A residential boiler and water heater, out in four hours

Denver metro · single-family home · 2026

The smallest job on this page and the most common one on the Front Range. A homeowner needed the old boiler and water heater gone before the new system went in. Two of us, one morning.

The job

What we walked into

Old residential equipment lives in the corner nobody designed for removal: a boiler wedged behind pipe, a water heater against the wall, a path out through the house. The homeowner's installer was scheduled right behind us.

The approach

How it went

  • Homeowner's plumber shut off and capped gas and water ahead of us.
  • Floor protection down through the path out; boiler sectioned in place so nothing heavy had to be carried whole.
  • Water heater drained and walked out on a hand truck; boiler pieces and piping loaded into the truck.
  • Corner swept and photographed for the installer.

The result

Handed back

Both units out in about four hours with the corner clean for the new install. The scrap value was already in the price.

“Thanks so much! Appreciate the good work you guys, and last minute! You are awesome!”
