Customers say: Quality work

"We woke up this morning (a Saturday) to a steady leak from our water heater. We turned to a couple of different resources for help and plumber references, including here on Yelp. Petros responded almost instantly to our request for a quote, despite it being a weekend. He was incredibly informative and helped us weigh our options in standard versus tankless water heaters. In the end, we went with another standard water heater and Petros had everything swapped out by 2:30 this afternoon. Not only did he let us know everything he was doing, but he was just a nice guy. He finished the appointment by playing with our dog! Thanks, Petros, for your quick response and professionalism. We will definitely be adding you to our list of go-to contractors!"

"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."

"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."

"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."

"I have had Spencer Home Services work on my house before and they were recently here again on an unrelated issue. Rich came out and solved the problem like any good plumber would. The difference is Rich’s attitude, respectful of our needs and time was outstanding. As a homeowner it’s great to know you can trust your repairman to do a good job."

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