Frequently Asked Questions

Our on-site estimate costs $80. A licensed technician visits, inspects your heater, fuel supply, venting and water lines, and gives you your options in writing. If you go ahead with the work, the $80 is credited toward the job, so you are not paying for it twice.

Yes. We hold Connecticut heating license HTG.0410608-S1 and Connecticut plumbing license PLM.0292074-P2, and the company is fully insured. Together, the two licenses cover the water piping, gas piping and venting a water heater needs, so one company can handle the whole job from start to finish.

It depends on the age of the heater, the cost of the repair and the condition of the tank. A failed part on a younger heater is usually worth fixing. A leaking tank cannot be repaired safely. We show you both options and let you choose what fits your budget.

Call us as soon as you lose hot water or see a leak, and we will tell you honestly when we can get there. In the meantime, shut off the cold water supply to the heater and turn off its gas or power to limit damage until a technician arrives.
