"The company came within 2 hours of contact and inspected my water heater. We received a quote before the plumber left. The next day, Jacob the plumber, followed up with me to see if I still needed their services. I called him back to let him know that I did. Within 2 hours he was back at my house to replace the water heater. He was done replacing the water heater within 2 hours! I haven’t had any issues since the repair. Thank you Plumbing System Pro for your awesome service!!"

"Shelby Vernor replaced a worn out gasket to stop the water from leaking around the toilet. He and his helper were very professional and cleaned the bathroom floor. I would recommend this company for all your plumbing needs. I will certainly use them in the future."

"Iâ ve used Joe at Pipers Plumbing for a previous issue with my tankless hot water system. Joe brought my system up to code and added the items needed to do so. We are finishing up a complete remodel of our 2nd floor (which the contractor used his own plumber) we ran into what was originally thought to be a major problem. Our sink, toilet shower and one of the outside hoses ran nothing but HOT water! After spending 30 mins or so trying to figure things out we started discussing where we were going to have to cut in the ceiling of first floor to get access to where we thought the water lines were crossed. (I had many pics and videos of remodel) Joe thought of something. 10 mins later everything was fine and disaster was avoided. The stem in the shower valve wasnâ t installed by previous plumber and it was allowing hot water to feed into the lines. Saved hundreds if not thousands of dollars in work. Then, when I asked what I owed him he said nothing.. $0.. Told me he was glad to help and glad that we were able to fix the issue. When I tried to pay him $100 he continued to turn down the money and told me to consider it my â Veteran Discount â and thanked me for my service in the Marine Corps! Awesome company!"

"We began a complete gut/remodel of our kitchen, doing all the work ourselves except the new vinyl flooring.  The remodel involved moving our refrigerator to a different wall.  When I closed the shutoff valve for the fridge water supply, it didn't stop the water completely.  Not a problem, I thought, I'll just replace the valve.  One turn of my wrench and the valve broke off -- turns out the builder had put an iron elbow onto a copper pipe, and the whole thing corroded.  It had probably been dripping for years inside the wall.  Since we were moving the fridge anyway, I called Alliance (who we have used many times) to get them to cap the old water supply pipe.  I also wanted them to replace the shutoff valves for the sink since we would be tackling that next, and I didn't want a hassle if they didn't stop the water completely.
Stephen arrived on time and began work.  He quickly capped the defective fridge supply pipe, and then he replaced the hot water valve under the sink with 2 90-degree all-metal valves, one for the faucet and one for the dishwasher.  He also replaced the cold water supply with a 90-degree all-metal valve.  I wish I'd have thought of doing that -- if I need to disconnect the dishwasher, the faucet still has water, and vice-versa.  All this work was in the neighborhood of $500 and change.
We asked Stephen about pulling cold water to the fridge icemaker.  He got up in our attic and asked us to make a note of what he was tapping on.  When he came down, he said a cold water pipe ran down the wall right where we wanted the fridge to go.  We arranged to call Alliance back when we finished getting the old cabinets out of the way so the fridge work could be done.
Stephen came back out a few weeks later and braised a "T" onto the cold water pipe in the wall, ran a short length of new Pex to a new 90-degree all-metal valve for the fridge water supply, and mounted everything into a plastic wall housing.  It looks good, a nice professional finish.  This second job was $590.
We like Alliance Plumbing because they're punctual, professional, they do good work, and they have a price sheet for jobs, so you know what it's going to cost up front -- no surprises.  Their prices usually seem higher than what I expect a job to cost, but to be fair, nobody calls a plumber when their day is going great.

"I had a 14 year old water in my attic and after the pilot lite went out for the second time, i decided to get a new heater. I called 1800 plumber at 3 pm and Chad arrived at 5. He went into the attic and re lit the pilot so i would have hot water. Anyway i bought a new heater, which was installed the next morning. Everything was perfect and i highly recommend 1-800-plumber and especially Chad"

"I got two estimates to replace my hot water heater. Valton Povataj customer service was miles ahead of the other service man that gave me an estimate. This is why I went with Nickâ s. Valton gave me several options as to how I could save money. I went and picked up the hot water heater same day as the estimate and Valton was back at my house within 1 hour and had it installed 30min later. I highly recommend Nickâ s."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Friendswood, TX

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.
