Repair or Replace Heating Baseboards?

I have a 3 family in Bed-Stuy with heating baseboards above the floor that are no longer working properly. Who do you recommend that can replace or repair them quickly and at a reasonable price? Thanks a lot.

Master Plumber and Eman, you two are awesome at trying to balance out the snake oil salesmen who have come to call Brownstoner home. Thank you.

you need someone to look at the system…baseboards do no suddenly stop working..it is probably a case of air entrapment…for a free consultation contact me via my email in my profile, though I have very little free time at this point

Baseboard cannot not work unless they are badly damaged which would be noticeable. Its just a 3/4″ copper pipe with some aluminium fins. No moving parts. Problem will be in system -air etc

Runtal doesn’t make cast iron radiators of any kind. Replacing radiators rarely ever solves a heating problem.

I think you should repair it. I use a guy who is very experience and skill in the field and his price is very reasonable. Feel free to contact me for his information. coresolutionsnyc@gmail.com

I have three brand new Runtal radioators, still in their boxes, that I never used. They are cast iron and high quality. Hit me back if you’re interested.
