"In todays fast paced world, it is hard to find people we can trust and to wonder when we purchase something ,whether or not we are going to get a quality product for what we are paying for. I had been looking around to purchase some new windows for several years, but when I always heard quotes on the cost I was unwilling to take the leap. One day, upon hearing a quote of what the windows I wanted replaced would cost me from their sales rep., I took that leap. It was a no brainer. With such a great price, now I wondered if i was going to get quality for what I was paying. I have to tell you I was delighted to see the final results of my beautiful new windows. Not only were all the people I spoke with in this company kind and respectful, but they also helped me set up financing as well. Great Company, Really Good People, Quality Product and Service!"

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.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

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.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need.
