Best Gas Water Heaters in Portland OR

Great service. Great communication. Friendly and professional. My gas water heater failed dramatically and I needed help fast. I have a very old house, so nothing that breaks is ever simple to fix. I'm so glad that I called Joe because he came to the rescue quickly and made the whole process pretty darn painless. I highly recommend!!!

I would give Sutherland Plumbing 10 stars if I could.

When we had a gas water heater that was leaking badly, Sutherland took care of us in a timely fashion. Their answering service was excellent. Courtney, the receptionist at the office, was an excellent liason/communicator between us and the the crew. Ti, the owner himself, came to our house to safely de-commission the heater to minimize further water damage. When we discovered significant water damage to our home, the company was flexible to allow us enough time to repair the water damage and still get the new heater in ASAP so we wouldn't have to go to a motel.

Sean Anderson, the plumber who did the installation, is knowledgeable and professional and meticulous in every way. All the fittings and attachments were done in a secure and aesthetically pleasing way. He answered all our questions patiently. He educated us in ways to minimize future plumbing problems. He went the extra mile advising/helping us with other plumbing concerns.

Great service from start to finish. Scheduler was pleasant and got right back to me. Terry arrived on time. Explaining everything to me and also showed me how to turn water off at street if we ever needed to do this. While he was on site he asked if I needed anything else done. I now know who to call for expert professional plumbing services.

Recently, I had a big problem with my bedroom toilet from roots. I called Burfitt Plumbing and was very fortunate how fast the technician took care of the problem. The guy ROCKED!

He was very informative, explained everything he was doing, and answered all of my questions. The price was well worth it.

Worked with Chad today. Good man! Easy to work with. Listened to my problem and found a reasonable cost-effective solution.

We have had Bob out once to sink a new tub and install drain, shower and tub faucet. That was a big job. Today he came out to replace our exterior hose bibs. He is so professional and does excellent work. I think everyone in Oak Grove should use Nichols Plumbing. Bob thank your wonderful service.

Green Box Mechanical recently re-plumbed my 9-plex. It was a large, complicated job (as there were tenants in the units). The job went very smoothly, the Green Box plumbers were professional and did quality work. I recommend them and would use them again.

LOVE this company. Eric Buckner came to my home to clean out our mainline. Im a woman and was home alone with my two kids and was nervous to have a stranger in the house. When he knocked on my door he introduced himself and was so kind and professional there was no room to feel nervous or worried. Before he even arrived I received a text with his photo so I’d know who to let in the house. He joked around with my kids and gave them coloring books as well. Each time he’d have to leave the house he’d knock again before re entering so I’d always have a heads up. He was so quick and thorough as well and left behind no mess even though he was doing a dirty job. Honestly best service I have ever received from any type of maintenance I’ve had done. I highly recommend this company!!

Meticulous Plumbing has become our go to Plumbing Company. We have used their repair services a minimum of 5 times. Beginning with answering the phone - when we have a need, calling to let us know an earlier time than scheduled has opened up, no surprises - the openness and honesty with which we are of the cost before they proceed (yes - we would hope it would be less), and the professionalism of the plumber preforming the work. And thank you to Terry Taylor for his work help on the most recent repair!

I would highly recommend this company. Tim was professional, knowledgeable, bid was competitive and I just had a better feeling about him doing the work vs the other companies we received bids from. He also was courteous in the way that he tried to keep drywall damage to a minimum. This is the only plumber my family will use going forward.

Derrick and Loni are wonderful to work with. I recommend strongly. Knowledgeable and efficient.

So rude

Our home was built in 1913 and it was time to have the pipes replaced. Jeremy was very professional and provided honest input. Him and Nick prepped the space well and cleaned up after themselves on a daily basis. They were always on time and got the job done and went above and beyond. Highly recommend and trust Panda Plumbing. Thanks again!

Rick at Fast Water Heater (FWH) installed a new water heater in my home on 3/25/2014. I found the water heater at Home Depot; Home Depot referred me to Fast Water Heater for the install. This was not a same day install, if that makes any differrence. I have no ties to FWH, the plumber Rick, or anyone else involved in this review.

To summarize, I would definitely use FWH again and would definitely recommend them, and Rick, to my friends. Assuming FWH does other types of plumbing work, FWH/Rick would be my plumber of choice.

Someone at FWH called me the same day I was at Home Depot to purchase a water heater. The person that assisted me on the phone was great and very knowledgable. FWH was going to pickup, install, and take away my old heater. The water heater I wanted Home Depot was no longer carrying (it was on close-out); and there were questions regarding physically fitting the water heater into the space where the old one was and whether the power line could handle the water heater. With the help of FWH, I double checked both fit and available power and then FWH checked on their computer to see what Home Depot had available. With the expertise of FWH, we picked a water heater and scheduled an install for the following day within a two hour window. Not having to wait all day or all morning/afternoon was a pleasant surprise.

The install day we got a call from the plumber asking if he could come early. This was good. The plumber was Rick; he was licensed and knew what he was doing. The way the old water heater was installed was not to code so he took the time to explain to me exactly what -- any why -- he needed to do certain things to meet code. I know there are a lot of people that question codes, but being an engineer I know that most times there are very good reasons for the codes. It did raise the cost but the raise was not significant and reasonable; this rings especially true after comparing the before and after.

Rick did an excellent job installing the water heater and redoing the plumbing to meet code; the work Rick did is exempliary. Before Rick, the plumbing was a rat's nest; after Rick it's clean and neat and easier to deal with. Obviously I picked the water heater so I'm hoping it lasts; FWH gave excellent advice along with telling me they would not install an open-box water heater. Apparently they have had problems with open-boxes so they will only do new sealed-box heaters; this is good advice, imho.

I don't know about labor pricing as I didn't have time to run around and get estimates. From previous plumbing work I've had done, I'd have to say the price was fair (as in not overpriced nor underpriced) for the work -- no gouging, no games -- and that the work was excellent. I appreciated that Rick reused the few pieces worth reusing from the previous plumbing (certain brass fitting) rather than simply tossing them.

All in all, dealing with FWH and Rick was a pleasant experience. It's nice to find a locally owned (Pacific Northwest) company that does quality work at a reasonable price and, from talking with Rick, treats their employees well.

Call the company for the first time a man answer the phone did not tell me the company name just said hello super standoffish I asked if he can come out to check out my home he said no he can’t I asked him if he can refer to anybody he said no and hung up on me super weird I would not recommend them
