19067, Morrisville, Pennsylvania - August 4, 2015

Boiler Repair

$99.00 to $1,000.00 per hour (plus parts)
It all depends on the problem with the boiler. The basic service charge is $99. That covers the 1st hour of labor. Any parts that are defective are extra. It can range from a thermocouple to a circulator pump. Some of the circuit boards are very expensive as well. So that is my price range and the reasoning behind it. Also the gas that is consumed, the insurance on the truck, the advertising. Insurance for an accident in home, and also workman compensation, incase my mechanic gets injured. Need to make a profit to pay for all of these things and to put a dollar in my own pocket. Thanks for the question.
