Nate came out first thing in the morning to help with my clogged sewer main. He was very professional and kind. He explained everything with no difficulty and offered multiple cost-tiered options. Mainly whether we would utilize a camera in the process of snaking the main. I appreciated being offered the option. We went with the camera process. So we could fully diagnose the issue, and determine if this would be a recurring problem.
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 PVCโ€”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.
Nateโ€™s customer service skills were out of this world. I advise GEM Plumbing to invest in this young man.

Incredible company.
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.

I was able to schedule an appointment for the next day. The technician was great. Chris went over everything that needed to be done and explained it clearly. Very professional. He was also able to offer a discount and waived the fee for the service call. When I reviewed the bill that night, there was an error and the fee hadnโ€™t been waived. When I called Gem the next day, they saw the error and immediately corrected it. Said the refund would be put on my credit card. Very happy with the service.

I am very happy with my well water pump service. David Chapman and his associate were professional, friendly and respectful. David showed me how to change my filter for which I am truly grateful.
It was super easy booking online The next day the dispatcher, (unfortunately I donโ€™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

These symptoms suggest your water heater is near the end.

Glocester homes often have water heaters showing these warning signs. GEM provides honest evaluations to help you decide.

Water heaters typically last 8 to 12 years before needing replacement. If yours is at the older end of this range or beyond it, the system is likely losing efficiency and could fail at any time. Replacing it now helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns.

Water pooling near your water heater means the tank is corroding from inside. Once leaking starts, it cannot be fixed. New water heater installation in Glocester should happen quickly to prevent damage to your home.

When your water heater takes longer to heat water or never reaches the temperature you set, internal components are failing. Sediment and worn parts reduce heating capacity. Replacement restores proper performance.

Loud sounds from your water heater indicate sediment has hardened at the tank bottom. This buildup reduces efficiency and stresses the system. If flushing doesn’t eliminate the noise, water heater replacement in Glocester is the next step.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Glocester

Today’s water heaters offer several technologies, each suited to different situations.

GEM helps Glocester homeowners evaluate options and install the right system. Here’s what’s available:

Tankless systems heat water on demand rather than storing it. Cold water flows through and emerges hot when you turn on a faucet. This provides unlimited supply while eliminating standby energy waste. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Glocester for homeowners wanting efficiency and endless hot water.

Conventional tanks keep a reservoir of heated water ready whenever you need it. These reliable systems offer proven performance, reasonable costs, and multiple size options. Most Glocester families find tank heaters deliver dependable daily performance.

Hybrid technology captures warmth from surrounding air to heat water, achieving efficiency levels far exceeding conventional heaters. They maintain a tank of ready hot water while dramatically reducing energy use. Glocester homeowners focused on long-term savings often select hybrid models.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

Should I get a gas or electric water heater for my Glocester home?

That often depends on what’s already in your home. If you have natural gas service and existing gas lines to your water heater location, a gas unit typically offers faster recovery times and lower operating costs. If you’re electric-only, an electric water heater or heat pump model avoids the expense of running new gas lines. GEM evaluates your Glocester home’s infrastructure and helps you choose the option that makes practical and financial sense.

What size water heater do I need for my Glocester home?

The right size depends on your household’s actual hot water usage, not just your home’s square footage. A family of four in Glocester typically needs a 40 to 50 gallon tank, while a couple might be fine with 30 gallons. GEM’s technicians consider peak usage times, like when everyone’s getting ready in the morning, and recommend a size that meets your demand without wasting energy heating water you won’t use. We’ll size your system based on how your family actually lives.

What’s the difference between gas and electric water heaters?

Gas water heaters typically heat water faster and cost less to operate if you have natural gas service. Electric models are simpler to install and maintain, and don’t require venting. Heat pump electric models are highly efficient but need adequate space around them. For Glocester’s antique homes, farmhouses, and wooded properties, the best choice depends on your existing utilities and installation location. GEM can advise which makes sense for your specific situation.

I’m not sure what size tank my family needs. How do you figure that out?

GEM’s technicians assess your household’s hot water demands during the consultation. We ask about family size, bathing habits, whether you run the dishwasher and washing machine simultaneously, and what your busiest times are. For Glocester’s antique homes, farmhouses, and wooded properties, we often recommend 40 to 50 gallon tanks for families of three to four, but we customize recommendations based on your actual usage patterns rather than applying a one-size-fits-all formula.

Are high-efficiency water heaters worth the extra cost?

For most Glocester homeowners, yes. High-efficiency models cost more upfront but reduce monthly energy bills, often paying for themselves within a few years. Heat pump water heaters in particular can cut water heating costs by 50% or more compared to standard electric tanks. Combined with Rhode Island Energy rebates, the net cost difference shrinks significantly while the savings continue for the life of the equipment.
