"I was very happy with the quick response I got. Within a few minutes of submitting a request for service, Jeff called. He was professional and accommodating. Our water heater broke and needed to be fixed before going away for the weekend. He was at my house the next morning and replaced the water heater in a few hours. J. Griffin employees are nice, respectful and explained what they did. I would highly recommend J. Griffin."

"Rob had recently replaced my kitchen and bathroom faucets and I called him to see if he could now replace my gas water heater. I was happily surprised when he said he’d be out within a couple of days and I was REALLY pleased with his estimate. For both jobs, Rob showed up when he said would and was both fast and efficient. He’s a great guy - dependable, reasonable, professional and focused on providing good service to his customers. Rob is my “go to” plumber from now on!"

"Fantastic. Jeff is a pro. Installation went as described in both locations. He came back Immediately when I had a water gauge issue for my water meter ( installed 7 years ago) and replaced it on the spot. Jeff is professional, punctual, cleans up, old furnace removal and does great work. I’m very happy with my 2 new efficient heaters and hot water heaters! My heating costs are down substantially! I’m glad we chose Jeff."

"I needed it fixed immediately, as the heat was dropping rapidly in the house. I called my usual company that I've used for years, and was told that no one could service my furnace until "maybe tomorrow". Not good enough. I'm hearty but not going without heat for two days. I called Peterman and they sent a rep, Jason, out in a couple of hours. Jason was great, and happy to explain what was going on. Fried circuit board. He had to go get one, but he replaced it, did a cleaning, replaced our filter with a better one, and was on his way. Jason was great, knew his business, and I will call again. After he left, I later saw the receipt, which was emailed to me. It was quite vague; I was charged for "1 unit" of this and that. No prices. I want to know exactly what I am being charged for each item, not just a total. It is also flummoxing that it cost an additional $20 to pay a year's contract up front than to pay monthly. This is mind-boggling. No one is allowed to auto-debit my checking account. I pay in full. Other than these small issues unrelated to the repair itself, all went well."

"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."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Ipswich, 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.
