About Excel Plumbing and heating

Excel Plumbing and Heating has spent years earning trust one Boston triple-decker at a time. LB and the team understand the quirks of the city's housing stock — from cast-iron sewer stacks original to Ashmont Hill three-families to the tangle of galvanized supply lines still hiding in basements from Dorchester to Somerville. When a job requires it, they'll walk you through a full cast-iron repipe or a galvanized-to-copper upgrade in plain language, no scare tactics, no upsells you don't need.

Every visit starts on time and ends with a job site that looks better than when they arrived. Reviews consistently mention the same things: clear communication, respectful work in occupied homes, and problems solved right the first time. Whether it's a same-day water heater swap or a full hydronic boiler replacement, Excel treats every property — owner-occupied or rental — with the same care.

Boston winters are hard on old hydronic systems, and Excel knows exactly where freeze damage tends to hit first: exposed baseboard runs, uninsulated basement piping, and boilers pushed past their service life. That local knowledge, paired with a five-star reputation built almost entirely on referrals, is why homeowners across Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, and Quincy keep calling LB back.
