"By February 2012, less than a year after installation, I begin to have problems. So I called Mt Everest, and they come and fix things here and there, and I don't think much of it because other than the inconvenience of occasionally being too hot, it's not costing me too much money. =) Here are some of the receipts I could find... Mt. Everest - 2/16/12 - $194.12 Mt. Everest - 2/17/12 - $0.00 Mt. Everest - 2/18/12 - $0.00 --new company name-- Tiger - 1/22/13 - $210.00 (Became Club Member) Tiger - 8/16/13 - $0.00 Tiger - 5/16/14 - $0.00 (Waived/Warranty) Fast forward to October 2015, a little over four years after installation, I have a coolant leak somewhere that can't seem to get fixed, and Tiger has to keep recharging my "closed" system... the only difference is now I have to start paying for this service. (I guess Freon is expensive.) I start to panic because my family is undergoing financial hardships, and whatever money I once had went toward the air conditioner I purchased four years earlier. Thankfully, Tiger works with me on this, and I am grateful. However, they warn me that I will need to have the evaporator coils (???) changed out. EEEK! At this point, I am already $10,000 (plus) into this system, it is only four years old, and it is having major problems. Again, I have no money left, so I'm talking to lawyers, because from what I can understand from Tiger, it's a manufacturing defect, and now I have to pay Tiger tons of money (that I don't have) to fix something that shouldn't even be broken yet. (Warrenty still covered parts, but not labor.) Thankfully, Tiger comes through for me and I refrain from possibly taking legal action against manufacturers. On October 23rd, 2015, the coil gets swapped out. The technician thinks there might still be a leak somewhere, but nothing really comes of it. The parts are covered under warranty, Tiger is kind enough to waive the fee for labor. * * * * * The above gives Tiger five stars. I seriously had no money to pay them. I would have had to get a loan from somewhere. ...but... It is now July 18th, 2016, not even a year has passed since the installation of a new coil, and it is 74* in my house... I have the thermostat set at 70*. The temp coming out of the vents is around 68* - according to my meat thermostat. I have called Tiger, and we have an appointment for tomorrow. I fear that Tiger is going to tell me that I will need a recharged -- or new coils -- and I will have to pay them for service with money I still don't have. I'm praying everything still falls under a warranty. Pray for me, you all. I'll come update after my appointment and let you all know how it went. <3"

"The boiler was fairly new, but had never been serviced. The workman came on Saturday in response to an emergency call, and fixed the boiler as well as performed basic maintenance which badly needed to be done. He didn't bleed the radiators, so I will be contacting the company to make arrangements to have that techs do this as well. I would consider relying on Vitt's for routine maintenance of our heating system, as well as replacement of our water heater."

"This was the first company I selected after becoming familiar with HomeAdvisor. Terry, the plumber, contacted me very soon after my submission and came to look at our problem the next day. He gave us a very affordable quote and came back the next day to do the repair. This is another HomeAdvisor business that I would hire again in the future and recommend to my family and friends."

"Froggy's called me immediately after I submitted my request on Angi. We discussed the problem I was having, and they gave me several ideas to try to get my A/C unit running properly before actually coming to take a look. I ended up taking their suggestions - cleaning the unit and blowing out the drain line - which resolved the issue. I appreciate and respect a company willing to provide a few troubleshooting/DIY tips before being eager to charge a service fee. Will definitely call in the event I need help in the future."

"I started my search for a quality company and product by getting several estimates and by talking with my mother who had had both of her bathrooms done in the past year. She had used Mid-Am Re-Bath, and was completely satisfied with the service and quality. So while they were not the cheapest bid, I went with them anyway, expecting the same quality and service my mother had gotten. The sales rep. explained to me that it would take 1 day to do the install, provided there were not unexpected complications. I asked what "1 day" meant and he said ~6-8 hours which seemed reasonable to me. The installer and a second party plumber showed up on time at 9am, but the installer had not cut out the wall so the plumber could not do his work. The plumber left to go to another job, stating he would be back in a little while to do this job. Billy, the installer, started working to get the wall cut out for the plumber so it would be available when he got back. The problem began at about 4:30pm (now ~7.5 hrs. into the install) when the plumber finally showed up to install the new faucet. He seemed more interested in chatting than doing his work. At 7:00pm (now 10 hrs. into the install) the plumber was done and Billy could finally finish his part of the install. I was then informed by the chatty plumber that an inspector would be by the next day "sometime between 8 and 12" to inspect the plumbing. That is when I had finally had enough and informed him that I would be home the next day until 9:30am and if the inspector came by before then he could do his inspection, if not he was out of luck. Billy finally finshed the install and was gone ~9:30pm, for a total installation time of ~12.5 hrs. on a job that had no unexpected complications. After the frustration of what I consider an excessive installation time, I negelected to notice that the towel rack was not installed in the shower, and upon a closer look at the paperwork, the towel rack was not even put on the work order. The next day I insisted on speaking to a manager and was informed that no one was available but someone would call me the following Tuesday (after the Labor Day holiday). Tuesday no one called, so Wednesday morning I called and spoke to a manager who was completely unaware of any issues with this installation. I explained in detail what I considered the "issues" to be, she quickly told me that 12-14 hrs. is not considered unreasonable for an istallation, that she had no control over the time at which the inspection was to be done and agreed that the sales people needed to be upfront about the time commitment required from the customer. Billy, the installer was great and just as frustrated as I was with the delays. I really don't want to sound unreasonable but a 12 hr. installation was a bit of shock to me when I was expecting an 8 hr. installation. So, the inspection and installation of the towel rack is supposed to happen today (between 8-12) and 1 week (not "1 day") later the job will finally be complete. I love the look of my new bathroom and am pleased with the quality of the product and the installation so far, just not pleased about the way it came about. I have another full bath and a hald bath that I would like to have remodeled but I think I will pick another comepany for these jobs."

"I hired American Appliance Repair Services to repair a GE Profile electric clothes dryer. I've used GE to repair other Profile appliances with mixed results and a high price. American Appliance Repair scheduled service two days after initial contact, technicians arrived on time, problem quickly diagnosed and after a quick trip to a warehouse to obtain the defective part the dryer was repaired. The charge was reasonable. I am completely satisfied with the service they provided."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Fairview Heights, IL

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.
