Best Water Heater Repair in Philadelphia PA

Fantastic service with an honest, reputable owner who seems to care passionately about plumbing and genuinely helping people out. Mark came to our condo building an hour after calling at 7am and the first thing he said was call the city water department. Didn't charge a dime. Thank you for your dedication to your customers Mark!

Great work from this company,  Anthony, the technician was very professional and accurate in his work.  Highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs. They showed up when they were supposed to and texted and call when on the way to the home.

Warren is a man of his word.  I called him late on a Friday and he came to my place on Saturday morning as promised.  He did a great job at a fair price.  His crew where clean cut and professional.  He did his best not to make a mess fixing my clogged toilet and they cleaned up afterwards.  Just a heads up, you can pay him through Cash App.  If you have a plumbing emergency then I recommend you give Warren a call. He'll do right by you.

Aqua Plumbing & Heating did a great job at my house getting a fairly complicated drain issue fixed. They communicated really well, answering my questions, helping me figure out how to get the most out of the job, indicating how they would approach the work and what possible issues could be discovered in the course of the work. One of these turned out to happen, and the adjustment to their proposal was completely reasonable. They carefully inspected everything before making their proposal, which was detailed and clear. Everything was done on the schedule they indicated. I feel like they provided an excellent value, and it was a pleasure to work with them. They even managed to do some while we're working in this area extra work that I had asked them about (installing an additional radiator) that boosted the value of the work even more, adding value to my home. Excellent on every front. A fairly rare level of quality, service and value.

We had an excellent experience with John Snyder Plumbing. Booking an appointment is fast and easy and they even send you a confirmation text and email. Their plumber who came out, Xavier, was on time, very polite and friendly, knowledgable, and cleaned up after himself. When he was finished working (we had our hot water heater and boiler serviced and a shut-off valve replaced on our outside water line) he went over everything he did in detail. I've never had such a thorough plumber! We'll be using John Snyder Plumbing from now on for all of our plumbing needs.

I don't' give 5 stars unless the business goes above and beyond.  
I wanted to leave a review for Kit from Plumbing N Things because he totally deserves it.

I live just outside of Washington DC and my elderly mom lives out in Philly by herself.  She'd been having issues with her toilet and the water not filling up properly after she flushes. All she could say is that she hears leaky sounds every couple of hours.  

I finally scheduled an appointment with  another company rated high on yelp, drove up to Philly to be there for my mom and no one showed up!!! The other company gave me excuses about the other job taking so long and forgot to call us and said they can come another day.  Are you kidding me???

Frustrated and angry I continued down the list for another week calling and leaving messages.

Kit from Pluming N Things got back to me right away.  He was so nice on the phone and told me that I didn't have to drive up from DC again.  He offered to go out to my mom's place the following day and face timed me to explain what the problem was, gave me an estimate and because it wasn't a huge issue, he offered to fix the problem right away.

I saved 6 hours of RT driving time, toll, gas, and not to mention he was really nice on the phone and facetime, AND he didn't rip off an elderly lady and take advantage of her.  

Thank you so much Kit, for restoring my faith in plumbers.  I really appreciated your professionalism and kindness.

Highly recommended!  I needed a plumber to fix something I tried doing myself (water supply line for an ice maker) but I screwed it up and needed a pro.  In the meantime a bucket was catching the drips.

Earlier in the day I had a plumber come from one of the bigger companies whose trucks I have seen in our area for years, come give an estimate.  He took a look, said he had to go call the boss, then came back with an absurdly high estimate.

Using Yelp I found Rick Lucas plumbing locally and called.  Rick answered the call, said he could be there within 1-2 hours, would call first.  He called back as promised and arrived shortly thereafter.

Rick took a look at what was needed.  He also determined that some additional copper piping adjacent to what I messed up needed to be repaired as it was corroded, and verbally gave me a price.

Rick not only replaced all the necessary piping including the additional areas that he recommended, he also added the necessary fittings and connections and shutoff valve and flexible steel supply hose and completed the connection to our new refrigerator.  Rick worked non-stop, and is professional, courteous and friendly, and cleaned up afterwards.

Best of all his price was 33% less than the first place that came.  (Plus I returned the parts I previously bought to Home Depot and Lowes so saved even more).

I am very pleased that I had Rick Lucas Plumbing do this job at our home, and wouldn't hesitate to call him the next time I need a plumber.

One of the best Master Plumbers in the area. Always great work and affordable. He has done work on our inside plumbing and outside plumbing needs. I've used Miller Plumbing for several years now and I wouldn't think of using anyone else!

I'll start this out by saying - as you can see from my picture - that this was the best service technician arriving message I've ever gotten.  I loved that they provided me with a photograph of the person arriving, it adds a feeling of safety and security for when I answer my door.

Second, Billy, the plumber who arrived, was pleasant to speak with, reasonable, professional and he did a very good job installing a new toilet in a more challenging space. My house is approaching 85 years old, so things I have found in the world of repair and replacement can be ... interesting.  

