Customers say: Quality work

"Our water heat tank leaked. We called two plumbers and one need to wait for a week and the other required scheduling. So we called Floros. He gave us a quote after receiving the photos, and visited us on the same day. The work was done smoothly. He is knowledgeable and is helpful when we asked him about other issues in our unit. We will hire him again."

"We have had several Sila visits in recent months - all exceptional. VISIT 1: We had old pipes and valves that limited our dishwasher, so we had that replaced. While there, the Sila agent suggested we replace some of the attached lines and managed to streamline our hookups by removing some of the unneeded valves and connections no longer needed. VISIT 2: We similarly had a great visit and instal from David, who did a very beautiful install on our new water heater. He removed the broken unit, improved the connection design, put in improved valves and labelled each with a tag, then tagged other connections through the basement."

"Several projects with Boston Standard Plumbing – all done in ONE WEEK (Dec 11-18) First off, the names: Leo, Jon, Connor, Lilly, CJ, Brendan, and, at the office: Rachel, Micha, Josie (my apologies if I do not give each name correctly). Each and everyone of them embodies the superb qualities of Boston Standard Plumbing. In fact, the word “Standard” may sound like, well, an understatement. Unless one experiences their work from the initial stages all the way through the actual hands-on work, followed by help in all the relevant documentation and filing when it comes to financing and rebates, and, last not least, billing. My projects: replacement of old HVAC system with up to date new Trane system for heating (including humidifier) and cooling (AC); replacement of corroding water heater with a non-corroding one; swift replacement of water main valve during the work on water heater, getting city officials to respond swiftly to shut off and then on again the main on the street; installing permanent drainage of my dehumidifier in the storage space under the stoop, and installing a new pedestal sink in the guest restroom next to it. The location: lower level unit of a Boston South End brownstone built in 1900, renovated in 2005. Leo supervised the entire endeavor competently, always making sure I was completely updated on what was about to happen and how and why. Jon, Connor, and Lilly applied their skills to the HVAC and water heater replacements with professional precision and truly positive energy, always leaving their work site as clean as possible (the HVAC unit is located in the master bedroom). Jon was on top of things when he discovered that the main water valve failed to turn the water on again after installing the new water heater; CJ and Brendan came on the morning after the new HVAC and water heater were in place and working, to take care of the remaining tasks with equally high professional as well as creative skill and setting a superb standard in both. From the office, there was contact throughout and after the proceedings. Financing, rebate filing, processing of payment – each and all of these were handled with a professionalism that is utterly competent, reassuring, and hard to find anywhere else. Last and certainly not least: during each and every interaction, regardless with whom, I felt heard and understood and found myself in the best of hands. The word “standard” in Boston Standard Plumbing may sound like an understatement. It is: their standard in the relationship with the customer, in their professional skill and work ethic, and in the administrative process is of the highest standard. One last thing: as it is winter, Leo suggested to wait with activating the AC until spring (March). At that time, a team member will come by to do the hook-up and to make sure the AC works properly, and to check whether everything that has been done during the week in December is in order. Needless to say that I am simply very happy to have them come to my just before both Christmas and Easter!"

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Chestnut Hill, MA

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
