I give only four star because I had a no heat emergency in the dead of winter and the first available appointment they offered me was three days out.

Boston Standard was more expensive than other options, but they said they'd move quickly starting the Monday after we signed and ending that week. We naively trusted them.What should've taken 4 days turned into 3 weeks. Along the way the communication was terrible - they were constantly either pushing out the work, showing up later than they said, showing up when they weren't scheduled, or not showing up at all. And then they tried to blame delays on us rather than take accountability.All of this was extremely challenging when we were simultaneously working at home, trying to participate in Zoom calls, and keep pets out of the way of work.Beware of delays, broken promises, terrible communication, and paying more than other providers.On the positive side, the crew that performed the work was friendly and professional when they were on site. But even they were blindsided when folks like the electricians didn't show up, which meant they couldn't finish their work either.

We needed to replace our boiler, which also provides hot water, in our condo. Boston Standard excelled in every step! The project was reviewed in detail and options were discussed, all in layperson terms. They were not simply pitching one most expensive plan. The proposal was very thorough and easy to understand. Scheduling was handled efficiently through the well trained and courteous office staff. The installers were fantastic - punctual, would explain what they were doing, professional and courteous. I had a few questions after the work was completed and all were responded to promptly. I've done many projects and renovations in my properties and can say without hesitation that working with Boston Standard was one of the best contractor experiences I've had.

I worked with multiple technicians (Billy P, Jeff H, and James D) this year from Boston Standard to fix a water leaking problem associated with my water heater valves and HVAC unit. They're all very nice and professional, arrived at my house on time, and did a good job. I also hired Boston Standard to replace my water heater last year with a reasonable price. I have joined their annual maintenance plan ever since, which is worthwhile resulting in cost saving for this year's multiple service calls. BTW, their customer service personnel are also very nice and responsive.

I am very pleased with the service received from Boston Standard Company. The Office personal keeps in touch with you daily. They advise you each step that’s being taken. They made it very easy for me to get things done quickly and with no worries. A tech assisted me with going online with MassSave, giving bank contacts, and gave us a rundown of what was going to be done. The techs who installed my unit, I’m not sure if I could give out their names, Victor and Brandon (heating system, hot water heater and thermostats) were wonderful. They were on time each day, they cleaned up behind themselves, they were very professional and polite. They did an awesome job and we are sitting at home in a nice warm house with plenty of hot water as well. At this time we have a water pump issue, but someone will be here first thing in the AM to rectify this. Otherwise, no problem. I would surely recommend Boston Standard to anyone who needs this type of work done.Thank you Boston Standard Company for what you’ve done for us.

It was a classic “bait and swith” with the whole purpose to up-sell the repair. I contact them to have the floater replaced.on my toilet, they asked for pictures of the mechanism, which I provided, the quoted me a price of $149 and after they came they said it was going to be $480. When I asked them why, the technicians response was, and I quote,” because it is a business”. When I asked what do you mean he said, “well this is a 1st lever repair and the fixed price is $489”.I called the office, explained the situation to them and they said, because we don’t know what kind of repair the floater was going to be, we could not quote the exact price, but when I asked him what is the cheapest repair on a toilet for the floater, he agreed it was a 1st level repair for $489. But of course nothing like this was mentioned before they came. Classic “bait and switch”. Let me come over, will not tell you the true minimum charge is $489, and after I charge you for coming out, I will hit you with the BIG number.My advise, GO WITH ANOTHER COMPANY, save your money and the frustration.

Boston Standard is the best and most professional HVAC contractor among the many mediocre service providers I have used. They respond and arrive extremely promptly. Boston Standard offers expert advice and thorough diagnosis of the problems. They provide accurate estimates. The installations, repairs, and investigations are completed in the timeframe they promise or sometimes in less time. Boston Standard always cleans up the work area very well. They also follow Covid protocols and wear those booties over their shoes whenever working inside. I live in an area where traffic is busy and parking is tight. However, their technicians never complain about parking or ask me to save one for them (although I try). I highly recommend Boston Standard for HVAC installation, repairs, and diagnosis. After being so disappointed with so many other contractors I won’t consider using anyone else. Their team will take great care of you whether it is the courteous people answering the phone, the great technicians like Wilfred and Tim, or the managers like Joseph or Mike.

I have a multifamily property heated by a steam boiler. I love the quality of the heat, but the system is almost impossible to balance. Rich Travers evaluated the system and identified ways to improve the operation. I was impressed by his understanding of the system, and encouraged by his suggestions. I hired them to do the work and it was completed yesterday. I am very hopeful for a positive result. The crew was on time, and very organized.

If you need a reliable plumbing, HVAC and electrical company then I highly recommend Boston Standard Company. I had them come out to replace 2 toilets, replace my outside hose bibb, replace 3 shutoff valves in my basement, service my 5 zone heating system and get my 3 ac systems ready for the warm weather. They are technically superior to any other company I have ever used. The entire process from booking to estimate to payment is simple and well explained. Their techs Jeff and geez I’m sorry I don’t remember the young woman’s name, we’re on time, respectful in keeping my home the way they found it, and extremely knowledgeable. The work was performed quickly with minimal downtime and they hauled away all the old stuff! Amazing! Thank you! Highly, highly,highly recommended!

This company saved me and my tenants after a contractor ripped me off and took my heating systems apart and tearing all connected pipes. Boston Standard came in and professionally assessed the situation. They installed new heating systems for all 3 units and we are very happy. You cannot go wrong with these folks. They cleaned up perfectly. They were polite and quiet. I love Boston Standard Company. Thank you Boston Standard Company. I may have chosen the wrong contractor but I chose the perfect folks to install new systems.

Huge ripoff. Was quoted $1450 including parts to replace the stem and mixer in my shower (an hour long job). That was after paying them $350 to diagnose the issue. So $1800 total. Found someone else to do it for $500.

I have a condo in the South End, and I've been using these guys for years for both plumbing and HVAC. They've done basic repairs for me, installed a new tankless hot water/heater system, installed a new air conditioner, put in wifi thermostats, done loads of basic maintenance (changing air and water filters, descaling, etc.), and once or twice, made night time or weekend visits to address an emergency problem. They have been consistently professional and have done excellent work for me. Their techs are clean, knowledgeable, respectful of my time and property, and they show up on time. I trust them to be in my unit unsupervised, locking up when they leave. Plus, they have very good centralized records, so you don't have to repeat everything each time someone comes out. As far as I'm concerned, these guys are the go-to shop for residential plumbing and A/C in Boston.

We had Boston standard replace our main water valve . The technician Joey T and his assistant did an EXCELLENT Job. They arrived on time and finished under the estimated time. They replaced all of our brass water piping in our basement that was 95 years old and installed two new shut offs. They were very respectable and showed us every detail in the job. I request Joey all the time because the trust we built is valuable. We’ve used Boston stand on many occasions and are a member of their programs. We absolutely recommend Boston Standard to do all types of plumbing.

I was surprised at the cost of a recent survey Boston Standard Company did for a steam boiler in my 120 year old house to replace the boiler and remove the old one. The total job was priced at $25,726.00 which I think is a little high I am having 2 other contractors bid and do not know what their bid is but, I looked back in my records and I found a Boston Standard Company Estimate dated just over a year ago and it was for the same total job only this was priced at $13,700 almost twice as much! I know there is inflation and things have increased in price but twice as much???? Won't be calling you Buyer Beware!

I called the company because my AC was not cooling. A technician came after two days and told me the AC was working but weak. He left without providing any solution. The thermostat still read 81 degrees although the setting was 72. (How can you say it's working?!) Very doubtful about their ability. I later called the customer service regarding a dispatch/trip charge of $159, which I kindly asked if they could give me a one-time courtesy waiver since I just paid $40,000 to them recently on a heating/hot water system. Not only were they unwilling to waiver the fee or give me a break, but the representative hung up on me after saying You don't talk over me. This behavior was childish and unprofessional. The responder to my review accused me being abusive after an insincere apology. What kind of response can be more lame and more confrontational than that? My experience with them was nothing but frustrations. Who needs it? Hopefully they will make effort to improve their services.

These folks are masters at what they do. They show up when they say they will. They do exactly what they say they will do. And they'll do it in the time they say it will take. Polite, and respectful, these technicians know their stuff and always carefully explain everything. I had them service my furnace (it was shutting itself off) . They've got it running perfectly and set me up with a yearly maintenance plan that practically pays for itself. At my girlfriends house, I had them install a vent for her stove and her dryer. This required a 5' hole drilled through 8 concrete. I also needed a roofer to seal the vent through the roof. They contracted this additional work, had it done and put that fee onto their bill for one simple credit card payment for me. I can't say enough good things about these guys (except that Jeff is probably the calmest person I ever met) and highly recommend them for your needs. Since they do plumbing, HVAC, and more, and offer maintenance plans, I know I will be seeing more of them. Highly recommended.

Boston Standard installed my house system a little less than a year ago (130 year old house). AC, heating, and water heater (all heat-pump). Works great. Had a tiny leak between the condensate tube on one of the air handlers and the evac pump which eventually filled the runoff pan to shutdown level. When I reported the issue, they came over the same day and fixed it quickly under warranty. Couldn't be happier with these guys.

After showing up (on time) to repair a serious HVAC problem with water leaking near an electrical panel, they did a partial repair. When trying to book time for them to complete the repair, was told for DAYS (I checked back each day) that a coordinator would set it up. Five days later, still nothing. I have had to hire another HVAC company. I even told Boston Standard (2 days ago), please, if the repair is not something you can do, just tell me, so i can contract with another HVAC service co. Boston Standard said they could do it, but crickets. People on the phone were polite, but this is not an acceptable way to treat customers. What a waste of time. The only time I've heard back was this reminder request to rate their service, so here it is: Absolutely do NOT recommend using Boston Standard.update: Incredibly, more than a WEEK later after writing this review, I STILL have not gotten a call back from the 'coordinator,' just another request to review them on-line. So it's now been overTWO WEEKS and no response, after initially coming to start the job.Good thing I already had the HVAC repaired by a reputable, professional provider.Once again, I absolutely do NOT recommend using Boston Standard.

They requested make/model of HVAC and tankless hot water tank as well as photos. Upon arriving I was given 3 estimates, each one explained thoroughly. The servicing of each product took approximately 45 minutes. When the technician came across something unexpected, I was informed immediately and advised of any price change. The tech was on time, knowledgable and professional throughout the service call. Thank you for a positive experience!

BSC was a delight to work with. Form the beginning, they were very helpful. Scott supported us on picking the right system for our house, also walked to us through all the financial incentives available to us, and finally helped me figure out all the documentation required for a heat-loan (he actually helped me on 2 proposals with the same enthusiasm). Fred worked with us to figure out installation dates that would work best for us and was very communicative of all the changes that came up. The MOST IMPRESSIVE part was working with the installation team: Joel and his team were above and beyond any recent experience I've had with contractors in the Boston area. They were courteous, communicative, friendly, meticulous about their work and the overall workmanship was A+, I wish I could get guys like Joel on every single one of my home projects. Finally, Debbie helped us submit all the incentive applications to Mass Save and communicated with me through all the steps.Bottom line: I would recommend BSC for any HVAC installation service. They run a really well oiled operation and they do not nickel and dime you. It felt like they were truly concerned about our satisfaction, imagine that!

I had been using a 6 gallon portable evaporation humidifier and it struggled to get the ranch style, open floor plan home to 35% humidity. Within a few hours of operation the house was at 60 % humidity. Very happy.

If you're looking for an HVAC person you can trust, keep on looking. We had a scheduled maintenance appointment on our A/C unit that is less than 5 years old. A few weeks later our compressor goes and is completely unusable.THEN they say it'll be $4,400 to replace the parts or $7,200 to get a brand new condenser. Now mind you, those were prices AFTER the discount for being a member. I also asked if it was under warranty. The technician said no it doesn't pass down from the original homeowner. I called the manufacturer and they said it is covered under the warranty.So, I get a couple more quotes at other places and every other place came in around HALF OF WHAT THEY WERE CHARGING! When I called them back and asked why there was such a price disparity, they responded our prices are our prices.So not only did my A/C stop working shortly after they serviced it, but they're charging 2x the amount as others to fix or replace it.Don't waste your time.

I had a Mitsubishi mini-split system installed last December. Boston Standard also helped with a hot water issue last fall. Prices are reasonable but service is what I value most. Everyone I've talked to from an answering service to techs to the owner himself have been friendly and responsive whenever I've had questions or issues. As a relatively new home owner, finding a trusted company has been a huge help. I'd recommend Boston Standard for anyone looking into ductless ac and/or plumbing projects planned or emergency.

One of the worst experiences that I ever went through. Unless you know anything about plumbing do not call them.We have a tankless water heater that many plumbers are not yet knowledgeable on. Boston Standard were one of the few that knew the system and they take advantage of the fact that there is little competition. To me that is a scum bag way of doing business.They charge $99 to come out alone. $700 more. When the problem wasn't fixed a few days later, they were going to charge $350 to come back out. Fortunately we said no and got someone else.I am in a condo area where this same system is used. I am going to recommend to the association not to use Boston Standard Plumber.

