My wife's family was in town for a visit, when we noticed water pouring out of the garage. Argh, our water heater broke. Perfect timing as usual! So, I signed up for an offer through one of these online services that recommend local plumbers, explaining that I would need work done right away. The result, flakes! I got 1 call back, 5 hours later, and the woman said they can't come out until the next day.
I searched some more on the internet and found this company in San Francisco. The plumber was over in less than an hour, and within 3 hours, we were up and running again. Absolutely top notch!
