Call (508) 217-7090 for emergency heating repair availability, or book a routine service visit online.
Before you book
Give us the town, fuel type, indoor temperature and any visible fault code. Tell us whether the property is occupied or plumbing may be exposed to freezing. We confirm response availability by phone; a web request is not an emergency dispatch.
Leave the building and call 911 from outside. If you smell gas, do not operate switches or appliances or try to shut off the gas. Follow emergency-responder instructions before arranging service.

Service information from Durfee Plumbing & Heating LLC · South Dennis, Massachusetts
No. A thermostat, electrical control, ignition component, fuel supply or airflow fault may be repairable. An onsite diagnosis identifies the cause; the technician explains repair options and an upfront price before work begins.
Confirm the thermostat is set to heat and note any displayed fault. Share the model and fuel type if known. Do not repeatedly reset a burner or operate equipment with a gas smell, smoke or a carbon monoxide alarm; leave the building and call 911 from outside in those situations.
Straight answers. Skilled work.
A thermostat setting, restricted airflow, ignition fault or equipment problem can produce similar symptoms. Durfee reviews how the furnace is operating, which rooms are affected and any recent repair history before recommending work. We explain the diagnosis and repair price, and discuss replacement when the condition of the equipment warrants it.
When a Cape Cod furnace stops heating, share the fuel type, thermostat reading, any displayed fault and whether air still reaches the rooms. For an unattended Barnstable County home, identify who can open the property and approve repairs. Existing duct condition and operating symptoms help define the diagnostic visit and any replacement discussion.
A no-heat or weak-heat complaint can involve the thermostat, filter and airflow, burner or ignition, safety controls, fuel supply, blower or another operating condition. Durfee checks the reported symptom and accessible system components before recommending a repair.
A gas furnace may fail to ignite, start and then shut down, or run its blower without delivering warm air. Diagnosis can include the thermostat, ignition and flame-sensing components, safety controls, airflow and fuel supply. Tell us the make, model, visible fault code and whether the blower runs. The technician explains the cause and proposed repair before approved work begins.
An oil furnace that will not start or stay running can have a burner, fuel-delivery, control or airflow problem. Share the tank level if known, any recent delivery and the last service date. Do not repeatedly reset a burner that locks out. Durfee diagnoses the equipment before quoting the repair; parts availability and the condition of the furnace affect completion timing.
For no heat repair in Dennis, Harwich or another Cape Cod town, call (508) 217-7090 with the property address, indoor temperature and whether anyone is staying in the home. Tell us if the furnace has stopped completely or is blowing cold air, and whether plumbing may be exposed to freezing. We take calls 24/7 and confirm the available response. For seasonal homes and rentals, we also confirm access and who can approve the work.
An isolated control or ignition repair may be practical when the rest of the furnace remains serviceable. Repeated failures, a major component problem, unsafe operation or a furnace that no longer suits the home may justify an onsite replacement comparison with load-based sizing.
Considering a new system? Explore furnace replacement and installation, heating maintenance or boiler service if your home uses hot-water or steam heat.
Seasonal & local proof
Tell us how the home is heated, which rooms are cold and whether anyone is staying there. Equipment access, seasonal occupancy and freeze exposure help us prepare for your furnace-service visit.

Service questions
Repair estimates require a site visit, and the visit is included in the diagnostic fee. After diagnosing the problem, Durfee presents upfront flat-rate pricing for the proposed work before you approve it. The diagnostic fee is credited toward approved work when the applicable minimums are met. The team explains the qualifying minimum and credit when arranging service.
Heating and cooling system-replacement quotes are prepared onsite. Durfee uses the latest heat-loss calculation technology to assess the building's heating requirements and accurately size replacement heating equipment. We also review the existing system, distribution, cooling needs and installation conditions as applicable before recommending equipment and presenting the scope and price.
If there is no sign of a hazard, check that the thermostat is set to Heat and the target temperature is above the room temperature. Note whether supply and return vents are obstructed and when the filter was last changed. Follow the equipment manual for homeowner maintenance. Do not remove service panels, bypass safety controls or repeatedly reset a furnace that fails to start.
Yes. Durfee provides gas furnace repair and oil furnace service. Tell us the fuel type, equipment brand, model and any visible fault code if known. The repair options and timing depend on the diagnosis, equipment condition and availability of suitable parts.
Not necessarily. Controls, ignition, airflow and other system conditions need to be checked before deciding. A repair may make sense when the fault is isolated and the rest of the equipment is serviceable. Compare replacement when failures recur, a major repair is needed or the furnace no longer suits the home. Ask what each option includes.
The repair cost depends on the diagnosed fault, equipment and required parts. We confirm the diagnostic fee when booking, then present an upfront flat-rate repair price onsite before you approve the work. The diagnostic fee is credited when the applicable minimums are met. A no-heat symptom alone does not determine the price or mean the furnace needs replacement.
Call (508) 217-7090 24/7 and tell us the indoor temperature, whether anyone is staying at the property and whether pipes may be at risk of freezing. We confirm the available response based on the location and schedule. A request does not guarantee same-day completion, especially when replacement parts are needed.
Yes. Our South Dennis team serves Dennis, Yarmouth, Harwich, Barnstable, Brewster and the other Cape Cod towns, with service also available in Plymouth and Wareham. Call with the property address to confirm scheduling. The town links on this page provide local heating-service information.
A furnace heats air and distributes it through ducts. A boiler heats water or produces steam for a heating distribution system. Durfee services both. If you are unsure which you have, describe the equipment and whether your rooms use air vents, baseboard or radiators.
Yes. Contact us with the address, symptoms, access arrangements and the person authorized to approve the work. Tell us if the house has lost heat or may be exposed to freezing conditions so we can discuss the urgency and available response.
