"It was a wonderful experience. Travis was wonderful. He fixed my AC and it was a cheaper price. He was great and a life saver. He was really professional and polite. He responded to me very quickly."
Framing the support structure for a second-story deck addition. Pressure-treated posts and beams being installed to extend the outdoor living space and reinforce structural integrity. Project located in a residential backyard setting with access to existing patio slab.
We replaced an aging, inefficient HVAC unit with a new high-efficiency system to improve cooling performance and energy savings. The original unit was outdated, sitting low to the ground, with declining performance and airflow issues caused by poor drainage and landscaping.
In-progress installation of a high-efficiency air handler and furnace system. Wiring in place, connected to updated ductwork with adjacent water heater visible. Clean layout and spacing prepared for final paneling and system test.
Wall-mounted mini-split indoor head unit installed in an unfinished insulated wall. This high-efficiency ductless system provides both heating and cooling for zoned comfort.
Vintage mechanical thermostat from an early 1900s home. A visual reminder of how much heating and cooling technology has advanced. We specialize in upgrading outdated systems with smart, programmable thermostats to improve comfort and efficiency.

"The job was done very well and on time. They also had helpful suggestions along the way. Matins not only replaced the septic system, they also did concrete work and replaced the house. All of their work was done very well. They are also very friendly, professional, and easy to work with. I highly recommend them!"

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

Unless you have previous plumbing experience or extensive experience with water heaters, you should avoid replacing your electric water heater yourself. This process involves disconnecting wiring and parts from the old water heater and reinstalling them onto the new one, among other difficult tasks. This job is best left to the pros to make sure that everything is connected correctly to avoid serious leaks or malfunctions.

Your water heater's age can affect your homeowners' insurance policy. Many policies will ask how old the heater is when you first apply for a policy—and they may make you replace a model that's over 10 years old. 

Even if your policy permits you to have an older heater, it may significantly reduce the amount of protection available. If an older water heater suddenly leaks and causes damage to parts of your home, your policy may not cover it.

The time it takes to install or replace a water heater depends on the type of heater and the complexity of the job. A professional can typically replace a standard tank-style water heater in one to three hours. However, if the work area is tight, such as a small closet or crawl space, the job could take four to five hours. Replacing an existing tankless unit takes about two to three hours, while upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater is more complex and can take four to six hours. The project will take longer if you are switching fuel sources, such as installing a gas heater which can add about an hour to the timeline, or if the unit needs to be relocated.

Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget. 

Pros

  • Safer than gas or propane

  • Doesn’t require extensive venting systems

  • Lower upfront costs

  • Simpler to operate

  • No pilot light

  • Easier installation

  • More efficient heating than gas models

  • Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units

Cons

  • Slower to heat water

  • Longer recovery time

  • Possibly higher operating costs

  • Doesn’t work during a power outage

  • Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection

Yes, a water heater can be replaced in a day and can take between two and three hours to install from start to finish. Even if you encounter extra tasks that need to be completed, the job can still be completed in one day.
