Avoid hot water tank installation & repair problems!

Installing or repairing a hot water tank can be costly if you don't know what you are doing.

Is your plumbing to code?

Plumbing that is not to code can delay work, or lead to costly plumbing problems in the future. Hire a licensed plumber with experience.

Is the workmanship professional?

Poor workmanship can lead to subpar results, and repairs sooner than necessary. Hire a plumber with an established reputation.

Is the work guaranteed?

Professional plumbing companies offer a guarantee/warranty. Ensure you hire a plumber that is willing to stand behind their work.

I needed a water line replacement and called several plumbers. All were very busy due to the weather this spring - including Vaillancourt - but they visited my home the same day I called. Their estimate was competitive and the final bill did not deviate from the estimate. Their workmanship was top-notch but what impressed me most was the constant phone calls to update me as the day for the work drew near. Brian ensured that I was constantly informed of his schedule with regards to my job. Excellent. I highly recommend them!
