Some problems require more help then others, sometimes all you need is a simple answer to a small problem, but other times you need more then a little help, for example: you may need to troubleshoot a problem that may be a zone valve or a circulator or thermostat but you don't know which. You may also need help with many problems, and you may want to do a large job like replace your whole boiler or add a complete new zone to your home or other large job. This is why I came up with 3 different prices for the services I provide, you can always up grade or lower the service you pick.

The simple question service: You call me about a question you have about your boiler or furnace, we discuss the problem and I make recommendations,  I will look at your pictures and give advice, but not step by step instructions and cannot provide any follow up. You can upgrade to the one small project service at anytime. This great service is only $19.99
$19.99
The One Small Project Service: You need to make some type of repair or need to troubleshoot a specific problem. Like you have no heat but don't know why, or you think you may need to replace a pump or zone valve, but are not sure, I will help you figure out if the pump or the zone valve needs to be replaced and give you step by step instructions on how to replace it and make sure your system is up and running. there is unlimited follow up for the original problem you had with your boiler or furnace. this great service is only $69.99
$69.99
The large Project: You want to replace your whole boiler, or you want to add a whole new heating zone or you want to add an indirect water heater or other large project that will take allot of time. I will provide you with a material list of all the parts you will need and step by step instructions on how to do the whole job with a full year of follow up on the specific project. With installing a new boiler, you must check with your local building department for specific local codes that I may not be aware of and you must get permits and be sure they will allow you to do this job yourself, many towns and cities do not allow this. This is your responsibility. This great service is only $299.99
