I can’t recommend Jay and The Water Heater Man highly enough. I called with a water heater that had stopped working, and rather than immediately scheduling a service call and charging me to come out, Jay took the time to talk through the problem with me over the phone. Based on what I described, he suspected the issue might actually be the electrical breaker rather than the water heater itself. He walked me through what to check and suggested having the breaker looked at before spending money on a water heater repair. He was exactly right. The breaker needed to be replaced, and the water heater is working perfectly again. Jay spent his time helping me diagnose the problem, saved me the cost of an unnecessary service call, and never charged me a dime. That kind of honesty and customer service is hard to find. He could have easily come out, charged me for a diagnosis, and told me the same thing. The Water Heater Man will absolutely be my first call for any water heater work I need in the future. Highly recommended.

We called Jay right when we heard a disturbing gas sound. He instructed us over the phone how to turn off the gas. As we had an older water heater, he was able to come the next day and replace it. We are very appreciative!! Thanks Jay for the honest job, and quick installation!

Jay replaced a water heater and a venting pipe. He treats you like a family friend, he tells you exactly what the issue is and provides possible options for your situation. Plus, he is a great communicator that you can easily reach by phone or text (you actually get to speak directly with him, not some answering service). The project was done quickly and cleanly. I highly recommend him for any issues you may have.

Jay owns and is THE Water Heater Man. He installed a new water heater for us a few years ago. He was on time, cost was better than all the other companies we called! He was on time, responsive to calls and providing information. He pulled the permit. No hassle for us. He totally backs his work and knows every building code for water heaters! He did such a great job I called him without hesitation to work on my water heater since I have moved. Unfortunately, he was not able to help me as I live in a mobile home and since He does ALL the work himself he wouldn't be able to install a new one by himself. But, he treated the issue like it was his. He took down all the info, had me send the pictures, and then referred me to Signature Plumbing. (Jim did an excellent job, see my review) I ask you, who does that nowadays??!!! He followed up to make sure all was good. I have referred him before to my family and will continue to do so. There is no other person who can compare to any problems with water heaters! He just is a gem of a person and an HONEST business man!!!! Call Jay, THE Water Heater Man!!!!! He deserves more than 5 stars! He deserves the world!

I was looking into getting water heater replaced with tankless. We were constantly running out of hot water and our water heater tank was old. I reached out to Water Heater Man describing what I was looking for. Jay contacted me back the same day and even dropped by. He never tried to outsell me anything. Understood my needs and gave me his honest opinions. Even gave me a good quote that night. I ended up going with them. Jay was AMAZING. Professional and courteous. Install was very clean. I highly recommend him for any water heater needs. Thanks Jay!

Great work! Jay did exactly what he said he was going to do in the exact time frame and price quoted. Everything works exactly how he said it would. We had a tankless water installed and a bypass valve for instant hot water. We had faucets that wouldn't get hot for minutes and now seconds. Definitely would recommend. Only does water heaters. We're very satisfied with Jay's work.

Last night I had a water heater leak. I texted Jay and other contractors through Yelp and he responded within minutes (awesome). Much faster than any other. I sent him pictures of the water heater and explained the problem. He gave an estimate on installing the same set up and set up a time for the next day. Today he gave me a courtesy call and confirmed his time. That's a big deal when a contractor shows up on time. I also have a circulation pump he estimates at $400. I saw it on Amazon for $150-225. I ended up paying the mark up. But overall, Jay was very professional, efficient, clean install and was slightly lower in pricing compared to his competitors. He also followed up a couple hours after install to make sure everything was in order. I would recommend him if you needed a water heater.

I had a problem with a leaking Bradford-White water heater installed about three years ago. The water heater was still under the manufacturer's warranty. I took pictures of the water heater to confirm the serial number and diagnosis. Jay handled all of the interaction with the manufacturer for the warranty. He came out and installed the replacement two days after my first call. Great service.

Jay replaced a water heater for us a few years ago. He did an excellent job!! I don't really think there is anyone who knows more about water heaters than Jay! He does every job on his own so you don't have the issue of talking to one person but a different service person comes to do the work. He does every aspect!!! He pulls the permit. No hassle for you!! He installs each one and knows ALL the codes. He is on time, responsive to phone calls, answers questions with kindness. He is THE guy to go to for a fair price, quality work and backs up his work. Now, here's the real kicker!!!! I have moved and my water heater went out. I called Jay without hesitation. He was so honest, apologizing that he couldn't work on mine as it's in a mobile home and he wouldn't be able to install a new one on his own. But, he went out of his way to help me find someone who would be able to help!!!!! He took all the info and pictures as if doing the job himself! He referred me to Signature Plumbing. They were great. But, the point is, who does that??!!! Takes time to help without asking or getting paid!!! He is a quiet gem of a person and an honest business man!!!!!! Call Jay, the Water Heater Man!!!!!!!

