I highly recommend Shawn Pappas for any plumbing or water heater installation needs. He installed my new hot water heater quickly, professionally, and efficiently. Shawn responded promptly, took the time to answer all of my questions, and made sure I understood the installation process. What impressed me most was…

Highly recommended. Shawn and team did an awesome job at a fair price. Super happy with the install. They did a tankless hot water unit for us and removed the old hot water tank. Supper clean, no mess, and very quick.

Just had a new water heater installed. Service was professional, efficient, and affordable, all without the hassle of a sales intermediary. Product quality (in this case Bradford White) was also not sacrificed in the process of keeping things economical.
