Joe is my hero. My man came and immediately diagnosed and fixed the shoddy work performed by a different plumbing company and did a truly spectacular job. Every time he emerged from the bathroom he greeted me with a huge smile and reassuring progress reports. Request him for your next job, you won't regret it.
We were very pleased, besides coming out in such a short notice he was on time and installed our new toilet & shut off. I would recommend Silco to family and friends if they should need a plumber.
The Silco team repaired a complicated plumbing problem in my home that lead to the main drain. They were highly skilled, professional and diligent about staying with the problem until it was resolved! Addtioionally, they were very personable thoughout the completion of the job.
Silco Plumbing is the real deal for all your plumbing and heating needs! You’re are definitely guaranteed satisfaction. The company is dedicated, dependable and professional in working with you. I have consistently call on Jerry and his team - installed my boiler, heating and cooling systems. Special shout out to Joe! The best!!!
I had a great experience with Silco. Technician Joe Pilla was outstanding. He was informative and professional. I would recommend Silco to anyone with Furnace issues or needs
We hired Sico for an emergency service and they had a tech arrive in less than an hour. Jerry was very helpful and made our emergency top priority. Their service was top notch, and price was very reasonable. We at Aspen Environmental are very grateful for their prompt repose, and they will be our first call when we have a pluming issue. Can't say enough good things about Jerry and his crew.
Had a water heater breakdown. Connor Joseph addressed addressed all my questions and concerns patiently and pointed me in the right direction. I would definitely recommend silco and especially Connor!
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.

What Should You Do If Your Boiler Stops Working?
A cold house is an obvious sign something’s wrong, but boiler problems don’t always announce themselves right away. Our technicians know how to catch issues early and fix them properly.
Here’s what we check and resolve quickly:
No heat or uneven heating: If your radiators are cold or certain rooms won’t warm up, we’ll find the cause and restore consistent heat.
Strange noises or odors: Banging, whistling, or unusual smells should never be ignored. These are warning signs that need immediate attention.
Rising heating bills: When a boiler is losing efficiency, it works harder and costs you more. We identify inefficiencies and correct them.
No uncertainty. No pressure. Just experienced boiler service when you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you repair every kind of boiler?
Absolutely, our expertise extends to gas, electric, and oil boilers alike. We have hands-on experience with all leading brands and models, so whatever type of boiler you own, it’s likely we’ve serviced it before and know how to resolve any issue.
Is your emergency service truly available 24/7?
Absolutely. If your boiler stops working late at night or during the weekend, we’re available to assist you right away, because staying comfortable shouldn’t have to wait until Monday.
What are the signs that indicate it’s time to replace my boiler?
If your boiler is more than 15 years old, frequently needs repairs, or isn’t providing warmth as efficiently as before, it could be time to consider a replacement. We’ll guide you through available choices and offer straightforward recommendations based on your current system and budget.
What is involved in a boiler maintenance visit?
During a boiler maintenance visit, we thoroughly examine and clean your whole system, check all essential safety features, and ensure optimal operation. This straightforward service can help you avoid boiler issues during the winter months and may also help reduce your heating expenses.
Is it possible to upgrade my boiler and air conditioning at the same time?
Absolutely, and often it’s a wise decision. Upgrading both simultaneously can reduce installation costs, boost your system’s performance, and may allow you to benefit from rebates or energy-efficiency incentives.

Boiler Services in Melrose, MA
The Pre-Winter Tune-Up
Ever feel that first autumn chill and realize your boiler isn’t ready for the heavy lifting? Betsy in Melrose wasn’t about to take that chance. She reached out to schedule the annual maintenance for her Lochinvar boiler, a system we’ve been proud to look after since we installed it in 2021.
We worked around her schedule for a midday visit, where our tech swapped out the old ignitor for a new smart valve-specific assembly and flame sensor. One test fire later, the system was humming perfectly. Now, Betsy is heading into the cold season with a boiler that’s not just running, but reliable.
The Smart Play for Winter
Ever have that nagging feeling that you should check your heating before the first big snow hits? Brian in Melrose is a firm believer in “better safe than sorry.” Even though his Lochinvar boiler was humming along without a single hiccup, he reached out for an annual service just to be certain.
We gave the system a top-to-bottom tune-up, double-checked every safety protocol, and verified the combustion was spot on. The verdict? His system is in peak condition, with no parts needing replacement. Now, Brian can relax knowing his home is ready for whatever the New England winter throws his way.
From Struggling to Superior
Ever notice your heater working overtime but your rooms still feel a bit chilly? That’s the spot Dan from Melrose found himself in. His old boiler was gasping for air and just couldn’t keep up with the demand anymore. After a close look, our team delivered the tough news: it was time for a retirement.
We didn’t just swap it out; we leveled up the entire setup with a brand-new 5-section boiler and fully updated near-boiler manifold piping for better flow. After a professional install and a successful test run, Dan’s home has gone from “struggling” to “perfectly cozy.” He’s officially ready to face the winter with an efficient system he can actually rely on.
Seeing Clearly in Melrose
Have you ever looked at your boiler and felt like something just wasn’t “reading” right? Karl in Melrose noticed a subtle but worrying trend: the water level in his steam boiler’s sight glass had been slowly creeping up over the past year. Rather than waiting for a small mystery to become a big leak, he gave us a call.
Our technician performed a deep-dive safety check and found the culprits, worn-out gaskets and a weathered gauge glass that were throwing off the readings. We swapped in fresh glass and new gaskets, ensuring a perfect seal and a crystal-clear view of the system’s levels. Now, Karl’s boiler is back to operating safely and efficiently, giving him the accuracy and peace of mind he was looking for.