Prepare yourself to give 200$ by just coming to your apartment !My air-condition was leaking, so guys came and explained that issue might be draining system behind the air-condition (it already had deep cleaning). He gave me few options what can be done about that, did not do any work and charged 208 $ (99 $ fee for service charge - just coming to your apartment) and 109 $ for minimum diagnostic???Update:They do care about reviews.After posting above comment, manager reached out to me to discuss an issue and he decided to wave the minimum diagnosting expenses of 109$, which I found fair! Thank you!

The previous owner installed the boiler to our rental unit with no drain, vent, or skim. Boston Standard has put all these on so that we can properly maintain the boiler. When the time comes, we may switch over to an air source heat pump as we did for our own unit already with Boston Standard. The call will be to Boston Standard although hopefully now despite its rough beginnings the rental boiler will now last a bit longer thanks to the work Boston Standard has done.

Boston Standard provided a very professional approach to completing the replacement of our 26 year Trane air conditioning equipment. From the sales representative to the service technicians who installed the system, everything was well coordinated and on time which made this process easy to get through. Greg in sales, office staff (Alex) and Frank and Jorge (installer/technicians) were all working to make this job as easy on the customer as possible while providing a successful outcome, which they did.Try Boston Standard; I think you will be glad you did.

I bought a condo three weeks ago and the A/C unit upon moving in was not sufficiently cooling the space. I got a referral for this company and their business seemed promising. However, I found out you will get price gouged if they sense you are looking to get your problem resolved sooner rather than later. The price they charged to add two pounds of refrigerant to my condenser was outrageous. This set me back $900.In addition, the technician said that he would forward a quote for the cost to find the source of the leak to my email address. The price he quoted me in person was +$2k which seemed excessive. It’s been about a week and I haven’t received any quote or even a receipt for the $900 I paid.

I would like to say that my technician (Ben Strolsky) was extremely competent & knowledgeable. When Ben called me back and I explained what the problem was, he was very helpful in walking me through the steps I should take on how to turn the hot water off before it caused any water damage (which was not easy since I still have a landline phone). He then told me just what I needed and what time he would be there with the new hot water boiler and what the cost would be. And on every occasion, Ben was right on the money. For any other plumbing issues I may have in the future, I will definitely call Boston Standed up and first request Ben Strolsky for all my plumbing needs. I Give Ben An A++.

I’ve been a longstanding customer of Boston Standard and have always been impressed with the quality and professionalism of their services. Even with that, I had to write this review to rave about their HVAC technician Anthony Prosper who just finished up a thorough inspection of both my furnace and AC systems. He was fantastic to deal with - prompt to arrive, diligent in his attention to detail, and patient In explaining all of his findings to someone like me who’s not at all well-versed in all things HVAC. I was especially impressed to see that he took photos of each step of his inspection process so I could see exactly what he did - and also visually understand any of his findings which may require further work. This is a level of detail and proactive customer service which only underscores why I have been a loyal customer of Boston Standard all these years. Please send my regards to Anthony for his work today!

Our inducer broke on a Friday. Service technician was scheduled to arrive between 8 am and noon EST on Sunday. We received a text message at 11:59 am EST from Boston Standard indicating the technician was on his way - 1 minute prior to the window they provided to us for his arrival. Service technician did not ultimately arrive until 2:15 pm. Service technician inspected the unit and indicated the inducer needed to be replaced along with a diaphragm pressure switch. He indicated to us the parts had been replaced in April 2022 - only putting the parts at 9 months old. This was the same month we purchased the unit - previous owner had a home protection plan covering AC and heating. The service technician thought it was odd that the parts needed to be replaced so soon. He quoted us the cost to replace ($1,676) but indicated we should speak with the main office since he was unsure based on the account history of the unit if the parts were ever replaced or if they were replaced if they would be covered under warranty. My wife called Monday morning and the call center team indicated they were aware of the issue and a manager would call back after reviewing the case with the service technician. We received an email Monday afternoon from the customer service team and they indicated management policy was to not transfer warranties from one homeowner to another. We called the customer service team back and indicated that we understood but still wanted to speak with a manager to discuss if the parts were ever installed, root cause of why they broke etc. My wife was unable to speak with a manager and tried again two wards close of business on Monday unable to successfully speak with anyone other than the call center team. She tried again on Tuesday morning and I tried this time as well. No luck.In the interim, we received a quote from a competitor company for the same parts for $658 including labor. ~1k less than Boston Standard. We indicated to the Boston Standard customer service team that we wanted to continue with them since they had our unit history and were aware of the problems that might go wrong in the future. Still this did not change the ability of the customer service team to connect us with management.1 star review for the cost position of the company, promptness of the service technician, responsiveness of management and for the support management provide to their customer service team and ultimately end customers.

We called because our toilet valve started leaking. They were so nice and offered us multiple appointment slots over the next two days. We took the first! 8-12. Bill was here shortly after 8. They text with a reminder and then again when he’s on the way. Sent us a picture of him. We had called about 4 other places and they all said they could come out in about 7-9 days. Nothing definite yet, they’d let us know. That was stressful with running water!It’s hard because you don’t typically call a plumber unless you need one, now, and they prefer past customers. At least that was the first question they would ask me.Boston Standard was recommended multiple times on FB for their fast response time and quality of service.Bill was super friendly and knowledgeable.

I have been using Boston Standard for quite some time and this past experience has been awful. Technician Nate F. came into my AC check and after he left my furnace would not turn on. After inspecting my exterior AC unit, he said that the furnace was not relaying a signal to the outside unit. This was causing the outside unit not to work. That didn’t really make sense to me but I trusted his expertise. After he left, my basement furnace did not work and my home wouldn’t heat. And they could not get a technician out to rectify the situation. I’m very displeased.

Our air conditioner's air handler had a fuse blow on multiple occasions and we had Boston Standard come out to look at the unit. The air was kept at 65 degrees to make sure that the ac would not blow. A technician, Nate came in and looked at the unit and stated it should be at 70 degrees. I took that as his answer and paid the $159 for his visit. The condenser on the room wasn't checked as well. Nate stated if there was still an issue then someone would come out to us at no charge. We started to use it at 70 degrees as recommended and the fuse kept blowing again. We called Boston Standard again and they stated it would be another $159 for a technician to come out. When I informed them that it wasn't handled the first time the person who answered the phone named Michelle got very rude and stated it would still be another $159 for a second visit. We asked for a supervisor and Michelle stated they had all went home when the time of the call was 4:30 pm. Michelle refused to answer our questions and hung up on us. We were definitely displeased with the service and would never use Boston Standard again. It was a total scam.

I hired Boston Standard to replace my failing gas fired boiler. The salesman Leo was quick to respond with a detailed quote. Price was competitive. They offered a cash/check discount. They were able to fit me in quickly based on my semi-emergency. The crew showed up as scheduled and worked two long days to get me heat and hot water. Tim and Ty worked for 11+ hours the first day and 12+ hours the second. Leaving me with heat and hot water by 10:00pm on day 2. Tim came back the next day, Saturday, to finish up, clean up and have the factory rep check the unit for proper operation. I am very happy with the whole experience. The installation looks awesome. I highly recommend Boston Standard Plumbing.

I had a great experience with this company—first time using them for cooling needs. I needed a quick estimate and they sent someone out within a day. Nick Nasuti, their project manager, was very professional, thorough and attentive. He made sure he addressed all our questions and concerns about our proposed project.What I was the most impressed with was the fact that Nick really listened to us and seemed genuine with his advice. No hard sales here or anything like that. We told Nick what we needed and he delivered a quote within minutes. Lastly, Nick also followed through with a phone call and email a couple days later to make sure he hadn’t left any questions unanswered.We also had a great experience with Larry Furbish, their Sales & Marketing Coordinator. He also was very professional and pleasant on the phone and he really tried his best to accommodate us as much as possible.In the end, we had an amazing first impression and overall experience with this company and their team. We’ll sure be using them when we’re ready to take on our project in the not-so-distant future.

Overall had a great experience. Very professional, responsive, and reliable. However, the initial scope of work included 2 zones which was a big factor in why we went with them, but then on first day of work, they said they couldn't do 2 zones. That was very disappointing. I would have liked more consistency in the initial sales pitch with the actual work being done.

Kladji and his assistants, Chris and Declan, did a first-rate job of direct venting an existing furnace, installing a toilet, and repairing a risky pipe leak - all in one ten-hour day. Throughout the job, I kept asking for this and that option. Where they could accommodate my requests, they did. Where they couldn't - whether because of code or plumbing common sense - they explained kindly and thoroughly, never seeming impatient in the least. I'm extremely satisfied with their work and look forward to having Kladji back whenever the house needs something else.

I can not begin to say how much I like Boston Standard. They installed my new HVAC system last year. This time was my annual maintenance of that system. I had asked to also have a service call to look at some plumbing issues I was having. The representative on the phone was awesome. She said she would just have it done at the same time as my maintenance therefore saving me the service call fee. Not many places do that these days. Brandon and Dylan showed up on time and were great! I highly recommend Boston Standard.

This is an updated review of Boston Standard. Originally, I gave the service a rating of “1” due to a ridiculously overpriced faucet repair; I have now changed that to a “5.” Much to the Service Manager’s credit, he reached out to me immediately upon hearing about the review, investigated the matter and promptly applied a credit amounting to almost a third of the original cost.

BSC came out to help us take a look at an issue with our hvac system. Got charged a pretty decent investigation fee just to learn I had a problem.. which wasn’t particularly helpful. While they suspected it was a blockage, the only solution was to start cutting holes in the ceiling to locate a “potential issue”, which would then be on us to get fixed. I know some companies offer cameras that can be fed into the vents to diagnose. It’s 2021, BSC needs to catch up!

Generally the technicians are friendly and the work is done well, but the office is incredibly disorganized, and they are one of the most expensive companies out there. Appointments are often missed or arrive late without notice since they schedule jobs too tightly, there is a shortage of technicians right now so even priority customers are booking months out, and there is often confusion between the office and the technicians on what the job even is.

Boston Standard isn't the least expensive option, but it is by far the highest quality option. Their service is always professional, reliable, courteous, and friendly; the team does a great job talking through what they've seen and what needs repair, and they make it easy to move forward with next steps on what initially feels complicated. At the end of every visit I feel like I have a complete and holistic understanding of what is going on and what needs to happen next.Team members are also thoughtful in a way I hadn't anticipated--their administrative team assists with finding rebates/discounts through MassSave, which I think is stellar of them, and the visiting technicians always wear covers on their work boots, brought in our mail, and even offered to take in our trash barrels (my hands were tied with a newborn!). Seriously: these folks go above and beyond! We're super pleased.

We are very happy with our recent experience with and service received from BSC. Several of our LG ductless mini-splits were leaking (not installed by BSC), and we were desperate for some help during the recent heat wave. We called BSC on a Sunday and Erica was very nice on the phone and scheduled a diagnostic visit for us the next day. We are so thankful that they sent Daniel Delande, the HVAC technician, to our rescue. Not only does Daniel have 15+ years of experience, but he seems genuinely passionate about his work, about solving problems, and about helping people. He didn't just take the problems at face value, but was very detailed in his analysis and identified issues that prior companies did not. He also patiently walked us through what he was seeing and explained the issues at hand. He outlined a proposal and quote of the repairs, and we were able to quickly schedule the repairs to be completed by Daniel two days later. He's very diligent and conscientious, and it's clear he takes pride in his integrity and in doing a good job. The majority of our mini-splits are doing pretty well at the moment, except for one that is still leaking (unrelated to and outside of the scope of BSC, though Daniel helped us identify the issue) that we will need to address elsewhere. Thank you so much, Daniel!

This had to be one of the worst service experiences I have ever had. Not only did we suffer thru the hottest days of the year without cooling in our home, but it took over a month with multiple service visits each with increasing costs. At the end of the visit I did not have a stable working system until another vendor, with additional costs, came in and repaired what Boston Standard mis-wired.At the end of the day I would not recommend them, and would consider their warranty to be worth less than the paper it is written on.Edit: Apparently Joe replied to my review after posting and can’t even associate the dissatisfied customer with the correct problem. I never had a flood of my system. What I did have is over 4 different technicians from your organization visit my home to service my HVAC system, replacing several parts at your will. And to wrap it up mis-wired the system causing it to not remain stable. Either way if I could save one further client from dealing with poor service then this accurate review will have served its purpose.

