If you smell gas, stop reading
When your boiler is outdated, inefficient, or no longer meeting your heating needs, it can affect the comfort and reliability of your home or business. At Ferguson Plumbing Design Inc., our boiler replacement services provide a dependable heating solution designed to improve comfort, efficiency, and performance.
Whether you’re replacing an aging boiler, upgrading to a more efficient system, or installing a new unit, our experienced team can help you choose the right solution for your space. A properly installed boiler can improve heating performance, reduce energy waste, and keep your home warm and comfortable for years
There can be a number of causes for a gas leak: corrosion, an aging part, or a poor connection, which our skilled technicians can help identify and rectify. You may notice it by a hissing sound, an appliance acting up, or the telltale smell of rotten eggs, which should prompt immediate attention for your home or business.
When it is safe, our skilled technicians will do a thorough visual inspection and leak detection to track down the problem, providing you with peace of mind. We are not in the business of merely addressing the most apparent symptom; we want to put in place a dependable fix. It is about giving property owners the confidence that their system is secure.
Much of this town is made up of older homes. You will find many homes dating back to the 1840s and 50s, or the period between 1865 and 1900; in fact, some 50 per cent of the town’s pre-1945 historic houses are on file with the Massachusetts Cultural Resource Information System. With infrastructure that has likely seen its share of modifications over the decades, an inspection is prudent before you put in anything new. Then there is the New England climate to factor in, which can impact the efficiency of your HVAC system. Freezing weather takes its toll on exposed parts, and any work on underground pipelines calls for forethought. And of course, we follow state law to contact Dig Safe before any digging so as not to disturb other utilities.
We have an affinity for this town, from the open spaces and the rivers to the Covered Bridge that is such a fixture of the community, and we are proud to offer services here. Our team is ready to lend a hand with whatever service you require, be it a full inspection, a repair, or installation services. We pride ourselves on quality and safety, and on providing the kind of customer service and reliable results that homeowners and businesses expect.
Rotten eggs is the odourant. If it is faint and intermittent, get it inspected, if it is strong, evacuate and call 911.
Yellow rather than blue flame, soot marks, a pilot that will not hold.
Any audible hiss near a gas fitting warrants immediate evacuation, then a call.
A new range, dryer, boiler or generator needs the line sized for the load.
Relocating a gas appliance is a permitted alteration, not a DIY reroute.
Especially where a line passes through a damp basement or exits a wall.
$49 dispatch fee gets a licensed plumber and a stocked truck to your door. No diagnostic fee if we can see the problem. $99 diagnostic if we have to break out tools to find it. After that you get a firm price before any work starts. Nobody here is paid on commission.
Leave the building. Do not flip switches, unplug anything or use a phone indoors, from a safe distance outside, call 911 and then your gas utility. They make the property safe. We handle the repair afterward.
Yes. In Pepperell, gas work requires a licensed fitter or plumber and a permit. Beyond the legal position, unpermitted gas work is a problem when you sell the house and can be a problem with your insurer after an incident.
Yes, provided the supply can carry the additional load. That is the first thing we calculate. Adding a high-demand appliance to an undersized line is the most common defect we find in other companies’ work.
Pressure testing the system and isolating sections, combined with detection equipment and inspection of the runs. It is a process of elimination, done in the right order, so we open one place rather than several.
Not always. A pilot that has gone out or a brief whiff when an appliance lights can be harmless. But gas is not something to judge from a description. If it persists or is strong, evacuate and call 911; that call costs nothing and being wrong is fine.
$49 dispatch, and $99 if tools have to come out to diagnose. Installation and line work are quoted as a written scope, permits included, before anything starts.
