Plumbing Pals for water heater installation
Clear ✕All 50 Google reviews tagged “Water heater installation”
I’ve used Plumbing Pals twice this summer for different jobs, and everyone I worked with was excellent. John and David installed a new Bradford White hot water heater, replaced my kitchen faucet, and repaired my bathtub. On a separate, unrelated visit, Alan and Kyle fixed a leaking dishwasher connection and…
They are the best of the best. Not only were they super easy to work with from customer service to the actual job. They truly care about the customer. I will be referring everyone to Plumbing Pals! Shout out to Alan and Dave !
Easy and helpful!
I’m so very satisfied with service, they came in looking at my pipes and fixed it right then there, fast and speedy. This is my second time hiring them and I’m so very satisfied with their work.
I've been going to Plumbing Pals for various plumbing issues for at least the last 5 or 6 years, and I won't call anyone else. They respond extremely quickly (even faster if there's an emergency), the work is quality, and the pricing is fair – they always propose what actually needs to be done, and won't upsell you.…
Fantastic reliable service! Plumbing Pals were ready to help when we called and outdid themselves with the job assisting the Bridesburg Cougars! Thank you very much!
Plumbing Pals did excellent work helping out the Bridesburg Cougars get their hot water heater installed! Thank you for the great work!
An incredibly professional experience once again! We had our ductless ac serviced and our heater repaired. The technicians arrived as scheduled. Both crews cordial, polite and professional. The Plumbing Pals Team provided us with the Best Home Improvement/Service Work that we have had done in the last 10 years. I…
They really helped out good price thank you same day hot shower today
Stephan and Leroy were great.
Simply the best. Started with thorough communication, execution, service, quality of work, and follow up! The whole process from start to finish was seamless. Got a bunch of water heaters at a multi unit property as well as a few boilers. Highly recommend!
I came home from work and had roughly 7" of standing water in my basement. Immediately called Plumbing Pals and they were able to send someone out to my house within 45 minutes to pump the water out of my basement. Travas was incredibly helpful and acted quickly to prevent further damages to my basement. He was…
Called in our leaking non-functioning water heater at 8:00 am and had a brand new functioning one at 1:00 pm. Extremely fast response time and service and the technician explained the process including the underlying issue. Will definitely use and recommend plumbing pals in the future.
Prompt arrival, efficient work
I had a great experience with Plumbing Pals! From the moment I called, they were responsive and professional. Stephan was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. They replaced my water heater within 2 hours of calling, which seriously exceeded my expectations. The work was done quickly and cleanly, and…
They came right out the same day, ordered the part and fixed our water heater. They answered all of our questions and were very professional.
Amazing service as always! I've used them before in the past and they really make plumbing emergencies so much easier to deal with.
I am a property manager and always use Plumbing Pals they do very good work, are very fairly priced and are reliable, what more can you ask for
Hands down the best plumbing service I have ever used. ALWAYS on time and never any hidden issues when it comes to pricing. If you are looking for a plumber, economy should be your choice.
The technicians were very knowledgeable, cordial and skilled. I will consider using your company for my future plumbing projects. 👍🏾
Replaced the hot water heater. Great service and fair price
Very professional took care of the problem clean and neat all around a good experience
The team arrived on time and quickly handled replacing our hot water heater and handled a few other items. The work was exceptional, the team was professional and nice, and everything exceeded expectations.
Economy was out today because I thought my new hot water heater was leaking. They made every effort to get here today and they did! Thank you Tim for your prompt attention to this matter and thank you Economy for such great service. I will definitely be using them in the future! If you need a plumber ALWAYS call…
Would give double stars if an option. My recently purchased home seems to have just about every plumbing issue imaginable, and Economy's been incredible with detecting and fixing everything so far. The team's been exceptionally accommodating with getting things completed as affordably and efficiently as possible.…
Anthony was awesome. Helpful and knowledgeable. Really saved me!
I am really happy with my experience with Economy Drain. It was easy to get an appointment for a quote, they plumbers were polite and professional, fair pricing, quick and clean installation. I highly recommend using them for your plumbing needs.
Economy got to our house really quick after our water heater sprung a leak. They identified that the water heater needed to be replaced and replaced it in less than 2 hours. I appreciated that speed and responsive to our emergency situation. There were some minor details/issues they left behind, and if I did this…
Anthony and Tim were great! Super speedy and quality work.
Awesome service - Travis and his crew did a fantastic job replacing the old cast iron pipe in my basement. Would highly recommend!
Anthony and Tim arrived extremely promptly and then went above and beyond in trying to find a replacement part to repair my 2004 water heater (they went to 4 different shops trying to find it). When they couldn't find it, they quickly brought in and installed a new water heater. They were both extremely polite and professional. I would 100% recommend.
Anthony did a wonderful job he is the best plumber I have ever had contact with you guys have a customer for life I am over the top satisfied
Anthony & Steve did a great job replacing the hot water heater. They showed up on time & were professional & communicated well during the job! Would highly recommend this company! Thanks guys!
Really fast and professional! I was surprised at how quickly they came out on a Saturday to replace my old leaking hot water heater. Honestly went way above and beyond to fix an issue with the manufacturer. I’ll be turning to them with any other plumbing needs!
Anthony was great! Quick, easy installation. Professional, knowledgeable and on time. He took the time to show me what he was working on as well. Definitely would recommend for any plumbing services
We had a water heater at one of our rentals let go after years of good service. We called Travis at Economy upon a trusted referral and he did not disappoint. Our day went from a disaster at 8 am to a new water heater installed and back up running by 3pm. Anthony was our tech who was courteous, knowledgeable and…
Anthony is wonderful. Him and Al, installed two water heaters for my multi-family home. Anthony has a great ability to detect the source of the problem, even when the space seems a bit chaotic. I just purchased my home a few months ago--the basement is unfinished with disorderly wiring. Somehow Anthony figured the…
After chasing a warranty with the manufacturer (Rheem…don’t buy them) for 2 days I got fed—up and decided I needed to cut my losses and keep my sanity. I called Economy and 2 other contractors…only Economy was able to accommodate me within 90 minutes!!!!! Allen called me with his ETA while picking up the new…
Prompt, courteous, professional & time efficient. I received a great product and an even better price. I can’t say enough good things about my experience.
I could not be happier with this company and my experience with them! I noticed my hot water heater leaking on Memorial Day Weekend and had trouble getting in touch with other plumbers. I was preparing myself to be without hot water for a few days but then my friend suggested Economy Drain Cleaning and Plumbing,…
