Customers say: Quality work

"I hired this company to replace a 75-gallon gas water heater, and the experience was excellent. Scope of work: Removal and disposal of existing unit Installation of new Rheem 75-gallon gas water heater Reconnection of gas, water, and venting The team was prompt, professional, and clearly experienced. They provided a clear explanation of the installation process, answered questions directly, and completed the work efficiently. I valued their use of text messaging to arrange the work, as it was most efficient and allowed me to share photos of the work area so they could plan the installation in advance. The installation was clean and well-executed, with attention to proper setup and safety considerations. Pricing was transparent and consistent with the scope of work. There were no surprises. Overall, this was a high-quality, professional installation. I would recommend them without hesitation."

"This was an emergency service call. Main water supply pipe from street to our house had failed. They responded to call within 45 minutes, evaluated issue, gave us price, Within another half hour equipment showed up. Staff was friendly professional and efficient. Start to finish from initial phone call to replaced main with running water re-established was just over 4 hours. Really impressive company with great customer service. Thank you!"

"The company was professional and responsive from the consultation to the office staff to the various people who worked on our project. I had tried to contact about 10 companies to get our heater/ on demand hot water heater replaced. Addario's was the only one who responded immediately and was able to fit us into their schedule to get the work done. We had contact with at least 8 staff people in various capacities, and all were professional, polite and knowledgeable. We also appreciated the senior discount for our project and assistance with the MassSave rebate process.. It has been difficult for us to find service people since we move to Gloucester. We were surprised that the company services this area and we would definitely use them again for plumbing or electrical services."

"I hired Marcin & his team at Precision Plumbing & HVAC for multiple projects. First to handle all plumbing in a gutted bathroom renovation, then to replace an old gas water heater and furnace with a new high efficiency combi boiler. I've since recommended them to friends and family and would absolutely do so again."

"John is hands down the best plumber I?ve dealt with. I had a frozen pipe and after calling multiple plumbers who couldn?t identify the issue or offered zero real help, John came through immediately. He showed up the same day I called, quickly found the problem, and had everything fixed within 30 minutes. He was knowledgeable, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. After a stressful situation and a lot of wasted time with other companies, John made the whole process easy and painless. I wouldn?t hesitate to call him again and will be recommending him to everyone I know."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Chelsea, MA

Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out, unusual noises from the tank, or complete heating failure. You might also detect a rotten egg smell, indicating a potential gas leak, or notice water that never reaches the proper temperature. If your water heater is over eight years old and displaying these symptoms, the gas valve is a likely culprit. Professional inspection is recommended, especially if gas odors are present.

Water heater gas valves are not universally interchangeable. Each valve must match your specific water heater's make, model, and specifications. Important compatibility factors include gas type (natural gas vs. propane), BTU rating, connection types, and physical dimensions. Using an incorrect valve can result in poor performance, premature failure, or dangerous gas leaks. Always consult your water heater's documentation or a professional plumber to identify the appropriate replacement valve for your unit.
