What Our Customers Say

Service Area Excellence Robert L., Los Altos

My tenant texted me early in the morning to tell me that the water heater had died. I found Chris on Yelp and Chris responded very quickly with a fair price. His person was super knowledgeable about what needed to be done and the replacement was done within 3 hours of my call.

Highly Recommend Sekhar K. San Jose

I was in a bit of a panic when my water heater started acting up. I called Chris at Bay Area Water heaters and he was incredibly responsive. He came out quickly and diagnosed the issue - my 12- year-old unit was leaking and needed to be replaced. The entire replacement process was completed within 4 hours, which was a huge relief. The technician was very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly throughout the process. I was impressed with their professionalism and the affordable cost of the new unit. I highly recommend Bay Area Water heaters for anyone needing water heater services. They are reliable, efficient, and reasonably priced.

Service that Satisfies Willis W. Oakland

Same day appointment, competitive price, good work, and guys cleaned up after themselves...what else can you ask for? Highly recommend!

Prompt Service Zack P. San Mateo

Needed to replace an electric hybrid heat pump water heater that was failing fast. Talked to Chris via email and scheduled it quickly. Quote was reasonable (almost half of what a few other companies bid). The kicker is that we have 3 flights of stairs, the old unit was huge and failing about 3yrs early. Chris promised 1-3hrs and his plumbing master Tony finished right at the 3hr mark! The new water heater is a Bradford White - super quiet, looks like we upgraded to better quality as well. Overall, very satisfied with everything about this job. I highly recommend this company, Chris and Tony did a great job.

Integrity and Honest Mark R., San Mateo

Outstanding expertise and integrity! I contacted Chris because my 19-year-old tankless water heater wasn't providing hot water. Another plumbing company had already quoted me over $5,000 for a replacement. Chris, however, took the time to explore various possibilities and guided me through some troubleshooting steps over the phone. He was able to diagnose and solve the problem remotely, and now my water heater works perfectly! When it's time to replace my water heater, I will definitely turn to Bay Area Water Heaters. It's so refreshing to work with someone like Chris who is not only highly knowledgeable but also completely honest.
