Our NATE-certified technicians arrive prepared, diagnose accurately, and repair correctly the first time. Same-day appointments, 24/7 emergency response, honest pricing.

Excellent service; completed within 3 hours of my call.
Douglas Dower
Very professional and courteous!
Bruce Boyer
We had a great experience with Alecs Reyes from GEM Plumbing & Heating. Alecs was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain everything with my new furnace and AC system. Him and his team arrived on time, worked efficiently, and made sure everything was running perfectly before they left.

Itโ€™s not always easy to find technicians who are both skilled and genuinely care about their customers, but Alecs and his team definitely delivered. I highly recommend Alecs and GEM Plumbing & Heating to anyone who needs HVAC service. Excellent work and great customer service!

Kathleen Allen
Joseph and Dan were Knowledgeable and personable! They explained what was being done and went out of their way to complete the job in good time!! Well worth the money spent!
Anne Carty
So we had a major plumbing disaster that we discovered this morning. Another plumber we tried did not have availability all week. We called Gem and they came out within a few hours. They got right to the issue and diagnosed it. They stopped the leak, so that was a huge relief! Then they referred us to another person from their company who would follow up and take a look at the equipment to see if we need repairs or replacing.
That person is coming this afternoon.On top of that, we had damage to our walls and they recommended a second company that they work in tandem with who is coming tomorrow morning.
All this networking saved us a lot of time and frustration looking for people to solve these issues! Jim and Dan, who came today, were incredibly efficient, very good at communicating and also very pleasant to deal with. Plumbing issues are not fun, but they managed to make it easy and smooth and I am so grateful!
Also, hereโ€™s a follow up: Ricky also came and gave me the quote for the boiler and installation. He not only installs these types of equipment, but he also knows how to explain how everything works to the client. He did an excellent job telling me what went wrong and how to troubleshoot it in a way I could understand! He was extremely conscientious and made sure I followed his explanation carefully. Next the plumbers came, and Jacob did an incredible job with his assistant Steve. They were very respectful of my property. They got things done in a timely fashion. I now have heat which was a major factor in this whole incident. Another valve had to be installed on a different floor and a plumber took care of that. Then they sent an Electrician when it came time to install the thermostat. All of these contractors worked in tandem. Lastly, the people who came to clean up the house and make repairs on the walls were also in the loop and referred to by Gem. they also were very respectful and did a really good job in a time saving manner. Before leaving, the plumbers made sure that the new valve which was put in nor the old radiator were not causing any leaks so this wouldnโ€™t happen again in the future So am through the worst with my new boiler working this morning. I feel confident that my old house is in good hands now. Thank you Gem and Cleanworks!

FAQ

Do you provide same-day AC repair in Bristol?

Yes. GEM offers same-day air conditioning repair throughout Bristol, from the historic district along Hope Street to waterfront properties on Poppasquash Point.

Can you work on AC in Bristol’s historic homes?

Absolutely. Many Bristol properties date to the 18th and 19th centuries with retrofitted cooling systems. Our technicians understand preservation considerations and work within the constraints of historic construction.

What energy incentives are available to Bristol homeowners?

As a Rhode Island Energy partner, GEM helps Bristol residents access rebates for energy-efficient cooling equipment. We’ll explain available programs and help you maximize savings.

Why does my Bristol waterfront home stay humid?

Harbor proximity to Narragansett Bay creates higher ambient humidity than inland locations. If your home feels clammy despite running AC, you may have undersized equipment, low refrigerant, or condensate drainage problems. Our technicians diagnose the specific cause.

How often should Bristol homeowners schedule AC maintenance?

Annual maintenance is essential for Bristol homes. Coastal exposure accelerates equipment wear from salt air, and historic construction adds complexity that benefits from regular professional attention.
