"J&O Plumbing is professional and they provide quality work. Not only did install a tankless hot water heater for us, they also got rid of some older plumbing that needed replacing, installed our new garbage disposal, connected our new sink & dishwasher as well overhauled our bathroom plumbing and installed new fixtures! They were on time, courteous and the quality of work was excellent and they are very fair with pricing."

"My "On Demand' hot water heater was malfunctioning and I needed to have it repaired immediately as I was flying out to Missouri on 2/27 due to a death in the family. Fellowship Plumbing answered the call and set aside/rearranged some service calls to come on the 26th. He came within the scheduled time, descaled the unit. after further inspection, it was determined that some filters within the unit were clogged w/ silt. They were cleaned and the system is up and running beautifully. The compassion given me under the circumstances was greatly appreciated. The workmanship and service were excellent; I have retained Fellowship Plumbing as my "go to" agent and highly recommend them to anyone needing Excellent, Reasonably priced service."

Customers say: True professional

"Bill was extremely responsive and a true professional. I could tell he had a wealth of knowledge. I had a short window of time to replace an indirect water heater. He was on it. Set the appt. to measure and the date to complete the job was exactly what I needed to keep guest plans for the upcoming weekend. I will be sure to keep his # handy!!! Great work, great job, and a nice guy. Hit the jackpot with this one!"

"Had trouble with my Waist Pump that pumps any water we use into the tank in the basement. When it fills up the pump starts up and pumps it into the Sewer. The Pump or Check Valve failed and a mess in the basement. Bill came Friday night but to late to do anything and get parts. He came back Saturday and put in a new Pump check Valve and everything is up and running the way it should be. Next will be our Hot Water Heated and I will call then again for sure."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Newport, RI

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.
