Why Homeowners Choose Our Team
When you are trusting someone with gas lines, venting, and your home’s hot water supply, qualifications matter. RPG Plumbing Services was founded by Pat Goad, a plumbing professional with more than 20 years of hands on experience. That background shapes how we plan each tankless project, from careful sizing to neat final installation.
Our credentials, such as Class A Contractor licensing, Master Plumber, and Master Gas Fitter certifications, are directly tied to the work involved in modern tankless systems. Tankless units often require adjustments to gas supply and venting, and those tasks must follow building codes and manufacturer requirements. Our licensed plumbers use those credentials every day to help keep your home safe.
We have been serving this area since 2015, and in that time we have helped thousands of customers with residential and commercial plumbing needs. Many of those calls involve restoring hot water as quickly and safely as possible. That local history means we are familiar with the way homes here are built and how utility spaces are laid out.
Is Tankless Right For Your Home
Before you commit to any new system, you need to know whether a tankless water heater truly fits your home and lifestyle. Tankless systems heat water on demand instead of storing it, which can provide virtually continuous hot water when sized correctly. They can also free up space compared to a large storage tank.
Not every home uses hot water in the same way. A smaller household that uses one shower at a time has very different needs from a busy family that runs multiple showers, a dishwasher, and a washing machine in the same hour. We look at how many fixtures you use at once, your preferred water temperature, and your existing gas or electrical service before recommending a tankless unit.
Homes in Virginia Beach often have a mix of older and newer construction. Some have compact closets or garages for mechanical equipment, while others have more open utility rooms. These details affect where a tankless heater can be mounted and how we route venting and water lines. Our team evaluates these factors during an on site visit so you do not have to guess.
Here are common signs a tankless system may be a good fit for your home:
- You frequently run out of hot water during back to back showers.
- Your current tank is old, leaking, or has needed several recent repairs.
- You want to save space in a closet, garage, or utility room.
- You plan to live in your home long enough to value long term efficiency and lifespan.
- Your home has natural gas service available, or you are open to electric options where suitable.
If you are not sure how your home measures up, we can help. During a visit, we review your existing water heater, measure hot water demand, and inspect gas lines, venting paths, and electrical panels. That assessment gives you a realistic picture of what a tankless upgrade would involve for your specific property.
Our Tankless Installation Process
Knowing what will happen in your home can make the decision to move forward much easier. Our tankless installation process is built around safety, clear communication, and minimizing disruption, whether you live in a newer subdivision or an older part of Virginia Beach with tighter spaces.
The process usually begins with a phone conversation and a visit from one of our licensed plumbers. During that visit, we inspect your existing heater, discuss how you use hot water, and confirm the size and type of tankless system that fits your needs. We then prepare a detailed estimate that includes equipment, labor, and any upgrades that may be needed for gas lines, venting, or electrical connections.
On installation day, our team arrives with the equipment and materials needed for your job. We protect nearby flooring and work areas, then shut down and disconnect the old water heater. If your project involves gas line adjustments or new venting, our Master Gas Fitter and trained plumbers handle that work in line with plumbing and mechanical codes used by the City of Virginia Beach.
Once the new tankless heater is mounted and connected to water, gas, power, and venting, we complete a series of tests. These include checking for leaks, confirming burner or heating performance, and verifying that hot water reaches your fixtures as expected. We aim to plan installation in a way that keeps the time without hot water as short as practical, although the exact timing depends on the complexity of your home’s setup.
Before we leave, we walk you through the unit’s controls, temperature settings, and basic maintenance steps, such as flushing and descaling. We also review any documentation from the manufacturer and our own paperwork, so you know how to contact us if you have questions after the installation.