He was careful to disclose to me all the fun things that could go wrong that would result in a higher cost, he was efficient and thank goodness none of those things were wrong, so we had a new toilet.  

I used the Yelp quote service to hire Valdel, and I have to say from start-to-finish they were all responsive, professional and the whole replacement felt effortless.

I would definitely use them again and would recommend to others. Thanks Yelp for pointing them in my direction!

Was able to get out to the job I had fairly fast. Gave great advice and did a job well done.

Zip to zip plumbing is a responsible company. They were very reliable and on time. To do the job.

I want to thank Chris Williams for what he did for my wife and I today.  We were watching water seep into our house from a pipe outside.  I called several plumbers and everyone told me they could not help because they were booked solid.  When I spoke to the nice young lady at Williams Precision Plumbing (sorry, I didn't remember her name), she told me they too were booked solid.  However, she sounded truly sorry to tell me that, so I felt comfortable asking her if she could recommend someone who might be able to help.  She agreed. Within a minute or so, Chris Williams got on the phone and calmly asked me to explain what was going on. After listening to my explanation, he suggested that I text him some pictures of the outdoor pipe I was speaking about, which I did. Within 5 minutes, he told me that the reason the shutting off of the main water valve in the house didn't help, was because this was an irrigation pipe. He told me to trace the pipe back into the house and find another valve that would control the irrigation system.  He did all of this, while calmly apologizing that he couldn't come by right away because they were involved in a major job where an inspector was present. I followed Chris' advice and within 5 minutes was able to identify the correct shutoff valve and the water finally stopped running. In an age where many will not go out of their way to offer help unless they are directly profiting from their assistance, Chris offered help because he is a true professional and a very decent guy.  You can rest assured, the next time we need a plumber, Chris will be the first person I call.

Our friends referred us to MyPlumber when we bought a house in South Philly. We have used them for 2.5 years on multiple occasions for issues related to bathroom, kitchen, water heater and boiler and have always been extremely satisfied with them. They are comprehensive in their knowledge about all things plumbing related and they are very honest and reasonable.  We trust them very much and appreciate their willingness to come to our house usually with very short notice. Bernie and Mike are both very friendly and very trustworthy plumbers.  We would not consider using anyone else.

Mr. Rooter plumbing was great. We had a huge crack in our sewage line into the concrete. They were able to give a consultation same day and snaked the drains same day as well. They were very knowledgeable and professional. They even followed up with us and were able to schedule their work in the same week. They came 2 days in a row to drill into the concrete, remove the old plumbing and insert new PVC pipes. They did a great job and for a reasonable price. All their workers are very friendly as well.
The only thing that wasn't 5-star worthy is they left some old piping in our front lawn for a couple of days. We were told someone would come pick them up next day but we had to bug them for a couple of days to come get it.

Used Yelp to find a plumber and I'm glad I gave this company a chance although the ratings were low.

Kevin responded quickly and came out within a day- which was much needed.

Very responsive and quoted me a great price.
Kevin was the worker who came out and he was friendly and explained exactly what needed to be replaced and showed me the finished product after.

I would recommend this business and would be using them again.

Nic came out promptly to replace my shower diverters and some eroded pipes in the back. He was quick, professional and explained everything he did. I'll be using him for all my future plumbing/HVAC needs, and the best part is, he is a local small business owner.

Goodman Plumbing installed our new furnace and we couldn't be more happy give these guys a chance they have top notch customer service. Our home is 100 years old and was challenging to install our new high efficiency unit, they worked well over 10 hours into the evening to get this installed for us so we had heat for the night. No one could have determined the difficulties in store for them which lead them to make an emergency home depot run at 9p to get this done for us. The guys worked tirelessly from 9a-10p to finish the job. Two weeks after the install we were concerned about some tapping noise coming from the unit one of their guys came back out at 7p (a few short hours after we called) and took a look at this for us for no charge. It really put us at ease, we will continue to use Goodman going forward you should too!

Had to write this 'Buyers Be Ware review for my fellow Philadelphians. Best choice was our Worst Choice. They did a bait and switch taking advantage of my 90 year old dad by writing an estimate for a clogged basement sink with standing water in the basin which prompted the call for service. Their detailed estimate indicated the sink needed to be replaced, the drain would be cleaned of all the debris, they would clean all the pipes and replace the sink for $695. Several hours and lots of attitude and poor customer service later, they demanded payment in full even though the newly replaced sink was now clogged and still not draining. They said their drain guy would be coming later to take care of that. They demanded to be paid in full for an incomplete job. They refused to leave without being paid. They were done working but we still had the same exact problem we had before they arrived. After a heated argument, my dad had no choice but to pay to get them out of the house. Eventually, the drain guy came but he could not unclog the drain. He said we would need someone to dig up the cement floor out to the sewer lines in the street which would cost thousands of dollars more. He demanded his pay and left with the sink still clogged. So we paid $695 for an extremely basic new sink. Take it from us -- DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICE. Again, Best Choice was the Worst Choice we ever made.
