Plumbing, Heating & Cooling in Bedford, MA
If your boiler dies in January, your water heater starts leaking, or the house won’t cool down in July, you want someone who can actually get to Bedford. That’s us. Pespisa Company has been doing plumbing, heating, and cooling in this part of Middlesex County since 1956. We’re still family-owned, still answering our own phone, and still about twenty minutes from our shop in North Chelmsford.
Trusted Plumbing Heating & Cooling Services for Bedford Homeowners
We do the whole range of home comfort work in Bedford: plumbing repairs, heating repair and maintenance, AC repair and maintenance, water heaters, boilers, furnaces, heat pumps, and the occasional full system swap. Before we start any of it, we tell you what we think the problem is and what it’ll take to fix it. No surprises on the invoice.
Bedford houses are a mixed bag, and that shows up in the work. A lot of the capes and colonials went up in the decades after the war and are running their second or third heating system now. The older homes closer to Bedford Common and the Old Bedford center have plumbing that predates a lot of the people living in them. And a fair number of houses around here still heat with oil, so oil-to-gas conversions and heat-pump upgrades are two of the most common projects we take on in town. When the temperature drops and a boiler that was holding together in October finally gives out, that’s when the no-heat calls come in. We’d rather hear about it then than in February.
For no heat, a burst pipe, or no hot water, treat it like the emergency it is and call 617-538-5377.
Every Bedford house is a little different
One home still has a steam boiler that was holding together in October and gave out in January. The next one needs a leaking water heater swapped before the basement floods. Another is ready for a heat pump and a Mass Save® rebate. We do all of that.
Repairs, tune-ups, replacements, and full installs. If it moves air, water, or heat in the house, we do it, and we’ll say so if we don’t.

We do the bigger work too. If your water pressure is off, your sump pump is failing, or you’re ready to move to a tankless water heater, we’ll size it for how your household actually uses water, not just what fits in the closet.

Cooling Services in Bedford
A lot of Bedford houses were built before central air was the norm, so adding cooling is usually a project, not a swap. That’s where ductless mini-splits and modern heat pumps come in: room-by-room cooling without tearing open walls to run ducts everywhere.
If you already have AC and it’s blowing warm air, short-cycling, or making a noise it didn’t make last summer, we can repair it or tell you straight whether it’s worth fixing. We also do central air installs and seasonal maintenance.

A Whole-Home Heat Pump for a Bedford House That Didn’t Have Easy Answers
A Bedford home had a 100-year-old steam boiler in the front, forced hot water in the addition, and window AC in the summer. The family wanted whole-home heating and cooling, lower bills, and the Mass Save® rebate they’d already been pre-qualified for. Most contractors would have hung a wall unit in every bedroom, or walked away.
We designed a hybrid Mitsubishi system around the house as it actually was: ductless heads in the open living spaces, a hidden attic-mounted ducted unit for the smaller front bedrooms, two outdoor units matched to each side of the home, and the original boilers left in place as backup. The window units came out for good.
Project highlights
- $4,682 Mass Save® rebate on the install
- Whole-home cooling for the first time in this house. No more window units
- Hybrid ducted + ductless Mitsubishi system, ~4.5 tons across two outdoor units
- Existing steam boiler and hot-water heat kept as backup, not ripped out
