"Jason did an excellent job installing my new hot water heater. He was extremely professional and explained everything clearly throughout the process. The installation was clean and well done. He made sure everything was working properly before leaving. You can tell he takes pride in his work and cares about doing the job right. I would definitely recommend Justin to anyone needing plumbing or water heater work done."

"Roto Rooter employee showed up within minutes of my call.  I had trouble with water collecting in my kitchen drain. Our house has three cleanouts.  The main one could not be opened by the employee because he did not have the proper wrench.  We had to find one clean out that was below grade.  Fortunately I was able to find it and so I was not charged extra. Roto Rooter then used his power auger to remove the grease and paper clog in the line.  He then sent a camera down the line and said it was clear. <br /> Unfortunately,  that is not the end of the story.  About 2 weeks later, the system stopped up again. <br /> This time the company sent two men immediately , with all the correct tools,  fully cleared the system and I have had no problems since.  <br /> The work is warranted so there was no additional charge. <br /> The plus side is that this company is very responsive and they take responsibility when things don't go as expected.  I thought the cost was a little high but sometimes you get what paid for. <br /> Bottom line:  I would use them again. <br /> <br />"

"I am amending my earlier review of 01/02/2026 for TR Plumbing. Trevor contacted me after the first of the year to inform me that he is no longer using the services of the subcontractor who was supposed to repair the damage to my bathroom ceiling. He showed up on January 13, 2026 at the time he said he would and repaired the damage. The project is satisfactorily completed."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Newport News, 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.
