Need heating pro that works with 4\" pipe

Member Posts: 712
I need a steam pro to repipe a boiler with 3-inch and 4-inch pipe. Most of the contractors that I have called do not have the equipment to do this kind of work.
This is not a boiler install. It is repiping the present boiler correctly and eliminating all the victaulic fittings and the leaking valve on a main.
We are in Newton, MA. Work would be after the heating season.
Any suggestions?

Are you sure you do not want a new boiler while you are at it? Did you chack the profinder section? Norm Harvey do you work on 3 and 4 inch? I would but the 120 mile commute would take some scheduling to figure out. Are youi going to go threaded or welded?Cost is what you spend , value is what you get.

My logic is as follows: The boiler is a recent model and there is nothing more efficient. Piped properly, it will be a cinch to replace the boiler in the future, when the time comes.
I used "find a pro" and had no luck.
How do I reach Norm Harvey?

we work with it all the time
Drop me an email and we can discuss this one. I work in Newton almost everyday. Do you have anything against welding the pipe or is treading a must?

When you say you had no luck with find a pro does that mean that prices were too high?

I am fine with welding to the mains, but the header and the risers to the boiler should be threaded.
I work a mile away, so I am pretty flexible on arranging a look.
