    Mickey Mouse job. Exposed drain into open pipe. Smelled like sewer in my entire downstairs April '21 job
    Caroline P.

    It has taken me one whole year to decompress before writing a review about my second house pex pipe install to prevent anger reviews. Some Background: I had my first one story house re piped with lex with this company. Paul came out for intisl appointment. Reviewed how the process would go and the patching aftermath. Moving along... Gilbert was the Foreman and supervised the entire project and it went beautifully. Due to my great experience the first time, I came to them again when I bought my two story house. Paul came. Checked it out and provided me an emailed estimate, nice and easy. Cool, going as planned. Then the not so fun stuff started to happen. Carlos was the Foreman this time. Very nice. Appeared professional and easy to take to. The work was done quickly which I liked but then after checking at night, it was one problem after the other. I literally had over 25 emails back and forth with problems and scheduling repairs through the office. Someone cut an electrical wire so my upstairs bedroom lights went out after hole cutting. They tried to say it was already like that but I told them no. It was not. They got an electrician to open the wall after patching and then fix again. Then, we had a horrible sewer smell coming out of the laundry room. Come to find the unprofessional care of exposed piping draining into the laundry pipe. Exposed without cover. They came back for that. Then my tankless water heater was leaking in my garage, the exhaust pipe I should say. Carlos then said I couldn't vent out from the roof like my old traditional water heater. Another hole punched to the front porch siding which now spits out hot water intermittently. Glad no one had gotten burned yet. Poor aesthetics where seals were done. Then some time later, I wanted to switch out my tub surround for my kids room, when they removed the tub, there wasn't even pex piping done where there should have been. I called the company again and had them come do the job they promised a couple months back which was not done. Endless calls, conversations with the office men was very stressful. It was to the point of crying. I am sure the feeling of annoyance of receiving and making the call for me was mutual. I appreciated the office staff still answering despite of my horrible experience and pissed off attitude due to frustration and exhaustion. Who would have thought this project would turn into a nightmare. You ask, did they fix everything that was wrong? Yes, they did. However, it was a very long process with a lot of emails and calls. Schedules and re checks which made the entire experience a bad one. If you were to ask if I would hire them for this, I would say unless Gabriel is the one in charge, NO. Big money spent for under par service. Again, I feel it is related to inexperienced foreman of someone who is just too over confident and ends up making lots of boo boos trying to cut corners. Sorry Ameri-Cal, this will be our final job with you.

    The team of Luis and Gabriel installed my new hybrid water heater. Luis and his team were courteous, respectful, and professional. Hope this review brings them more business, highly recommended.

    Speedy Water Heaters live up to their name…read more My Rheem water heater stopped working and was flashing a red error light, so I called Speedy Water Heaters. I spoke with Hector, who was able to schedule Michael to come out the very same day. Michael quickly diagnosed the issue and was able to get the unit running again temporarily. He explained that the likely cause was a problem with the sensor line or combustion chamber, and that Rheem currently had parts on backorder. What I appreciated most was that he didn't try to pressure me into buying a new system. He took the time to explain my options and let me make the decision. Since I needed reliable hot water right away, I decided to replace the unit. Michael thoroughly explained the differences between a traditional tank water heater and a tankless system, including the pros, cons, pricing, and long-term benefits. I ended up choosing a Noritz tankless water heater. With the $1,500 SoCalGas rebate, the price difference was only about $700 more than replacing it with another tank unit. The Noritz also came with a 25-year heat exchanger warranty, 5-year parts warranty, and 1-year labor warranty. What impressed me was that he had the tankless unit and all necessary parts stocked in his work van. He got started immediately and completed the entire installation in about four hours. I watched him work nonstop, going back and forth, including multiple trips to the roof. He even repaired a slow plumbing leak that I had been putting off for quite some time. After the installation, Michael walked me through the new system, showed me how to claim the rebate, and left me his card in case I had any questions. That evening, I noticed the hot water pressure at my kitchen faucet was lower than normal. I texted Hector the next morning, and he came out right away. Within a few minutes he had the issue fixed. While he was there, he also helped me adjust the water temperature settings and fixed a small leak on a washer valve. It's rare these days to find a company that stands behind their work and responds so quickly after the job is completed. I'm glad I didn't go the big-box store route. The service from Hector, Michael, and the entire Speedy Water Heaters team was outstanding from start to finish. I have confidence that if I ever have an issue in the future, they'll be there to take care of it and honor their warranty.

    Truly an Honest Review -…read more First off, The Water Heater Company fixed the issue with the pilot light on our Rheem Professional water heater, which had been going out after hours or days of use. This had happened in the past when we first purchased the unit about four years ago. At that time, I replaced the burner assembly and control valve, and the problem was solved. I never found out the exact cause, but it was fixed. Fast forward to today, and the same issue started happening again. Unfortunately, I was away on business, and my wife was home with the kids, getting tired of relighting the pilot every morning and sometimes multiple times during the day. We called The Water Heater Company, and their service and communication were excellent. After diagnosing the issue, they contacted Rheem and ordered replacement parts under warranty: the burner assembly and control valve. They gave us three options: replace the two parts under warranty, replace the entire water heater, or install a tankless water heater. Because this is a very expensive unit that otherwise works well, we chose to repair it. Here's my honest opinion. As a fellow tradesman, I understand that skilled work is expensive. Still, the labor charge of $800 felt very high for what was essentially a warranty part replacement. The first visit took about an hour, and the second visit took around 50 minutes. I understand there's drive time, phone calls, office staff, insurance, tools, and scheduling overhead, but it still seemed excessive. Maybe I'm looking at it through the eyes of someone who usually handles these kinds of repairs myself, but I was away for an extended period and needed the problem resolved. So I'm torn on the rating. Quality of work: 10/10. Professionalism: 10/10. Price: 4/10. In the end, though, I paid for peace of mind and have the issue fixed correctly than save a little money and end up with a possible poor repair.
