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.


How to Know When You Need a New Water Heater Installed

These symptoms mean your water heater may be done.

Here’s what West Warwick homeowners need to know. These symptoms often indicate your water heater won’t last much longer.

Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years with proper care. If yours is in that age range or older, efficiency has dropped and failure could come any time. Replacing now gives you control over the timing.

Rust or corrosion visible on the outside of your water heater usually means worse conditions inside. Once corrosion sets in, tank failure is a matter of time. Replacing before a leak occurs prevents water damage.

If showers are getting cut short or you’re running out of hot water during normal use, your tank may be losing capacity. Sediment buildup and aging components reduce how much hot water the system can deliver.

Metallic or sulfur odors coming from your hot water indicate problems inside the tank. Bacteria growth or a failing anode rod are common causes. In older systems, these issues often mean replacement is the better path forward.

Water Heater Installation FAQs

What maintenance does a water heater need?

Regular maintenance includes annual flushing to remove sediment, periodic anode rod inspection, and checking the pressure relief valve. These simple tasks extend equipment life and maintain efficiency. Many West Warwick homeowners find it easier to have GEM handle maintenance through our Home Comfort Club, which includes scheduled service visits and priority scheduling if problems arise.

What size water heater do I need for my West 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 West 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 much does water heater installation cost in West Warwick?

Installation costs vary based on equipment selection, any modifications your home requires, and installation complexity. A basic tank replacement in an accessible location costs less than a tankless installation requiring electrical upgrades or a basement installation with limited access. GEM provides upfront pricing so you know the total cost before we begin work.

How quickly can GEM install a new water heater at my West Warwick home?

Most installations are completed in a single visit, typically two to four hours for a straightforward tank replacement. Our technicians serving West Warwick arrive prepared with equipment and parts to handle the job efficiently. We know you need hot water, so we work without unnecessary delays while still doing the job right.

How long do water heaters typically last?

Standard tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years with proper maintenance. Tankless units can last 20 years or more. Factors that affect lifespan include water quality in your West Warwick home, how hard the unit works, and whether maintenance tasks like flushing and anode rod replacement are performed. GEM’s Home Comfort Club helps extend equipment life through regular maintenance.
