Boiler Installation in La Crosse, Wisconsin
If your old boiler is leaking, it's time for a new one. If it's struggling to heat your home, don't wait until winter hits hard.
Warning Signs
When La Crosse Homes Need a New Boiler
Boilers in older La Crosse homes, especially around Cass Street and Grandad Bluff, often date back decades. These units start short cycling, leaking, or making loud banging noises as parts wear out. Rust colored water or rooms that never get warm are common signs too. Winters here drop to -10°F or colder, and a failing boiler can leave you without heat at the worst time. We've seen folks wait too long on a cracked heat exchanger. They end up with a cold house and a burst pipe. Installing a new, properly sized boiler protects your home and lowers your gas bill. Correct sizing and venting matter a lot for safety and efficiency.[1]

Common Issues
Old Boiler Leaking
A leaking boiler usually means a cracked tank or failed seal. Once it starts leaking, it won't stop.
No Heat at All
Pilot light issues or electrical failures can shut a boiler down completely. We'll check if repair or replacement makes sense.
Rising Gas Bills
Older boilers lose efficiency over time. A new high-efficiency unit can cut your heating costs.
Strange Noises
Banging or kettling sounds mean mineral buildup or a failing component inside the boiler.
New Construction or Remodel
Adding a boiler system to a new build or remodel needs correct sizing from the start.
Commercial Boiler Upgrade
Businesses need reliable heat with minimal downtime. We plan installs around your schedule.

Initial contact was clear, professional, and informative. The technician, (Jeremiah) was very helpful and took the time to explain what he was doing, and why, which was appreciated. He was also friendly and left the work area clean and neat. He definitely made this a 5 star review! Would highly recommend.

Recently moved into a new home and called this team for some (minor) plumbing fixes. Several of these issues were more intensive than expected, and I'd like to thank them for not only being willing to fix several things in one day, but for their excellent service the entire time! The one who helped me out explained everything and answered all my questions, and I'll be calling them in the future for additional fixes!

This was the second satisfactory job that was done by Advanced Plumbing for me. The first was a large job replacing my sewer system under the basement floor! A shocking discovery for me but handled professionally and seamlessly by their crew. I was very pleased and confident with the work done. They were very patient and willing to explain the details I wanted.
My second experience was not as complicated as I thought it may have been. I thought I had a leaking bathroom pipe. I was pleased to be told it was just a leaking hose into my refrigerator ice machine. Problem corrected within an hour!
I love these guys! I don't really want to see them again but I know the job will be done correctly if I need them.

We had a great experience with the plumbers who worked in our home, Jack and Richie. They were professional, respectful, and really listened to what we wanted. They took the time to make sure everything was done right, kept the work area clean, and were a pleasure to have in our home. We had them replace two shower valves and fixtures, and two drains. Their attention to detail and excellent customer service were greatly appreciated. We would recommend this company and especially appreciate the outstanding work done by Jack and Richie!
