Call 651-738-0580Boiler Repair Problems We Diagnose
No heat, intermittent firing, pressure loss, leaks, cold zones, unusual sounds, and control faults can have different causes. We test the boiler, pumps, expansion tank, zone components, controls, venting, and related system conditions that apply before recommending a repair.
A symptom does not prove a specific failed part or water-quality problem. The repair scope follows the diagnosis, and the price is provided in writing before work begins.
When Boiler Replacement Enters the Conversation
Replacement is evaluated when the diagnosed repair, equipment condition, parts availability, recurring service history, or changing heating needs make it worth comparing. We size a proposed boiler to the home rather than automatically matching the existing unit.
Efficiency claims apply to the exact selected model and installation. We compare the equipment, venting, controls, distribution system, complete installed scope, maintenance needs, and applicable warranty without promising a universal savings or payback period.
Heating Season in the East Metro
Before heating season, service can identify visible leaks, pressure problems, venting concerns, worn components, and control issues before the boiler is under sustained demand. The exact inspection and maintenance steps follow the equipment, installation, system condition, and manufacturer instructions.
Who does the work: Jason Wallraff, master plumber, operations manager, and licensed boiler technician, lives in Hudson and leads boiler work across the St. Croix Valley and the East Metro. Thatcher Anderson, who lives in River Falls, handles hydronic, in-floor radiant, radiator, and side-arm boiler work. Customers can request either by name when scheduling. Boiler and hydronic work is plumbing work at A.J. Alberts; we do not service forced-air furnaces or air conditioning, and we say so up front rather than send a truck that cannot help.

"AJ Alberts is hands-down the best plumbing service in Woodbury. This was my third or fourth time working with them, and they continue to earn my complete trust. They offer highly competitive, job-based flat pricing (not hourly) and never pressure you into upsells...."
"Ryan was professional and very diligent in checking that the shower faucet was working properly after installation. He did not bolt for the door the second he finished the job. He worked clean wearing shoe protection and cleaning up everything after he finished. The price was reasonable. 1s time I have used AJ Alberts will definitely call them in the future."
"New service - AJ Alberts installed two toilets and a kitchen faucet. Kevin Lundell was wonderful to work with. His recommendations were spot on and he did a timely job of installation. Highly recommend...."
"My house is getting to be old and so I have found it necessary to hire AJ Alberts Plumbing five times in the past five years for various repairs. Their employees have always impressed me with their politeness, knowledge, good advice, and diligence, and the quality of their work has consistently been excellent. I am happy to report that my experience with master plumber Kevin these past couple of days regarding a laundry tub pipe leak has also been very favorable."