Would give him more stars if could! We noticed brown water in our tub. I ask AI...I was worried a pipe was broken..AI thought it was the water heater and checked the serial number ... the date it was 12/2002... so more than ready to be replaced. AI said get three estimates. I was so happy with the information Jay gave... me the price was less than I expected. He only installs Bradford White which is the make I wanted. Also, like the idea of working with the owner... who I know will be there if there is a problem. He gave us a Senior discount. He worked around my schedule and was prompt, courteous, cleaned up afterwards. Would recommend him to others!

Our water heater went out on Saturday and Jay was one of the first to respond to my Yelp request. Just from talking to him on the phone, I could tell he was knowledgeable, professional, and just a genuinely good person. I received three quotes from different companies and Jay's came in as the lowest. He got our new water heater up and running on Monday without any issues. I would highly recommend Jay for your water heater repair or replacement needs!

Jay is fantastic! I called on the weekend assuming I would leave a message for an appointment and he picked up right away. He gave me so much helpful information on replacing a water heater for my elderly relative. He gave us an appointment for the following day, arrived on time, and discovered an issue with a gas leak from a corroded pipe that went undetected for who knows how long. He was able to explain everything clearly and fix it right away! He is someone you just feel like you can trust and who takes pride in their work. Great service and workmanship!

I noticed a small water puddle on our garage floor and detected a leaky water heater. I reached out to two plumbers for assistance. Jay (the Water Heater Man) responded within the hour to find out my situation. He was able to fit me into his schedule the next afternoon. Jay and Ben were right on time and took about 2 hours to replace valves/pipes and install a new water heater (that services our upstairs bathrooms). I really appreciated Jay's responsiveness and clear communication throughout the process. I would the Water Heater Man my 5-star endorsement! (Sacramento, not SF)

We called several plumbers for bids on putting in a new water heater. Jay was NOT the cheapest BUT he was the most direct and honest about our needs. He does quality work at a reasonable price. IF you're lucky, you get what you pay for. With Jay we were lucky and we did! Highly recommend.

Can't say enough about Jay. Listen, when you've been taking cold showers for a few days (we waited until after the holiday weekend to call ) having someone that is responsive and has a sense of urgency and a clear understanding of the problem and can handle the parts warranty side too !! When the job was completed we also found out that Jay is our neighbor. It's great to know that we have good honest people like Jay so close to us and can support local businesses. Thanks Jay we appreciate the great service.

Jay did not install a water heater for us but he saved me some money. I appreciated his response and wanted to let others know. We have been experiencing issues with our water heater for weeks. We shut the power off and then on again at the breaker, which solved the issue. On Friday, we lost hot water again, flipped the breaker but this time it didn't help. I called Jay first thing Monday morning, explained my issue and texted pics of the water heater as requested. Within a few minutes, Jay called me back. He suggested I contact AO Smith directly as the water heater is less than 2 years old and still under warranty. I took his suggested, sat on hold, chatted with a rep who had me clean the filter (which wasn't dirty) and take ambient temperature readings. Called AO Smith back, got a different rep who told me the plumbing was leaking (brand new build, no water puddles). Ultimately, I reset the breaker and the mode on the heater and again have hot water. I DO NOT recommend an AO Smith hybrid water heater but I HIGHLY recommend Jay. He was professional and helpful. He spent time understanding my issue, offered suggestions to save me money and patiently explained potential solutions. When I get sick of playing the reset game, I'll be calling Jay to replace my water heater.

Jay was a godsend in an emergency situation and very transparent in terms of costs and install process the entire way. He installed a water heater for us in a 1957 house in South Land Park. with old pipes in a limited space and kept us informed the entire way. His price was very fair and his customer service skills were excellent. Highly recommend the Water Heater Man for combination of quality, value and customer service. Thank you very much Jay.

