What our clients are saying

Debra deNoyelles

We called about getting a new water heater after the shock of an outrageously cold shower on a weekend. After a few pictures back and forth with Mike, we had a new water heater installed within days, and just below the estimated price. I wholeheartedly recommend Norblom as great, local and reliable plumbers.

Response from the owner:Thank you, Debra! We're glad Mike could help quickly and that everything went smoothly. We appreciate your kind words and recommendation.

Michael Wawersich provided me with a thorough, thoughtful quote - he laid out all the options available for me in a really low pressure manner. Would highly recommend for quality of service

Response from the owner:Thanks, Steven! We’re happy to hear Michael provided a clear and low-pressure experience. Your recommendation means a lot!

D W

Thanks to plumber Stuart Kane who helped us through a couple of issues after a water heater installation in a 49 year old home. Stuart is a pleasant experienced guy who is methodical and thorough, and still gets things done quickly. He's also articulate and patient enough to explain things in consumer language, and tell us what we need to know going forward. Thanks!

Response from the owner:Thank you, D W! We're so glad Stuart was able to help and explain everything clearly. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. Much appreciated!

Yohann Charlet

Norblom replaced our water heater right away when it started leaking and we had to shut the water off completely. They were extremely responsive, communicated well with us during the work, and did a great job.

Response from the owner:Hi Yohann Charlet, seeing that you had a 5-Star experience is the best thing we could hope for! Your review means a lot to us. Thank you for choosing Norblom Plumbing

Todd Baer

“I would like to thank Norblom Plumbing for making a troublesome day very comforting & a pleasant experience! Their professionalism started with the office staff, keeping me updated throughout the service call. Richard (plumber) was courteous, polite and professional. My entire experience with Norblom was top notch and would undoubtedly recommend.

Response from the owner:Dear Todd Baer, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this excellent review. We really appreciate your business. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you in the future. -Norblom Plumbing

Andrew Herrick

My dad thought he had a water heater problem. Turns out it was plumbing. I called Norblom and even though I was not very literate in the trades, they were able to work with me. Stuart was over within 30 minutes and fixed the problem in under an hour. Extremely polite, respectful and knowledgeable. The price was extremely reasonable. I wish I could give more than 5 starts. Out of this world service.

Response from the owner:Hi Andrew Herrick, seeing that you had a 5-Star experience is the best thing we could hope for! Your review means a lot to us. Thank you for choosing Norblom Plumbing

Laura Haynor

They did our basement finish project with wet bar and full bath in 2020 and then in 2024 our primary bath remodel plus add on half bath. They are wonderful to work with. I wouldn't hire anyone else. Always promptly on time when they say they will show up, very good experienced plumbers. The plumbers knew the questions to ask especially for me who was DIYing most of these projects and chose to hire out plumbing. As someone with no experience in construction they were so helpful and knowledgeable. Came up with many great solutions to accommodate my desired floor plans. Very professional. Absolutely would recommend them to anyone.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Laura, for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience with Norblom Plumbing! It means the world to us to know that you were pleased with our service. We strive to provide exceptional care to every customer, and your appreciation truly inspires us. We look forward to the opportunity to assist you again in the future. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need anything!

Tankless Water Heaters

Norblom Plumbing is proud to supply Rinnai Tankless water heaters which are proven to show improved performance and reliability over regular water heaters.

The major benefits of tankless water heaters:

Endless supply of hot water – an on demand water heater means hot water whenever you need it
Take up less space in your home – more compact tanks which can fit in laundry rooms, and closets
Energy efficient – use 40% less energy also leading to slashed energy bills
Longer product life – up to twice the life span of a traditional tank

Common Water Heater Issues

Norblom Plumbing can troubleshoot problems with your tankless water heater, regular water heater, or anywhere along the line in your current system. We can address:

Damaged thermostat – the thermostat, or gas control valve, is responsible for keeping the water in your tank at a certain temperature. When it isn’t working, your water may be too cool or too hot.
Damaged pilot light – gas powered water heaters depend on the pilot light to function properly. If yours is damaged, you’ll need professional repair.
Leaking water heaters – a leaking tank can affect the efficiency of your water system.

If you’re unsure of what’s causing your water heater to act up, simply give us a call. By asking a few questions and seeing a picture of your water heater’s current condition, we’ll be able to give you a phone quote on water heater repairs or replacement.

Water Heater Installation

If your water heater is acting up, we can assess the problem so you won’t have to put up with leaks or damaged thermostats which cause your water to be too hot or cold. Norblom Plumbing also supplies tankless water heaters by Rinnai which are more energy efficient and boast a longer product life. Explore on demand water heater usage, or find a tank that suits your current needs. We’ll help you find just the right one.
