Your old boiler’s been giving you trouble for months. The repair bills keep climbing, your heating bills are through the roof, and you’re tired of wondering if tonight’s the night it finally gives up completely.
When we replace your boiler, you get consistent heat throughout your home without the constant worry. No more cold mornings waiting for rooms to warm up. No more emergency repair calls in the middle of winter storms.
You’ll see the difference in your energy bills too—modern high-efficiency boilers can cut your heating costs by 10% to 20% compared to that old unit that’s been struggling to keep up.
Emma Plumbing started in new construction back in 2007, but we’ve shifted our focus to what Everett homeowners really need—reliable service and repairs you can count on. We know these older homes in Everett, especially around the Mystic River area where many houses date back decades.
Emmanuel and our team of 5 skilled technicians understand the heating challenges that come with Massachusetts winters. We’ve seen every type of boiler problem you can imagine, from the oil systems that were popular when Beacon Oil had their refinery here, to the newer gas units homeowners have been upgrading to.
When you call us, you’re getting upfront pricing before we start any work. No hidden fees, no surprise charges after the job’s done.
First, we come out and assess your current system and your home’s heating needs. We’ll measure your space, check your existing connections, and explain what size and type of boiler will work best for your house.
Once you approve the quote, we handle the permits and schedule the installation. For most standard replacements, we can complete the job in one day. If we need to upgrade gas lines or make other modifications, it might take 2-3 days, but we’ll tell you that upfront.
We remove your old unit safely, install the new boiler, test everything thoroughly, and make sure you understand how to operate your new system. Before we leave, we’ll show you what to watch for and give you our direct number for any questions.

Every boiler replacement includes removal and proper disposal of your old unit, professional installation of your new system, and all necessary connections to your existing plumbing and gas lines. We handle the permit paperwork and make sure everything passes inspection.
You get a 1-year warranty on all our labor, so if anything goes wrong with our installation, we fix it at no charge. We also include a free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers—it’s our way of making sure your whole plumbing system is in good shape.
In Everett, we see a lot of homes that still have older oil systems or boilers that are 20+ years old. With Massachusetts energy costs expected to stay high this winter, upgrading to a high-efficiency unit now can start saving you money immediately. Modern boilers can reach up to 98% efficiency, compared to 60-80% for older units.
Boiler replacement in the Everett area typically ranges from $4,000 to $9,000, depending on the size of your home and the type of system you choose. Standard-efficiency units start around $4,000 installed, while high-efficiency models run $6,000 to $9,000.
The exact cost depends on your home’s heating needs, whether we need to upgrade gas lines or electrical connections, and if any permits are required. We always provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying with no surprises.
Keep in mind that high-efficiency boilers typically pay for themselves within 5-7 years through lower energy bills, especially with Massachusetts heating costs staying high.
Most standard boiler replacements take one full day to complete. If we’re swapping out a similar-sized unit and connecting to existing gas and water lines, we can usually have you back up and running the same day.
More complex installations might take 2-3 days, especially if we need to upgrade your gas line, modify venting, or make significant changes to your heating system layout. We’ll tell you the expected timeline upfront when we give you the quote.
During winter months, we prioritize getting your heat back on as quickly as possible. We carry the most common boiler models in our trucks and can often complete emergency replacements within 24 hours of your call.
If your boiler is over 15 years old and needs frequent repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense. We typically recommend replacement when repair costs exceed 50% of a new unit’s cost, or when you’re calling for service more than twice per year.
Other clear signs include your energy bills steadily increasing, uneven heating throughout your home, strange noises like banging or whistling, or visible corrosion around the unit. If you’re seeing rust-colored water or notice leaks around the boiler, those are usually indicators that the system is failing.
In Everett’s climate, an unreliable boiler isn’t just expensive—it’s a real problem when temperatures drop. If you’re questioning whether your boiler will make it through another winter, it’s usually time to replace it.
Yes, we handle all permit paperwork required for boiler replacement in Everett. The city requires permits for most heating system work, and we’re familiar with their requirements and inspection process.
We submit the permit application, schedule the required inspections, and make sure everything meets local codes before we consider the job complete. This is included in our installation price—you don’t pay extra for permit handling.
Having the proper permits protects you if you ever sell your home, and ensures your insurance will cover any claims related to your heating system. We’ve been working in Everett long enough to have good relationships with the local inspectors, which helps keep the process moving smoothly.
Standard boilers operate at about 80% efficiency, meaning 20% of your fuel costs go up the chimney as waste heat. High-efficiency boilers can reach 90-98% efficiency by capturing and using that waste heat to warm your home.
The upfront cost difference is usually $2,000 to $3,000 more for high-efficiency, but the energy savings add up quickly. In Massachusetts, where heating costs are high, most homeowners see the payback within 5-7 years through lower monthly bills.
High-efficiency units also tend to last longer and need fewer repairs because they’re built with better components. They’re also quieter and provide more consistent heat throughout your home. For most Everett homeowners, the long-term savings make high-efficiency the smarter choice.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency boiler replacement throughout Everett and Middlesex County. When your boiler fails completely during a cold snap, we understand you can’t wait days for a replacement.
We keep common boiler models in stock and can often complete emergency installations within 24 hours of your call. Our emergency service includes the same 1-year labor warranty as our scheduled installations.
Emergency replacements do cost more due to after-hours labor and the urgency involved, but we’ll give you the exact pricing upfront. We also offer temporary heating solutions if we need to order a specific boiler model that’s not immediately available.
