"I was very pleased with your work performed by Stan and his son. They were on time, professional, and explained everything to me before they left. They went over everything with me to make sure I was happy with their work. I would definitely recommend them and I’ll call them again for all my plumbing needs in the future."

"Paul and T. J. were courteous and competent. Not only did they replace the leaking pipe, but they also rerouted it so that I wouldn't have that problem again. They changed a light bulb that had burned out and cleaned up the mess the leaking pipe had caused. I recommend them highly."

"Stan called the same day I requested a quote. After accepting his quote he arrives the next day. He was delayed on a job but kept me posted as to when he would arrive. After he installed my water line the pvc pipe busted I believe by no faul of his own. He came the same day I called and took care of the problem. Nice job Stan. Thank you!"

"It went terrific, I was kinda nervous at first because my house is very old and my water heater was in very bad shape. The guys came in and did a wonderful job. Couldn’t even tell they were there and only charged me 850 dollars. They cleaned up all messes made by installation and even looked at my kitchen sink for me to see why I was getting bad pressure. 10/10 would reccomend."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Every city and state will have its own set of installation codes and laws. Some won’t require you to obtain a permit before replacing your water heater, though we recommend you do, regardless of the local codes. On the other hand, some cities and states might require secondary permits for plumbing and electrical work related to the installation. Check with a local water heater installation company and local building codes to confirm which permits are required and what the specific laws are.

The average cost to install a new water heater is approximately $1,300, with a typical price range between $880 and $1,800. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type and size of the unit, its location and accessibility, and the amount of labor required. For example, installing a unit in a tight space like a crawl space can increase labor costs. The type of water heater significantly impacts the price: while a conventional gas heater might cost less than $1,000, tankless models can cost around $2,600 to install (and up to $3,500), and solar heaters can cost upwards of $3,700. Other factors that can affect the total price include the fuel type, vent system requirements, permits, and whether any additional plumbing work or repairs from previous water heater damage are needed.

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

If your system is not vented properly, you could experience what’s called backdrafting. Backdrafting is when your ventilation system isn’t working as it should, and instead of releasing gases outside, they get trapped inside your home. 

Gas and propane water heaters create a few types of combustion gases, but the most dangerous is carbon monoxide. If there’s too much build-up of these gases inside your home, it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Unusual noises, lack of hot water supply, efficiency loss, and visible leaks are signs of necessary replacement beyond mere repair.
