoned the office and tried to email I got no reply. No money back, no apology, nothing. Choose a different company!

I honestly can say that this is the best service company I have ever used. After becoming a young home owner under some sad circumstances my 100 year old 2 family needed (and continues to need) some plumbing and heating help. Every service call I have made has been professionally handled from the initial call to the actual service delivered. Including the weekend service calls during storms and frigid temperatures. I always ask questions and the guys take their time to explain what they're doing and why. I am forever grateful to them for the multiple calls (never for the same things). Thank you for your continued service and dedication.
