Trevor’s Unexpected Heating Fix in Wakefield
Trevor from Wakefield reached out feeling stressed after his Bosch water heater suddenly stopped working. He was worried it might need a full water heater replacement. But after a quick visit from our technician, we found the issue — a worn-out ignitor group that was preventing the system from starting. We replaced the faulty part, fired up the unit, and just like that, Trevor had hot water and peace of mind again. Sometimes heating problems aren’t as big as they seem — but fast service makes all the difference.

Chris Gets a Tankless Water Heater Installation That Delivers

Chris in Wakefield was ready to upgrade his old setup and switch to a tankless water heater for better efficiency and performance. We sent out a technician to assess the space and handle the full water heater installation. After evaluating the layout, we built a custom 2×4 support wall with plywood, installed a powerful 199,000 BTU State tankless unit, and connected all necessary piping and gas lines. We took care of everything — venting, condensate drainage, and full system tuning — to ensure it performed at its best. Now Chris enjoys a reliable, space-saving heating solution that keeps hot water flowing whenever he needs.

We’ve had Silco work on our HVAC three or four times since moving to the area in 2022 and every time, including Connor replacing a capacitor in an AC unit today in the middle of a heat wave, the service has been outstanding. Extremely quick response time, quick but careful diagnostics, and great explanations of repair/replace options. The guys are friendly, professional, and efficient - highly recommend.

Very good experience with Silco. Nico D.arrived right in time and got right to work. Pleasantly we need no other repairs or replacement. I called Silco following a "you gotta replace the furnace"" bad call by a National firm. That firm never followed up on the replacement call,made me suspicious. Thanks Silco and Nico Ducette.

Silco Plumbing was a huge help and thoroughly professional when my toilet tank leaked from the second floor through the kitchen ceiling. Silco Plumbing sent someone that day and he tackled all the issues he found with the toilet. I feel lucky to have Silco Plumbing in my contacts. Ben was excellent to work with.
