"Kevin arrived at the upper end of 2-4 window, covered his shoes and went right at the slow drain problem. I added Taggert to my contact list and shared with neighbors."

"I've used Raecon Plumbing many times over the years. They are always very knowledgeable, and competitive price wise vs. other companies. Services I've used include water heater replacement , tub and shower remodeling, sewer clogs, drain replacements on sinks and toilets. Other drain lines buried both under my house and in the ground outside. I recommend to my friends and family as I'm a firm believer that once you find someone you can trust you don't need to look elsewhere."

"Found Chris on a Sunday as our water heater died while we were on vacation. He called right back and initiated the conversation. He didn't have our specific model in stock, but he was able to get it and he was at our house at 8AM for the installation. Job well done!"

"Mr. Kachurick installed a gas line for a fireplace in my home. He was extremely knowledgable, friendly, and professional. The service he provided was top tier. He made sure I understood everything he would be doing and even showed me how he checked to make sure the gas line wasn’t leaking after installing it. Not only did he provide us with excellent service in terms of the line installation, his expertise also gave me peace of mind, knowing that we were provided with high quality work."

"I filled out a form on Angi about an AC problem, and Calfo was one of the first to call. The call was initially a little bit confusing because they answered the phone by name-dropping HomeAdvisor, but not the name of their company, until I asked where they were calling from. Regardless, my AC wasn't working and they were the first one to get a technician to my location. The technician quickly made a determination as to the repairs to be made. The price was significantly higher than I expected for a simple capacitor replacement, but it was Friday afternoon and it was hot outside. The technician showed me the estimate on their iPad, then clicked through to another screen where I signed. I asked the technician to perform the immediate repairs necessary and give me a quote for full system replacement. Before getting my quote for full system replacement, the technician asked me to fill out my information on a form. As I was filling out the form, I saw that SSN was being asked for, and noticed that it was a credit application. This was not made clear to me before I was asked to fill it out. I declined to fill it out further because I was not interested having a hard-pull on my credit report when I simply wanted a quote. When I received a signed copy of the invoice for the repair work performed (which I didn't get until I asked about it the next day), they had included an additional charge that wasn't mentioned in the price I was given in person, and one that I certainly did not see when I signed. Despite this, my signature was inserted on the bottom of this electronically generated form. Given my experience with their repair service, I am not going to hire Calfo for replacement of my AC system. Also, their quote lists minimal detail compared to other quotes I have received. Quotes they provided don't have any details about the specific parts replaced, nor do they mention any particular brands or model of equipment. Their prices were also higher than price ranges others quoted, and given the surprise repair charges and lack of detail in the quote, I do not have a good impression of their honesty."

"I was connected with Dylan through Angi. During initial conversation about the work, I found him genuine and asked him to schedule the work sooner. I showed up the next day and within the given time frame, he replaced the hot water tank. He is very genuine, polite and knowledgeable about the work. I highly recommend All Star services."

"The pvc pipe disconnected from under my kitchen sink. Bill called me within 2 hours of me trying to find a handyman and came right out. He fixed my sink right away. Great service and did not over charge. Thank you Bill ! Also sorry about our dog. She is not a happy camper having to be in her kennel when there is company, but you did very well about her. Thank you again! Shannon & George"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
