WR Heating Cooling & Electrical

The thing customers of WR Heating Cooling & Electrical write about most is the job Wilmer Rodriguez talked them out of. In a June 2018 review a homeowner told he needed a new unit by everyone else said Wilmer checked the eleven-year-old system, told him it had about three more years in it, then explained the Mass Save rebate he could claim later and looked at the heating unit for free. Another June 2018 customer described the same pattern in a hot attic: problem found and fixed in forty minutes, and the outdoor unit pronounced old but solid, 'a pleasant contrast to the previous guy who tried to convince us to change it'. In a July 2020 review a customer who had been quoted around $8,000 for a new central air system by another firm said Wilmer fixed the existing one in a few hours. The company works out of 64 Victoria Street in Revere and says it has twelve years of experience and that se habla espanol. It covers both trades in its name — electrical wiring and panel upgrades, electrical work for home additions and remodels, and heat pump installation and replacement alongside A/C and heating service. Both Angi and HomeAdvisor, which carry the same listing, show 4.9 from 27 ratings, 93% of them five stars. The biggest job in the record is recent: in June 2025 a customer paid $12,800 to have an old oil boiler replaced with a gas one, and wrote that Wilmer gave the best quote of several, walked him through the setup before he committed, finished in the three days promised, and that the crew arrived on time and cleaned up. Earlier accounts are smaller but consistent — a capacitor and switch stack replaced from parts carried on the truck in about an hour in September 2015, a raccoon-chewed outdoor wire found and rewired in an August 2023 review, a follow-up call a few days after a July 2016 repair to check all was well. Two practical things to know. The listing states the company does not offer emergency service and keeps weekday hours of 8am to 5pm, closed weekends, so a Sunday breakdown is not what it is set up for. And the trade licence it shows, number 23780 expiring 07/31/2028, is self-reported on the directory rather than confirmed against the state registry — worth checking yourself before electrical or gas work. For a Revere-area homeowner who wants an honest read on whether an aging system needs repairing or replacing, this is a strong call. Ask for the quote in writing, and confirm the licence covers the specific work.