Boston Standard was a delight to work with.I called them on a Monday afternoon because my central air was leaking water into the basement and the furnace smelled like something was burning. I spoke to someone who immediately scheduled a tech to come out -- in about fifteen minutes, since there happened to be someone nearby! Within two hours, they'd come out, replaced the filter (oops), unclogged the condensate drain, treated the evaporator coils and drain pan to prevent future buildup, checked the furnace to make sure the burning wasn't anything bad (just crud that had overflowed the pan), given me some advice on DIY and professional ways to keep the drain unclogged, and left me a happy customer.They also replaced a toilet wax ring just as professionally, and pointed out some future maintenance they could do now or later with no pressure to do it now. It wasn't an urgent call and I'm not on their home protection plan, so I ended up scheduled a week and change out, which was a bit disappointing but understandable.They are *not* the cheapest in the area for small jobs -- if you calculate the hourly rate, it sounds absurd! But that hourly rate has to cover paying the plumbers (including while they're driving!) and office staff, paying taxes and health insurance, keeping the truck fueled and maintained and stocked with parts, covering licensing and training and insurance, keeping the lights and phone and email and website on, and so much more. You may be able to get a job done cheaper elsewhere, but I'm happy paying extra to a company if it means I get better and smoother service.

The tech communicated his arrival time and was on time the morning of the service. JT and Jose were able to assess the problem and provide pricing each step of the way. I had gotten pricing for the work from other plumbers and Boston Standard was on the higher end however, the techs were professional, wore boot covers, cleaned up after themselves, completed the work in a single visit and provide a warranty. For the price difference, the professionalism was worth it in my opinion. Would use again.

Our furnace was blowing cold air. Daniel was friendly and professional. He listened well to my description of the problem. He was quick, but also took the time to explain everything well. Because there would be a wait for the part, he made an adjustment that would make it more likely our furnace would light and provide some heat in the meantime. He also showed concern for our safety when he checked on where we had a Carbon Monoxide monitor. (5 stars to Daniel)While Boston Standard advertises 24 hour emergency service, the current reality is that they don't have enough staff to respond to calls. I called Friday evening at 6 and was told that the weekend tech was already all booked. Thankfully, it wasn't terribly cold and we got service on Monday morning. (4 stars for Boston Standard)

I've had to use many contractors over the years and by far Boston Standard has renewed my faith. Finally a company that is truly customer oriented. Their overall work is phenomenal, but its the small details that most other companies overlook where Boston Standard excels themselves to be better than the rest. Their care for your property, like it was their own, truly puts you at ease. Their diligence in explaining problems, potential problems and presenting the customer with different options far surpasses what I'm use to with contractors who typically try to sell you the worse case scenario and charge you considerably higher prices than original estimate.Boston Standard came in and replaced my kitchen sink plumbing, toilet and bath tub plumbing quickly, efficiently and most importantly right.

I paid over $1000 for this company to not be able to solve my problem and potentially do more harm than good. Given it was a complicated job where the electric was cross wired with another unit in my building, I paid them to rewire my unit which wasn't even the problem. They told me the wiring was bad versus that is was connected to another unit. They then quoted me $6500 to replace my condenser and my neighbor, who had the same issue as mine, almost $7000. We ended up going with another company who did the work for $2700 each. Be careful of this company who are going to overcharge you for labor and didn't seem the most competent at their jobs.

We've had only good experiences with Boston Standard. Everyone who has visited our home has been very friendly and professional, and the folks in the office make working with them pretty easy. The owner has been very helpful on the phone and even made a service call himself when we were without heat a few years ago. Another time, the weekend on-call technician worked with me over the phone, and I was able to fix the very minor issue that prevented my furnace from firing, saving him a trip to my house and saving me the cost of a service visit.Perhaps one of the things I appreciate most is that they have never try to sell me something I don't need.

I can now water my plants! Boston Standard came to install an outdoor spigot in an area that my hose couldn't reach. Chris was friendly, arrived on time, wore booties in the house, and cleaned up everything. The project went exactly as planned. I'll definitely use Boston Standard again!

This is what a plumbing company should be. From start to date, 5 star service. I base a lot of my review upon the sub zero temps the last 2 weeks and the workload plumbers must be experiencing, that being said, the fact they answered the phone was astounding enough. Scheduling was easy and they showed up on time. Their quote was what I expected, better than most. Their work product and diagnostic ability is second to none. When a secondary problem was discovered, they immediately made me feel comfortable they would not abandon me. They’re probably my new plumbing service.

Jeff from Boston Standard was fantastic in diagnosing the issue with our AC, which wasn’t obvious at first, and then working assiduously to find the fan part we needed, which was not easy. He did a fantastic job explaining what was wrong and how it could be repaired. Then he squeezed us in to his busy schedule to do the repair. I would highly recommend Boston Standard for HVAC work.

The Best! We've used them for years on different properties. Always on time, responsive, and very professional. Have helped us out in emergencies, new install, and regular repairs on hot water tank and leaky pipes. The team answering calls is also great - always willing to listen and help. Also appreciate that they are very well organized - keeps track of all the service calls and information on different units and past calls. They are always our first call!

Our boiler stopped working on the evening of Memorial Day. I called at 9 that night and they were on site at 2:00 the next day. They diagnosed the problem, went and got the parts, and fixed it that day. In fact they stayed until 7 PM to finish the job as there was a programming issue that I suspected we had. For some reason the boiler was programmed to shut off at night. In the winter it would always be cold in the morning in our house. James and Tony were terrific. Boston Standard has always been reliable, prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. I like that they always take my calls and warranty the whole process. I’ve tried to get other plumbers to come. That was a frustrating process. Solved it with Boston Standard.

We spent months trying to find a company that would remove an ancient, broken, oil furnace and replace it with a central heat pump system. Most companies were unresponsive or unhelpful, and in some cases outright argumentative, refusing to give us a quote at all when we said we wanted to do a whole home heat pump conversion. From the moment we reached out to Boston Standard, everything was different. They understood that we needed a system in place before winter, developed options for various approaches we could take, coordinated and timed an install that included a replacement of our electrical panel, the addition of a new ducted air return, the installation of a whole home heat pump heat/ac system, and the installation of a third floor mini-split, and completed the work in a matter of days. For such an enormous project, there was almost no impact on our day-to-day, and any time there were small issues to discuss, the sales crew and on-site team were communicative, clear, and helpful. When we ran into difficulties with the Mass Save contractor, they helped reach out and expedite the work, and they coordinated/submitted all of the unwieldy paperwork for the rebates that are provided by MassSave. They also offered financing options and immediate cost savings for paying up front. Any work of this kind is going to be costly, but if you're going to pay for it, you want to know that the contractor understands how much you're investing, and is invested in making everything work for you. That's rare to find, and that's what we got with Boston Standard. True professionals.

James was very polite and knowledgeable. However, the actual job needed to be scheduled for a later time. I will add more comments after the job is completed.However, he was very pushy in collecting money from me, although I told him that his office agreed to send the bill to the owner, which they had her information. He called the owner and asked for the money, she immediately gave him her credit card info to use for payment. Both myself and the owner agreed that for money collection he acted like a bad debt collector and was rude and somehow disrespectful.

I discovered a pipe had frozen in my living room and water was leaking all over. It was a Sunday night and we had just had record low temps in Boston that weekend. Considering how busy plumbers were with emergency calls, I consider myself very fortunate to have called Boston Standard. They had an opening the next day! They showed up on time and located the leak quickly and set about to get it repaired. They were prepared with all the tools and materials they needed. They were very professional and very clean! I would highly recommend Boston Standard!

I spoke to a few maintenance service companies before choosing Boston Standard. Joanie was by far the most helpful at explaining what we get (and didn't) and she had a terrific attitude, which I think goes a long way. It is a service industry, right? I'll ding her a bit since she screwed up our first service appointment (booking me at 9:30pm instead of 9:30am so I was left waiting around that day). But she made it right afterwards.Lily was our service tech, and she was outstanding. I had a lot of questions and she answered them all. I know my HVAC system is in very good hands. Plus, if I have a plumbing problem, I'll know who to call!

Overall a negative experience with this company. I called them in 2014 after moving in to a new house. I had a leaking water line feeding a spigot in the backyard. Water was leaking in to the basement. Appointment was scheduled and they fixed it by installing a new shut off valve, spigot, and pipe connecting the two. Took a couple of hours and was $120. Not bad. The guys were very nice and professional, though I thought it was odd they asked to borrow my electric drill. Wouldn't you have that on your truck?Skip ahead a year. I had shut off that new spigot for the winter and when I turned it back on in the spring, the valve burst and water went everywhere in the basement. Called them back up and they came out to fix it under warranty. They did this and it worked for the rest of the season.Skip ahead a year. Again, I shut it off for the winter and go to turn it on in the spring. The valve didn't burst but it's leaking. Put a bucket under it and call them back up. This is where things sort of fell apart. Whoever answered the phone and talked to me hung up on me in the middle of me responding to a question. I thought my phone dropped the call, so I called back only to be directed to the answering service. At this point I'm thinking I should call a different place. So I did and scheduled an appointment with another plumber. Boston Standard called me back in the evening, which I thought was odd, wanting to confirm scheduling the appointment. I said I was confused by this and also did they hang up on me while I was answering a question. The answer was yes and the explanation was that they were determining if it could be fixed under warranty since I was technically a few days over the 1 year mark. I said I called a different plumber and they happily said ok, great, bye! (more or less).The people seem nice, but they don't seem to do quality work for these small repairs. The plumber I had come out commented on a number of things. First, the shutoff valve was installed in an unsual way which required the handle to be bent upwards. They also used O-rings which were not installed correctly. And the part itself was of very low quality. Furthermore, the spigot was installed incorrectly too.Everything is fixed now, but I don't think I will call Boston Standard again.

Boston Standard was here twice in the last week. First, Frank and Tim installed a temporary water heater so we would have hot water while we waited for the install of our new furnace and hot water heater (and air conditioning system). The first indication that they were professionals was that they immediately began to put booties on without me asking. They were polite and professional, finished in less than the estimated time, and did a great job.Then, Frank and Kyle came on Thursday to install our new system. Once again, polite and professional. They did a fantastic job — rearranged some things to give us a bit more space in the basement, set everything up, made sure it worked, cleaned up well. Even though there was a slight miscommunication with the office and the two-day install window was a bit short for a system that included air conditioning, the guys worked hard to get the whole thing done in that timeframe. And, except for a few things that Frank came back to do today (because it got too dark yesterday to finish), they managed to do it. An amazing job.A quick note about Leo, who came to look at our old system and propose a new one. He spent way more time than anyone else giving me a proposal had, and his proposal was very clear and reasonably priced. He also was available to answer all my questions — I had many — and even answered my text while he was away on vacation to help fix an issue with the temp water heater.Based on these experiences, I would unhesitatingly recommend Boston Standard.

He took photos and checked out possible leaks coming from my upstairs neighbors. As a result of his visit I will have the ceiling partially removed so that the exact source of the leak is found and repaired.

I had a very simple/straightforward job, so my experience may not be indicative of bigger work, but Boston Standard was a pleasure to deal with. Scheduling them was straightforward, they communicated frequently and expediently, and they were reasonably priced. I asked a lot of questions about the checkup/maintenance work the tech was performing on my boiler, and he was very courteous in going over everything he was doing in detail. I wasn't shy about telling him I'd rather not have to hire him to do it again and he didn't mind at all, the work he did was easy enough for any DIYer to do. But next time I need serious work done on my heating system, I know who I'll call!

As a new customer it was quite a wait between when I scheduled my preventive maintenance and my actual appointment, but it wasn't an emergency, so that was fine. Our tech Olivia arrived right on time - perhaps even a little early - and I was surprised to hear that she'd been here before (previous owners used Boston Standard as well). It's great to know that their techs stay with the company long term. Olivia checked out our boiler, cleaned it, and made sure it was in good working order. She made sure we knew how to light the pilot in case it goes out and explained a bit more about some upcoming maintenance the system may need now that it's 15 years old. We signed up for the annual contract, which seems to be a good deal. Great experience overall and will continue to use them. Thanks Olivia and team!

I am very disappointed in the service provided. The two techs that were sent spent maybe 30 minutes looking at the system (did not test anything or do any actual work that was listed as Diagnostic level 1 on my invoice) and then disappeared for 45 min to call to get quotes for the work. This cost me $386.90. I was told my block was cracked and needed to be replaced or my boiler needed to be replaced. After speaking to three other contractors, they all confirmed I should not replace my boiler in its current state. The other companies also all gave me quotes to replace the system if I wanted to at almost half the cost I was quoted by Boston Standard for the same work. This is predatory behavior in my opinion, and I hate to think your company stands for overcharging folks who do not do the diligence to get multiple opinions/quotes. In the past I have only had good interactions with your company, but this last service call left me very unhappy.2.18.2021 update - Boston Standard was very responsive with my concerns and actually gave me a refund on the diagnostic service charge (which I wasn't expecting at all). They said they would look at the quotes given to ensure that they were not including additional work that might not be necessary at the immediate moment. I'm happy with how responsive they were to my concerns and I'd suggest dealing with Dan as he is a consummate professional.

