Are hot water heaters good for scrap metal?

• <div><p>Since water heaters are primarily made of metal, they’re commonly accepted by scrap yards and collectors. Don’t expect to fetch a high price, though—water heaters are mostly steel and aluminum, which aren’t high-value metals. Some components are made of more valuable metals, like brass and copper, but they’re a small portion of the heater and won’t affect the price much.</p></div>

They helped me turn a metal garage into a beautiful workspace, with a loft and enclose space for my car. They listened to my ideas and helped bring my vision to life. They get to work quickly and have a very fair price.

Replaced the popcorn ceilings in some rooms. I scraped and called these guys to do the retexture with splatter drag and paint. They did a first rate job. I'll be calling again when ready to do the rest of the house.

"Thres and his crew are amazing! He contacted me soon after submitting a request for quote. I wanted covered parking and added on updates to my gated entrance. It took a little while to get our calendars aligned (he's super busy) but once we did everything moved along quickly. They were in and out in just a few days. I'm extremely pleased with the work done and would hire them again in an instant!"
