"ALERT: I BELIEVE THIS COMPANY IS AFTER INSURANCE DOLLARS AND WASN'T CONCERNED ABOUT CORRECTING THE REAL ISSUE. Drain King Plumbing in Pompano Beach came to my house to provide me with an estimate because the land next to the side of my home felt like a sinkhole was forming. Steven McKeehan, owner of Drain King Plumbing, diagnosed me with a leak. He stated that it probably would be an insurable claim. I was clear with him that not everything is an insurable claim and try to prevent an insurance claim. After my comment he ran a “test” on my indoor plumbing and asked my husband and I to leave the room, my kitchen and laundry room ended up flooded and I was forced to call in a restoration company. He called in his recommendation, Restoration 1, because it was 6PM in the evening and he told me it had to be taken care of now (I will do a review for them because their business practices are horrible too). Steven sent me a quote for $50,000 and wanted the 25% deposit of $12,500. His quote was written expressly for an insurance claim. The bill was 97% access and egress which insurance companies are obligated to pay. We didn’t sign his quote because we got a second inspection and estimate. It turns out that Steven misdiagnosed the issue for my house because I don't have an indoor leak (we had one minor leak on the outside plumbing), but a terrible backfill issue underneath our home which isn’t an insurable claim. In addition, if I had Steve do his work and ignored the real issue, my house may have gone underground. After the fact, Steven did try to claim that his manager did the quote and it should have been $23,500. I don’t believe him because he is the one who called and asked for the deposit. If he really believed it shouldn’t have been $50,000, then why did he ask for a 25% deposit at the cost of $12,500. A business man should know that $12,500 is 25% of $50,000 not $23,500. By the way, the reason we contacted this company was because a good friend of our family works for the company and is Steven’s girlfriend."

"This company was recommended by a friend who said they are really good because my water heater was leaking. So I texted Allen on this past Sunday and he responded ON A SUNDAY!!! I spoke with him on the phone the following day (Monday) and he scheduled my installation for the next day (Tuesday). Allen assigned Rodrigo to do the installation; he and his assistant did a fine job!! These guys know their craft, and they are professional and personable. They changed out the fittings too—the water lines connections-brand new copper fittings and silver lines. Nice clean job. I am so happy. I would use them for other services and highly recommend."

Water heater services FAQs
The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.
Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.
It usually takes a professional water heater installer between two and three hours to remove an existing water heater and install a new tank heater. However, it could take four to five hours if they have to work in a small utility closet or another tight area, like a crawl space. Tankless water heaters have a more complicated installation process, so they will take a bit longer. Additionally, a gas water heater requires a connection to a gas line, and that alone can add about an hour to the installation timeline compared to installing an electric water heater.
It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.
In most municipalities, a license is not mandatory for water heater installation or replacement. However, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed plumber or water heater installer to handle the work. Licensed installers are far less likely to make a mistake during the installation, which means paying for the experience decreases your risk of a leak and other issues. You can use our state licensing tool to find out if a contractor you’re considering in your area holds a plumber’s license.
