Furnace Repair in Gorham

Gorham straddles the line between Portland suburb and rural town. The village center has older 19th-century homes while newer subdivisions have spread out along Route 25 and Route 114 over the last twenty years. The University of Southern Maine has a campus here that anchors part of the town's identity. It's grown fast enough that you see brand-new construction next to farmhouses that have been heated by the same boiler for fifty years.

A broken furnace in Portland in January is not a small problem. Temperatures drop well below freezing here, and a lot of the housing stock in neighborhoods like Parkside and Woodfords Corner was built in the 1950s and 1960s with older heating systems that have already seen a lot of hard winters. Oil and gas furnaces in homes that old have parts that wear out, crack, or fail without much warning. When that happens, you need someone who can look at the actual equipment and tell you what's wrong.

We start with a real inspection — not a quote over the phone based on nothing. A technician looks at the heat exchanger, the burner, the igniter, the flue, and the controls before anything gets replaced, because swapping parts without diagnosing the problem is how homeowners end up paying twice.
