Best Water Heater Installation in Pittsburgh PA

We have used Scott Boyd plumbing ourselves and recommended them to my mother and our son for various jobs. Here's the first unique thing - they answer the phone!! Number 2 thing is this( wait for it) they actually show up when they say they will.. I know most of you will call bs on that, but it's 100% true!!  We have been stood up by various plumbers ( yeah you know who you are) so many times I still can't believe these guys show up!! And if they have the parts , they fix what needs fixed.  And what they charge is really reasonable. Nice people, decent prices,good work. And don't forget- they actually SHOW UP! So if you want a totally new experience- give these guys a call.

We had Fady come by to make some repairs and we were so impressed by his professionalism, respect, and work. He showed up with a mask covering his face and booties in his shoes before I even answered the door. What a really nice man, too. Highly recommend, all around great experience.

I called Bill Brown with a blocked outside drain problem at my sons rental and he said he would be there at noon and that is the exact time he came.  The price was less than any other places I have called and the drain was unblocked in a timely fashion so no extra fees were charged!  He explained the problem when he was done and my son and I were very pleased!  I will never call anyone else.  I will use him for my home and all my rentals!  I have had similar problems at other rentals and they charged me twice as much as he did and were there half the time!

I called Brett since I had no running water in my house due to a leak. He wasn't available to come out that day due to being fully booked but he gave me advice on how to temporally resolve my issue. He even gave out his personal cell and said to send him photos of anything that I'm stuck on and he would walk me through it. That's unheard of since most people want paid for their time! I will be using Brett's Plumbing in the future!

I have hired Petrack Plumbing several times. Here are summaries:

Appointment #1: The plumbers removed an old utility sink and installed a new utility sink in my laundry room, removed a 1970s-style wet bar in my living room and capped its pipes, and snaked a gutter pipe outside. Afterward, my new sink and pipes worked great.

Appointment #2: The plumber used a camera to determine why my gutter drain pipes were not draining properly. He determined that a dry well/pit in my yard was full and needed to be replaced.

Appointment #3: A different company had installed a new washer and dryer in my laundry room, and they caused a gas leak and did not level the washer and dryer. Petrack Plumbing arrived at my house in less than one hour. The plumbers reassembled my gas pipe, and they leveled my washer and dryer. Then they charged me $0!

Appointment #4: Petrack Plumbing flushed the pipes from my gutter downspouts to my dry well/pit (*different* downspouts, pipes, and dry well than months earlier). They said that my gutters and downspouts are probably clogged and that my dry well might be full as well, but my dry well does not need to be replaced because it can overflow down the hillside.

Then Petrack Plumbing replaced a leaking copper pipe in my basement. The pipe had a pinhole, so the plumber replaced that section of pipe with new copper pipe. They said that the other copper pipes in my house are the thicker-wall Type L pipe, so they should last for more decades.

Appointment #5: My hot water heater and expansion tank were about a decade old and probably nearing the end of their lifespan, so I hired Petrack Plumbing to install a new water heater and expansion tank. Two plumbers arrived 1.5 hours early, but they did call in advance for our consent. They spent 2.5 hours doing the installation. At the end, they explained to my husband and me what the different parts do. The plumbers had noticed that the old expansion tank and pipes were connected to the hot water rather than the cold water, so they installed the new tank and pipes in the correct location. This extra work cost a little extra money, but the final price was still a couple hundred dollars less than another company's estimate.

These guys were fantastic. Very friendly, professional. We had a plumbing emergency, they responded very quickly to the call. Came out the next day and fixed the issue. The price was great, and the job was done really well.

If you're looking for quality plumbing work, hire Joe. First, he returned my call after hours, which showed me that he really cared about my problem. He came the next day to fix my faucet and took the time to evaluate another issue we were having. Joe is a super friendly, honest guy. He's a true master at what he does. I highly recommend him for any plumbing need.

Have been calling Matt Brown for years. This time around I tried to be a DIY'r and I totally destroyed my bathroom plumbing. Matt Brown came on a days notice and fixed in an hour what took me weeks to botch. Very clean, professional, & polite. Will defiantly call again.

Michael was just out at my house to service my furnace. He could not have been nicer and more professional. I am not very savvy when it comes to furnaces but he answered a few questions I had. Could not recommend this company enough.

They are by far the best around. I read posts about price ... a craft comes at a cost. They are within ball of the rest .... Highly recommend for any plumbing need .....

Our hot water heater was starting to go. It was running out of hot water within 10 minutes.  I called Mr. Waterheater on Monday, took some pictures of the old unit and the space between it and the furnace and sent it to them over text. They looked at the pictures and gave me a quote over the phone. Next day they had their techs come out early in the morning and replaced it. Quick, easy, efficient, and a fair price. The price was spot on. They had listed a couple of extras if they needed to adjust the vent, but they didn't have to and gave me the lower quoted price. I can't say enough about how good their service is!

Called and talked to the owner early in the week who told me that he would be at my house that coming Friday to look at the possibility of having some work done.  I re-arraigned my day to be there.  Some one called a 1/2 hr before the scheduled time to cancel.  They apologized and said someone would be out early the next week and that they would call.  No call....nobody came out. They would not return calls.  I finally tried to contact by e-mail and their response was that I should look elsewhere for a plumber. I guess I had the audacity to comment on the fact that no one returned my calls.  How foolish of me!  Just another, My time is more important than yours plumber.  Stay far away from these deadbeats.

I have a new furnace/air conditioner as of today, all successfully installed by Paul and Jeremy.
They were on time, polite, and professional and are employees of Restano, not sub-contractors, which is of huge importance to me.
The end price matched my on site estimate from an earlier visit by Perry and total elapsed time was under 6 hours.
They showed me how to work the new wifi programmable thermostat, showed me changes to the furnace setup, how to change the filter, where new holes were drilled to the outside and new water drainage.
They will come back in the Spring to check the air conditioner installed to ensure it is set up properly.
And, they cleaned up everything afterwards.
Happy and pleased.

My water tank suddenly went out and I needed help. My neighbor recommended Ben Franklin plumbing. I called and they responded promptly. An appointment was set and they showed up on time.  I got a new water tank.

But this does not describe the level service that I received. I was thoroughly impressed with not only their professionalism but with the dedication of the installers. This was a really good group of honest guys.  I was truly comforted to see the pride and dedication that my technicians portrayed.  As crazy as it sounds, not only was I thoroughly impressed, I was moved by their honesty and straightforwardness.
I recommend!

Left us hanging for two months.  After getting on their schedule and had a date and time set, got a call that he's stuck on another job.  No problem, he then rescheduled us for another day and then never showed.  I call and he then says he hadn't rescheduled us!  Totally  unreliable and dishonorable company.

The service was great & the problem is fixed. Their prices, however, leave much to be desired. $400 to have three knobs in my bathtub replaced. We even provided the parts and had taken one of the old knobs off. As I stated, the guy they sent was nice but I feel like I've been robbed. If our tool hadn't broken in the middle of the job, we could have done this ourselves.

Just charged my grandmother $700.00 to unclog her toilet. They only unclogged it and reset it no parts or anything. They were there for less than two hours. They then said they actually waived the trip charge. Pathetic, I stand by my comment to the guy that they take advantage of people that don't know better. Unfortunately she still paid them because they had given her a quote. How unfortunate.
