"I called Dorian to replace our water heater. He came out that day and relaxed our water heater and adjusted some pipes. He was very professional and most importantly honest and reasonable with his pricing. I would highly recommend him."

"I ended up having a serious leak & water damage that needed to be repaired before the toilet could be installed. Jerry & Eric explained the problem & arranged the work with a fire & water damage company. Jerry & Eric were great guys...friendly yet professional & knowledgeable. I will definitely be calling this company for future plumbing needs & will recommend them to family & friends."

"Scott responded quickly to the initial service call and his crew showed up on time once we agreed on the deal and schedule the appointment. I was out of town so he worked well through phone calls, texts, and photos and then with my family who was home to provide access to the house. He quoted a competitive price to replace our gas water heater and rearrange the gas line to solve a leak and to fit the new water heater better into the available space. He was straight about what was included and what would be extra in his quote. After his crew left we had some concerns that did not meet our expectations. Scott got immediately personally involved; he scheduled a crew to return a few days later (our concerns were for nothing urgent) and put everything right. We ended up with a small extra charge, which we had expected and was fair and reasonable, to get the gas line configured to our satisfaction. My experience after many years of working with others on projects like this: Scott is a stand up guy with a solid customer service philosophy, a commitment to quality product and craftmanship; he provides fair and honest quotes for only what is needed - no upselling. I will use Plumb-IT again, if needed,"

"I walked into my basement on Saturday afternoon to discover a pool of water on the floor.  Looking at the walls I traced it back to right above the window that sits below my kitchen sink.  I popped the paneling off the top of the window box and immediately saw that the galvanized pipe leading from the sink drain to the stack had corroded and a hole had formed.  Frantic because it was 4pm on a Saturday and I knew I couldn't use my kitchen sink or dishwasher until I got this fixed (no easy task with two toddlers to keep up with), I jumped onto Angie's List looking for a plumber with Saturday hours and a good rating. 
I called McDonagh and was told they could have someone at my place in an hour.  Todd showed up at 5:30 and immediately got to work.  Patrick (the owner) showed up with his son Nolan shortly thereafter to take a look and get Todd some parts off of his truck.  We gave Nolan a piece of the pizza my kids were having for dinner as an apology for interrupting his Saturday too.  Patrick came back with a price estimate that seemed fair to me for emergency short-notice service on a Saturday night.  Todd replaced the entire section of pipe from the sink drain to the stack and was finished and out the door by 7:30, leaving us with a fully functional kitchen again. 
Huge thanks to Patrick and Todd (and Nolan) who really saved the day for us.  These guys are absolute professionals and really saved us from some major inconvenience.  Would absolutely recommend and use them again.

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