"repair would have cost more than it was worth for the age of the unit, so replaced with their recommended product. The cost of their product was much higher than what you can purchase at the local hardware stores but felt it was worth the investment if it lasts longer. The servicemen took longer than expected because they were waiting for water pressure to release, rather than opening all the faucets initially. Otherwise the product so far is working well."

"Provider contacted me in a timely manner, and was able to schedule service at a date and time that was acceptable to me. Unfortunately, their truck broke down the day before my appointment. They called and told me what was happening, to let me know the truck might not be repaired in time for them to keep my appointment. The next morning, the day of my appointment, they called again to let me know the truck wasn't fixed yet and that they would need to reschedule. I needed plumbing work done before a weekend party but they didn't have any openings available before then. After my phone conversation with them I left the house, and later called another plumber and scheduled the work I needed to have done. After I was gone Catenzaro & Sons called back again and left a message saying they would take another truck so they could keep my appointment, but I didn't receive that message until later in the day, after the scheduled time for my appointment. They did everything right given the situation, and I would not hesitate to contact them in the future for plumbing services."

"Technician stated hot water heater needed to be total replaced due to normal wear and tear. Hot water heater is initially the hot water heater installed in 1999 when home was built. Choice Home Warranty denied the claim after several years of being a loyal customer, making payments on- time every month. What is the use of having this warranty for times as this and when you need them, they denied the claim? Although the service was good, response time adequate, providing the services needed when your appliance break down and being denied repairs was disappointing and devastating, especially when coronavirus is rampant and you really need your hot water to wash clothes, dishes, bath, shower, and remain sanitary. I am so heart broken because I live on a fixed income and am disable, and can’t afford to purchase a hot water heater at this time. They determined that the water heater was not operating properly as a result of a lack of effective maintenance of the unit. What a crock!"

"We had such a great experience from the get-go. We received a call within minutes of submitting for a quote. Martha was delightful, and always responded to my (many) emails quickly - most of the time within twenty minutes or less. Harley was extremely thorough when giving us our in-person estimate, and even gave me some tips for a DIY project I was taking on myself. He also called when I had questions about how to best prep our butcher block counters and talked me through what to do. The installation went smoothly, everyone was friendly, professional, and on time, and the countertops look GORGEOUS. I was so impressed, not just with the work itself, but with the level of customer service. Ace really went above and beyond, and they will be out first call for our next project."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

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