Mr. Myatt came out and checked it and was able to schedule one of his crews to install a new unit that same day. They did an exceptional job.

We spent money on service to our hot water heater that wasn't probably necessary. In continuing to call plumbing companies I finally spoke to someone (Gene Bishop) who understood the situation and referred me to Blitch Plumbing. From the moment I called into their office and spoke to the owner I knew I finally found someone who understood my problem. He explained the difference in water heaters and the pros and cons of tankless. Sent someone out to our home to access the problem. Our hot water heater was functioning but was vented improperly. It was vented for a direct vent hot water tank and not a conventional hot water tank. They were able to correct the problem by venting it properly. The next day we had some issues with the water smelling like sulfur and they came out immediately and drained the tank. Their service men were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. Not sure what seemed to be an easy fix was not caught by other plumbing companies.

Excellent. Honestly, I cannot say enough about Dutch or this company. We purchased a 4000sf house in November, and a few days before Christmas our insurance company let us know they'd be dropping our policy if we didn't have all the polybutylene pipes (the entire plumbing system) replaced...

"AJ came out to my house to do a quote to replace the sink drain stopper for our two bathrooms. The quote was so much less than the other two quotes I had obtained that I hired him to do the job on the spot. He did the job professionally and in a very short time. He was also very personable and very friendly. I will call Servant Plumbing and ask that AJ come and do the same job at a condo I own in Mt. Pleasant."

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.
