Recommended Customer Reviews

My water heater was on its last leg. Started calling around for quotes, and found Jay. Called him and he was very personable, he explained my options and the installation process. He was able help me just a day later. He completed the project in just a few hours and I truly highly recommend him to all others. He has been doing the work for 30 years and is definitely very knowledgeable.

He did a great job. Very up front with all of the options. Was on time, got the job done quickly and left the job site immaculate. Everything works great and we are really happy. Would definitely recommend.

Great service! Called the evening of Dec 23 after we realized our hot water heater had flooded our garage! They came out the next morning and got everything taken care of! So glad to have hot water again!

Jay gave me a consult over the phone and had me send in some pictures. He was very helpful and honest even though the job was out of the scope of his work (we probably need our pipes replaced). I appreciated that he was willing to answer my questions and give me direction. This is clearly an honest and knowledgeable tradesman and I would recommend him.

Had an immediate need as my Water Heater was leaking. Called The Water Heater Man and Jay answered. Immediately he put me at ease and asked me to send a few pictures of the existing water heater condition. He explained next steps and availability which was next day and we agreed. I was very impressed by Jay's professionalism and expertise and would highly recommend The Water Heater Man to everyone! Appreciate a job well done!

Jay installed our new Hot Water Heater today. He was very informative through out the process and was reasonable in price. If I need to have this done in the future, I would call Jay. Thanks Jay.

Last night I had a water heater leak. I texted Jay and other contractors through Yelp and he responded within minutes (awesome). Much faster than any other. I sent him pictures of the water heater and explained the problem. He gave an estimate on installing the same set up and set up a time for the next day. Today he gave me a courtesy call and confirmed his time. That's a big deal when a contractor shows up on time. I also have a circulation pump he estimates at $400. I saw it on Amazon for $150-225. I ended up paying the mark up. But overall, Jay was very professional, efficient, clean install and was slightly lower in pricing compared to his competitors. He also followed up a couple hours after install to make sure everything was in order. I would recommend him if you needed a water heater.

Called a couple places on a Saturday morning to see if they could help me with a water heater that had stopped working. They couldn't help until Monday or Tuesday. Jay answered and, picked up what I needed, and was at my house by Noon. In less than two hours, new water heater was installed and everything was working great. Jay was very personable and efficient.

First some quick background - we have been fully quarantined with a high risk person living with us (age & immune system compromised due to chemotherapy). So, when we came out to water leaking all over our garage, we were very worried about how we were going to take care of it safely. I called up Jay based on the positive Yelp reviews, and he completely understood our situation and immediately put us at ease. He was able to give us a competitive estimate on a new water heater install based on pictures of our setup, performed excellent quality work at the agreed-upon price, and most importantly for us in this current crazy situation - was able to handle everything completely contact-free!
Thank you Jay for the excellent work you did for us, and especially for the way you went about it! We were back to normal way faster than I would have dreamed possible after walking out to a wet garage, and we didn't feel like our situation had been compromised at all.

Woke up to wet floors in the garage and front room.....Sent out a request via yelp and Jay answered within minutes and was on-site working within a couple hours. Fair price, QUALITY work and a GREAT GUY to deal with. Thanks Jay!
