What Our Customers Say
Real reviews from real Queens neighbors
Called them at 11 PM when a pipe burst in my basement. They showed up within the hour and had it fixed before morning. Fair price and honest work. This is the plumber Astoria needs.
Maria G.
Astoria, NY
Our water heater died on a Sunday and Astoria Plumbers had a new one installed the same day. They explained everything clearly and the price was exactly what they quoted. Highly recommend.
James L.

Best plumber I've used in Queens. They snaked my main line and actually showed me the camera footage of what was causing the recurring clog. Fixed the real problem instead of just patching it.

Water Heater Repair & Installation FAQs
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
If your tank is over 10–12 years old, leaking, or producing rusty water, replacement is usually the better value. For newer units with a single failed component, a repair often makes sense. We'll give you a straight answer based on your specific unit.
How long does water heater installation take?
Most standard tank replacements are completed the same day. Tankless installations may take longer depending on gas line, venting, and electrical requirements.
Do you install tankless water heaters?
Yes. We install and service tankless water heaters and can help you decide if a tankless upgrade fits your home, hot water demand, and budget.
