How do I know when to replace my water heater in New London?

Phoenician Plumbing provides free replacement estimates so you can make an informed decision about unit type and budget.

Do I need a permit to replace my water heater in New London, CT?

Most New London jurisdictions in CT require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance.

Can I replace my tank water heater with a tankless unit in New London?

Yes. Phoenician Plumbing converts tank water heater systems to tankless in New London, CT.

What Our Customers Say

Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Phoenician Plumbing for their plumbing needs.

★★★★★

"Called for a clogged kitchen drain I had been fighting for weeks. The plumber came out, cleared it completely with hydro-jetting, and even showed me what was causing the blockage. Professional from start to finish."

— Patricia Nguyen
★★★★★

"Sewer line was backing up into my basement drain. They ran a camera and found tree roots 40 feet in. Hydro-jetted it clean and it has been flowing perfectly for months. Thorough diagnosis saved me a costly replacement."

— Greg Ostrowski
★★★★★

"They did a great job on short notice. The plumber came out even earlier than expected and spent the entire day fixing the original problems, laying new pipes, and then fixing new leaks when the water was turned on. I wish more companies had this work ethic and attention to detail."

— Lisa Hamilton
