Radiator service — Manhattan
Apartment radiator and steam heat service in Manhattan
Why Gotham Home Services
Apartment radiator service in Manhattan covers cold radiators, overheating rooms, failed air vents, seized or leaking valves, pipe knocking and radiator replacement inside co-op, condo and pre-war units. Gotham Home Services Inc. holds New York City home improvement contractor license 2132513-DCWP and takes Manhattan calls at (516) 348-5145. Pre-war apartments commonly have original valves and vents, radiators set under windows with restricted access and enclosures that trap heat, so each radiator is inspected individually. Pricing is quote on request after inspection. Work is limited to unit-level components; building boiler rooms are not part of our scope.

What we handle
Radiator work in Manhattan
In Manhattan pre-war buildings the heat arrives from the building, but what happens inside the apartment is usually where the complaint starts: a vent that no longer closes, an enclosure blocking output, a valve that cannot be shut, or a radiator that was never re-pitched after the floors were redone.
We inspect each radiator and its valve and vent, explain which findings are unit-level and which belong to the building, and put the recommendation in writing before any parts are ordered.
Work is limited to unit-level radiator and heating components inside the apartment or home; building boiler rooms and central plant equipment are not part of our scope.

Common questions
Before you book
Why is my pre-war apartment too hot even with the radiator off?
Often the valve no longer seats or the vent stays open. Both are unit-level parts we test and can replace.
Do radiator enclosures reduce heat?
They can, depending on the design and clearances. We assess whether the enclosure or the radiator itself is limiting output.
Can you replace a radiator in a co-op?
Subject to board approval. We document the scope, equipment and connections so you can submit for approval first.
Will you service the building's steam plant?
No. We do not work on boiler rooms or central plant. Our work is the radiator, valve and vent inside your apartment.
