What Our Customers Are Saying
100% Satisfaction Guarantee
We found roots growing in an old, 2-foot, cast-iron section of my main drainage pipe.
He used a blade attachment and cleared the obstruction to the best of his ability. Then left me with a quote to have the 2-foot section of cast iron replaced with PVC—which is only a small section that penetrated the foundation of my home.
I was very happy with the service, and most importantly the transparent approach which allowed me to make informed decisions.
Nate’s customer service skills were out of this world. I advise GEM Plumbing to invest in this young man.
I had two whole house central AC units replaced (19 yrs old) and their team and other parts of the company (Plumbling, electrical, etc.) worked together to do an unbelieable installation in very hot conditions. My hats off to your company and we are so impressed that I contracted GEM to install a whole house 25kw generator.

It was super easy booking online The next day the dispatcher, (unfortunately I don’t know her name) called to offer an earlier appointment. She was very polite and kind.
My whole transaction was smooth and pleasant from start to finish!
How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed
Some water heater issues can be fixed with a simple repair, but others mean it’s time for a full replacement.
Here’s how to tell when your Providence home needs a new water heater.
Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years with proper care. If yours is in that age range or older, efficiency has dropped and failure could come any time. Replacing now gives you control over the timing.
Rust or corrosion visible on the outside of your water heater usually means worse conditions inside. Once corrosion sets in, tank failure is a matter of time. Replacing before a leak occurs prevents water damage.
If showers are getting cut short or you’re running out of hot water during normal use, your tank may be losing capacity. Sediment buildup and aging components reduce how much hot water the system can deliver.
Metallic or sulfur odors coming from your hot water indicate problems inside the tank. Bacteria growth or a failing anode rod are common causes. In older systems, these issues often mean replacement is the better path forward.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Providence
Today’s water heaters offer various technologies to match different household needs and preferences.
GEM helps Providence homeowners navigate these choices and install the right system. Here’s what we offer:
Tankless systems heat water instantly as it flows through the unit, eliminating the need for stored hot water. This approach provides unlimited supply while reducing energy waste from standby heating. The compact design suits Providence’s space-challenged row houses and apartments where utility closets are tight. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Providence for homeowners wanting efficiency and endless hot water.
Conventional tank heaters store a ready supply of heated water for immediate use whenever you turn on a faucet. Available in multiple sizes and fuel types, these systems offer reliability and affordable installation. Most Providence households find traditional tanks deliver the consistent performance they need for daily life.
Hybrid units pull heat from surrounding air rather than generating it directly, achieving remarkable efficiency gains. A storage tank ensures hot water availability even during high-demand periods. Providence homeowners interested in maximizing savings and qualifying for rebates often select hybrid systems. GEM installs these advanced water heaters throughout the city.

Can I install a new water heater myself?
Installing a water heater yourself is not recommended due to safety risks and code requirements. A licensed professional from GEM will ensure your water heater installation is done safely, efficiently, and in compliance with local regulations.
