"Faruk, is the best! So, I accidently fail against my water main and it started to leak. I called three plumbers and he called me right back. He was professional, honest, and explained everything that he did. In addition, placed a barrier in front to the water main so that it could not be accidently moved again. His prices were extremely reasonable. Before he got out the door I was already talking about future jobs. I have worked with a lot of contractors and he ranks at the very top!"

"My old hot water heater died, and a friend installed a new small 40 gal tank. But I never had hot water after that. I also had a leaking lead pipe. Patrick came and had to be a sleuth to try to determine the cause of the missing hot water. The tank was too small and not functioning, but the real problem was a crossed pipe somewhere in my 1890 house. He found the pipe location in the basement and put in a shut off valve, which gave most of the house hot water. He also put in a high quality 50 gallon tank, and repaired the leaking lead main. To completely fix the hot water, it will mean opening walls, so we left a small 1/2 bath sink and attic sink to be fixed at a later time (or not....).. This was all around Easter, but he put in long days to get it all done."

"Dan responded immediately to my repair request and was at my home within two hours. He quoted me a much more affordable price than the other 8 plumbers I had already contacted. Dan was very professional and informative. The job was done with an obvious high level of expertise, cleanly and in a very timely manner. I would recommend this company as your first choice in any plumbing situation. Very pleased with the work and the experience."

"We had a major sewer issue that needed immediate attention, and they went above and beyond. They quickly identified the problem, explained everything in detail, and got the repair done very quickly. The crew was professional, clean, and respectful of our property — they even made sure the area looked better than when they arrived. It’s rare to find honest, hard-working plumbers who truly care about their customers, but these guys delivered. Highly recommend them for any sewer or drain repair!"

"EXCELLENT! The pipe clogged on a SUNDAY AFTERNOON, of course. Water was leaking into our basement! I started looking for someone with 24 hour service, and no one could come out. Then I got a call from IL Sewer and Drain. Joe said he could be out in about an hour, it was already after 4:30 pm. He came out, and was able to unclog our pipe! But upon inspection, the pipe needed to be replaced. He was able to schedule it for the next morning! The work took a few hours, but was all finished and cleaned up! I would not hesitate to hire them again or give them an outstanding reference."

"Great! They were able to come out two days later and got everything done before noon. Water heater was replaced with drain pan, the utility room was vented, and the heat was turned on right away. They also guaranteed that if the venting was deemed insufficient by People's Gas, that they would meet PG's request (within reason, of course) at no extra charge."

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