Moved into my house in 2015, water heaters worked fine but were super insulated on outside. Turns out that they were installed in 1987!!! (Which is probably why they were so insulated on outside Lol). So I guess I can't complain about getting another 8 years out of them before one went down on Monday and coincidentally the other on Wednesday (maybe a water pressure spike?). Anyways, I talked to Jay on Wednesday and had two new water heaters installed by Friday. These were two tough locations to work with too. Jay and his partner worked through the obstacles and got it done in one day when we planned for two. I would certainly recommend them. Great job guys!

My water started leaking and I completely stressed out over it. I was given a couple quotes, one of which was a "You buy, I pick up and install" situation. This was suspicious and rightfully so, it was a scam! Beware of these. I called The Water Heater Man as my third call and he was out within about 24 hours and installed the new tank. Great communication, very responsive, and excellent customer service. One man show and very much appreciated. I would strongly recommend him to anyone needing a new water heater or repairs!

Doreen L.

Jay did a wonderful job and I would highly recommend him. Unlike the other water heater repair companies I reached out to, he provided me complete details on why my water heater stopped functioning, provided me a great quote and scheduled me the next day. He kept in communication and requested pictures so he knew exactly what needed when he arrived. He showed up on time and had the repair complete in about 2 hours. He was friendly and very professional. If you need water heater service "Don't Delay, Call Jay".

I wasn't able to use this company to replace our hot water heater since they were booked, but Jay was so professional and helpful when I called so I feel obligated to share my experience. He didn't have availability to provide service same day which is very understandable. But he took the extra time to give advice on next steps to prevent further flooding damage from our broken water heater (turn off water & gas, drain out water with hose). He even offered to walk us through it over the phone. He then referred us to another company which we ended up going with. I really appreciated his expertise and recommendations and I'm sure he does great work as well!

Our Bradford White water heater stopped heating water after 16 years. We contacted several installers and decided to work with Jay because he was responsive and kept in good communication. He showed up on time, even on a day that will surpass 103 degrees, was efficient, did really nice work, and left the work area clean. Jay installed a new Bradford White water heater at the price he quoted without any extra add on charges. We are satisfied with the brand which has been reliable and keeping us in hot water for all these years. Highly recommend Jay for anyone that needs a good water heater installed. Thank you for the great service!

Our tank hot water heater leaked and stopped working and we called Jay and he was responsive and able to come take a look to make sure he could convert to a tankless and then provided an estimate and appointment for the work.

Where our water heater is made it a little more complex but Jay was able to do the extra work to complete the job.

First and foremost Jay is honest and very responsive. Came to look at my water heater and it just needed a good restart although he did detect some minor condensation he said it will need to be replaced soon but not right this moment. I will be seeking him out soon to get it replaced but I really appreciate the honesty... thanks Jay!

This review is late in coming but I couldn't let it go without reviewing Jay's wonderful service. As can happen, my water heater went "out" over a weekend. And not knowing who to contact, I looked up repairs in Roseville. So glad I found Jay. He contacted me the same day and made a quick visit Sunday morning and determined that a replacement was necessary. By Monday morning all new installation was complete. Jay is an exceptional contractor not only for his skill and professionalism but such a pleasant personality. Would highly recommend his work to anyone!

Detected a leak yesterday. Looked for a local business with good reviews. Found Jay. Spoke on phone - he gave a quote based on photos and conversation. Came out today (next day and on weekend). Did the work for the quoted price. Also, he fixed some issues with how the builder configured the pipes (no extra charge). I will be calling back for more business.

Our water heater was having issues a year ago, I called Jay...he was very responsive and asked me to send pictures and describe the issue. He was able to come by and inspect it right away and said it should be replaced soon. I decided to wait, and this week it started leaking, Jay came by again to inspect it and it was fully corroded. We replaced it with a tankless heater and it is wonderful, unlimited hot water and more efficient. Jay is very service oriented and a great communicator, we're really happy with the end result. Thanks Jay for all the great work and for quickly getting us up and running again!

In the end I didn't realize he only did water heaters .. and I didn't need that. But, he took the time to listen to my plight and helped the best he could. To me this is so much more important than just rushing me and acted as if I were a bother. So, if thinking about going with him... do!!! He's a good person and I'm sure does quality work. Thank you Water Heater Man. You helped more than you know.

Contacted Jay to get a quote for a new water heater and installation. He was very responsive and a few texts and pictures later we had a very competitive quote so we set an appointment. He arrived this morning right on time and did a great job of installing a new water heater. Very impressive service from a professional and friendly person. Highly recommend The Water Heater Man.

