I just love Dr. Water Heater. A couple years ago they replaced a broken water heater and this time they redid an ice maker connection for my refrigerator. They are excellent workers, very reliable, return phone calls (so important), clean up when finished, and very friendly. They do MORE than water heaters. Tony is the best!

Anthony, Tony as we affectionately calls him, is friendly, reflective and skilled in all things plumbing. tony assesses the situation quickly and efficiently, performs the work skillfully and discusses each step along the way; he is clean, meticulous and prices the job competitively. We will be calling him or text him again soon for some upgrades seeing that he knows our system extremely well.

I called the Doctor Water Heater yesterday after finding my hot water heater leaking all over my basement floor. Tony came out quoted the job immediately, detailing all aspects of the work. By 4pm the work was completed and Tony took his time to review the new system. The quote matched the invoice. He is highly knowledgeable and skilled and I deeply appreciate his professionalism.

Hot water heater was leaking. I put out a cry for help on home advisor and he called in 5 minutes. His professional and calm demeanor eased my tension. He arrived first thing in the morning and within 3 minutes knew what was wrong and why. He replaced everything, got the system up to code, which included having to make a 4 circle in BRICK! Because Ima Nurse did a lot of above and beyond extras for free. The entire job was done before my kids had to start school! You simply wont find better than him. Thank you so much! Forever grateful, Sara

Tony and his crew were amazing!! They found where the pipe was that was causing a huge leak in our basement and garage. They came right away and they were super nice and helpful! I would recommend them for sure! We called them on a Friday afternoon about the leak and Tony came within an hour to check on the problem! Awesome and friendly service!
