Whitcher Plumbing & Heating
Thank you for contacting us. One of our customer service representatives will be in touch shortly to schedule your appointment. How do you know when to call a plumber for hot water heater issues?

Most problems will require a licensed professional - strange noises coming from your water heater, rusty water coming from water heater, low hot water pressure, no hot water, water heater is leaking, or the pilot light will not stay lit (for gas heaters).These are all common issues which will require the help of a licensed plumbing or HVAC technician.

We service all brands of residential and commercial water heaters. Unlike traditional tank style water heaters, tankless water heaters only heat water when you need it. Tankless heaters produce a continuous flow of hot water, giving you endless hot water to all your appliances and fixtures simultaneously.

At Whitcher Plumbing & Heating our philosophy is to provide up front pricing so you are not surprised by unexpected charges. We offer flat-rate pricing and don't "charge by the hour." No matter how long it takes us to complete your plumbing job the investment will not change. Upon providing all of this in writing, the authorized technician can usually begin the work at your convenience.

Bio-Clean is a mixture of friendly bacteria & enzymes that actually EATS the waste that clogs drains and septic systems. In nature all animal & vegetable matter is broken down & recycled into plant food by enzymes & bacteria. Bio-Clean uses this same principle to biodegrade organic waste that accumulates in your plumbing system.
Your home's sewer pipes are built to handle the nasty stuff, but they are no match for tree roots! Over time, sewer pipes can crack or joints can separate causing entry points for aggressive thirsty roots. Once the roots get into the sewer pipe they can block the flow causing expensive nasty backups or even sewer pipe replacement.

Our hot water heater went out on a weekend (of course), and their emergency services allowed us to get a replacement the same day. The service tech was Dan, and he was terrific, absolutely the kind of employee you wish worked for you (which, in a sense, he did). Whitcher Plumbing is now my Go-To plumbing company of choice.

Whitcher reached out to me and answered my question. Thanks.
I have had them perform repairs in the past and they did the plumbing contracting on my Mothers new house back in 2001 in Tecumseh and did an excellent job. I have also purchased a few water heaters from them (via Adrian Hdwe) at my other homes when they were in the same building as Adrian Hardware.
I recently (2x) in the last 9 months inquired about buying a water heater from them to relace one getting old at one of my properties since they sell Bradford White and those are made here in Michigan.
I had problems

Dan came out to help me with a clog in my main line twice. He was patient and knowledgeable. I would recommend Whitcher to my friends.
I also love the cleaning powder that they offer. It really works great for my septic system.

Made the appointment with a lovely woman in the office she said Dan would be out. He and James showed up promptly, provided a quote and got to work installing a new kitchen sink and faucet. Super professional went above and beyond with my problematic countertop. Would highly recommend this team to take good care of any plumbing needs that is for sure.

Whitcher Plumbing & Heating went above and beyond helping me. My water heater had been red tagged by Citizens gas. The office girls helped me so much (thank you Shari) and the service tech (TJ)did his job as quickly as he possibly could. You have no idea how much your kindness helped me calm down. Thank you all so very much!!!!!

I had problems with my furnace at the end of December. Whitcher came out and looked at it and told me I would need a new one. Mine was forty years old so it was time. Within the next week, I had a new furnace and air conditioner.
Dena was the first person I spoke with. She was extremely friendly and efficient with getting my information to the right person and scheduling appointments for me. Andrew helped me with the financing, he was awesome. He was efficient, patient and timely due to me needing a new furnace quickly in the beginning of January. Nate was the technician that installed the unit

Whitcher Plumbing gave us a good price for a furnace, air conditioner and hot water heater. The installment guys were top notch and it was completed in a timely manner. Would highly recommend!

A problem was created by a washer drain cleaning and now it has created a larger problem and they refuse to even come out and I now have a basement with standing water. It is after hours and no one is available. They do not stand behind their work.

Because in my opinion they are just the best there is. After a repair on our ancient Boiler (Furnace) in December, I decided to have a brand new one put in. BTW, this decision was not due to some high pressure sales pitch by Whitcher. As the tech (and I'm sorry I forgot his name, comes with advancing age I guess, because he was really outstanding)… was finishing up, I ask him about the idea of replacing the Boiler. He said that while it was very old, it was still pretty solid and that it could possibly run for years to come. Of course he said it wasn't very efficient, which I already new
