You’ve already accepted it’s time. Here’s what moving forward actually delivers.

That old unit has been costing you extra on every utility bill. New water heaters use less energy for the same output—savings start immediately.

I know we had snafus getting you guys over here but Aaron showed up today and found out what the problem was corrected it and he also went above and below at the exact right time when I was asking him a question he came down on the ground and grabbed a bolt and helped put up the differential cover that I was working on By starting a couple of bolts! Also, I would like to thank Morgan in the call center for not only getting somebody here today but a supervisor, nice job, thanks again.
Christopher, was great he came to do what he had to do. He got a job done. And I'm very pleased with her, thank you, Chris.
I have used Gem in the past for both plumbing and electrical issues. This time it was a blocked kitchen drain. Turns out it was more than a blocked drain in the PVC under the sink. Nicholas snaked the entire line (down to the basement) to clear out grease and "gunk" that has been literally decades in the making. Because of how this job was handled and because of how the tech talked to me, I am contracting to replace the VERY old 1950's era cast iron pipes in my home.

UPDATE: Work was quickly scheduled. Nicholas arrived today and completed the work. It was a big job. Excellent work.
Chris and Anthony were polite considerate and professional in knowing their jobs and sharing important information concerning our unit.
I really appreciate the honest and integrity in handling our issues. Made us feel confident in our decision making. Very professional but yet personable.

Got a problem with your well pump not working? Not a problem! Call Gem plumbing & heating services. Our 100’ deep well finally lived out its life and stopped working. Not a pleasant experience when suddenly you have to get water somewhere and start filling up buckets. I called on Saturday and they came by within a few hours. They checked the pressure tank first then the well. They came back Monday and installed the new pump. I couldn’t have asked for better service! They were there when I needed them!

Water Heater Replacement FAQs

How quickly can GEM install my new water heater?

Two to four hours for most jobs. Same-day scheduling is frequently available since you already know replacement is needed. Tankless conversions take longer if venting or gas line work is required.

Should I choose a tank or tankless water heater?

Depends on usage, space, and budget. Tanks cost less upfront and suit most households fine. Tankless costs more initially but provides unlimited hot water and typically lasts longer. Our plumbers can talk through what makes sense for your Halifax home.

What rebates are available through Mass Save?

Mass Save offers rebates on qualifying high-efficiency water heaters, including heat pump models. GEM identifies eligible equipment and helps with the application.

Does GEM remove my old water heater?

Yes. Disconnection and removal are included. You don’t need to arrange disposal separately.
