"Steve Overgard and his team replaced non functioning over sized windows in the house I bought that was partially renovated. These were 9x5 three panel picture windows over looking the water. The team measured, ordered custom windows, and installed them perfectly. They matched the paint color for the wide sill and frame. They completed all the finishing without any blue tags needed. I will use them again."

"Mike was great! My water heater had been broken for several days. He called quickly, came out the next morning and I had a brand new water heater installed that day. The price was fair and he was easy to work with. I definitely recommend and I will contract PMK in the future."

"It went well.  Fair price, good quality Bryant units.   They did encounter some unforeseen obstacles when replacing the HVAC units, related to poor past contractor work before I bought this house, but they responded appropriately, made things right.  ....Every job has the potential to be more or less challenging for a variety of reasons.  I like that they respond and tried to work with me.  For this reason, I can confidently say to other members that you should use them because if anything unexpected pops up, they will rise to the occasion.

"I can't say enough good things about Murphy's! Eric showed up right on time, was really pleasant and took his time to explain things to me. We had a set of outlets that stopped working, he tested all the outlets and showed me how to fix it using the circuit breaker (using the one switch I hadn't tried). He then installed a ceiling fan in a guest room and looked at an issue with another ceiling fan. He was here for about an hour. I will definitely use Murphy's again and request Eric. I also like how you can make an appointment online and they send you text reminders of your appointment."

"Cassidy's Plumbing was very responsive and eager to get our home back online with water, they reworked their schedule so that from talking on the phone to water heater installed and running in 2.5 hrs. The price was competitive and the workmanship was excellent. Would definitely recommend."

"The installation and secondary service went fine; I do not think that there was anything that Bakers had done wrong or negligently.  It was an act of the installation, difficult to determine whether an item manufactured else where would function as promised.  I cannot fault Bakers for their service of the unit.  I have had no problems with the air conditioner, the hot water heater or the thermostat, all of which Bakers installed in the last 4 years.

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

If you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

The average cost to install a new water heater is approximately $1,300, with a typical price range between $880 and $1,800. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type and size of the unit, its location and accessibility, and the amount of labor required. For example, installing a unit in a tight space like a crawl space can increase labor costs. The type of water heater significantly impacts the price: while a conventional gas heater might cost less than $1,000, tankless models can cost around $2,600 to install (and up to $3,500), and solar heaters can cost upwards of $3,700. Other factors that can affect the total price include the fuel type, vent system requirements, permits, and whether any additional plumbing work or repairs from previous water heater damage are needed.

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

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.