I usually don't write reviews but I felt compelled to write this one because I could not believe how I was treated and to warn other people about dealing with that company. I had a thankless water heater for 12 years and suddenly it started to work properly. I called Boston standard and you told that the unit needs service and that will fix the problem Paid 523 dollars. A few days later the same error code and the problem. They came and placed a pump for 408 dollars and was told everything is fixed. Unfortunately few days later same problem. Called a different plumber who advised a new system and he replaced my old heater. Called to the owner and he hang up on me and refused to reimburse my money almost a 1000 dollars, The new system cost me 1500 dollars.I had to let people know Bad business , very expensive and not friendly get a quote from somebody else. I feel very horrible writing this review but i felt compelled to share my experience

UPDATE: I had someone out to do a leak test for less than what it cost me for Boston Standard to do a 30 minute diagnostics. Doubling down on DO NOT USE BOSTON STANDARD for small projects unless you want to be robbed.Boston Standard came out to look at my mini-split system because there is a leak or clog in the refrigerant so the units haven't been cooling. Mind you, this system is less than a year old. When they arrived I told them I had done some trouble shooting with Mitsubishi support already and came to the conclusion that it was a leak or a clog (which is pretty typical for mini-split issues like this). Boston Standard sent two technicians out to run diagnostics which resulted in them telling me there MIGHT be a leak or clog. They charged a ridiculous $550 to tell me what I already knew and had already told them. They then quoted me $7,500 just to preform a leakage test. That quote didn't include any actual repair work, that was just to locate the leak. I don't even want to know what they would charge me to do any actual work. In short, don't use Boston Standard for small projects unless you want to pay an obscene amount. Maybe that is the going rate right now, but speaking to a technician for 20 minutes to be charged $550 for something I already knew, and then quoted another $7,500 just to locate the problem BEFORE any corrective work is even done just feels like robbery.

I was told the install would take 1.5 days and it took two full days. When they left the job on the 2nd day there was an open hole and huge mess of equipment, tools and trash left in my basement. The outside vents never had covers put on them. After I called they returned Tuesday, after being late, to complete the work. Since I had been a loyal customer from 2015 spending around $35000 with Boston Standard I asked for some kind of discount for this horrible experience and was told no. I will never use Boston Standard again.

We are very disappointed with the service.First, I called several times to schedule and confirm the arrival time. I was told it's 8-9am and we'll be the first one in the day. However, the arrival window was changed to 11am-noon without giving me any notice. Then they arrived around 1pm. I live in a condo and I had our maintenance guy start waiting from 8am. He needed to work several extra hours because of the delay and I need to pay for that.Second, I was told I was charged half of the invoice when I scheduled the work. However, when I checked my credit card activity later, I was charged the full amount. I had to call them several times to get that sorted out and I was told it has been taken care of. Then when the work finished, I was told to pay another half price. I had to call them again to resolve this. If I missed checking my credit card activity, I would be charged 150% of the price...Thirdly, when I got the quote, the technician was very specific that this work was going to take 8 hours and that was what the quote was based on. When I called to schedule the work, I was told immediately only 4 hours are needed, which makes me question the accuracy of the quote.So overall, there are many steps that went wrong, which makes the whole process very disappointing.

From the initial contact to completed service Boston Standard was 100% professional. I’d been working with another service company that went out of biz. A tankless water heater the initial company installed wasn’t able to provide HW to one of our showers. The other company had diagnosed a problem with the WH and was suggesting hefty repair and replacement. Boston Standard techs came in and diagnosed a faulty shower head and replaced the innards of the faucet. Voila hot water!! The techs arrived wearing masks, gloves and booties and never removed them during service. They worked clean, quickly and respectfully in our home and I thought the price was fair. They were also very clear and communicative from start to finish. I received texts confirming service as well as a courtesy call 15 min before arrival. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend BSC.

I have been a long-time customer of Boston Standard, in fact I pay them a monthly fee which is supposed to include two annual system inspections and priority service. I had the summer AC inspection scheduled last week, and waited all day for a technician that never showed up. I rescheduled for today and it happened again. Despite receiving confirmation texts, no one ever arrived. Boston Standard has been extremely unresponsive and unapologetic. If this is their priority service, I can’t even imagine how they are treating everyone else. I waited 20 minutes on hold, but no one answers their phones either. Look elsewhere for service.

They are an absolute rip-off. I had them come over to fix the Viesmann Boiler. They wanted $2700 for it and wanted to replace some parts. So I said - No thank you and paid them $300 for a 30 minute visit. I then called up another company and they showed me the parts that needed to be cleaned up. The guy worked for a couple of hours, cleaned up what needed to be done. I am expecting a bill of around 300 (have not paid them anything yet). Do not use Boston Standard.

Frank and his apprentice Kyle spent two days installing a new heat pump for me (heat and AC). They were polite, careful, and as clean as can be. The electrician that was supposed to come wire the unit could not make it on the last day of the installation which means I am without heat for two days but that isn't the fault of Frank or Kyle. Hence the 4 starts. Boston Standard did leave me with space heaters free of charge. Still overall a relatively positive experience given the high price tag.

Mike was able to answer all my questions and helped me understand the process whenever I asked him any questions. My experience and satisfaction with his work is top notch. Mike was very polite, and even cleaned up and swept up after himself.The company's office always called me back and were always able to respond to my calls or emails. They were very professional and were also able to recommend other help in order to get this project done.Overall I would 100% call them again if I ever needed some similar work done.

I am shocked by the negligence of Boston Standard.This company installed a mini split AC unit in my apartment in 2014. During the summer of 2021, the unit began to leak into my apartment, to the point where it would fill a bucket each hour. I had the drain lines cleaned out by a different company and they suggested that the condenser needed to be serviced.This is when I called Boston Standard. They asked for photos of the condenser. Based on the photos, they suggested that they could not service it. The reason is that it had been installed on the exterior wall of my second floor unit, about 15 feet off the ground. They claim they cannot access it and that I should call the company that originally installed it. Apparently they don't have ladders.I bought my unit in 2021 so contacted the previous owner to find out who installed the AC. Low and behold - it was installed by Boston Standard. I had several pleasant exchanges with a woman at the company about this, but at this point the weather had cooled and it was beyond the optimum time to service a mini split unit. We agreed that I should call back in Spring of 2022.With summer approaching, I tested my unit last week. Still leaking into my living room, I called Boston Standard for service. I received an email response stating that they cannot service it and that I should call the company that installed it.Well...Boston Standard, you installed it. And apparently installed it in such a way that you can't even service it. What gross negligence. And what an awful company that they would just keep responding with the same lazy and tired response to contact those who installed it.I would not recommend Boston Standard to anybody. They are clearly incapable and have very poor customer service standards.

$350 to fix a running toilet is the main reason I cannot recommend Boston Standard to anyone. This is the second time, I used them after having them install a dishwasher for me about a month ago. I thought they were very high then but I decided to give them another shot. I got the call today that it would be over $350 to stop a toilet from running. When I said but I can buy a whole new toilet for $300, Tom the Plumber laughed and said but we charge $800 to install it. I told Tom the Plumber that I was unhappy, go ahead and fix it, he called his boss then he left leaving me with a running toilet. This company needs to be avoided at all costs.

They showed up to disconnect the stove they toll me it was a standard cost of $1,053.00. Since I was already out a service charge & I needed done to receive the new stove I had to pay $524.00 for 2 minutes of work. I called to complain and I got nowhere. I got someone else the next day to hook up the new stove for $263

I would love to speak highly of Kai Wilkinson, who conducted the inspection of my plumber system at home. In addition to his great skills and over 15 years experiences, I wanted to highlight his amazing communication skills and patience. He explained very well on my questions and helped me better understand my system. For example, he well explained to me the different functions and pipe line under my kitchen sink and gave me a heads up about how to maintain well on the sink system as well as how to fix the sink issue by looking for a granite company. If I were his boss, I will give him a promotion or about 15% salary increase this year to retain this talent and recognize his well-versed skills in plumbing and fantastic communication skills as a person. I would also highly recommend Kai no matter where he works in the future.

The positive: They are very responsive, and came out each time we had our (repeating) problem.The negative: After paying for a tune-up and getting a clean bill of health, we started having intermittent failure of our heat. We paid for the useless replacement of three components and for additional service calls before the actual problem was finally identified and fixed. (And one of the multiple service people actually correctly identified the problem relatively early on, but the one who came to follow up decided the diagnosis was wrong, leading to multiple dead ends and costs.) The total cost was about twice what a correct diagnosis and repair would have cost us if they had occurred at the beginning of our saga; and the company refused to make any adjustment.

Avoid by all means! Called and asked to repair the leak in bathroom. I was not home during the repairs but asked to communicate any issues or if any walls need to be opened. The guy came, demolished the entire ceiling, charged over $400 to replace a $35 shower valve cartridge. Less than 5 days later the leak happened again. Another guy came, looked at the shower valve and said its not their part that caused the leak. Broke drain assembly, left parts sitting in the tub. I called and asked to come back and repair the parts they left dissembled. Third guy came said that thread is stripped and it will cost me another $500 to repair. They beg people and offer money to remove bad reviews. I have case open on BBB against these crooks too.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE! DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY!! My story -- I scheduled an appointment and was informed the technician would arrive between 12-5pm and it was impossible to provide a more specific timeframe. I called in twice and told the service team I had an hour drive to get to the property and needed a more specific timeframe. 4pm arrives AND STILL no technician calling me or informing me the appointment would need to be rescheduled. I called in again to the service team - they were both rude and unappreciative of their scheduling mistakes. They would not offer any discounts, reimbursements or even acknowledge that I was ignored as a paying customer. PLEASE DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. I will never use the company again or recommend their services.

Had Boston Standard over for a few jobs in the past few years. Generally good company and the plumbers are very professional.Four stars are for price: they charge flat rate fees, which sounds good on paper but in practice can end up costing more than it should (ie 4 different repairs done in 2 hours cost $1000, where if it were hourly it should cost much less). You get what you pay for though and I would use BSP again.

Although my initial review was written as a disgruntled customer, I can follow up by saying that this company stands firm to following up to hear what their customers are saying. The owner and another representative reached out to connect both by phone and email and looked into my complaints related to a delayed quote and lack of response related to my email with questions on the quote breakdown. They were apologetic and willing to follow up so that other customers will not have our initial experience. After connecting with them and being reassured that this would help others, I feel confident to say I would stand by a company that stands by their customers or potential customers. Call me old school- but that's how business should be.

Great job installing new furnace and water heater. Prices are high. Very difficult getting estimates prior to paying for a technician visit. Recent maintenance on our furnace was incomplete, caused it to malfunction and cost too much to fix. Some technicians are very knowledgable. The use of substandard equipment which has a too short life is problematic, especially when paying top dollar for labor. Wish I could be more positive. Sorry.

On April 19 the air conditioning units on all 3 floors of our house were inspected/maintained as per our contract. At the time the tech suggested replacing the starter capacitor on the 3rd floor unit. He gave us a proposal and price ($621.90) for the service. We did not question the price at the time. On May 12 we had the starter capacitor replaced, a process that took about 20 minutes. We were charged $621.90. Given the replacement part and the time to replace it, the price seemed excessive so we did some some research. What we found was that the part would cost well under $100 and the labor would not exceed a couple of hundred dollars in Boston. The maximum charge for services elsewhere never exceeded $400.We understand that Boston Standard up charges both parts and labor and we fully accept that; however, $621.90 is outrageous for a job in Boston that, on the highest end, does not exceed $400.We called Boston Standard on May 12 and explained our concern. We were told that someone would get back to us. No one did. After waiting a week and receiving two requests for an online (good) review - it was suggested that we call the company directly if we were not pleased - we sent an email explaining our experience and again stating that no one contacted us. We also said that we would be posting a not-so-pleased review if we didn’t hear from them. Again, no response.It is with much difficulty that we are submitting this review. It is not our intention to ever call out a company without allowing them to respond. In this case we feel we have no choice.We have no issue with the workmanship or the tech who was thorough, professional and responsive to our needs and questions. Although we have no issue with Boston Standard’s up charging, $621.90 is excessive even by Boston’s highest charges.

I've been with Boston Standard for the past two years. As a first time home owner, I had a lot to learn and I've always been impressed with the time their technicians have taken to explain things to me and show me how various systems work. They've helped with a range of issues, including a tricky new gas stove installation, leaky toilet, fixing my heat when it broke during subzero temperatures, and routine care for my HVAC system. Their services are the highest quality and the technicians are outstanding, both for their knowledge and professionalism. Their costs are competitive, but usually on the higher end of the scale. However, with that cost comes dependability, excellent customer service and professionalism, which makes their services stand out.

They are super responsive, however, when it comes to the real business, it is a total mess. The company send one guy to repair my gas furnace, he didn't even really found out where the problem is, he then offered a ridiculuouly expensive quote of more than 800 dollars. According to him, the gas valve is broken, in fact, it is not. He tried so hard to sell the annual maintainence kit to me. Dude, get the repair work done before any nonsense. this company's major focus is to take the chance to rip you off instead of offering some serious service. I finally find another company who took care of my furnace with 150 dollars.