Jay(The Heater Man) is knowledgeable on water heater replacement. He does exemplary job. His new unit plus labor price was reasonable. He also commits warranty on his installed parts until Water heater becomes end of life. Definitely recommend The Heater Man for any heater and plumbing related service.

Extremely responsive. I sent Jay a Yelp message on Sunday night and he responded quickly to my request. He requested pictures of the current water heater and shortly thereafter provided a quote and that he could be over 10:00 am Monday. We ended up going with him. He showed up timely, did a thorough job, and was finished within 2 hours. Jay made a stressful situation easier. Highly recommend.

I had a great experience with this company. Yesterday afternoon (Saturday around 5pm) I came out to my garage flooding. Water was rushing out of my 50 gallon water heater and I didn't know how to shut it off. I searched emergency plumbers and The Water Heater Man came up. I called Jay and he FaceTimed me immediately and helped me turn it off with instructions on how to hook up a hose and drain it overnight. He was able to come out first thing Sunday morning (today) and installed a brand new water heater at a very reasonable price. Thanks for helping me so quickly! Highly recommend.

I wanted my water heater replaced since it was near its life expectancy. I contacted Jay and we worked out a schedule for him to come out. He was prompt, efficient and did a fabulous job. I am very, very happy with his service and the price was extremely reasonable. Definitely a great experience!!

Amazing service!! Walked out to take the kids to school and discovered water all over the garage, the water heater failed. Called a few companies and the prices were extremely high, they know you need them. Called The Water Heater Man and Jay answered, sent him a few pictures got an amazing quote. A few hours later we had a new water heater installed!! Thank you Jay, your service was impeccable.

He was on time, he was efficient and very clean. He was really pleasant and spoke intelligently and to me instead of "at" me. He really did us a great favor and at an amazing price. I'd definitely hire him again and refer him to anyone looking to upgrade their hot water heater system.

Jay was great. He was upfront and honest about the cost, even FaceTimed me to take a look at the issue we were having with our water heater. I highly recommend him for any water heater work needed.

Jay answered the Yelp message and gave me enough info to make a decision to hire him after a brief phone call. He showed up the next morning and we had hot water within a couple of hours. The install was clean and looks professional. Great decision to hire and when we install our tankless, I will call Jay first thing.

Called this morning for a quote. Jay picked up, gave me some great information over the phone and set up a time to come and give me an estimate. He arrived a few hours later and walked me through the whole process of getting a tankless system. He is very personable and knowledgeable. He suggested I look into a water softener system before spending the money on a tankless system, (we have a well and hard water). Jay explained that if we don't have a treatment for our water then the tankless system would most likely experience problems. I appreciate the honest advice and his candor. I would highly recommend The Water Heater Man company to anyone.

Jay was able to provide a quote through the Yelp app and even asked me to send a few pictures to ensure his quote was accurate and he understood the exact needs for my water heater replacement. I requested numerous quotes and found his price to be reasonable and he had a quick turnaround time. He came out the next day and removed our old water heater, installed a new one and hauled away the old one. He was easy to work with, prompt (even early) and explained the process. I would recommend him.

Found Jay through some initial research and then via Yelp. Heard back from him the next morning after reaching out late the previous day. I wasn't in a big rush but I know my Water Heater had minimal time left. When Jay got back to me, we scheduled a call and discussed a direct replacement tank type water heater or a demand type water heater and Jay confirmed my understanding of the positives and negatives of each. I decided to go with the tank type since the one we had gave us great service and our needs were well suited to the tank type of water heater - also Jay was able to provide the same brand that we had before. He gave me an estimate that was very competitive (less than others I had received) and he really sounded like he knew what he was doing - especially since his focus was on water heater repair/replacement only. Jay scheduled me in and texted me 15 minutes before he arrived. He got the job done efficiently, and even though he had to install a new supply valve, he did it pretty quickly. The install looks great and I'm really looking forward to my next shower where the water will be hot for the entire shower! I would highly recommend Jay for any water heater problem you might have - prices are great, great knowledge and experience and workmanship was outstanding!

Jay goes above and beyond for his work. I would definitely recommend to all my friends if anyone ever needs a water heater repaired or replaced. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He also gives a quote based on the pictures I sent to him which saved me $100 for an on-site quote which I absolutely love it. He had my very unique type of water heater replaced very fast and priced very reasonable compare to some other companies.

