"I was very happy with the quick response I got. Within a few minutes of submitting a request for service, Jeff called. He was professional and accommodating. Our water heater broke and needed to be fixed before going away for the weekend. He was at my house the next morning and replaced the water heater in a few hours. J. Griffin employees are nice, respectful and explained what they did. I would highly recommend J. Griffin."

"Highly satisfied AGAIN in a second job with Mouradian (hot water heater earlier). This time was a replacement of leaking cast iron sink waste pipe imbedded in the wall/floor between two condo unit bathrooms. Eric Mouradian is very no-nonsense, fast in his estimates, and reasonable in his pricing. The plumber who did the job, Rich, was excellent: friendly, efficient, and clear about what was going on. He understood immediately that his first instinct, to open up the ceiling and wall of the downstairs bathroom should be avoided if possible, to limit wall repairs to one bathroom instead of two. And he then quickly figured out how to do it and did it. The cost was considerably less than the quote of a competitor, who misdiagnosed the problem at first, refused to put his quote in writing, and showed no interest in keeping wall damage to a minimum. No comparison."

"Excellent. I went to Angies List in a panic because it was raining in my basement when the shower was running. Less than 5 minutes after I consulted with Angies List I received a call from J. Griffin and within an hour they were at my house. I don't even know how to thank Jeff, I was expecting the worst and got the best! He knew immediately what the problem was, he clearly knew his business very well. The problem was more or less user error and I was a little embarrassed but Jeff never made me feel as though it was a bother or a nuisance to respond and he refused to charge me as much as I thought he was worth. I'm so sorry I just realized I didn't hit submit on this review. It was several months ago, but I still wanted to finish this because they were so wonderful."

"I wanted to replace an out dated oil furnace with an efficient low carbon hvac system that heated my home in the winter and cooled it in the summer. I checked out Angies List for hvac providers in my area, made some comparisons, and contacted vendors. I chose N.E.T.R. based on the reviews on Angies List and the product presentation by the sales rep. for N.E.T.R.
The product performance,installation time frame, and cost matched exactly the proposal submitted to me by N.E.T.R. The technical support staff - Adam and Jose' - installed the Mitsubishi heat pump system with a professional skill level that I found to be reassuring. Russell Dodd, the sales rep., provided detailed support to my various questions. His attention to my product order-installation was more than I expected.
I feel confident that the product and services provided by N.E.T.R. will perform to my expectations.

"We were very pleased with the work that the Genove technicians did. They removed our 40-year-old gas boiler and associated water heater and replaced it with a new system. They tested the new system carefully, put explanatory tags on all of the relevant pipes and faucets, and cleaned up well. The team members were polite and worked hard. We had similarly good experiences when Genove technicians came to repair our central AC system. They were knowledgeable and efficient, got the system going again, and the price was fair. We continue to use this company for heating and AC repairs."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Cambridge, MA

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.
