"We have been putting off replacing our 20 year old water heater. I contacted Jim @ Shore Thing Plumbing sent him a couple of photos of our current water heater. He called me back in just a little bit of time with the price to replace it, he put us on his schedule for 8:30 AM. That morning Jim pulled into our driveway at 8:30 ready to get the job done. There were no multiple trips to a supply house for parts or supplies. He was very attentive to our property and made prompt cleanup of spilled water and cleaned up as he went ago. He made fast work of replacing the heater he then removed the old water heater and all materials that he removed to place the new one in. Jim is very knowledgeable of the plumbing trade as he is a master plumber. Please if you need plumbing repairs give Jim a call at Shore Thing Plumbing great service on time and priced right."

"Master plumber Mike Shaw rebuilt the tank of my vintage American Standard [Bayberry color] Elongated Cadet Toilet [Model 4049]. The tank was cleaned of built-up debris. All components were replaced with the latest and efficiently working parts available. The unit was restored to operational status. Mike even [painfully] removed the frozen-in-place Church Seat toilet seat [very labor intensive] and installed a new color-matched composite seat unit. First class job."

"My heat pump which had been installed 2 years ago by FH Furr suddenly stopped working Sunday afternoon. With the heat warnings in effect, I knew I needed help, FAST! Blair arrived this morning abd diagnosed the issue and replaced the condensation pump. These new "smart" systems have more brains than some humans!! When the pump failed, it shut down the entire system. However, Blair had the old school know-how and work ethic to get my system back online and back to normal. I have seen a nice change in technicians in the last 2 years and am always pleased to have them come out and fix any issues I may have. Keep up the good work!!"

"Jeff Matthews of Precision Plumber did excellent work. He was friendly and professional. He coordinated his job with other workers and left the worksite clean. He was efficient and stayed late to complete the work. Very professional. Knew what he was doing. I would definitely use him again for future work. The tankless gas hot water heater works great!

First of all, 75 gallon gas water heaters are very difficult to come by at this time.  When I initially called Mr. Stephens, he worked very, very hard to find one for me.  In addition, he gave me the most reasonable quote for the job of the several calls I made.  Furthermore, all of the other companies I called for comparison insisted on making an initial inspection that would cost me.  Mr. Stephens was willing to work off of pictures that I sent him and information that I gave him from an earlier inspection.  He worked on the project from the time I called and even into the evening.  He was extremely professional and I plan to call him in the future for all plumbing needs.  I feel relieved to know that I have a plumber to call on that I can count on that is knowledgeable, reliable and reasonable in price.  I would recommend him to everyone.

Overall, from the very first phone call I made to him, I had the impression he wasn't taking on the job just to make a buck, but he enjoyed his work, and wanted to satisfy his customer and do it right.  He demonstrated this through his consistent efforts in finding the heater and getting the job done quickly so I could have hot water restored quickly.  He could very easily have asked for more money but did the right thing.  He's a gem and a good find!

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can convert a gas water heater to an electric one, but it is a complex process. You will need to ensure there is adequate power for the new electric unit, as they require more power than gas models. The project also involves safely closing off the gas lines and ventilation, and some cities may require a permit for the conversion. The cost can range from $1,500 to $4,100, depending on the installation scope, plumbing and electrical work, and the water heater model. For an accurate quote, it's best to contact a local professional. Also, be aware that your monthly utility bills may increase after the conversion, as natural gas is typically cheaper than electricity.

Basements, specifically those without any air conditioning, are the best location for a hybrid water heater. These rooms are less likely to experience extreme temperature fluctuations, which can affect your hybrid water heater’s efficiency and performance. Basements often have more than enough space for their tanks and proper air circulation. Hybrid water heaters can also be a bit noisy, but putting them in your basement will keep the noise away from your main living areas.

It’s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:

  • Electric: $600–3,500

  • Gas: $700–$2,700

  • Propane: $700–$2,500

  • High efficiency: $1,500–$3,000

  • Indirect: $1,200–$3,500

  • Hybrid heat pump: $1,200–$3,500

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

We recommend you turn off the unit, the power, and the water supply as soon as you notice a leak. Your water heater tank should have a dedicated shut-off valve located on the cold inlet pipes. If the valve is broken or inoperable, use the shut-off valve to your home's main water supply to stop the flow to the entire house.

Avoid touching valves or pipes directly without confirming if they are hot. Wear gloves and other safety gear to keep from coming into contact with hot levers or components when turning off your leaking water heater.
