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

Here’s how to tell if your water heater is failing.

Our technicians see these issues regularly. Here’s what they mean for Warwick homeowners considering repair vs. replacement.

Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years. If yours is in that range or older, efficiency has likely declined and a breakdown could happen any day. Replacing proactively means you choose when it happens, not your water heater.

Rusty or discolored hot water often means corrosion inside the tank. While a failing anode rod can sometimes be replaced, rust in an older system usually signals the tank itself is deteriorating. New water heater installation in Warwick restores clean, clear hot water.

If your water heater used to bounce back quickly but now takes hours to reheat, sediment buildup or failing components are reducing capacity. When flushing no longer helps, water heater replacement in Warwick is the fix.

Strange sounds during heating cycles usually indicate sediment has hardened at the bottom of the tank. This forces the system to work harder and can eventually cause cracks. When flushing doesn’t quiet the noise, replacement makes more sense than waiting for failure.

We Install All Types of Water Heaters in Warwick

Water heater technology offers several options, each with characteristics suited to different situations.

GEM helps Warwick homeowners evaluate these choices and installs the system that works best. Here’s what’s available:

Tankless technology heats water on demand as it passes through the unit rather than storing a heated supply. This delivers unlimited hot water while eliminating the energy waste of maintaining tank temperature. Compact tankless units fit easily in beach cottages and homes with limited utility space. GEM installs tankless water heaters in Warwick for homeowners seeking efficiency and endless supply.

Tank-style heaters maintain a reservoir of heated water available whenever you need it. These systems offer proven reliability, reasonable installation costs, and multiple size options. For most Warwick families, traditional tanks provide the dependable performance their households require.

Hybrid water heaters extract heat from ambient air to warm water instead of generating heat directly. This technology achieves efficiency levels far exceeding conventional heaters while keeping a tank of hot water ready. Warwick homeowners focused on minimizing energy costs and maximizing rebate opportunities often select hybrid models. GEM installs these efficient systems throughout the city.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

What size water heater do I need for my Warwick 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 Warwick 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.

How does GEM determine what capacity water heater my household needs?

We look at several factors specific to your Warwick home: how many people live there, number of bathrooms, whether you have high-flow showerheads or standard fixtures, and when your peak usage occurs. A household where everyone showers in the morning has different needs than one where usage is spread throughout the day. We also consider your existing infrastructure since upgrading from a 40-gallon to an 80-gallon tank may require electrical or venting modifications.

How are water heaters warranted?

Tank water heaters include manufacturer warranties typically ranging from 6 to 12 years on the tank. GEM reviews warranty coverage with Warwick homeowners as part of the selection process.

How do I maintain my new water heater?

Annual flushing to remove sediment buildup extends water heater life and maintains efficiency. The anode rod should be checked every few years and replaced when depleted since it protects the tank from corrosion. GEM’s Home Comfort Club includes maintenance visits that handle these tasks. For Warwick homes with hard water, more frequent flushing may be beneficial.

Can I get same-day water heater installation?

In most cases, yes. GEM maintains a large fleet of service trucks throughout the Kent County area, and we stock common water heater sizes so we can respond to emergencies quickly. If your water heater fails in the morning, we can often have a new one installed by afternoon. Call us and we’ll let you know what’s available for your Warwick location that day.
