Water Heater - Repair or Service
Found my waterheater leaking all over my garage. Called Express Water Heater Service in a panic. (I’m 73 and clueless …) Aaron was so helpful on the phone that I could stabilize the situation until he could get to my home for the repair. I opted to replace the water heater - zero pressure from Aaron. He was great to work with! Friendly, professional, skillful. I highly recommend Express Water Heater Service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Express Water Heater Service is the best in the west! Aaron is friendly, professional, highly efficient and does an expert job. He was on time, showed expertise at his work, in and out in a jiffy, and again did an excellent job as the first time we used them.

Express is the perfect name! I got same day service after I discovered my water heater needed to be replaced. Excellent customer service and with amazing quality at a very reasonable price. I paid nearly 40% less than I was quoted from another company. Highly recommend, I will definitely be telling my friends and family about them!

Our old water heater started leaking out the bottom the day after we left on vacation. A friend was staying at our house and discovered it. We gave Express Water Heater a call, and spoke with Aaron. He was very responsive. Aaron diagnosed the issue (tank leak, not repairable), and gave us options and a bid for replacement. His communication was excellent, and took pictures of the job during and after. We appreciated the clear communication and prompt, punctual service. He also left the site very clean. Having a leak while on vacation was stressful, but our experience with Aaron was exceptional. I would highly recommend Express Water Heater!

Came to my home in less than two hours from initial contact and no additional charge for coming out on a Sunday! Repaired my water instead of pushing for a new one. Would definitely hire again.

Aaron, who will take over the company in September, made this process so easy. He quickly responded, provided an accurate quote over the phone (no additional time for an appointment), and juggled his schedule to minimize our time without hot water. He also informed us about a potentially related issue, educated us about the options, and resolved it at the same time he installed the new water heater. Aaron provides exemplary service at a fair price and I am so happy that I now have identified a plumber who will not only help me but also that I can refer to family and friends! Thanks, Aaron!

The owner and his team mate were right on time, not five minutes before or after. They eyed the old heater and right away informed me that installation was done improperly years ago plus showing me where it was starting to leak. He listened to the tank and knew right away that everything was "baked" inside taking them a little longer to drain the tank. They installed the new tank at an angle for easy access and had the project done within the hour timeframe given. It was a pleasure having them do the replacement due to their knowledge, professionalism, and work ethics. I was informed that they do not use water heaters from the "big box stores" but order directly from the same manufacturer they have been associated with over the past 30 years. Highly recommend using Express Water Heater Service for your water heater needs!

Called Express Water Heater Service and spoke to Earl. It was about 8 30 AM and I explained we had a leaking water heater. Earl said he could be out within an hour if I wanted and I assured him I wanted! He and an assistant showed up promptly, looked over and inspected our water heater and explained that it was actually leaking from a couple of spots up top but they could repair and service the unit for around $175. That sounded fair to me but I asked them how old my unit was, as I hated to throw good money after bad if I could be better off replacing the unit. They informed me it was from 2008 so certainly in the not so distant future I would be thinking of replacing it. I asked how much for a new install, he gave me a fair price and said they could do it now. Considering this way I would have a warranty for years on the unit I gave the go ahead, they installed the new unit which looks great, removed the old unit and cleaned up well, all told about an hour and half of calling Earl we had a brand new water heater up and running! I would recommend these guys for your water heater needs without hesitation, and I will use them myself for any future needs. Thank-you Express Water Heater Service.

Earl called in and fit us in today. Earl came out within an hour and half. A diagnosis was done and earl was able to spot the problem immediately. The pilot light was out and was off by accident. Earl spotted the problem immediately and due to the nature of the project he provided the service free of charge. A + plus rating Earl and his helper were very accommodating and helpful. I would only hire this company for any related issue in the future.

I'm happy with the services provided. They replaced a 50-gallon gas water heater and an expansion tank. They were fast. It took about 3 hours. They cleaned up nicely and took away our old water heater which was not leaking or having obvious problems, but at 16 years old it was beyond its expected service life. Friendly, professional, and efficient. New water heater works great. Our tap water actually tastes better now. Maybe our old water heater was sending debris into our water lines. Happy to recommend them.

Called on Sunday afternoon and got a call back from Earl within the hour. Scheduled the repair for Monday morning and Earl was at my house early and completed the gas water heater replacement quickly and professionally. I am very happy with the reasonable cost and the prompt, expert service. I highly recommend Express Water Heater Service to everyone. This is the second house I've had Earl replace a water heater in and I'm very happy with both experiences. My other house had an electric water heater, this one has gas.

Excellent! And very fast (45 minute installation)! I researched water heaters and knew I wanted a Bradford White or secondarily, an AO Smith. I requested 3 bids and one was for an AO Smith. All 3 bids were within $200 dollars of each other but Earl was able to come the next day so I went with him. He & Aaron lived up to all the Anglie's list reviews! Fast, experienced, and knowledgeable. I'd hire them again without hesitation and I am confident he will stand by his installation and product. What a relief to get someone so quickly and qualified.

Our water heater died today and the wife was not happy about taking a cold shower. I gave Express water heater service a call and talked with Earl and he gave me a quote for a new water heater and said he could install the same day. The price was good so wanted it installed. Earl and Aaron showed up with the new water heater and was completed in about 1 1/2 hr. Wow, what a professional company with a great install. Thank s Earl and Aaron.

Earl showed up at 8:20 or so and within an hour we had a new water heater, earthquake straps, new water service lines, new gas lines, and a new hot water shut off and the old one taken out! He went over how to operate the new one. Anyone needing this service would be lucky to get the services provide by Earl and his helper. Cannot say enough about the professionalism, care and curtesy of this person!!

A major plumbing company in Vancouver was booked solid so they referred me to Earl. I called on Monday morning at 7:00am and explained that the pilot light went out and would not stay lit on the water heater in a rental home I own. Earl said he could be there between 9-11am. He was very punctual and showed up early. He said the pilot assembly box needed replaced and explained what had happened in terms I could understand. He explained the cost upfront so I knew exactly how much it would be. He performed the work and my renter had hot water within the hour. I am extremely pleased with the work he did and would highly recommend him.

Aaron responded quickly and got to us as soon as he could. He was very pleasant & knowledgeable. He got our problem solved quickly and so we were able to get water back into our house and finally use our new washing machine. Thank you Aaron. We will absolutely contact you again if we are in need of a great plumber!?
