What customers say

Customers praise quick responses and technicians who explain the work clearly. One customer said William had another tank on the truck that fit the home's older plumbing setup and later called to check that it was working. Another said code issues increased the price quite a bit.

Tim

Really fast response time. Installation happened early the next day including an upgraded water heater recommended by Quentin, our technician. Quentin was great! Very knowledgeable, honest, and hard working. He is a valuable asset to your team and I hope he is compensated accordingly. Seriously, give the man a raise. You can fully trust your business in his hands. I will recommend FWS to anyone I know in need of a new water heater/plumbing. Thank you!

David Jackson was our technician and installer, and he was absolutely outstanding. He was professional, personable, and took the time to explain the entire process from start to finish. He thoroughly went over the water heater’s functions and made sure we understood everything before he left. I truly appreciated David’s knowledge, honesty, and transparency throughout the entire service. He also took the time to explain other plumbing services his company offers, which was very helpful. If I ever need plumbing services again, I will definitely be calling Fast Water Heater and requesting David Jackson. I highly recommend him!

William and his team were amazing. They showed up right at the start of the appointment and consulted me through tank options. The original tank I had picked out didn’t match the old plumbing infrastructure of the house but thankfully William had other tanks on the truck that worked for my setup. He completed the work same day and got me up and running quickly. He even called to check and make sure everything was working properly after he’d left. 5 stars ??
