Hands down the best Hot water company I have ever dealt with. If you are you looking for an honest professional to service your home, look no further. You will not be disappointed. Getting estimates has always been a hassle for me until I found this company. Thank you!

Doug responded quickly to my repair request. They were able to schedule my repair for that same day. They arrived on time (maybe even a little early) and quickly made the repair.

Very responsive. Called one day and got a quote and tankless water heater was installed the next day. A miracle especially during Covid with all the other home improvement delays we are experiencing. Doug is very knowledgeable even if I had to ask him to dummy it down for me a couple of times. Price was competitive and service was outstanding.

Doug got back to me on a weekend when other firms I called did not. He was very honest and worked with me through numerous text messages to diagnose the issue. We had agreed on a reasonable price to fix the unit when Doug texted me back asking me to watch a you tube video to see if I could reset the unit myself. He said it was worth taking a chance so I did and it worked! Problem fixed. I offered Doug $100 for his time and expertise, but he said no thanks. He was glad to help. While I did not have any work done I give Doug and the Hot Water Heater Company 5 stars for honesty, expertise and willingness to spend their valuable time helping me get our hot water back. If my unit eventually breaks I will be calling them to do the repair.

Doug responded quickly on a Sunday night and was here to do the job the next day. He rerouted the pipes and changed the angle of the pressure tank for a cleaner installation at no extra charge. Thanks Doug

I am not good at names and forgot the installerâ s name. I was a machinist for 45 years and the workmanship I saw in your installer was exceptional. A very nice guy,,, would be proud to have him as my employee

Doug responded IMMEDIATELY, was extremely thorough and pleasant, and did a superb job removing the old leaking water heater and installing the new one with all safety and security connections. He is VERY skilled in his work, considerate, and patient with clueless customers. He also provided the most value for the price. I'm happy to recommend him enthusiastically and gratefully.

Doug examined the water heater. Described the issue clearly. Recommended a replacement since a repair was next to impossible (leaking from bottom of water heater). Estimate given (if a replacement was needed, prior to work being done) was for all work and parts so nothing else was added on. Work was done in a few hours on the day of the call. Just great! Personable and friendly to interact with. Definitely would hire again if needed.

Hot water heater sprang a major leak about 5:00 a.m. Sunday morning. I called them about 8:00 and the new heater was installed by 11:30. Great job!

Doug was awesome, gave an extremely fair price. Free estimates and no fee service call. His quotes we by far the lowest and he only sold what I needed. He did not try to up sell me anything or say I needed to replace the whole water heater.