I found myself needing to replace my non-working central AC and in the process of looking at what that entailed, decided to also replace my heating system to match the new AC.After several weeks of research on what was the best system for me, I then understood a quality install is just as important. Using Mass Save for 0% financing, I took their recommendation to obtain multiple quotes. While Boston Standard was the most expensive of the 4 quotes I solicited, I ultimately chose them in the end because of how detailed they explained my project, and also because their written proposal was the most comprehensive of the quotes I received. I felt I knew EXACTLY what I was signing on for.My project was not without hiccups but what I felt set Boston Standard apart was of how responsive they were. The office staff addressed all of my questions in a timely manner, and the technicians and electricians working in my home were professional, friendly, respectful, knowledgeable, and ON TIME every day! Don't get that too often anymore! I felt very comfortable going to my job every day leaving them to do their work, getting a full report at the end of each day.Prior to signing the contract, I did see Boston Standard received some negative reviews. I know you cannot please all of the people all of the time and yet, I will admit, they did make me pause. Something else kept me from caving in to those reviews and now that I have the Cadillac of heating and cooling expertly installed, I am so VERY glad I chose the Trane variable speed, and am even happier I chose the most expensive estimate for install in my pile. They did not disappoint. You really do get what you pay for. I would recommend Boston Standard Company to anyone without hesitation.

After trying a few other companies for a repair issue, we were referred to Boston Standard by a neighbor and the service experience with Brian Mason was exceptional; his professionalism, diagnostic expertise, recommendation and response time.Our repair required a few visits which was managed in a timely and efficient manner.The company provides a multitude of photos, diagnostic reports and pricing options after each visit so the entire process is transparent and clearly explained to the customer. And they were always pleasant and nice to us.I highly recommend requesting Brian Mason for any diagnostic issues as we will do going forward. We’ll also be signing our annual service contract with them.As my neighbor observed, they’re on their game.

$150ish fee to diagnose. Then either $300 to change fuse, or recommended putting in circuit breaker for over double that, as it would be better for the long run. System still didn't work, so another diagnostic fee, which resulted in them saying the system is too old and should be junked. Thanks for charging me over $1000 in repairs and fees before telling me that.---------------------------------------------------------------------------About a month later they refunded the majority of those fees, so overall the experience was ok, and I may use them for future repairs.

If you live in a residential area in the city and your job isn't big enough forget it... I see them parked in front of my house almost everyday and they would not service my AC... i was told they could not do it. but yet they are working next door to me... If you plan on using them good luck otherwise i'm sure you'll be paying big money for there service.

Joe Blomquist is one of the most service-driven, professional, and friendly people I have ever met. He did excellent work in an efficient manner, and it is clear in talking to him that he takes pride in what he does. And it shows! I joked with him that it’s a shame he’s so good at what he does- it likely means we won’t need to hire him again any time soon. In a world where service is a dying art, Joe is a hall of famer. First ballot.

My heating system was getting old and tired and I decided to replace it. I contacted 4 companies, Atlantic Heat, Addario, Boston Standard and one more through Lowe's. They showed up, took a look, and 3 out of 4 actually sent me a quote. Atlantic wouldn't deal with combi system - which I wanted, Addario had quite a few negative reviews, MacFarlane Energy did not even bother with the quote, the guy who showed up, supposedly being a vice-president - that's what his business card said - left with the statement - I wouldn't put Navien heater in my dog's house. He did not respond to my e-mails.On the other hand, the representative from Boston Standard, Leo Pesegoginski, was very professional, very thorough, and impressed me as a person I could trust. So after all I decided to go for the offer from them.I was not disappointed. They did a very good job in installation, cleaned up after the job was done, made sure everything works. The other important thing was that they helped me with arranging the financing of the project - something I would never figure out myself.They are very responsive to e-mails and easy to contact.I would strongly recommend this company for your heating and plumbing needs.

I called Boston Standard knowing I had a leak in my freon lines that was not easy to detect. I am no idiot, and did all the basic troubleshooting myself, checked voltages, obvious leaks at both ends of the system, etc. I told the person over the phone that I had done all this and I would prefer for them to do a more detailed review. They arrived onsite and only repeated what I told them I had done. Then they said it would cost me $2000 to do a full leak check with no guarantees. I paid them 400$ for the visit only for them to leave with no answers. I found an alternative company who performed the leak check and was able to find the source in under 30 min and for less than $300.Essentially, they left me without answer and took my money anyways, they didn't do anything to help me understand more of my situation. They should refund me my money.Update: I was able to find and fix the leak by replacing my indoor evaporator for less than 2500. The employees here just know how to do the basics. If you have a real problem find someone else.

I paid Boston Standard to come out to diagnose a heating issue on a Sunday. The technician Daniel was very professional and quick to diagnose the heating system issue. I chose to not use their services to fix the issue. Personally, the cost to address the problem was overpriced. I know what the part costs and the amount of labor time it took me to replace it myself. I am very happy to pay 1 hour labor and the part cost. This should have cost less than $500 total. The quote was for over $1500. This is taking advantage of elderly people.

Boston Standard has installed and maintained our gas steam boiler. They did a great job on the boiler (helpful customer service that answered a lot of questions, quick turn around, good price). I just had them out for a non urgent but annoying frequently clogged toilet. It was easy to make an appointment and they were communicative about when they were coming. The two guys that came out were respectful of my covid precautions - my most pressing concern. Further, they were friendly and clearly communicated the steps they would take along with my options including prices. They did a great job with the toilet, were quick, and the price seemed reasonable. Cleaned up after the work too. I am grateful for Boston Standards professionalism, expertise, quality work, and friendly staff.

Boston Standard is simply one of the best contractors we've ever worked with. The project manager (Kyle) and the whole team (among them, Matt) were super helpful, came up with creative, cost-effective solutions for all the issues we had, and were very professional -- calling well in advance to schedule appointments, accomodating our tight timeframes, leaving the space spotless, and sending the same team to assure continuity. We've had quotes over the years to install AC but we never felt like the companies understood how to deal with an old townhouse. We ultimately went with Boston Standard because the project manager clearly thought everything through and was really focussed on finding the right solution that worked within our narrow constraints. The system works great. The venting for our stove was also done exceptionally well (Wilson) -- Boston Standard workers fit it into a very narrow space expertly. We're very happy with the work and would highly recommend them to anyone.

I've dealt with 5 different HVAC companies in the last ten years for my house, and Boston Standard easily stood out from the rest. Most recently, my furnace failed on one of the coldest days of the year, and on a Saturday no less. I wasn't, at that time, a preferred customer so I didn't get priority service, but I ended up troubleshooting my problems on the phone with the owner of the company. I got things fixed, and he's got my loyalty, and I'm now subscribing to their preferred customer program because I now truly trust the quality and ethics of this company. I've also been learning a lot about HVAC over the years and everything they've done seems to be good judgement and high quality. Other companies took shortcuts or did sloppy work. I recommend BSP without any hesitation.

I replied that I misunderstood the hours and that I would like to book an appointment for some time during the week because this was not an emergency call. She abruptly hung up without an explanation. I can only assume this line is for HVAC emergencies on the weekend. Instead of taking the extra 20 seconds to explain this she hung up.

Update 12/30: I reached out to Boston Standard and explained the situation to them and they refunded half of the cost back to meThis company is a complete and utter ripoff. I had a leak in my three year old toilet and a tech came out ($160 DISPATCH FEE) and then told us that he needed to fix a wax ring underneath the toilet as that is most likely the problem. After a couple of hours he told us that he could not fix it and that the toilet should be replaced because there was a crack in it, even though he couldn't see a crack. Then we were given a bill for over $800 for him to not even fix the toilet and he told us he had to leave for another job. Then gave us an quote for $1200 to replace the toilet.I'm not sure how a company can get away with coming out and not even fixing the problem and charging you almost $1000 and then quoting you even MORE to replace the toilet, and then just leaving without fully solving the issue. Why would I have not just replaced the toilet in the first place if it's almost the same price? Nothing about this makes sense.Do NOT use Boston Standard for any plumbing needs, go to a reputable and trustworthy smaller company that won't rip you off and actually cares about helping people, not just milking their customers for as much money as possible.

A few months back I called to schedule an appointment and the person I spoke with on the phone said she couldn't finalize the appointment and someone else would reach out to me later. That call never happened. I followed up a few weeks later and find out that an appointment was already made without any discussion with me. Not a big deal, but I would've appreciated if someone let me know that an appointment was already made or called me to finalize the date/time.

Technician was very friendly, knowledgable and honest about problem (or lack of) problem and all of the options available to me. (Was noticing a moldy smell coming through my vents when I used my AC)I am only giving 4 stars because I was bit surprised by the cost. I knew there was a $99 service fee to get company out to the home and check the unit. But there is also a $99 diagnostic fee. We couldn't find a clear problem and so no work was actually done. Offerred to do a cleaning of system but I declined at the time. I was expecting the charge to be $99 but it was actually $198 (service call +diagnosis). I do believe the $99 price for a service call fee is a bit deceiving because it is actually always a minimum of $198 to have them come look at your unit because a diagnosis needs to be made as well.

Save your time and money. They fixed nothing, but charged me $99 for a dispatch fee and then $303 as a diagnostic fee. Basically, they called the company that made the machine and pointed out some things that need to be fixed. Then ultimately said that a new entire heating system is the solution for the price of $15,000. Tried to make it sound great by offering payment plans and credit. Got a new HVAC specialist who was able to repair what they could not and just looked at. Companies like these are tricky because they charge you for doing very little, but really want the big bucks of a new system.

I started using BSC after having a different company install a new gas furnace (Gibson series) that gave me nothing but trouble. after at least 12-15 times the installation company came out to repair it i decided to try BSC. They came out and performed a service on the old system and ultimately ended up replacing the control panel (costly) but it was not as bad as i had joined their service contract that gives you certain %'s off work, parts and you get moved up as a prime customer.So, I find out that I needed over 3600 dollars of work on the old Gibson that is now 13 years old. I was in the process of redoing my house when covid hit and the cost of everything if you could even get it skyrocketed. The hvac system was on the list to get replaced. Well Thanksgiving morning the Gibson died. I placed a call on Friday morning and got an answering machine telling me I would receive a call back within 1/2 hour. After placing about 8 calls throughout the day I finally receive an email on Sunday telling me I would be contacted on Monday by a sales manager. understand that they say they are 24 hour 7 day 365 day service on their site but the email said they were closed for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Monday comes and I get a phone call saying they could get someone to come on Thursday at 1st but I told them that was too long, then we tried for Tuesday but I had another company coming in to price the job for me. I was asked to hold on and suddenly someone could make it out today. Leo came out and we went through what I wanted to do and what I wanted as far as furnaces go. Originally told that it could be up to 2 weeks for the installation but also told that people change their minds all the time. Well, I was lucky as I get a call that Thursday opened up. Thursday they are there early and start removing the Gibson. Unfortunately, there was a delay of about 2 hours as the new furnace had not arrived yet. Once the furnace did arrive, they tried to get the new ducting fitted as this was thinner and taller than the previous furnace. They worked past the time they should have left and got it done that day even showing how to use the new wi-fi enabled thermostat. They cleaned up the basement and overall was happy with the installation. I will be scheduling a further service as I am changing the house to a 2 part hvac system and adding ac and all new ducting.Update 03/22/22I noticed that the vent hood outside had come off during the winter. A quick call to Boston Standard had a tech out in a few hours and the piece repaired. Still doing a great job!Update 10/4/22Had an appointment for a service on the furnace. I planned to be there but the time was changed to 2 hours after the original time . Bill came and did a service on the Trane. He took photos and sent them to me afterwards. Also replaced the filter. Have been in contact with bill over a small thing and am waiting for his reply. Still think they are doing a great job.

From assessment to completion, this project couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Boston Standard staff was consistently punctual and professional, work was clean and organized. The inefficient WeilMcClain boiler relied on a maze of piping to supply our radiators and storage tank and was sitting on over 24 sq ft of limited basement space. The new wall mounted Lochinvar combi system gave us unobstructed paths to our laundry area, with clear supply lines, an easily accessible shutoff/purge valve for multiple zones. Air intake/venting were strategically placed to avoid patio area (which was greatly appreciated for aesthetic reasons). The electrical team was equally impressive utilizing the existing chase to run wiring for multiple thermostats, exterior sensor and multiple zone relay. The project managers were constantly involved and followed up to ensure all worked well. The rebate team ensured we sent in required documentation in a timely manner. This project moved us from a system 75% efficiency rating to a top of the line 95%. We truly appreciated the varied possibilities offered during the initial walk through. This knowledgeable team ensured that we set our house up to meet energy needs right now and for expansion projects in the near future. It was lovely to work with a company that layered in all necessary teams from assessment and planning, to removal and disposal of old equipment to complete installation with both electrical and plumbing and to receive high quality service from all.

