— Local Service for Holbrook Homes —
Holbrook includes older properties near the historic center, a large supply of postwar Capes, ranches and Colonials, and newer homes and condominiums across town. Equipment and piping installed during different renovations can create comfort, drainage and hot-water problems that require an individual diagnosis.
Proto Home Service Plumbing & HVAC brings 40 years of industry experience to plumbing, furnaces, oil burners, boilers, air conditioning, heat pumps and water heaters. Our licensed and insured team explains the findings, discusses repair and replacement choices and provides pricing before approved work begins.
Contact us today at (617) 842-9104 for same-day service, or book online.
— Complete Comfort Service —
Holbrook homes rely on many combinations of equipment, including gas furnaces with central air, oil-fired heating, boilers connected to radiators or baseboards, heat pumps and ductless mini-splits. Older floor plans, additions and finished spaces can also produce comfort differences from room to room.
We service the equipment and examine the connected parts that influence performance, including accessible ductwork, thermostats, zoning, airflow and hydronic circulation. This helps distinguish an equipment fault from a distribution problem elsewhere in the system.

— Leaks, Sump Pumps, Drains & Fixtures —
Hidden water leaks and sump-pump searches already bring Holbrook residents to Proto Home Service. Staining, damp odors, unexplained water use, recurring clogs or a pump that does not cycle correctly should be traced before damage spreads to finished surfaces or stored belongings.

— Gas & Oil Heating —
Holbrook’s established housing includes both gas- and oil-fired systems alongside newer heat-pump installations. When a furnace will not start, cycles repeatedly, produces unusual odors or sounds, or leaves part of the home cold, we check the equipment and the conditions affecting its operation.
Proto Home Service repairs and replaces gas furnaces and is certified to work on oil burners under Massachusetts Oil Burner Technician license BU-319987. That allows the page to address oil-heated homes directly rather than treating every heating system as gas-fired.
• Furnace Repair & Maintenance
• Furnace Installation & Replacement
For a no-heat situation or another urgent winter breakdown, use our 24/7 emergency heating service. When replacement is being considered, we review the home's heating load, distribution system and existing fuel setup before discussing equipment.

— Hydronic Home Heating —
Boilers serve many older Massachusetts homes, but the boiler is only one part of a hydronic system. Circulators, valves, zone controls, pressure, air in the piping and individual radiators or baseboards can all affect whether heat reaches the intended rooms.
• Boiler Repair & Maintenance
• Boiler Installation & Replacement
We investigate cold zones, leaks, changing pressure, noisy operation and boiler failures. If new equipment is appropriate, we account for the connected zones and distribution system so the replacement plan addresses the entire heating arrangement.
— Cooling for Every Floor —
Older homes were not always designed around modern ductwork. Central air may struggle when ducts are restricted or modified, while upper floors, additions and converted spaces may need a different approach. Ductless equipment can serve selected areas when extending existing ducts is impractical.
• Air Conditioning Repair
• Air Conditioning Maintenance
• Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement
Proto Home Service repairs and maintains existing cooling systems and installs new central or ductless equipment where suitable. If the system fails during dangerous heat, our 24/7 emergency cooling service is available.

— Flexible Heating & Cooling —
Heat pumps can provide heating and cooling through ducted systems or individual ductless zones. Depending on the property, they may serve the whole home, improve comfort in selected rooms, or operate alongside an existing boiler or furnace.
• Heat Pump Repair, Maintenance & Installation
We consider insulation, floor plan, electrical capacity, indoor and outdoor equipment placement, and the current heating system before recommending a design. Proto Home Service participates in the Mass Save Heat Pump Installer Network; homeowners should confirm current incentives, participating-contractor rules and eligibility through Mass Save’s official heat-pump information.
— Hot Water for Daily Life —
A leaking tank, inconsistent temperature, slow recovery or complete loss of hot water can affect the entire household. Proto Home Service works on tank, tankless and indirect systems and bases replacement options on household demand, available space, fuel source, venting and existing connections.
• Water Heater Repair
• Water Heater Maintenance
• Water Heater Installation & Replacement
• Tankless Water Heater Services
Our Navien Service Specialist status supports applicable Navien tankless work along with the other water-heating systems we service. For a major leak or urgent loss of hot water, visit our 24/7 emergency water-heater service page.

— Holbrook Water & Property Information —
Holbrook’s public supply includes purchased MWRA water and local sources. The Town’s annual water report and public notices are the appropriate source for systemwide information; Proto Home Service evaluates pipes, fixtures, valves, water heaters and applicable connections on the property.
Check current Town of Holbrook notices.
The Town and MWRA have investigated groundwater infiltration in portions of Holbrook’s sewer system, including work around North and South Franklin Streets. Public investigation does not establish the cause of a backup in a particular home. Recurring symptoms may require drain cleaning, inspection and coordination with the Town when evidence points beyond the property.
Homes with lower levels or known drainage concerns should test sump-pump operation before heavy rain, keep the accessible discharge route clear and respond to unusual cycling. A working pump reduces one source of risk but cannot guarantee that a basement will never flood.

— TESTIMONIALS —
Peri is awesome. He is extremely responsive and did an excellent job on our bathroom renovation. I recommend going with him and I will be using him for all our plumbing needs in the future.
The service was great. I called Peri from Proto Home Sevice Plumbing for a clogged kitchen sink. After inspecting some pipes connectors/drainage, he realized that some connections were wrong. He took the time to explain everything in detail that needed to be changed. I followed his recommendations and I'm very happy with the results. Peri is very professional with many years of experience. Highly recommend!!
Peri was amazing! He was super informative and gave me an estimate right off the bat. The service was fast and the price was very reasonable. I will definitely be using Proto home service again!
Clean, professional work. They were quick to respond and took the time to explain the new tank’s operation. We had an oil hot water tank replaced (which most plumbers cant/wont do). Great work. Thank you.
I recently had Peri from Proto Home Service Plumbing handle all the plumbing work for my bathroom renovation, and I couldn't be more impressed! He installed a brand new walk-in shower, infinity drain, toilet, and faucet with absolute precision and care. What stood out most was the excellent quality of his work combined with his professional attitude and very reasonable rates. Throughout the entire project, Peri demonstrated exceptional skill and attention to detail...
Our water heater gave out unexpectedly. Peri and his team were there in less than 18 hours to replace it. He is very responsive and he will always be my first call when anything plumbing or heating needs attention.
These guys are AMAZING. If you’re looking for someone who is both knowledgeable and super-responsive, these are your guys. They have dealt with some super janky plumbing for me in a couple of old buildings and they did a phenomenal job. Trustworthy and reasonably priced. Hard combination to beat.
Proud partners and certified specialists with leading industry organizations.
