Cold showers can point to sizing, venting, or pressure issues, and water heater replacement or installation may require permits and plumbing, gas, or electrical code compliance. A trained plumber can typically match the setup to code, helping reduce rework or inspection delays.

Staci T. says, "I contacted Mr. Prater for my Aunt that is a senior citizen. I personally did not meet him but She had nothing but very good things to say about him as far as his work quality & knowledge of the bathroom plumbing issue she was having. He was honest & told her what he could & couldn't do(which both of us appreciate) & took care of the problem for her @ a very reasonable price. She is happy that the issue is fixed & satisfied with the work he completed for her."See more

My pilot on my 10 year old water heater would not stay lit. I called this company to come have a look at it. I asked for a thermocouple replacement. They came in my home and did not even attempt to try and start my water heater or even identify a problem. They just began taking pictures of aged parts of my tank and instantly told me I had an old water heater and needed a new one. I knew my thermocouple was damaged and they said they would charge $1,900 to repair it which wouldn't be worth it. So instead they suggested buying a new water heater and sent me a quote for over $2,700. I've never even seen a gas water heater for that price. Even if that quote included installation and labor, that's well over $1,500. I called another company and they did the repair for $250 and my water heater is now working fine. I felt like I had salesmen in my house rather than someone trying to fix my problem. I didn't put 1 star because I don't believe this company is full of scammers, and I'm sure they do quality installation work, however this was my experience with them.

Our water heater was acting up. Our appointment was at 4 pm. Our tech arrived at 3:30!! He was able to get us a new water heater and get it installed by 7 pm. These guys don’t work on commission, so I trusted him when he said it was time to replace. Explained everything he was going to do. Couldn’t have asked for better service!

The work was too notch. I had new water heater installed. Professional, friendly, and honest. His prices were extremely competitive. I highly recommend.

Gabriel is one of the good ones! We needed a new water heater. After getting delays and high quotes from a couple of area plumbers, I found Gabriel was highly recommended on Nextdoor. Even though it was after 5pm, he responded quickly, provided a very competitive quote, and made space in his schedule to get our warm water back within 24 hours. He offered pricing to install a pre-purchased water heater or he could bring a new one with him. We were thrilled with the price and availability, but when some unexpected issues came up with the old water heater, we were blown away at how professional, thorough and industrious Gabriel was. I'm sure he stayed longer than he had planned to make sure everything worked correctly, but he didn't increase his price over the original quote. 5 ⭐s!!!