Boston Standard Company parks their van on the sidewalk. This is illegal, dangerous, and disrespectful behavior. They prefer to destroy public infrastructure and force pedestrians to walk in the street, rather than walk 50 feet from a real parking space to their work site. If you don’t know how to park, you should not be driving. I would never invite these people into my home.Edit: Their response below -- with no apology and no indication that they will make any changes in the future -- shows that they stand by this illegal, dangerous behavior. If this is how they park, just imagine the kinds of corner-cutting they are willing to do to your plumbing!

Boston Standard earned my business diagnosing a furnace problem that had stumped even the original installer. I’ve relied on them a few times over a couple years, for both furnace and AC. The technicians have all been excellent professionals, the dispatchers are all friendly and knowledgeable, and they have always been prompt in scheduling a visit when the need is urgent (like an AC failure right before the July 4th weekend). Unsurprisingly platinum-level service comes at a premium price— particularly their eye-watering markup for replacement parts —but I will continue to use them, and recommend them, for the peace of mind that comes from top-quality service being delivered quickly.

The Boston Standard Co. crew of Antoine and his partner did a great job with the installation of a new boiler and hot water heater. They were very professional and communicated well throughout the 3-day installation. Their workmanship got a thumbs up from my relative who is a plumber. We are very happy with our experience and the end result.

I have been working with Boston Standard Plumbing since 2014. They have managed my heat and hot water since then. The best thing about this company is the honesty of the owner, and the personal care he takes to his customers. I honestly don't know anything about plumbing so I have trusted in this company to make all decisions and properly advice me for what needs to be done. At one point, a mistake was made by a technician (as mistakes happen), and I would have never known if Joe himself (the owner) didn't call me to apologize, explain the entire mistake and how it happened, take responsibility and ensure I was first on the list to have it solved immediately. He obviously credited me back the funds that went into the mistake and took full responsibility. This to me means more than anything. I could go with any plumbing company and I would believe whatever I am told. But now, I know, that Joe reviews his technicians work and when something isnt right he ensures he corrects it. Its kind of like going to the doctor- I just go and trust them to do whats best. I dont know the entire system.... how could I. Joe makes me feel confident that I can entrust in him the same way. The mistake wasnt even a big mistake. Just the amount of time and effort he personally put into it really impressed me. That is customer service. No automated calls, no online chats, a direct call and honest apology followed by a solution. Very refreshing. Proud to be their customer.

I was impressed with their professionalism, honesty, and reliability throughout the process of them assessing my current heating system and generating a quote. I specifically worked with Dave Lenane who was very knowledgeable and provided prompt follow up to all of my questions. We decided to go with another installer for the job who was a friend of the family. Would definitely recommend including them in any quotes or estimates if considering home heating updates.

Good company and very responsive! The technicians (Kai and Thomas Marcus) were great! They were professional, knowledgeable, and provided clarity on what was a very complicated issue. They were helpful in explaining all of my potential options and even provided quotes for each option which made things much easier. The costs were a bit above my range but reasonable and what could be expected for such quality service. I would definitely use them again!

Daniel was extremely helpful repairing my AC unit. Went above and beyond to find an access point to a very inconveniently placed unit. Even found a solution to a wiring problem that would’ve left me with a larger issue. He spent hours making sure I had AC and walked me through the process so I could understand what was happening. Had a positive vibe and easy to talk to.I do think there needs to be better communication by the company bc this was the 6th visit I had to fix the issue. One of the visits was a no-show and I had to reach out to ask if anyone was coming. Only then did they tell me. The workers have always been good. But for paying a monthly fee to be a member I would hope for better operational performance by management.Giving 5 stars because of Daniel today. Other wise, it’d be lower.

Ben Strolsky and an assistant were my technicians. They were punctual, professional, accommodating, respectful, patient, competent, and extremely knowledgeable. Ben and his assistant did one of the best installation of a Navien Combi broiler I have ever seen, to be clear this was my 4th Combi broiler install and by far the best experience I have had. Not to mention, they left the work area cleaner than how they found it. Before leaving the work site, Ben explained what was done and answered all of my questions, I never felt rushed. Furthermore, when this company says they want to insure the customer is satisfied with their service, they truly mean it. After having a some what unpleasant experience with one of their technician. I was contacted by Emily immediately, who rectified the situation and left me feeling like a valued customer, who’s experience really does matter to them. I am in the process of hiring Boston Standard for some additional plumbing issues have been having. They offer great value for the price! This company’s work speaks for its self!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Boston Standard Company is a business I would avoid based on my experience. After initially giving a review, we mutually agreed to rectify the situation by me removing my negative experiences and pictures and BSC would reimburse for my out of pocket expenses. Guess what, I held my end of the deal and these crocks never reimbursed me for their poor work. I included my first review, updated review, and the pictures of the work they perform.1.

It was a big job doing some retro fitting into our older home but Kyle explained all our options so that we got the system that fit our needs best. Once the team arrived, we received end of day updates from Antoine on what work was completed and what we could expect the next day.

I started using this company last year for regular maintenance, which turned into $700+. My system has errored out everyday and has to be reset since last year where the technician came 2 or 3x’s but could not figure out the problem. He wrote up some possibilities and was supposed to be in touch and I never heard back, was dissatisfied so never followed up. Scheduled annual maintenance this year because I am now in contract and paying for the service only to have a new technician come out, do something but nothing and my system is now erroring out and will not reset. Hence, I am without heat and hot water! I called and was advised they were waiting to hear back on a part, the part that I found online and advised I could order and receive the next day. Rep stated everyone had left the office and an email would be sent. It’s Thursday, not sure if they can get someone back out once part is received. Based on appointment availability. The technician should have untouched what he touched and I would have dealt with resetting my system for another year or until I found a company that could diagnose and fix my issue.

I’ve been a customer with Boston Standard for the past three years but cancelled my membership today. Over the past two weeks I’ve experienced very poor service including inexperienced plumbers and bad workmanship. The company did send a more experienced plumber to fix the issue but only after I complained. Additionally, the price gouging is completely out of control. I needed a new hot water heater and received a quote for over $9k (including shutoff system). A different plumber is at my house doing the same work today for $2500. If you hire Boston Standard to do work, be prepared to be taken advantage of. I will not be back.

Yes, they were a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for and their service is top notch.

Boston Standard installed a system of mini-split ductless heat pumps in my old two family home. Each person in this process - the initial meeting and estimate, the application for a loan from Mass Save, the installation and follow up - was a helpful and knowledgeable professional. I had complete confidence in each member of the team and each did a great job, answering my many, many questions and taking the time needed to make sure everything was in order and that I understood it all.Communication with the office and technicians was always prompt and helpful and the office was always available to discuss my questions. Technicians arrived when scheduled and someone contacted me if there were any delays. I have no concerns about what the future will hold in terms of service if it is needed.I am very happy with my new system and am happy to recommend Boston Standard with confidence.

Summary: They charged me $760 for work that should’ve cost no more than $250.Long version: This was the first time I’ve had a boiler serviced so I had no idea what to expect. I’m originally from Florida. During my mass save inspection, the boiler didn’t turn on. Worried I may be without heat during the winter, I called Boston standard because of the good reviews I read online and they were close by.They charge $99 just to show up without doing any work. I had already taken the day off so I let them proceed.They cleaned my boiler and replaced the igniter. To me it sounded like a big job. They charged $294 for the cleaning and $367 to replace the igniter.Seemed like a lot but I didn’t know any better. After talking with my realtor and some of my colleagues, they were shocked that I paid so much. They often pay $180-$250 for a cleaning and replacing the igniter (a $10-$15 part) is often included in a yearly service.On top of it, I had to call in another HVAC contractor recommended to me to do some more work on the boiler. He pointed out to me all of the short comings of the job Boston Standard. The boiler was still filthy, the tubes weren’t even removed to be cleaned. They used a 24” igniter instead of 48” and installed in a lazy way above the tubes instead of under. They told me I had to replace a 4” damper when I have 5”.Do your research. These people over charge for minimal effort.

These guys are the worst. I called them because I live in Dorchester, so they were local and they had experience with the new, high-efficiency, wall-mounted gas combi-boilers. My unit was making a whining noise whenever it first fired up on cold mornings (which is most winter mornings). First guy came out and diagnosed the problem, which cost me $90 bucks. Said I would need a new fan and they would order it and follow up. They didn't. I had to chase them down WEEKS later. Then they charged over $300 to install new fan. Two weeks later, the noise was back. WHOOPS! Guess that $300 job was WRONG! Did they offer to reimburse? No! They just sent out a new guy who figured there was ice in the intake line. WRONG! But by then it was Spring, and with the unit warm we couldn't replicate the problem. So, this winter rolls around and I call them back. New guy comes out--it's never the same guy--and charged me $99 to tell me it's a different problem from the other two diagnoses. He wants to start with flushing the system, and that requires a kit. He'll price the kit and call me back. Guess what? No follow through, AGAIN. I called the manufacturer and found that, no surprise, he was wrong. An earlier model needed a kit with new O rings, not my model.Bottom line, I've paid this company over $500 to NOT fix the problem. This is customer service? My impression is that this is a company that likes the big jobs: renovations or new installs on bigger projects. But the average homeowner with a problem? Forget it! They really don't care about you. I would definitely tell the average homeowner to find someone else. They don't care, they don't follow through, and they do not diagnose properly. Does this sound like someone you want to hire? If there were a negative star, I'd pick it.

Do not give your credit card to the technician over the phone because your number will be written down to be entered later, which is unsecure. Also, ask for a detailed breakdown before agreeing to large repairs. When I asked last summer why two $20 air filters cost $200, they said they were going to leave 8 extra behind (weird). When I asked this month for a breakdown on a $900 quote to replace a heating unit motor, they said it was an odd request. Emailing quotes proactively would be a nice improvement.

Will i be charged another $159?Other companies say, we come and give you are quote for certain price, if it takes longer to estimate we charge you with certain static rate. Predictable price.

I was so thrilled with my mini-split/ducted system that I sent an email of thanks before the sun had even set on the final day of install. From Scott the project manager, to Will and Wes with the duct team, to Tim the electrician, to Frank and Jorge from Boston Standard.....they made this process painless. Admittedly, Boston Standard was not the lowest quote I received; but the creative planning for an unforgiving 200 year old home was what sold me on the team. They were kind, courteous, and clean. (My housekeeper will be thrilled with the lack of dust and debris!) They were conscientious to be sure my dog did not roam the neighborhood freely and gave him more head pats and bum scratches than he deserved. They welcomed my inquisitive nature during the 4-day install and walked me through setup, maintenance, and daily use of my system. Boston Standard will be my go-to for system maintenance moving forward. Thanks everyone! (Hope you get the grill Frank!)

Many thanks to the entire Boston Standard team. We’ve worked with Boston Standard for the past three years and have always been satisfied with their service. And, a couple of weeks ago, our ongoing relationship with Boston Standard paid off in a huge way.Our boiler died, so we had no hot water or heat – in the dead of winter. We have two children under two, so we were eager to figure out a solution as soon as possible.Within 48 hours, we had a new boiler and everything was back to normal.Our gratitude goes out to the entire Boston Standard team – Anthony Prosper, who came out to do annual maintenance on our boiler in early February and told us that it was on its last legs (so its demise wasn’t such a huge shock); Joe Blomquist, who came out and did his best to get things running again, but ultimately made the decision that it was beyond repair; Brian Sommers, who upon receiving a call from Joe, immediately drove out to our home on a Friday night, and provided some reasonable options for a quick replacement; and Bill Berberan, who spent an entire Saturday with Brian installing the new boiler.I would be remiss if I didn’t recognize the expert service that we’ve received over the years, especially that from Kai Wilkinson. It’s because of this service that we trusted Boston Standard to do a great job on such an important project.

John is a very competent engineer and is personally very friendly and helpful. The reason I have given him a 4-star rather than a 5-star review is that the one area he needs improvement with is tidiness and neatness. Without boring you with the details, there were four areas of the project that earned that lost star. To be fair, after pointing out my concerns to him he fixed all the problems except perhaps one. The remaining problem that could have been fixed more completely was the protection of the floor and the cleanup of the site. Even though I complained about this and he and his helper came back to take care of it, it was ultimately left to me to complete a proper cleaning and removal of fingerprints from the walls and pillars. Even now we are left with a tiled floor that has scratches all over it.When the initial contract was presented to us by one of the senior company staff, he told us that he would personally keep an eye on how the work was progressing and make sure the cleanup was done properly. Well, I never ever saw him or any other senior staff keeping an eye on anything. A big positive in going with Boston Standard is that they were able to offer more technically advanced replacement equipment than any of their competitors, and ultimately that is most important.

Our steam boiler cracked and we needed to replace it. Leo, the Boston Standard sales rep, was informed, personable, and not pushy. I went them partly because they offered 0% financing for 60 mos. which none of the other companies offered. They arrived on time, and Danny, the head of the job, was great. Here's the kicker: there was a miscommunication between the prep team and the demo team, and they accidentally removed the downstairs unit's boiler instead of ours. My 88-year-old mother lives there, and it's winter in Boston, so I was understandably concerned. They didn't bat an eye. They installed the boiler meant for our unit that day so she didn't lose heat, and they got a second boiler over that same day and installed it for us the next day. They only charged us for the one, so we got two new boilers for the price of one. I really appreciate how they just dealt with the problem, and didn't give me any hassle or any sort of runaround. Danny did a thorough and beautiful job installing the boilers, and left everything clean and looking great.

