"Could not get a firm price over the phone but agreed to the $ 89.00 minimum charge for them to come out and estimate with the understanding that, worst case, I could apply the $ 89.00 to just the haul away portion of the job. Once the technician wanted over $ 1,000 more than the $ 1,595 "base price" originally discussed to install the new water heater, (which was more than $ 700 more than another company had already quoted me), I said let's just do the haul away of the old one, and the technician said "we are an all-or-nothing-company" and that he would not haul away the old unit if I was not having the new one installed. I said that was not what was told to me on the phone and the technician said they record all their calls and he had "played the tapes" of my calls before he came. A strange claim, but okay, so I said "play the tape again" and he said "I don't need to play it again". If there had really been a tape and a misunderstanding we could have gotten to the bottom of it, but clearly he had no interest in that. I can accept high pressure sales and bait-and-switch tactics as techniques some companies will use to do business, but not drawing a line at dishonesty and abuse tells me this company does not know how to treat people right or do business ethically. I won't call this company again, ever."

"Above and Beyond 5-Star. Water heater replacement for tenants at my CEO boss's coastal rental property required high standards. I did the due diligence, made a LOT of phone calls to get estimates and referrals. After receiving astronomical bids from local plumbers decided to focus on water heater contractors. Maverick was the first and last contacted due to professional first impression, excellent and expedient communications, stellar reviews, availability and very fair pricing. I really liked that Steve is independent vs. franchise owned. It seemed too good to be true so verified his license with CA State, yes he was listed. Install was scheduled for Monday but when tenants called frantic that the leak was escalating, Steve responded by bumping install date up to Saturday. Today was install day. Steve was dependable, timely and got to work immediately. The Above and Beyond was deserved for first draining/uninstall defective unit, transporting it to Home Depot for warranty exchange then delivering replacement unit back to residence. I inadvertently selected the wrong replacement unit, Steve had to turn around to Home Depot and again go through the return process. Steve takes pride in his work, it is clear due to his experience and licensed status he wants to get the job done to code and right. He re-routed the piping to outside and leveled the water heater with shims at no extra charge. I love meticulous attention to detail. It's no wonder when I asked about Diamond Certification sticker on his van he informed me his previous employer was Diamond Certified, more affirmation of experience under highest standards. It feels good to know the time invested to research during selection process paid off and a good decision was made. BONUS: His sidekick is his young Welsh Springer Spaniel named Sam, just adorable."

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.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

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.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
