Richland Customers on Joyce
5.0 ★ · 6 Reviews"I've used Father Daughter Plumbing on several occasions for replacing water heaters, faucets, and pipe repairs. Aside from being responsive and knowledgeable, Joyce was well prepared and very thorough. For my water heater replacement the system required additional items to meet code — Joyce had them stocked and was efficient in getting our house back up and running promptly. Plumbing is one of my least favorite repairs, and using Father Daughter has been a lifesaver — responsive, experienced solutions with a reasonable price tag!"
"Father Daughter Plumbing is my fave! Great response time and prices for my personal and rental properties for some years now. Father Daughter has fixed me up inside, outside, and under my house too! Today was a too-high water-pressure issue. I just won't bother with anyone else!"
Water Heater Installation & Replacement FAQs in Richland
How long does a typical water heater installation take?
A standard tank water heater replacement is typically completed within 3 to 4 hours, including draining and removing the old tank, making required code updates, strapping, and testing.
Should I replace or repair my aging water heater?
If your tank is over 10 years old or the tank body itself is leaking, replacement is almost always the safest and most cost-effective option. If it's a minor thermostat or heating element issue on a younger unit, we will give you an honest repair option.
Do you pull required local permits for water heater replacements?
Yes. Father Daughter Plumbing ensures every installation meets current state and local building codes for safety, venting, and pressure protection.