Normally I have had a good experience with this company but recently, they installed a new furnace. The mine team got the job done in a timely manner. After rewarding the job it was completed in a week. Usually unheard of. My issue is and I work with these folks a lot is, the furnace wasn’t performing or marching what the thermostat called for initially. When they came back to check on it, which they did right away, we thought we could trust them to lock up the residence when they were done and leave the site as the found it. When we checked after, the front door was wide open, both cats where in the hallway. One we weren’t happy the installation obviously wasn’t finished since it wasn’t working properly after they left and when they came back they left us with little trust in their staff. I know they can do better but since they insist we leave a review, I need to voice our experience. I hope next time, we will see better service. Maybe this is a sign of the times…

Although there were mishaps initially while installing the heating system, the staff recovered swiftly. Jeff, Jason, Zach Glasgow, and Antoine Caparotta reacted promptly to the issues and resolved them on a timely manner. So far, I am happy with the outcome.A few weeks later I had to replace an old water heater. Klajdi and Thomas came to install the new water heater for us. They were on time, very professional. I appreciated that before leaving Klajdi explained exactly what was done, showed me where the water valve was located as well as the automatic flood shut off valve that was installed. Excellent job!

He was patient, and worked with me to understand the pro's and con's between the different options.I find it extremely rare around here to find someone who helps me understand - usually it is the opposite - most others seem to try to confuse matters so that I have no other option than the one they want me to choose.I haven't chosen anyone for my project yet b/c it turned out to be trickier than I was ready for. However I do hope to ultimately use Boston Standard once I'm ready.

Our first follow up appointment for cleaning and maintinance was excellent too. Josh Cassidy was punctual, friendly and offered important advice about saving energy with our new system. His experience is substantial and he is truly enthusiastic about providing the best customer service. I interviewed two other companies before deciding on Boston Standard.

We had a water heater die on us last week. It was nearly impossible to find someone to come out and take a look, but Boston Standard made a quick appointment for us.Rich T. came out to assess the situation, and when it was determined that we needed to replace the system, he got us a very quick appointment and took time out of his own very busy schedule to get back and put a temporary hot water heater in. He went so far above and beyond what was required of him.Boston Standard sent a guy named Rick out to do the installation. He was prompt, hard-working, and flexible to my needs when I had to come and go from the job site. The new system doesn't just work great, it isn't a mess of piping and other hastily put together plumbing—which we appreciate, given that it was installed into an old building with chaotic existing plumbing. He answered my many questions very well, and had some very smart ideas for how we could increase air flow to the boiler room.We are very pleased with Boston Standard, and look forward to using them for all of our future plumbing needs.

Avoid their Home Protection Plan. They do NOT honor their Contract. Boston Standard promises 50% off All Service Charges - this is clearly stated in their Home Protection Plan Authorization contract. As a valued customer for over 8 years - I entered into this Plan in Feb-2021. Just had a new hot water heater installed - got billed Full service. Calls to the office, conversations with Customer Service = useless. They have no problem collecting the monthly Fee for the Plan - but do NOT honor Services included in the Plan. Disappointing.

The contact with the office was easy. The rep showed up within the stated scheduled time. He was pleasant and professional. He did his inspection, took pictures of the area where the old burner and hot water tank placed. In addition, he counted the radiators inside the house and measured their distances. He did his calculations to get the price. I was very impressed by all these! Trying to justify the high cost, $27,000 plus after MassSave discounts, he included items that other companies have as a package deal. He mentioned replacing the the zone relay kit, obtaining permits for the job, cleaning up, etc. Also, he was inflexible on reducing the cost onsite until he went to his office. At the same time, he asked me to commit to the $25,000 while he tried to get permission from whomever. These brought some bad memories from past contracts.

My only feedback is that their arrival windows for me have been off (today only by a half hour so not bad, but two weeks ago it was hours off due to an issue at another site), so to plan for extra time, but I think that's true of any plumbing and heating needs in the middle of a Boston winter-Tim is fantastic and I can't say enough good things about his help.

Being a monthly paying member I called to schedule drain cleaning, they were prompt in scheduling and sending someone. Except, it turns out they are not really into drain cleaning and they do not have the right equipment. So I ended up paying diagnostics fee and got nothing in return. Nothing wrong with the plumber that showed up, the company does not know what they can do and do not. But they will charge you money no matter what.

I have used Boston Standard at 2 properties for several years. Generally, they are more expensive but have gotten the job done.Recently I called them to check on a leak at my rental unit because I was out of town. They informed me it would $159 to come out, then there would provide an estimate and proceed from there.The technician arrived, spent 15 minutes to diagnose the leak:the kitchen faucet handle was loose. He tightened the hose and proceeded to charge an addition $374 Diagnostic Level 1 fee. I was not called with an estimate and was given no heads up that such a fee might be charged. I understand they need to make money, but over $500 to tighten a kitchen faucet is about what I have paid them for other actual repair services the involved parts and labor.After 3 phone calls to the company to discuss this fee, I have still not received any response. Very disappointed at both the expense and the lack of response and will look to take my business elsewhere in the future.

In desperation, I called 10 companies when our AC broke after 20 years of perfect service. 3 companies called back---only Standard said they could come out same day. Within 2 hour Leo was there as project manager to evaluate and discuss options. Leo is by far one of the most knowledgeable professional I have encountered in my 40+ years of home owning.Leo was very patient in explaining the technology of several options--repair or replace. He was not pushy but it was clear that it is not worth repairing so decided on replacement.I usually get 3 quotes for anything--but I was so impressed with Leo and his company that I decided to sign, pay and pray that the AC could be replaced since it is going on day 8 of 9-+ weather.My only complaint is that I paid July 2nd and the soonest date for repair is the 11th! That's over a week. I didn't change my mind because I trusted Leo and the promise of a great team. However, I do feel that a customer should not have to wait more than a day or two--call Per diem or pay overtime. If that were the case, I could give 5 stars, but I am sitting here drenched and praying that I get a call for a cancellation.I will write another review after installation.

I was NEVER informed through phone scheduling or the MANY texts I had received from this company.Incidentally the part that was needed had to be ordered and he was not sure when he would return to complete job.Fast forward, because I did not give half of price for job they refused to do the work.I proceeded to ask to speak to manager but was advised to send an e-mail to the general scheduling e-mail box.I did send Mr. Wood, CEO e-mail through the scheduling e-mail box who has not responded as of yet.I will not recommend this company because they do not stand behind their name or motto The company you can count on

In addition they later sent me a bill for a canceled appointment to look at my AC that they installed for $14000 that has never worked since the day they did it.. They should be offering to rectify the problem not charge me more. The receptionist was VERY condescending. This is not a good company.

Boston Standard was a lifesaver!I'd been in my new home for less than two months when the furnace gave out. Of all the service providers I called, they were the most responsive and sounded genuinely concerned about my problem. They actually rearranged their schedule to fit me in! When the first tech couldn't identify the problem with the equipment he had, Boston Standard sent a second one at no charge. When it was determined the furnace needed to be replaced, the technician showed me exactly what had gone wrong with the unit and provided a detailed recommendation for a new unit. They installed within three days (and lent me space heaters in the meantime, which were much appreciated in the February cold) and even provided assistance to get me an available energy rebate.The only hitch was a contracted electrician who was competent but not pleasant and needed to be urged to cap off a final connection, but that was a very minor point in the otherwise great service.

Quickly figured out the issues and got us set up for a fix. Boston standard was the only positive in my experience dealing with a broken water heater.After the first repair, the unit was still not working properly. Our technician, Nate, stayed another 90 minutes with technical support on the phone to double check everything. He did uncover another broken piece, briefed us on the repair needed, worked with Navien to get replacement parts (under warranty), and adjusted our estimate to reflect everything at the end of that visit.Boston Standard then sent over another crew to finalize the repair once they got the part. Our water heater is back up and running!All in all quality company and quality technicians. Helped educate us throughout the process.

Updated as of 5/13/2022Joseph, I'm not sure what your staff told you, but I can assure you the last thing that I did was raise my voice to Prescott. With regard to inappropriate emails I have no idea what you are referring to. I do have the original quote email from Daniel Moore from last May that shows the leak search was $865. This was confirmed when your technicians had to come back again in August and opened the sofit in my downstairs neighbors unit which is when your technician confirmed you don't specialize in leak tracing and that names of local companies would be provided. In addition, you can see your response to my review last September where you responded and falsely stated you were working with me to provide the details which were never received. You never contacted me, nor did anyone from your company following that post. As a reminder, I do have the quote from last week that shows the same leak search is now $2000.You certainly should hold your heads high for providing the lowest possible customer service experience in the NorthEast.Update as of 05/11/2022Unfortunately, customer service (experience as they are referring to it now) has hit yet another new low point. I never did receive the leak specialist recommendations I was promised last September (see below). When I followed up on it last week, Emily Bowen, Customer Experience Manager, took it upon herself (following a conversation with Daniel Moore whose title I can't recall) to cancel my service contract. Just as well. The estimate for tracing the leak went from $865 last year (after admitting this wasn't their area of expertise) to $2000 eight months later. When I asked if they had enhanced their expertise in this area, I was told they hadn't. And the estimate didn't include a potential fix, just searching for the leak whether it took 1 hour or 2 days. Other companies are telling me that $2000 would be a reasonable estimate to locate and fix; not just locate. Padding costs just a bit these days?Over the past two years I've had ridiculous customer service issues. Last week they showed up on the wrong day for a scheduled appointment. This past winter, the technician came to do the annual maintenance on my heating system. He serviced my neighbors. After I brought him downstairs, showed him which of the three units was mine (it was clearly labeled Unit 2) and he went ahead and serviced the system next to mine labeled Unit 3. If I hadn't gone downstairs to check on things about an hour into the appointment, I would have never known he serviced the wrong unit. Interestingly enough, when he did actually service my system it took him less than 20 minutes. Think a few steps may have been skipped? I'd say so. He swore he didn't as he'd checked all the boxes on the maintenance list. Hah, good one! One of the last times they serviced my HVAC unit they forgot to clear the drain. A standard step in performing annual maintenance. The system crashed four to five weeks later and they had the audacity to charge me to come back and fix the problem! I was stupid enough to pay it after several calls (at least three) to the service manager went unreturned. Should have left them then.So, we've now parted ways. If you are interested in hiring this company be sure to level set your expectations for customer service. It will be a low bar unlike anything you've ever experienced. Have a large bottle of Advil on hand. I'd love to give them a negative rating but unfortunately that's not an option so I'm left with being forced to give them a one star rating.

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!

Water fill valve and ball valve to the furnace that heats my driveway started leaking. Daniel tried to fix it despite not having the parts with him — it was an emergency call.

I only needed an annual tune-up for my apartment unit's gas boiler. They wouldn't provide me a quote or estimate on the phone, as they needed to come on site to see what it's about, even though i sent them pictures of the system and the model. I accepted they come on site and they slapped me with a >$600 annual maintenance plan. No other options offered such as a one time tune up. Lesson learned not to ever call anyone for a job without getting a firm estimate first.

Their scheduling system is fine. Technicians arrived as scheduled and were very professional. However, the diagnosis of my HVAC problem by three different technicians was wrong and I paid $1400 for very little value. First guy said my thermostat was broken (incorrect). He did top off refrigerant, but I have no idea whether it was necessary. Next guy identified a problem with the building boiler pump. Also not correct. In the end, the management company for my building sent an HVAC technician from another company who immediately identified the problem (air in a pipe) and fixed the problem quickly at no cost to me. I would not use this company again!

Klajdi arrived early. He explained what he would do to repair the corroded pipe. He asked us to ok the demolition needed to access all of the pipe which we did. He pointed out other places of corrosion on the pipe. Klajdi had to replace about 6' of pipe. The pipe was on the verge of breaking. I'm sure we would have had a flood if we had waited to call Boston Standard. Klajdi, was pleasant, knowledgeable, efficient. He carefully expained what he was doing finished quickly and cleaned up.Klajdi and Boston Standard solved a potential disaster with expertise.

Boston Standard removed oil tanks and oil furnace, and then rearranged the ducts to serve the second floor separately from the first floor. Then installed two natural gas furnaces in the basement, one for each floor, along with a heat pump in the basement to serve the first floor. So this was a difficult job, but everything looks good so far. They put in a lot of time and effort, which is much appreciated.

Absolutely the worst service. Technicians, at least 4, came and went. one said in low on refrigerant. One said i had a leak, another said my drain needed cleaning. Recharged with refrigerant, that cost me over $600 then agreed to do a leak search which they claimed is 4 hours of work and estimated the cost at $1800. Technician came for an hour, topped up my refrigerant because the recharge guy didn’t do it properly, cleaned my drains and told me no leak, all good. He also said i would only be charged $830 which was a deposit for the $1800 estimate, yet the office charged my card on file for the whole amount. I called and called to dispute it and no response. Terrible fraudulent and technicians who are very poorly trained. Except for the last one but to get him, in $2400 poorer.

