Norfolk mixes some of the oldest housing stock in Hampton Roads with one of its busiest restaurant scenes. We handle both.

Restaurants and commercial kitchens

Kitchens along Granby Street, in Ghent on Colley Avenue and 21st Street, and in the NEON District are often in older buildings with tight mechanical spaces and aging drain lines. We service walk-ins and reach-ins, cooking equipment, water heaters and booster heaters, and the rooftop units above the dining room.

Homes

Older Norfolk homes still run hot water boilers, and many have ductwork squeezed into small attics or crawlspaces. In low-lying areas near the water, we can raise outdoor units above flood level. We repair heat pumps, furnaces, boilers and water heaters across the city.

HVAC in Norfolk: older homes, tight spaces

Houses built before central air. Much of Ghent, Colonial Place, Larchmont and Park Place was built before central air existed. Ductwork was added later, often undersized, and many homes still heat with boilers. We work with what the house has, and we recommend ductless systems where adding ducts doesn't make sense.

Flooding and tides. Parts of Larchmont, Edgewater, Ocean View and the neighborhoods along the Lafayette River see tidal flooding. Outdoor units on raised stands, and electrical disconnects above flood level, protect the equipment.

Military households. Families stationed at Naval Station Norfolk move on short notice. We give straight answers on repair-or-replace for homeowners who may sell or rent out the house.

What we do in Norfolk

Norfolk questions

Do you work on boilers in older Norfolk homes?

Yes. Ghent, Colonial Place, Larchmont and other older neighborhoods still have hot water boilers, and we service them.

Can you raise my outdoor unit above flood level?

Yes. In flood-prone parts of Norfolk we can set outdoor units on raised stands or platforms.

Can you add central air to an older Norfolk home with a boiler?

Yes. Ductless mini-splits are usually the cleanest option. High-velocity small-duct systems are another choice for some homes. We'll look at the house and give you both options.
