Oil Burner Repair Process

Straightforward Service, No Surprises

First, we diagnose what’s actually wrong. Not what might be wrong or what could be wrong—what is wrong. Our technicians test the ignition system, fuel delivery, airflow, and safety controls to pinpoint the real issue.

Next, we explain what we found in plain language. You’ll know exactly what needs fixing and why, plus what it’ll cost before any work begins.

Then we get to work with the right parts and tools. We don’t patch problems—we fix them correctly so you’re not dealing with the same issue next month. Most repairs are completed the same day, getting your heat back on and your life back to normal.

Annual cleaning and maintenance is the standard recommendation, typically done before heating season starts in the fall. However, if you notice higher fuel bills, soot around your burner, or unusual odors, you may need service sooner. Older oil burners or those that run heavily during harsh winters might benefit from twice-yearly service. Regular cleaning removes soot buildup that reduces efficiency and can cause safety issues. During service, we also check all safety controls, test the ignition system, and inspect the heat exchanger for cracks or damage that could create dangerous conditions.
Call for service immediately if your burner won’t start, keeps shutting off, or produces unusual sounds like loud banging or grinding. Strong fuel odors, visible soot around the unit, or yellow flames instead of blue also indicate problems that need professional attention. If your home isn’t reaching the temperature you set on the thermostat, or if your heating bills suddenly spike without explanation, your oil burner likely needs repair. Don’t ignore these warning signs—oil heating equipment can create safety hazards when malfunctioning, and small problems often become expensive failures if left unaddressed.
Age is the biggest factor. Oil burners over 15-20 years old often make more sense to replace, especially if they need frequent repairs. If repair costs approach 50% of replacement cost, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Consider efficiency too—newer oil burners can significantly reduce your fuel consumption compared to older models. We’ll give you honest guidance based on your specific situation. Sometimes a well-maintained older burner just needs a simple repair and will run for years. Other times, you’re throwing money at a system that’s reached the end of its useful life.
