How water heater replacement works, step by step

  1. Size it correctly

    Household size and peak demand set the capacity. An undersized tank means cold showers; oversized means paying to heat water nobody uses.

  2. Quote it flat, all in

    Unit, connections, permit where required, haul-away. One number.

  3. Install to current code

    Proper venting, correct T&P discharge, expansion tank, and drip pan where the location calls for it.

  4. Fill, purge and test

    We fill, purge the air, light and verify temperature before the truck leaves.

What customers say

Called at 11pm with water coming through the kitchen ceiling. Someone picked up, talked me through the shutoff, and had a plumber at the house before midnight. The price he quoted was the price I paid.

Danielle R., Alpena, MIWater leak repair

Our water heater died on a Sunday and I assumed we'd be cold until Tuesday. New tank in the same afternoon and the old one taken away. No upsell, no lecture.

Marcus T., Alpena, MIWater heater replacement

Third plumber we've had out for the same drain. First one who ran a camera and actually showed me the root ball. Jetted it, showed me the after footage, and it's been clear ever since.
