About Doctor Water Heater
Serving New Jersey Homeowners Since 1991
Meet Anthony Intile, Founder and Master Plumber
Anthony J. Intile Jr. has been a licensed plumbing contractor in New Jersey since 1986, holding Master Plumber License #36BI00847300. After years of working in the plumbing trade, Tony recognized that homeowners struggling with water heater emergencies had very few options for fast, honest, specialized service. Most general plumbers treated water heaters as an afterthought. Tony saw an opportunity to do it better.
In 1991, he founded Doctor Water Heater to fill that gap, building a company entirely around water heater expertise. Since day one, Tony has personally overseen every aspect of the business, from evaluating new equipment and training technicians to meeting with homeowners and inspecting completed installations. His hands-on approach and decades of field experience are the reason our customers trust us with their homes.
In 1989, Doctor Water Heater became an authorized Bradford White installer, a partnership that has continued for over 35 years. Bradford White is one of the most respected water heater manufacturers in the country, and our long-standing authorization reflects the quality and consistency of our work.














Our Team
Every technician at Doctor Water Heater is a licensed plumbing contractor in the state of New Jersey. We do not send unlicensed helpers, apprentices working alone, or subcontractors to your home. When a Doctor Water Heater technician arrives, you are getting someone who is fully trained, licensed, insured, and experienced with every type of residential water heater on the market today.

How We Work
We believe water heater service should be straightforward. When you call us, here is what you can expect:
- A real person answers the phone and listens to your situation.
- We schedule a visit at a time that works for you, often the same day for emergencies.
- Our technician inspects your system, explains what is going on in plain language, and gives you an honest recommendation on whether to repair or replace.
- You receive a clear, itemized quote before any work begins. No hidden fees, no pressure.
- We complete the work, test everything, clean up, and make sure you are completely satisfied before we leave.
If a repair makes more sense than a replacement, we will tell you. We do not push unnecessary work. Our reputation is built on trust, and that trust comes from giving homeowners honest answers, even when the honest answer is not the most expensive one.
