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
Wondering if your water heater needs replacing?
These signs suggest it may be time to consider a new unit for your Barrington home. GEM provides honest evaluations so you can make the right decision.
Water heaters don’t last forever. Once yours reaches 10 to 12 years, components wear out and efficiency drops. Replacing before failure lets you plan the upgrade instead of reacting to an emergency.
Water or dampness around your water heater signals trouble. Even small leaks indicate tank corrosion that will only worsen. Catching this early and scheduling replacement prevents water damage to your home.
If your household used to have plenty of hot water but now runs out quickly, the tank is losing capacity. Sediment buildup and aging components reduce how much hot water your system can deliver. New water heater installation in Barrington restores the supply you need.
An aging water heater works harder to heat the same amount of water, using more energy in the process. If your bills have increased without other explanation, your water heater may be the reason. A new, efficient system brings those costs down.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Barrington
Choosing a new water heater means weighing different technologies and their advantages.
GEM helps you select and install the right system for your household. Here’s what we offer for Barrington homes:
Tankless units heat water on demand rather than storing a heated supply. Cold water flows through a heating element when you turn on a faucet, providing endless hot water without standby energy loss. These compact systems save space while reducing energy consumption. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Barrington for homeowners wanting efficiency and unlimited supply.
Tank-style heaters maintain a reservoir of heated water ready for immediate use. These reliable systems offer proven performance, straightforward installation, and various size options. Most Barrington families find traditional tanks deliver the consistent hot water they need for daily life.
Hybrid systems extract warmth from surrounding air to heat water, achieving efficiency far beyond conventional heaters. They maintain a tank of ready hot water while dramatically reducing energy use. Barrington homeowners focused on long-term savings and rebate eligibility often choose hybrid models.

Water Heater Installation FAQs
Does Rhode Island Energy offer incentives for water heater replacement?
They do, for qualifying high-efficiency models. The program offers rebates that can make upgrading to efficient equipment more affordable for Barrington homeowners. GEM helps you navigate the options and choose equipment that qualifies for maximum savings. We’re familiar with the current programs and can guide you through the application process.
Can GEM handle water heater emergencies in Barrington?
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency service throughout Barrington and the East Bay area. If your water heater fails unexpectedly, leaks, or poses a safety concern, call us immediately. Our technicians can respond quickly to assess the situation and get your hot water restored as soon as possible.
How do I know if my Barrington water heater needs replacing or just a repair?
The age of your system is the biggest factor. Water heaters in Barrington typically last 8 to 12 years, and once yours reaches that range, repairs often become a temporary fix for a system that’s fundamentally wearing out. If you’re facing a second or third repair call within a year, or if the tank itself is leaking, replacement almost always makes more financial sense. GEM’s technicians can inspect your system and give you an honest assessment of whether repair will actually solve the problem long-term.
What rebates are available for water heater installation in Barrington?
Rhode Island Energy offers rebates on qualifying high-efficiency water heaters, including heat pump models that can significantly reduce energy costs. The rebate amounts vary by equipment type, and eligibility requirements change periodically. GEM stays current on available incentives and helps Barrington homeowners identify which models qualify. We can also assist with the paperwork to make sure you capture available savings.
How much can I save with an efficient water heater?
That depends on your current equipment and usage, but the savings can be substantial. Upgrading from an older standard tank to a high-efficiency model typically reduces water heating costs by 10 to 20%. Switching to a heat pump water heater can cut costs in half. For a Barrington household spending $50 a month on water heating, that’s real money over the 10 to 15 year life of the equipment.