My technician, Bill, was excellent. He was on time, professional, and immediately diagnosed the issue with our water heater. It was a faulty, recalled part that was covered by the manufacturer's (Ruud) warranty. Bill knew about a program from the supply house to cover all the costs associated with the repair. He picked up the part and fixed it within a couple hours. We had hot water again after less than 24 hours. Will definitely call Boston Standard for any future issues.

While performing annual maintenance on our heating system, I told Ben about a loud banging noise emerging from our condo unit when our thermostate called for heat. Ben conducted a thorough assessment of the entire system and identified failed items: zone valve, feed valve, circulator pump, and expansion tank. He replaced all and not only eliminated the noise but also made our system much more efficient. Throughout the time Ben worked here, he consistenly exercised patience talking in plain language when describing the problems and explaining the solutions. We members of the condominium assocation are very satisfied.

I am interviewing a few contractors for a mini split install. Josh came out for the walk through and estimate. He is very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. The quote itself, from their system, is a bit vague. No part numbers or sizing information, just a general top down overview of the parts and installation description and a price. As a retired engineer, this is not enough detail for me to sign a contract. You need to tell me what I'm buying, specifically. We'll see what the rest look like.

My partner and I, who own and live in a house with three units in Dorchester, had a heat pump/mini-split system installed by Boston Plumbing in August, in our very hot third floor apartment, where our older and semi-disabled tenant had recently retired and was suffering miserably from the heat, now that she was at home 24/7.We lucked into getting Boston Plumbing, choosing them because they were a business in our neighborhood, along with another company in the next town. We didn't know until later that Boston Plumbing was the most experienced, expert, and widely used company for heat pumps in Massachusetts, doing hundreds of installations a year. The other company that did an estimate visit for us would have been a disaster, because they didn't offer the full range of equipment options, and our old house and top apartment under the eaves had special problems that they would not have dealt with adequately, judging from the solution proposed by the representative the company sent out.Boston Plumbing's service was excellent, both on the phone with the office, and from the company representative and tradespeople who came out to do the work---prompt, friendly, thorough, answering all our questions and concerns, as well as knowledgeable, skilled, professional, efficient.Our tenant Vikki is thrilled, and we are jealous! Maybe we will get a heat pump in our own first floor apartment some year soon, before global warming gets too much worse for all of us!

Boston Standard handled a couple of simultaneous problems promptly and expertly. You're paying for scale and skillfulness--our technician solved a tricky drain clog with minimal invasion, and installed two water heaters (acquiring them and installing them both the same day, just a few days after we first contacted them). One small plumbing issue that remained was resolved the next morning, as soon as we reported it, and Boston Standard stood behind their work 100%.

We recently purchased an apartment where the boiler was installed by Boston Standard in 2018. On the Boiler it showed installation in November, 2018 with a 6-year warranty (in effect till 2024). The hot water temperature was not high enough. So we called Boston Standard for Service assuming the warranty was in effect. The service provided by the plumber, Bill Harrigan, was excellent. He arrived on time and quickly diagnosed that the problem was related to the mixing valve. He ran to the local supplier to get a new valve, replaced the old one, installed the replacement, and adjusted the temperature. The job was done timely and clean. He also answered my questions about the heating system and gave good advice on how to maintain and extend the life of the boiler. I would give 5 stars for the service being provided and highly recommend Bill Harrigan for plumbing related work. The reason for the four star is because of the vague terms of the warranty. After the service was performed, I was told that (1) Boston Standard's warranty is not transferrable to new owners; (2) Their standard warranty of workmanship is only for three years; the warranty written on the boiler (6 years from the date of installation) is from the manufacturer and covers parts only. So be mindful of the caveats of their warranty when you contact Boston Standard for service.

We will use them in the future if we should have a problem

My prior endorsement stands. I’ve since had the need to get toilet clogs cleared, and as usual got prompt effective service.I should mention also that I found out in the middle of the night that my upstairs neighbor had his water heater spring a leak. Boston standard was very expeditious in coming, getting the water turned off, and limiting the damage to my ceiling and walls.

James came to my place a week ago to assess the issues I am having with my mini-splits. He was clear about his diagnosis and laid out options for next steps in an organized and helpful way, allowing me to make decisions about how to proceed but also giving me the advice that I needed to make those decisions. Today he made the repairs, and I am good to go for the summer. Communication is always good, clear, descriptive, and he takes the time to be sure I understand what’s going on. Faucet repair is next.

The experience was good. The plumber was very friendly and respectful of our home. He took time to explain our options. I will be talking to another employee at noon so I hope it goes well.

First and foremost, I received a text with the picture of the technician who was on his way which in itself was great. Then once the two technicians came they assessed all the issues , had taken pictures of everything so that they could then review with me what needed to be done. They gave options. Some of the work they could do right then and there and the rest needed some parts so they will return. The were timely, neat, polite and very thorough. I can't say enough about how good they were in times like this when you can't get contractors to show up.

The entire team at Boston Standard was incredible, especially Jose and Joe. Jose was extremely professional and polite and his attention to detail was second to none, he takes extreme pride in his work. With our boiler failing and an impending blizzard and prolonged cold snap, Joe came over the morning of the blizzard to provide extra space heaters and keep the boiler running on its last legs until the new install could be done. Boston Standard truly cares about their clients and puts their clients needs ahead of their own. Thank you Joe and Jose.

Finally people that know what they are talking about.Boston Standard Company sent Jeff and Dan to debug and repair the electrical system of my boiler heating system; they look at the installation and diagnose immediately what was happening. The repair was quick and reasonable.I highly recommend them over other known repair companies.

My experience with Boston Standard is mixed.First, the good:1) the quality of the service I received from tech KENNY SANON was WONDERFUL. Kenny is obviously an expert at his trade and provided exceptional service: he devoted great efforts to service my equipment and to get it in tip-top condition. His service could not be any better.2) BOSTON STANDARD's service platform -- scheduling, confirming appointments, giving notice of the tech's arrival -- is all terrific. It is very easy to work with the company.Now, the bad:3) My experience with BOSTON STANDARD is that in every instance -- three times out of three visits -- the company attempted to up-sell me. The first aspect is Boston Standard's telling me I should immediately replace my equipment just because it is old and regardless of the fact that it is and has been actually working perfectly (notwithstanding lack of regular maintenance by a previous owner of my house). Yes, the equipment is 12 years old, and I take it as accurate that Boston Standard's experience is that my brand of equipment does tend to start to break down at around the age of my unit -- but until the unit starts to need repairs, it just seems aggressive to aggressively push for replacement. Whether you agree with me is a matter of personal choice.Second, though -- and this really annoys me -- Boston Standard (in my view) tried to skirt its contract obligation to provide annual preventive maintanence. First, they neglected to schedule the maintenance: it only happened because I contacted them toward the end of the service contract term. Second, when the tech ran out of time when performing my scheduled annual maintenance call, Boston Standard instructed that I should contract for an additional $500 service call to finish the work. My view of this is that when Boston Standard contracted with me to provide one service call per year then that means that they come and do what is appropriate. They do not have the option to cut the call short and ask for further payment to come and finish the job. Yes, my equipment wuite likely may not have been serviced in a long time -- so getting it cleaned up was a bigger task than perhaps they anticipated. But my view is this is Boston Standard's problem, and risk -- not mine. (By the way, as it turns out, the tech did do some additional work after proposing the separate service call to me, so in the end, the overall result of the maintenance call was OK.) So I know it is a matter of taste, and other customer's may appreciate Boston Standard's super-cautious approach and not mind being constantly hit with proposed costly service proposals. But that's not my preference. And after experiencing sell me additional services on EVERY service call, I feel it is appropriate to offer these details in my comments. It is not the way I would run the business if I were running it. That said, the service you get is great.

This is my go-to plumbing company. They always ensure that my service happens promptly. For big jobs they ensure I understand every item on the quotes and they always give more than one option. The service teams are always courteous and go the extra mile.I just got my central AC into replaced. The technicians Tim and Nate were amazing and professional and made sure I was taken care of on the hottest day of the year.I strongly recommend if you need hvac or plumbing work!

Had a positive experience with Boston Standard for routine maintenance on my heating system. Prescott, the technician, was excellent and took time to explain everything he was doing. My heating system is quite old so I was pleasantly surprised when there was only one part recommended to be replaced. Years ago, a different company had told me the entire system would need to be replaced immediately due to its age, so I’m glad I ignored them and have since switched to Boston Standard. My heating system has been working fine since, and hopefully will get a couple more years out of it after Prescott replaced the part the following day after the maintenance appointment. He was again very professional, timely, and extremely transparent with everything he was doing. Thanks, Prescott!

Came very quickly. In one visit, the technician wasn't able to service my unit but was very transparent and rescheduled the appointment in a few days. There were willing to fix my unit when other companies in the area weren't willing to look at it

I can not say enough good things about Boston Standard and Prescott Krause. My AC blew out about three weeks ago and after multiple calls to Panasonic tech support and other providers, I had nearly given up all hope that this could be fixed. Boston Standard to the rescue! Despite being fully booked for the next week, BSC managed to squeeze me in for an appointment the same day. Prescott is the kind of repair guy people dream of -- kind, considerate, professional and solutions-focused. Not only did he get my system in full working order but he also cleaned up my pantry (bonus!) and was pure joy to have at home during a very frustrating situation. If you are looking for courteous professionals who get the job done and enjoy serving you, look no further! And if you are fortunate enough to have Prescott show up at your doorstep, just know that your day just turned into something magical+++

Thomas was very thorough in not only investigating, fixing, and testing a minor leak stemming from the air handler and hot water heater, but also in the various checks and steps he performed as part of the scheduled maintenance of the systems. He also clearly explained the benefits of the different annual coverage plans where savings could be had by the customer.

I asked for an estimate to replace a tankless hot water heater. The representative came and gave an estimate for $4118! I had it done adequately by Gladiators Mechanical for $550. I should also explain that, as BSC saw, this is a replacement of one model for a similar model -- not a full installation. It was explained that this is a full-day job for two people...this means the charge-out rate is over $2000/day, or $250/hr which is about twice as much as my experience with Boston plumbers. Gladiators was here for 5-6 hours.

Greg came out for the original estimate and was excellent. He was very knowledgeable of the products and HVACin general. He came up with some ideas I hadnt even thought of which ended up being a huge help. He was helpful and available through the whole process.Jose and the rest of the tech crew were outstanding. He was able to figure out a way to run the hoses through my newly finished basement without so much as a screw showing, even though it probably made his work twice as hard. His work was meticulous. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his work and was more than happy to thoroughly go over every detail of the work and equipment with me.Highly recommended.

Excellent responsiveness and good quality communication during the proposal phase. On time project start and mostly according to plan installation. I was unable to be present at the end of the installation and found when I returned that the system was not working. This required a re-visit by an installation foreman to correct the situation and brief me on the system's use. A return visit by the electrician was also necessary to check out and confirm functionality of the backup system. Communication about all this at the end of the project could have been better.Follow up: service call when one ac unit failed. Very prompt response and the issue was resolved within a couple hours. Poor wiring connection does raise a question about the quality of the original work.

When we were looking to get mini-splits installed, we got quotes from four different companies. Leo and the team at Boston Standard were the only ones who pointed out specific challenges for our older home that the others ignored or didn't catch, and came up with solutions so that we could make the best use of our system.They were mindful about our future projects for our house when designing the layout and placements, and answered every question we had about choosing the right brands and maintenance/upkeep.The crew that came to do the actual installation were very punctual and made sure we understood where they were in the process and that we were informed about every part of the installation.My husband and I are very pleased with the whole process and would highly recommend using Boston Standard to any of our friends and family.

I had a great salesman, project manager, and professional technicians who gave me an above excellent HVAC steam boiler system and installation. In fact, I have to thank them for fitting us in a bind as we were without heat and with a newborn. However, the office cancelled our first appointment without communication, lost our payment check, and promised for a quote several times without follow up. If it wasn’t for these, i would be giving 5 stars if not 10 stars. They may be on the pricier side, but they do the job right and to code with professionals. Lastly, i give total props to the salesman. We were dead set on not picking Boston standard because the office cancelled our first appointment without notifying. However, the salesman impressed us, changed our minds on Boston standards hvac professionalism, and up-sale us by pointing out that our water heater was going out. I would like to thank him because he saved us from another headache and we really love the new equipment. Thank you Boston standard.

Excellent service so far! I met Kyle for an in home consultation on a new HVAC design for my home. He was prompt and very informative throughout the entire process. He showed attention to detail and was very polite and courteous. Not to pressure other project managers, but it is next level service when he put on shoe covers without me ever having to ask. That shows a major respect for your home and an A+ rating in my book.
