Burns Mechanical Corp. is a Waltham heating and air-conditioning contractor that says it provides residential and commercial service and installation. The company describes itself as family-owned and operated, incorporated in 2000 by Robert Burns, with Robert and Chris Burns identified as operators; BBB lists eight employees and says Robert Burns is president. The customer history is limited to three Google reviews from June 2025 through January 2026, while Google displays a 4-star average from four ratings. In January 2026, a customer said Burns arrived in just over an hour for a furnace shutdown caused by snow in the intake and restored heat. A June 2025 customer instead described repeated follow-ups, a week-long wait, and a requested installation that the owner ultimately declined. The company says it handles heating, air conditioning, indoor air quality, system design and installation, repairs, and maintenance, and Procore lists HVAC and plumbing. A Massachusetts registry lists an active HVAC license; BBB separately carries the business's claim that it is fully licensed and insured. Before booking, confirm response times, whether the requested installation is within scope, and the written estimate and insurance details. An undated web mention associates a same-named company with an OSHA inspection and citations at a Uniondale, New York facility; confirm whether that record belongs to this business. Burns is positioned for Waltham-area HVAC work and related plumbing needs.

Woke up this morning freezing, called Burns Mechanical and they came in just over an hour! The good news it was just the furnace doing its job. Snow has gotten into the intake and froze. To prevent carbon backup it shuts down. Thank you for heat and great work!
Good job!
After 3 phone calls I got a hold of this buisness. The owner was friendly and helpful. He said it would be a week before he came out and asked me to send him an email with images of what I wanted installed. I waited 3 days then followed up with another email, then a phone call the next day. He then decided that he dosn't want to install something that he did not provide. What a waste of a week of my time!
