Testimonials

Our water heater broke right before the MLK weekend. I found this company based on good reviews as well as their super service award from Angie’s List. I called them on the MLK day (Monday) and luckily they were open. Mike answered the phone and patiently asked about the details of the water heater. We were fortunate that the company had a new water heater in stock and Mike was able to schedule the installation on the same day. He and Vince came to install the water heater. They were courteous and efficient, and answered our questions about the water heater. They even identified and fixed a pinhole leak in a copper pipe at no additional charge. It was very much appreciated, especially considering the weather. I would highly recommend them!

I had my tankless water heater flushed and a condensate neutralizer installed. Ehrhardt charged me less than half of a quote from another company (which had scheduled and not shown up) and fixed several other issues on the spot. Great service and price and will definitely use again.

I wanted the anode on my hot water heater replaced. One plumber (Greenfox) said they do not replace anodes or do hot water heater maintence. Another, Ben Franklin, wanted $99 just to come out to give an estimate. Ehrhardt Brothers just asked me for a couple photos on email and provided a qoute, which was reasonbly priced. Install was done well and I am happy with the work.

I have used them in the past to run Gas lines to my dryer, and stove back in 2013. They did excellent work then so I went to them when my water heater started leaking. I was given a very competitive quote for a full replacement and haul away. The quality of their work was top notch, thanks again Rob. I was also pleased there was no hidden surprises or tacked on fees. DJ was very patient with me on the back and forth emails discussing my issue before they sent out a technician. I highly recommend their services.

New Hot Water heater installed by Ehrhardt Plumbing. Arrived as scheduled, explained what they were process, installed completed in short order. I recommend Ehrhardt Brothers Plumbing

Just had a great experience getting a new hot water heater installed from Ehrhardt Brothers. Tracy went the extra mile to quickly locate a special order unit, the crew was great, and the price was exactly half the amount of the other estimate we had. Honest, professional. Outstanding.

Just before going out of town our water heater decided to start leaking at the nozzle at the bottom on a Thursday afternoon. We called another plumbing company and they told us they couldn’t get us in until the next day and gave us a 730am-9pm window. By 1130 am Friday we had heard nothing from the other company so we gave Ehrhardt a call. Not an hour later Vince was there diganosing the situation and putting a temporary fix on the heater until we could get it replaced so we could go out of town and not worry about coming home to a flooded basement. The replacement was scheduled the day after we got back. They arrived within 30 minutes of the appt time and was done in just 2 or 3 hours. Could not have asked for a better experience, would recommend them hands down to anybody and will definitely call them again for our next plumbing situation.

Saved by Ehrhardt Brothers Quality Plumbing (a.k.a ColumbiaPlumbing)! (West of Baltimore) Sunday evening, our water felt less hot than usual. Monday, it was only as warm as we keep the house, and only as much water as there is in the pipes! Our gas water-heater failed! Bad timing, too. Last week was what Chicago calls Fools’-Spring … around 70°. But this week was back to Second-Winter, 30° (Mar 2026). And the next “Spring-of-Deception” is still ten days away. There was water leaking from the heater. This is considered the calm before the 50-gallon tsunami. If this is home-remedy advice, First call a friend who has successfully navigated this problem. Next shut off the gas and then the pilot. Next shut off the water inlet. Your friend will have at least one plumber to recommend. (They will enjoy that…) If your garden hose isn’t frozen to the spigot, drain the water tank. If frozen, spend a sleepless night with the 24/7 plumber’s number on speed-dial. We chose #2. We made it through the night. Two of our friend’s recommendations were small-businesses, our preference, and we asked all three for quotes and availability. Ehrhardt was ready to offer a price based on our descriptions and photos, of course with caveats for anything unexpected. I considered their bid to be a pretty-penny, but I’ll say it was less than our friend’s expectation, and more than our friend in Cleveland expected. A fair price. They came the next morning, and it might have been sooner if we had called right away. We cleared a path for them through the house, and they had the water heater replaced in 90min. Impressive. We went out for St. Pat’s. But what we should have done was what they told us: check the pilot light for about 30min, and test the hot water after 60 to 90min. We came home to cold water. I’ll admit some grumpiness. We called in the morning, and they came back in a jiffy (our apologies to everyone else who had appointments that day). In 30min, they figured it out: a faulty pilot in the new, just-unboxed water heater. They had a replacement part over-nighted. The next morning, in 30min, done. This time we did as told: checked the pilot after 20min (and nervously, an extra time again after that). Still lit! The second time we checked, and the hot water outlet was noticeable warm. By 60min, hot water from the faucets! By 90min, much to relief of nearly everyone i know, a piping hot shower. AAAAAHHH 🙂 Ok, so how does three visits equal 5-stars! The hardest question answered first: Because the problem was the manufacturer’s fault, and Ehrhardt handled it flawlessly: Excellent communication by Ehrhardt, priority attention to our problem, no excuses, just fast resolution. Great service staff, from the office to my house. Fair price. I admit that I’m writing this in the after-glow of that hot shower. This could be the start of a beautiful situationship. ❤️

We had Ehrhardt replace our water heater as well as take care of several other jobs involving rerouting, valve replacements and a PRV replacement. They arrived right on time and got to work. They took care to protect carpet etc where they were working heavily. All the work was approximately 4 hours which seemed very reasonable to me. They offered a discount on labor since we took care of other work with the water heater replacement. The water heater replacement was a set price which came in right in line with other quotes I was provided by area plumbers. (I had quotes from 4 plumbers and they were all within about $100 of one another.) This work was performed back in March and no issues have arisen. Very happy with the work and will use again and definitely recommend.
