"A SEAR'S APPLIANCE REPAIRMAN CAME TODAY TO FIX MY ALMOST NEW, HIGH END KENMORE ELITE DISHWASHER. IT WAS THE SECOND TIME THE DISHWASHER'S DIGITAL CONTOL BOARD FAILED. THE DISHWASHER WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE THE IT WAS PURCHASED FOR A REMODELING JOB THAT WAS DELAYED. SO THE DISHWASHER WAS BOUGHT, BUT NOT DELIVERED FOR OVER A YEAR. THE DISHWASHER WAS ACTUALLY PUT IN SERVICE SEPTEMBER 2017, THE WARRANTY RAN OUT WHILE IT WAS SITTING IN THE APPLIANCE STORE'S WAREHOUSE WAITING TO BE INSTALLED. THE DIGITAL CONTROL PANEL FAILED IN FEBRUARY 2018. AT THE TIME I WAS TOLD BY THE SEARS REPAIRMAN WHO FIXED THE PROBLEM THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. HE TOLD ME THAT HE COULD FIX IT BY CLEANING THE CONTACTS BUT IT WOULD PROBABLY FAIL AGAIN IN ABOUT 6 MONTHS. SURE ENOUGH, IT FAILED IN JUST OVER 6 MONTHS. I PAID APPROXIMATELY $150 FOR THIS REPAIR. THE SEAR'S. REPAIRMAN WHO CAME TODAY TOLD ME THAT THE PARTS AND LABOR TO REPAIR THE DISHWASHER WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $450.00 BUT THAT IF I WANTED, SEARS WOULD REPLACE THE DISHWASHER WITH EXACTLY THE SAME MODEL FOR FOR ABOUT $500. HE THEN CALLED SEARS APPLIANCE SALES TO ORDER THE NEW DISHWASHER BUT IT TURNED OUT THAT REPLACING THE DISHWASHER WITH THE SAME MODEL WOULD BE A LOT MORE THAN $500. SO I DECLINED THE PURCHASE AND ASKED THE REPAIRMAN TO PROCEED WITH ORDERING THE PARTS FOR THE REPAIR. HE THEN SAID HE COULD NOT PROCEED WITH THE REPAIR SINCE WHEN I OPTED TO REPLACE THE DISHWASHER, I VOIDED MY RIGHT TO HAVE THE DISHWASHER REPAIRED. HE SAID I WOULD NEED TO SCHEDULE ANOTHER $99 APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE DISHWASHER REPAIRED. THEN HE LITERALLY RAN OUT THE FRONT DOOR. I PAID $99 AND GOT NOTHING EXCEPT INCORRECT, BAD INFORMATION. WHEN I TRIED TO GET THE $99 FEE I HAD PAID REFUNDED, I WAS TOLD IT WAS NON-REFUNDABLE. I NOW I FIND OUT THE "PART THAT OFTEN FAILS" IS A SPECIAL ORDER PIECE THAT COSTS $200+ WITH SHIPPING AND IT MAY TAKE WEEKS TO GET. KENMORE BUYERS VERY BEWARE."

With over 15 years of experience, Pete’s Plumbing specializes in commercial & residential plumbing services including bathroom remodels and basement finishes. Now servicing Big Lake, Zimmerman, & Princeton areas as well as the greater Twin Cities metro. Call or text Jeremy at 763.234.8187, today!
"I have renovated over twenty properties in several Minnesota counties. I work with several plumbers and most of them are honest and ethical. I believe at one time Jeremy was honest but is now using his companies reputation to over charge customers. I called Jeremy because I needed two copper pipes installed for a water softener. I explained that I would install and setup the water softener. Over the phone he quoted that his charges would be under $200.00 to install two copper pipes. Jeremy arrived at our property and worked from 3:00 pm to 3:20 pm. I then engaged Jeremy in conversation and he required $225.00 for twenty minutes of work. I challenged his extreme charges and he continued to claim that he is the cheapest plumber in the area. He explained that other plumbers complain that Jeremy is too cheap and hurt their pricing. This places Jeremy's hourly rate at over 600.00 an hour. Jeremy then handed me a time and material invoice for $225.00 and demanded full payment. I paid Jeremy in full but this is a warning that this company is defrauding and cheating innocent people in Anoka county. I intend to file a complaint with the department of commerce and other agencies to require that plumbers be regulated by government agencies. Plumbers such as Jeremy are overcharging and are worse than the most expensive attorney."

FAQs for water heater service projects in Cottage Grove, MN
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.
