"Saved by Ehrhardt Brothers Quality Plumbing (a.k.a ColumbiaPlumber)! (West of Baltimore) Our gas water-heater failed! It’s 30° outside! (Mar 2026). It was leaking, so we shut off the gas, the pilot, and the water inlet, to lessen damage if it burst. Ehrhardt offered a price based on our descriptions and photos, of course with caveats for anything unexpected. A water-heater costs a pretty-penny, but less than we expected. A fair price. They came the next morning, and had the water heater replaced in 90min. Impressive. But the manufacturer sent a unit with a bad pilot! Ehrhardt returned immediately and in 30min, they figured it out. They had a replacement part over-nighted. The next morning, in 30min, done. Hot water. AAAAAHHH :-) The problem was the manufacturer’s fault, and Ehrhardt handled it flawlessly: Excellent communication by Ehrhardt, priority attention to our problem, no excuses, just fast resolution. Great service staff. Perfect! "

"Called Modern Plumbing Systems (based on a NextDoor recommendation) to install a new hot water heater and sump pump and couldnâ t be more pleased. Bryan, the owner, was the consummate professional â immediately returned my phone call, checked on all available options for my specific system and needs, thoroughly explained each option to me, provided an immediate quote based on photos I sent, and then did a great job on the install of both the hot water heater and the sump pump. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the market for a new hot water heater, or any other plumbing needs for that matter. Super satisfied and would absolutely hire him again!!"

"Well let me start by saying I called several water heater companies to inquire about an estimate for my hot water heater that was not getting real hot. He was the ONLY repair person to come out that gave me the feeling he was trying to fix my hot water heater and not trying to sale me a new hot water. I never had a hot water heater water heater issue before therefore i was not familar with pontential problems. Everbody tried to get me to buy something called elements without actually trying to fix my heater. Wallace plumbing was able to identify some pressure thing or something with the thermostat that he fixed and saved me pontially thousands of dollars that other companies tried to sales pitch me. I then called Wallace plumbing because my toliet kept running and Wallace came out and fixed my toliet in minutes and his prices are very affordable. I will be using Wallace plumbing for any future needs and I recommend them!"

"I discovered the broken toilet water supply line at 3 am, flooding our first-floor bathroom, and had to shut off the main water cutoff valve to the house to stop the flood. I went online, subscribed to Angie's List, searched for local plumbers, and read reviews of local repairs done recently. Heil Plumbing had great reviews, so I gave them a call at 6:10 am, hoping they would be able to schedule a repair soon. They checked their day's schedule, called me back in 15 minutes, and scheduled a plumber to arrive at my house between 9 and 10 am. Jose arrived even earlier, at 8:45. He assessed the problem, removed the broken line, and replaced it with a new supply line he had in his truck. The problem was repaired and we had our water back on in less than 15 minutes. It was a basic, straightforward repair, but I was impressed with the how quickly Heil Plumbing was able to schedule and complete the repair, and with Jose's professional attitude. The cost of $135 may seem like a lot for a simple job, but we needed it done quickly, and the price was in line with, or even a little less expensive than the cost of similar repairs by other companies I read about on Angie's List. Jose suggested some improvements for the future, like replacing the plastic pipe the previous owners installed in the 1990s, which we already knew about and plan to do someday. I am very pleased with Heil Plumbing's service, I will call them again if we have any problems in the future, and I'll certainly call them for an estimate when we are ready to do those plumbing improvements. <br />"

"Within 24 hours of my posting the need to replace my water heater the work was done - very efficient and easy!"

"Hired Pohlman to evaluate two natural gas tank water heaters in our home, one of which was unoperational. They suggested combi-boiler for our home in lieu of two tank water heaters. They did a great job and we are very pleased. Customer service is top notch, and I highly recommend Pohlman Plumbing."

"Very Good! Arrived same day to assess project needs. Returned next day to install new water heater. Very satisfied with work ethics and clean-up. Would definitely hire again!"

"Brandon identified and isolated the water leak immediately. His expertise and speed were unmatched."

"Fritz B. was my sales rep and he clearly knew what he was doing, including making a few minor recommendations that were in my financial interest. Easy to set up the scope of work. The grew was great, came in and did a great job, took about 6 hours. They even rerouted the exhaust flue for my hot water heater even though they did not replace the heater because the install guy Chris said "they did this dumb". Overall a great experience and I would recommend."

"Tes set up a same day appointment and replaced my sink disposer. Price was fair and very professional work. I will go no where else."
