Reviews From Drain Busters Customers
Recent Google and Facebook feedback from homeowners who called for clogged sinks, water heater replacement, and urgent plumbing help.
We had a big problem when the kitchen sink clogged up. Bruce came out within a couple of hours, really took time to hear my concerns, explained what he would be doing, thoroughly cleared my drain, and cleaned up afterward. He even called later to follow up and make sure everything was still good. We can trust Drain Busters when there is a plumbing problem. Professional and friendly.
Chris was awesome. He was so nice and full of knowledge. He worked quick to get our kitchen sink back in working order. Would recommend him and Drain Busters to anyone.
The guys came out quickly and replaced my water heater. Fast and efficient, what I like. Thanks again.
Arrived on time and quickly addressed the issue. Highly recommend.
Thank you so very much for your quick and expert response to our plumbing issue today. Bruce was a joy to deal with. Such a wonderful experience getting the job done.
FAQs
Water Heater Repair FAQs
Can you repair a water heater with no hot water?
Yes. We diagnose common no-hot-water causes and explain whether the heater can be repaired responsibly.
Is water around my heater an emergency?
It can be. Shut off water to the heater if safe and call, especially if water is spreading or the tank appears to be leaking.
When is replacement better than repair?
Replacement may be smarter when the tank is leaking, the unit is near the end of life, or repeated repairs would not be practical.
Do you work on both gas and electric water heaters?
Drain Busters can help diagnose common residential water heater issues and explain the right next step for your setup.
