Nick from Gates Plumbing and Drain Service did an excellent job replacing my broken gas water heater! His communication was responsive from the start, he arrived on time, and the price was very good. Nick’s professionalism and clear mastery of his trade were obvious—the procedure was quick and seamless. He explained what he was doing and left everything clean. Very impressed overall and highly recommend him.

Gates plumbing arrived when he said he would, clearly explained what he would do. He did an additional snaking that cleared some on the clog which allowed him to use his video camera to better asses the issue. He then walked us thru drain issue completely with sharing video of the issue. He then used the water jet to clear the rest of the clog. He pointed why the issue occurred and suggested remedies as well as providing a quote to do the work. There was no high pressure sales for them I do the work. I felt confident trusting his work and his recommendations. I highly recommend his services!!!!

Details: Yes, repair is urgent • Multiple drains have issues • Clogging • House