Jay is a class-act and really knows his stuff. He responded to a quote request within the hour, even on a holiday weekend. If you're looking to go tankless, he's definitely your guy, especially for larger units. We replaced a 100 gallon dinosaur, and couldn't be happier with hot water at the tap in far less time, far lower gas usage, and still multiple showers at once

My water heater was on its last leg. Started calling around for quotes, and found Jay. Called him and he was very personable, he explained my options and the installation process. He was able help me just a day later. He completed the project in just a few hours and I truly highly recommend him to all others. He has been doing the work for 30 years and is definitely very knowledgeable.

Jay gave me a consult over the phone and had me send in some pictures. He was very helpful and honest even though the job was out of the scope of his work (we probably need our pipes replaced). I appreciated that he was willing to answer my questions and give me direction. This is clearly an honest and knowledgeable tradesman and I would recommend him.

Had an immediate need as my Water Heater was leaking. Called The Water Heater Man and Jay answered. Immediately he put me at ease and asked me to send a few pictures of the existing water heater condition. He explained next steps and availability which was next day and we agreed. I was very impressed by Jay's professionalism and expertise and would highly recommend The Water Heater Man to everyone! Appreciate a job well done!

Called a couple places on a Saturday morning to see if they could help me with a water heater that had stopped working. They couldn't help until Monday or Tuesday. Jay answered and, picked up what I needed, and was at my house by Noon. In less than two hours, new water heater was installed and everything was working great. Jay was very personable and efficient.

First some quick background - we have been fully quarantined with a high risk person living with us (age & immune system compromised due to chemotherapy). So, when we came out to water leaking all over our garage, we were very worried about how we were going to take care of it safely. I called up Jay based on the positive Yelp reviews, and he completely understood our situation and immediately put us at ease. He was able to give us a competitive estimate on a new water heater install based on pictures of our setup, performed excellent quality work at the agreed-upon price, and most importantly for us in this current crazy situation - was able to handle everything completely contact-free! Thank you Jay for the excellent work you did for us, and especially for the way you went about it! We were back to normal way faster than I would have dreamed possible after walking out to a wet garage, and we didn't feel like our situation had been compromised at all.

Our pilot light was broken on our water heater and I found Jay based on his yelp reviews. He responded to my call right away and took the time to hear what was wrong and talked about some options. He is an honest and friendly business owner and does all of the work himself. With Covid concerns he had me send pictures so he could do some research and work on his end before coming to my home. I was able to order parts from my warranty and once they arrived I called Jay. He was at my home with in and hour and half as he had promised. My hot water heater is working again and we were extremely pleased with our experience.

Two nights ago, when our boys were getting ready to shower, my wife said, "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that we don't have hot water." I tried to start it, which I know how to do, but no go. Yesterday morning, she called a few people after reading some reviews on Nextdoor and here. We decided on Jay because he's a member of the community where we live, and we like to support local businesses. Bonus when he said that he would be able to install one the same day. When he showed up, on time, he insisted on trying to get the (only 5 years old) heater to work. No go. We had already agreed to replace the heater, so he brought one with him. Two hours later, done. Did I mention that he was the least expensive? Price is not our sole criteria... We would recommend Jay to anyone with 100% confidence.

Our water heater started leaking and I did a quick Yelp search and luckily found Jay. He answered by first call, we communicated on the phone and via text to send pics/video of my problem. Water heater was well over 10 years old so we decided to replace it. He gave a competitive flat rate price and was there the next morning to replace it. No problems, great cleanup, friendly to boot! We're happy as can be. Never had a home repair go so seamlessly!

My water heater died and Jay installed a new one by next morning. He is a professional with years of experience. He did a fantistic job for a fair price. I highly recommend him to all.

It has been a rough week. Then today I hear the water heater in the garage dripping... I check it out and about 20 sq ft of my garage is wet. I call Jay at 3:30 on a Saturday afternoon, and I have a brand spanking new water heater installed by 6pm. I can't say enough nice things about this guy. Professional, efficient, and clearly hardworking considering he came to fix it late on a Saturday! Thanks again Jay!

Jay answered his phone on my first call, showed up on a Saturday within 35 minutes of my Rocklin home. He gave us several options for replacement of our water heater. Covid-19 actually helped us with our decision. Jay ran out for the heater and was back within an hour to install it. The install was very neat and clean. Jay was easy to deal with and we had zero issues. I recommend giving him a call.

Our water heater was leaking all over our garage and I called Jay and he got to us fast and fixed our water heater. He was very professional and did not try to sell us anything we did not need. I will recommend him to all friends who have an issue with their water heater.
