"They came Highly recommended and I can see why. They were prompt, knowledgeable, attentive to my concerns, and very reasonable. They were able to offer recommendations and provide a quote prior to work being started. I had several things replaced (faucets, water line, and hot water tank). I am very pleased and would recommend them for any job, big or small. I can't say enough about these guys."

"James did an outstanding job. He contacted me 15 minutes after he received my information from Angi. We set up a time and he arrived 30 minutes after we talked on the phone. He provided me a quote. I hired him and also had him do other work while he was there. He replaced my water heater, replaced outside facet, plus a couple of minor things that he found. He completed everything to perfection within 4 hour of me submitting my request. James was very professional,, very affordable, and answered all my questions to my complete satisfaction. I have added James to my list of experts to call and he #1 on my plumbers list now. I would definitely hire again."

"We had hired another company to install the unit and it wasn't working properly. We called them several times and they never show up for the repair. We had a disabled veteran living in the home who needed air conditioning. We hired Kelly Heating and Air and they found that it was not installed properly. It is working just fine and we have had no problems with it. They are the only company we will use now."

"Overall I couldn't be happier with the service provided! 

We contacted 4 local companies and decided to go with Plumbing Installers. We decided it would be better to go with someone who wasn't necessarily the cheapest but understood what we wanted and the standards we expected - I'm disabled and have been lusting for a soaking tub for years, so it was important to get it right first time for me.

Matt visited us and took plenty of time to listen to what we both wanted, and offered some advice that we really appreciated - we were going to go with a Pergo floor but he mentioned the problems he's seen with these in bathroom spaces. He also advised us that we'd be better off moving the layout around slightly as it would free up enough space for a small storage closet, this is great as it saves me schlepping towels in from another room, which I had to before. 

Not knowing a great deal about which brands are good or bad it was nice to hear some impartial advise, and we were left with plenty of literature about the various products we were interested in. We eventually settled on an American standard soaking tub and he designed the rest of the bathroom based around that as it's huge! 

I was really impressed at how quickly they got it done, I was expecting it to take a week but it was done in 4 days. The first day was lots of hammering and banging as they got rid of the old stuff. The second day seemed to mainly consist of doing the plumbing and making new walls, and the third day everything just seemed to fall into place. One of the guys came by on the 4th day to paint the walls and finish up, and left the place like something out of the catalogue! 

Matt came by a week later to check up on it and make sure I was happy with the job, which was a really nice touch - I was just expecting a phone call or to be forgotten about after they were finished."

Moved to a new house and the water was yellow and stinky due to rust and hardness. Called Glaser Softwater and despite the owner being on vacation, they still took immediate action and had a rust remover and water softener installed within a few days. We’ve had water softeners in the past but Glaser has proven to be the best by far! Our water went from yellow and nasty to the best water we've ever had. I can personally attest that  there is a BIG difference amongst water softeners and Glaser Softwater systems are AMAZING! I would give them my best recommendation not only for a superior product but also for professionalism and excellent customer service.

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

On average, a tankless water heater should last between 10 and 15 years. Its lifespan will be affected by how much it's used, the effect of weather where your home is on the unit—colder is harsher and will shorten lifespan—and if the heater is maintained appropriately and regularly. There are many signs your water heater needs to be replaced, so pay attention to anything that changes with your heater or hot water.

You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.

The average cost to install a new water heater is approximately $1,300, with a typical price range between $880 and $1,800. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type and size of the unit, its location and accessibility, and the amount of labor required. For example, installing a unit in a tight space like a crawl space can increase labor costs. The type of water heater significantly impacts the price: while a conventional gas heater might cost less than $1,000, tankless models can cost around $2,600 to install (and up to $3,500), and solar heaters can cost upwards of $3,700. Other factors that can affect the total price include the fuel type, vent system requirements, permits, and whether any additional plumbing work or repairs from previous water heater damage are needed.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

We recommend you turn off the unit, the power, and the water supply as soon as you notice a leak. Your water heater tank should have a dedicated shut-off valve located on the cold inlet pipes. If the valve is broken or inoperable, use the shut-off valve to your home's main water supply to stop the flow to the entire house.

Avoid touching valves or pipes directly without confirming if they are hot. Wear gloves and other safety gear to keep from coming into contact with hot levers or components when turning off your leaking water heater.
