"Our water heater broke in the middle of the night and we woke up to 3 inches of water in the basement. We contacted Rob early, and he said he'd be out with a new water heater later that day. He showed up mid-afternoon, took out the old heater, put in the new one, and was done in no time. Under the circumstances, it was a great relief to have Rob handle this so quickly. Rob is guy who does what he says he's going to do. He's professional, responsive, reliable. If you're looking for a plumber, this is an A+ guy."

"What a great guy! The furnace and the water heater went out at the same time. I was freezing! It was all sorted out the same day. Angel was able to remove my old water heater with a new one. I plan on hiring him again, Thanks, youâ re an Angel!"

"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."

"Replaced a tank water heater, the door was too narrow so first pitched removing framing with no guarantee that it’d be replaced correctly. I suggested using a smaller sized unit based on a quote from another plumber which is the route we went. They also covered the overage for the additional cost of the smaller sized unit which was nice but if I wasn’t aware of the option I’m not sure what I would have done. They also only sent one person initially so I helped bring the old unit down and the new one up in between trying to work. Also the breaker to the hot water heater was never flipped back so I’m waiting to see how the unit performs now."

"Water heater ruptured just before I had to leave for work and only a week after moving in. Calling around for pricing to make sure we didn't bust our budget I spoke to Mandy and had told her I needed to get back to her after a couple more calls. Bill overheard our conversation and called me back personally to discuss. He also texted me offering to answer any questions I had. Price was right in our budget and lower than anyone else. Bill came out that day himself to install the new water heater. He was super nice and extremely helpful in answering questions about different options for the new install to make sure we got the set up that would work best for us. I elected to have him service our steam boiler while he was there so we would be ready for the winter. He took the time to walk me through proper care and operation of the system as we had never had steam heat before. Very happy with his work and will not hesitate to contact again for any plumbing work we might need done in the future."

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