Excellent. The men came exactly at 8:30 as promised. It took two days to complete, which was what we had been told. Another company delivered and removed the old furnace. As they were going down the back porch stairs, one of the stairs broke (they are 21 yrs, old stairs). Cubby Oil gave the step a temporary fix for that day so that we could use the stairs. They came back the next day and replaced the entir stair for us. The men were all very polite. The owner comes each day to make sure that everything is going along as planned, which i found very impressive. The men were int the house, back and forth all day. They covered the stairs with clothes to make sure that none of the dirt and grime from the old furnace got on the carpeting. I never once heard any foul language coming from the cellar, as I sometimes do when people are doing work in the house for an extended period of time. I was very, very pleased with the results of the work. They also cleaned up the cellar perfectly. They came back the third day just to make sure everything was working properly.
Description of Work: We had a new furnace, burner and water heater put in.

Cubby diagnosed and replaced an incorrect burner component on my indirect vent buderus oil furnace after the original company who installed the nurner and boiler could not figure out why the burner unit kept melting its oil spraying nozzle thus shutting down my heat. I have had no problems since the Carlin burner and air intake replacement component was installed. (Note to consumers-if you do not have a chimney and vent out the side of your house you need an air intake pipe to bring in cool air to the furnace to displace the hot air going out the vent). The Cubby sales person was great - good explanations and no hard sell. He talked to me several times as I had questions. I did call the boiler manufacturer to verify the diagnosis. I wish I had called the manufacturer 2 years earlier, but the original installer kept coming back to fix it and life was too busy. The technicians were extremely nice and did not mind me watching over their shoulders and asking questions since I was nervous from prior experience. I also get my oil from them and the price is reasonable. If you have time to shop around you can find better, but I like being on the autofil program and not worry about refilling.

Unfortunately this customer had outstanding balances that we were having a very difficult time collecting. She was put on Delivery and Service Hold until she responded to our collection efforts. After months of letters and calls, we only heard from her when she had run out of oil after normal business hours. At that point we needed payment before providing service.

The Cubby crew is excellent. They scheduled us quickly, arrived on time, listened to what we have to say and performed the required maintenance. And, importantly, cleanly - they left no mess at all. In fact, they cleaned one up - George noted that our outside compressor unit should be cleaned of accumulated leaves and grit; he did so very quickly. He also tightened up nuts and bolts that could have resulted in excess noise for both us and our neighbors. We've been using Cubby for our home heating oil for a number of years and have always found them prompt, efficient and clean. The office crew is wonderful, as well. They are very responsive to any questions. Cubby's service and professionalism are far better than their competitors.
Description of Work: Regular maintenance on our heating and air conditioning systems. We also use Cubby for our home heating oil.

Cubby is great. They don't give rock-bottom oil prices, but by paying a little more for oil you get excellent service. I've called them a couple times in the middle of the night because of a problem with my old boiler, and they will come at any time if you have a legitimate issue. It's a nice local company and just overall a pleasure to deal with.
Description of Work: Cubby did maintenance and replaced the heat shield in my old Weil McClain boiler. It didn't look like the boiler had ever been cleaned or service by the previous owner, so the technician spent the good part of a day doing small fixes, touching up and cleaning, and replacing the heat shield to get the boiler in the best shape possible for the upcoming winter.

I was extremely happy company. They did excellent. They explained the process and made it very easy. This was my first time using oil and so I signed up with then. I ran out of oil on a Friday night and I called them first thing Monday morning and he was here by noon Monday. I looked around and found this was very affordable company. It was great customer service. Dan was especially helpful.

Charles J. Uglietto, president of Cubby, came out to our home from Somerville to assess our systems. Charlie returned a quote via email of $5,950.00 to install a new Williamson Model CHB-105 Oil Fired Furnace and new 275 gallon 12 gauge steel fuel oil storage tank..The work also included the installation of a new flue pipe from the furnace to the chimney with a new draft regulator.The quote included the removal of our outdated furnace and rusting oil storage tank. The quote included options for Charlie gave us options for asbestos removal ($1,095.00) and for a humidifier ($710.00). Charlie was professional and courteous. After inspecting our current system and basement location, he took the time to explain our options and describe the new heating system that his company sells. After comparing the quote to several others for the installation of a high efficiency natural gas system, we decided to convert to gas due to many of the financial incentives. It just made financial sense. When we emailed Charlie our response after the quote, Charlie sent us an email. This was his response: "Good luck. You will never get the service from the gas company that your local oil dealer provided. Hopefully you are not going with the high efficiency equipment ? it does require a lot of service."
Description of Work: We requested Cubby Oil give us a quote for replacing our existing oil furnace forced air heating system and fuel oil storage tank with a new, high efficiency oil fired furnace and new 275 gallon fuel oil storage tank.

I had a question about how my thermostats were set up, as we had just moved into this house. The rep from Cubby came by exactly when they said he would, and he explained in detail (and in easily understood terms) how my system worked. He was friendly and responsive to all of my questions. In addition, they deliver the oil on a regular basis and are very flexible in terms of payment.
Description of Work: I signed a contract with Cubby for oil delivery. They have been phenomenally responsive to any of my questions, and have been happy to explain my system to me! I would recommend them with no reservations whatsoever. They aren't cheap, but they are competitive, and their service is worth every single penny and more.

They have a price cap on their oil if you buy into their plan. If prices go up it is capped for what you pay. You pay a certain amount of money for 10 months and that covers your oil that year, you don't have sudden expenses one month. They are very responsive and can usually send someone over the same day. I think they are at least as good as anyone else, I don't really have any complaints.
Description of Work: Cubby Oil Co installed and maintain an oil heating system. They also installed an electric water heat. I have a contract with them.

We have used Cubby as a fuel oil and service company for the last few years. They have always come quickly when there has been a problem with the furnace. They are willing to talk with you on the phone to diagnose a problem, and their service is efficient and fast. We have signed up for their capped price and budget plan which is helpful in a fluxuating market.
Description of Work: Our furnace stopped working in late in the day. Cubby Oil came quickly, changed several parts and got it working again within an hour.. We had a service agreement ($190 for year), so the service call didn't cost anything.

They are an incredibly responsive local business. I spoke to the owner directly and he was the one that came to do the site inspection and give the estimate, and he was on site when they were doing the work. They are price competitive but it comes down to customer service and they are very good. I had my own plumber come in to look at their work and he believes they did a very good job. When you have someone independent from the company that is in the trade say that it is good, it must be.
Description of Work: Cubby Oil put in my boiler system and they will be my oil provider for the year.
