"I'm a first time home owner and have only lived in apartments my whole life so living in a home was certainly going to be a learning curve. From hearing friends and families horror stories about dealing with various vendors from electrical to plumbing to contracting throughout the years, I felt a sense of stress of knowing I'd eventually have to find providers I could trust and who weren't looking to take advantage of my naivety in the process. I heard this could take several tries before finding the right people who you could rely on. Thankfully, Intact was my first try and they will be the ONLY plumbing vendor I ever use moving forward. There were a few minor things that came up in our inspection revolved around plumbing which is what started me on my quest of finding a reputable vendor. Things like replacing washer hoses, gas dryer pipes, and a leaky faucet. We also noticed that one of the toilet bowls had a very weak flush and that the upstairs kitchen sink would back up after about 45 seconds of continuous use. After submitting my quote request to Home Advisor, Shai (I assume is the owner) reached out within 15 minutes to get a sense of what was going on and then scheduled a in-home walk through to provide a proper estimate the very next morning (I commute to and from NYC daily so there was no other choice but for me to do it before catching my train and he was more than accommodating in this request). Shai arrived on time and even pointed out things that were not in working order like a broken gas valve and showed me things that weren't up to code. He even made some recommendations that I could on my own like getting water alarm detectors that are a small worthwhile investment in the event that an area ever started to have a leak. By that evening I had a very detailed and fairly priced quote for my review. I immediately approved and we scheduled to start the work a couple of days later. That Monday his team showed up and did their thing. They were able to fix everything except the kitchen sink drainage which turned into what would become a nightmare. What should have been a quick snaking through the pipes turned out to be a much larger problem. They spent an entire day trying to diagnose and find out exactly what was going on with the blockage. There were two theories 1) either there was a severe blockage that they were concerned could get pushed to the main causing a backup throughout the WHOLE house or 2) the pipe was broken. That's when they broke the news to me that they would have to break our foundation and try to find the pipe and where the issue was coming from. I immediately had an emotional breakdown and Shai and Johnathan calmed me down and told me not to worry and also educated me that Insurance could potentially even help offset the financial expenditure (he was right). The next day they returned. Did one last ditch effort to try to go through the opposite side of the pipe with no luck and then broke ground. Within a couple of hours they found the pipe and the culprit of what was causing the issue. Solidified black sludge that spanned several feet. They showed us how hard this stuff was by jamming metal rods into the pipe to try to chip away at it. At this point I was just thankful they found the actual problem and knew how to fix it. The very next day they replaced about 10 feet of the pipe with PVC, had their team lay down sand and concrete to repair our foundation and voila, we had free flowing draining water! They also took pictures and videos throughout the ENTIRE process which was helpful for me in submitting my claim to insurance. They truly took every measure and went the extra mile for EVERYTHING all the while being beyond helpful in educating me how we can deal with this and make it easy. Can not recommend these guys enough. They are true EXPERTS!"

"We have a very complicated hot water heating system with 5 valves. We called WaterMac because 2 of our zones were not working correctly as recommended by Home Advisor. Igor and his assistant came to analyze very shortly after. The specialists took care making sure that they knew what the problem was. They came back on the next business day and fixed the problem. They were efficient, effective and professional."

"We had a main water line leak between two houses on our property. We received 4 estimates to replace the pipe. All recommended replacing vs trying to repair the pipe. Advanceds’ estimate wasn't the lowest, there was one lower estimate but we elected to go with them because their technicians (Jason and Taz) were so helpful and so pleasant. We felt we could trust them to do a good job as quoted and do it on time. This job was difficult as the main line lies underground beneath asphalt driveway and lawn. The asphalt and the lawn are separated by a low wooden retaining wall. The plan was to dig a trench straight through from house to house and replace the existing pipe with a new pipe. We would later have to repave the trench which would be roughly 50’ long. In addition, we would probably have to rebuild the older retaining wall. The day of the project the owner of the company, Sam, studied the situation and came up with a different plan. He and his team were able to push the pipe through the sleeve which held the broken pipe!! This prevented any need to dig!! No digging!! No breaking up the asphalt, no need to repave, no need to reseed the lawn, no need to fix the retaining wall!! Done. In a matter of hours. Can you imagine our relief? Our actual invoice was for less than half of what was originally quoted. Sam also saved us a lot of money in future repaving and possibly repairing the short retaining wall costs. Sam is not only very knowledgable but is a man with integrity. My feeling throughout this experience with Advanced is that we were all on the same team. Props as well to Isha who works in the office. Isha patiently answered all of our questions and was helpful all around. All scheduling was quick and punctual and we were kept in the loop through it all. A great team who take pride in their work! We highly recommend Advanced Professional."

"They did a fantastic job, however I believe the labor cost was a little steep. And they should share the maintenance on the water heater with the customer."

"Complete install of new house heating and hot water system. Kept me up to date on project. Work was done very well. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a plumber. I had met with Erik to get an estimate and before I hired him for the job, my neighbor's hot water heater needed to be replaced, I suggested Erik. He was there the next morning to replace the water heater. After seeing that, I hired him to do my complete heating system overhaul. I was not disappointed. I will not hesitate to call Erik for my next plumbing need."

"I called Gashi Plumbing at 9 am after noticing water coming out the wall from my kitchen. I said it’s an emergency, he came just in time at 10:30 and explain to me everything. He did the job in less than 1:15 minutes which included some extra surprises after checking the pipes. Daniel was so professional and honest. The price was so fair. I just want to mention that he did not want to charge me on something that was not needed after checking something else in my bathroom. He just explained how it will be fixed by replacing the top piece. I am so happy that my call was answered and definitely keeping him for my future plumbing needs and I recommend him. "

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Tenafly, NJ

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.
