"I’ve used Mike twice now, last time for a sump pump replacement and water heater flush. Did great work and takes the time to explain what is going on. I don’t feel like he’s trying to upsell services to me like some other plumbers. Highly recommend."

"J&S provided great service during the installation of my new water heater. The process for hiring was transparent and communicative. I was quoted a very competitive price and they included all the details necessary. They were on-time for the day-off appointment and were able to remove my old heater and install the new one pretty quickly. Also, I'm on the 4th floor with no elevator. So, it was also a physical challenge to complete this job. Great service, would definitely recommend."

"Patrick, the owner made the service call to my house in about 1/2 hour. I was alone, babysitting for my two grandchildren and very worried. I explained my problem, he told me what to look for (a water shut off valve) and asked if I could turn the water off. I told him I would try. I was frantic because with the babies, then not finding any shut off valve, water coming up from the floor, and clearing way for what I thought would be a wall tear down - Patrick and his "manager" (?) arrived. (Mind you, my family also came to help, but did not locate the shut off valve). The water pipe happened to run under my bedroom floor! Needless to say, WITHIN MINUTES the rushing water stopped. I still have water for daily household use as the problem was a broken pipe to the exterior spigot.  Patrick was soaked, yet took the time to explain to me why exactly this had happened. He encouraged me to wait until the Spring when the weather is warmer to make any changes and repairs. Patrick is professional, knowledgeable, and quite a gentleman, (despite being waterlogged) and I felt that he gave me all options for this future repair.

"Phil worked quickly and appeared to be extremely competent, never hesitating between steps of the job. He was very personable (a good salesman too) and answered any and all questions. Water heater also flushed as part of the job. I would definitely use Phil again for any plumbing job. The price was a bit more than I had hoped but my satisfaction level balanced out that concern in the end."

"The water heater started to leak much worse on Sunday. He called on Sunday and was able to come early Monday morning. He took me to Menards to pick out the water heater and brought it home in his truck. He installed it quickly and removed theold one."

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