Responsive and committed… our needs are met and the work is professional. As good as it comes… note: I’m writing this in a cool, comfortable setting now. 😁
I am very pleased with ALex's service. He is knowledgeable and polite.
The technician arrived. He came in and diagnosed the problem with my ductless system. He was able to get my system functioning, even though he didn’t have the pot needed to be replaced so temporarily we can run the system as it is he did he did his job by diagnosing the issue and doing a temporary fix?
I called GEM for a weekend, short notice pipe repair, and everyone was great from Hendry who I spoke to on the phone, to the two technicians Alec and Danny. They worked quickly, communicated clearly, and worked with me to come up with a solution I was happy with the price and result of. I would definitely call them in the future when things pop up.
Can’t say enough good things about Gem Plumbing and Thomas in particular. I easily got a came day appointment, Thomas the tech was here in the agreed upon window, provided 2 alternative estimates and once we selected, he completed the job right away – no need to make another appointment and come back another day. Great work, and even better service!
Fast and knowledgeable service technicians.
William and Mark were excellent! They explained everything that they were doing and included us through the whole process. Would recommend them highly.
Very prompt and professional service!
The service provided by Mark and his partner was incredible. They took the time to explain all details of the situation and even helped make a call to a remediation company. They cleaned up after themselves and were very easy to discuss the repair process with.
Always a pleasure, professional expert service. Solving any problem simple or difficult!
Came even late at night to make sure we had working air conditioning
The team that installed the unit (Luis Herrera Mezquita Et al) was very professional and explained things thoroughly. I would highly recommend 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.
