Overview
Mr. Waterheater started in 1981 installing water heaters in
Pittsburgh, PA. The winning combination of competitive pricing,
unparalleled service and multi-media marketing were used to build a
successful specialty plumbing business. Expansion to other markets was
not the original plan of the founders of Mr. Waterheater, but is the
goal of this family owned business with three generations of plumbing
professionals.
The competitive environment in the plumbing industry combined with the public’s distrust of unscrupulous service providers was the backdrop for the development of the Mr. Waterheater brand and a better way of doing business. Mr. Waterheater is known for speed, integrity, ethics, low-cost pricing and unparalleled customer service.
Our company is run by people who understand what it takes to start a business from scratch and build it into a recognized and respected symbol of dependable, trusted service. We brought that experience and expertise to our franchise program and have a formula that is the best in the business.
