"Removed old water heater and installed new water heater and brought water heater up to code. They arrived on time and performed the work efficiently and neatly. The price for the direct vent water heater plus installation was about $250 less than another local quote. Overall I am very satisfied with the price and quality of the installation."

"We had another plumbing company come out due to a leak. Rather than do any diagnostics, they just replaced the pressure valve. It still leaked. I called the next Monday and was told oh, you need a new water heater. Johnny Gavilan from Preferred Home Services checked a couple things and found our expansion tank was bad. He did warn us there still could be a problem with the water heater but at least he checked first. If we need the water heater replaced, our expansion tank will be new!"

"I woke up to no water pressure in the house and my front yard quite soggy. I called the water company, they sent a crew out and confirmed it was a leak on my side. I called Plumb Pros and they fit me into their earliest available slot, which was about 2 hours out. They showed up on time, located the leak, and had it patched in less than an hour. I also had an additional issue with a water heater in another building on the property that wasn't working. Scott was willing to take a look at it, diagnosed that it was probably the top heating element. Pulled it out and sure enough it was burnt up. After a quick replacement, we were up and running again. So, in under 3 hours after I had placed the initial call, my initial problem was completely fixed, as well as the 'while you're here...' problem. Scott and his sons conducted themselves professionally, efficiently, and the cost was well within what I considered the realm of reasonable. The next time I need the services they provide, they will absolutely be my first call."

"The whole house plumbing inspection I was satisfied with, but they refused to do the other part of the deal with the water heater flush. Which was the only reason I bought the deal. They said it was too old and they might brake it. Even when I asked them too even if it broke, they still wouldnt do it. I was very displeased with the overall service."
Septic Repairs
Holy cow!! We found it!
Almost looks like we didn't just install 400' of 4'' Storm Drainage to save the septic system from near total failure.

Sometimes excessive storm water can wreak havoc on a septic system and cause the system to break down prematurely. 
The septic system was drowning, we suggested diverting the storm water to protect the septic tank & field lines. Problem Solved.

"They reached out quickly. Was very welcoming and friendly. Did try and push things on me, and actually listened to what I was saying. Great customer service! Would definitely be reaching out to them if anything else is needed!"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Central, SC

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.
