A boiler that stops working mid-winter is more than inconvenient — it's a real problem in older Brooklyn brownstones and pre-war Manhattan buildings that rely on steam and hot-water heat. We repair and install gas, oil, and tankless boiler systems, and we service buildings across every borough, from single-family homes in Staten Island to multi-unit co-ops in Queens.

Signs Your Boiler Needs Repair
- Strange noises — banging, whistling, or gurgling from the unit
- The boiler is leaking or spitting water
- It won't heat up, or heat is inconsistent room to room
- The boiler won't turn on at all
- An unusual smell near the unit — this can signal a gas leak, call us immediately
- A sudden jump in your energy bill with no other explanation
Boiler Repair & Installation Cost in NYC
Costs vary by borough, building access, and boiler type, but here's what NYC homeowners typically pay:
| Service | Typical NYC Cost |
|---|---|
| Boiler repair | $100 – $1,000 |
| New boiler + installation | $5,200 – $12,500 |
| Installation labor only | $2,300 – $4,000 |
| Full replacement (unit + labor, avg.) | $4,290 – $10,070 |
Gas boilers generally cost less to install than oil systems; exact pricing depends on your unit size and access — Manhattan walk-ups and Brooklyn brownstones often need extra labor time for tight basement or utility-closet access. We always give you an upfront quote before work starts.
Should You Repair or Replace Your Boiler?
Repair If
The boiler is under 10 years old, the issue is a single component failure, and efficiency is still above 80%.
Replace If
The unit is 15+ years old, efficiency has dropped below 80%, or you're facing frequent repairs and rising energy bills.

Boiler Repair & Installation — Common Questions
How much does boiler installation cost in NYC?
A new boiler plus installation typically runs $5,200–$12,500 in the NYC metro area, depending on boiler type and building access. We give you an exact quote after a free on-site assessment.
When should I replace my boiler instead of repairing it?
Consider replacement if your boiler is 15+ years old, its efficiency rating has dropped below 80%, or you're dealing with frequent breakdowns. A unit under 10 years old with a single issue is usually worth repairing instead.
Do you service boilers in Brooklyn and Queens?
Yes — we repair and install boilers in all five boroughs, including older brownstone systems in Brooklyn and multi-unit buildings in Queens.
What's the difference between boiler repair and water heater repair?
A boiler heats your home (radiators or baseboard heat); a water heater heats your tap water. They're separate systems, though both can fail in similar-sounding ways — no heat vs. no hot water. Tell us which one you're missing and we'll dispatch the right fix.
