"Excellent customer service. Really went above and beyond in all aspects of the job. Corrected multiple issues in my home including replacing kitchen faucet, installation of a new toilet, cleared mini split water leaking, and replaced shower valve. Also had a second person Andrew helping and he was excellent also. They showed up 7:30am on a Sunday came back at 7:30am on Tuesday after picking up all the parts I wanted. If you need a plumber hire this guy "

"Wicked Plumbing was very responsive in comparison to other plumbers I had called during a weekend emergency. Water was at the inch or so level in a three inch drip pan (with no overflow drain) for a leaking electric water heater. Nick was great to deal with and had the job completed in a short time period. Replace your water heater before this happens. It was a ten year old water heater (second floor condo). It could have been a disaster if someone wasn't around. Highly recommend!!"

"Bryce is an excellent plumber, very professional. He installed a booster pump to increase water pressure. He was quick and efficient and the area he worked in was left so clean you’d never know any work was done. He also fixed a few other areas that needed fixing in our newly purchased home. I would highly recommend Blanchard Plumbing. And the price was more than fair."

". This company has done a plethora of work for myself and my family. He has installed appliances such as dishwashers, washer and dryers, garbage disposals, faucets and sinks, a hot water heater, and a gas boiler. He is very trustworthy and knowledgeable about what he does and stands by his work. If there is an issue, he will get back to you and fix it in a timely manner. His pricing is reasonable and he does excellent work. I would recommend anyone to use him."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in New Bedford, 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.
