"Tim came out on a service call and determined the coil on our lower unit was leaking slowly. After discussing options he repaired it as best he could. Replacing the coil on my current unit would have been expensive on a 12 year old system. We had him come back and give us an estimate on replacing both of our units as they were of the same age. He discussed exactly what he was going to do and answered all my concerns. Tim even gave us a discount for the service call, being retired military and replacing both units at the same time. Matt and James came out and were very professional, courteous and efficient in their work. They replaced both units (one for the main floor and one in a very hot attic) in 2 rather than the 3 days originally scheduled. Very happy with my experience with all employees with this company."

"Issue: water backed up in laundry room floor and downstairs bathroom commode bubbling noise when two showers were running at the same time. Anthony performed a drain vision procedure determined the possible need to replace pipes due to age, the dirt settling, small roots, grease, soap, garbage disposal, etc. A second test by Jason via drain vision for further analysis. No obstruction however, determined narrowing could continue to be an issue over time. Both Anthony and Jason are very knowledgeable."

"I had a sewer backup into my finished basement - an awful mess.  I called them and within hours they arrived.  The serviceman found the cleanout rooted out my sewer pipe, found tree roots, and then because my pipes were PVC and only 12 years old he got his scope and ran it down the pipe to find the problem.  Found that the pipe was incorrectly connected to the county sewer lines 70 feet away from my house.  I asked if there was anyway that he could locate it literally in my backyard.  He got some more equipment and walked around my wooded backyard, through raspberry briers, weeds, and thorns for 10 minutes.  Finally, he located the spot and marked it with a stake for me. (Because the repair by them of approximately $1500 was more than I could afford and I was going to do it by myself).When it came time for the bill he presented me the bill for $250 for the cost of the rooting only.  The rest he said "didnt take him very long and he was happy to help me out".
Well I am going to dig up the pipe myself this month and then call them back to do the repair on the pipe.  They are going to be my plumbers for life - I cant say enough about what a great experience I had with them."

"RotoRooter has once again come through for me demonstrating HIGHLY Professional Customer Service. They were on time to replace a Hot Water Heater in the crawlspace. I inspected the area with them after the job was done. The quality of their work was as if it would be in a visible and high-traffic area of the kitchen where family members and guests. But this was done out of sight, in the crawlspace where only I would see it a few times a year when replacing the Whole House Filter. I am a VERY satisfied customer, and I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THEIR WORK! If you need a plumber for ANY plumbing issue that may arise in your house, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND RotoRooter!"

"Chris told me exactly how it would go and that it would take about 4 hours. Well he and his co-worker finished in about 2-1/2 hours, cleaned-up and hauled all boxes and old equipment off. Very professional, knowledgeable in a lot of different areas, and punctual (shows-up on-time or calls to explain why he can't be there i.e. weather). I would definitely hire this service(s) again."

"I had another company install a walk in bathtub for me and the water would run cold half way through filling up the tub and I was so disappointed after spending all this money on the tub that I didn't know what to do. Mark came in, did some research for me and ended up installing a 2nd water heater for me and it has worked great since. He was prompt, on time and just all the things you hope for in a Service Provider. He really was great!"

"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 Blacksburg, VA

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.
