Installed to code

A good installation is about more than the tank. We check venting, connections, expansion, and capacity so your new heater is safe and performs as rated.

Our approach
We install traditional tank, tankless, and heat pump water heaters. Each has different upfront costs, efficiency, and space needs, and we help you compare them for your household.
Common signs it may be time to replace: the unit is over 10 to 12 years old, it needs frequent repairs, it leaks, or it can no longer keep up with your hot water use.

A water heater over 10 to 12 years old is a common candidate for replacement, especially if it needs frequent repairs.
A traditional tank water heater typically lasts about 8 to 12 years. Tankless units often last longer with regular maintenance. Water quality, usage, and whether the tank is flushed annually all affect lifespan. If your unit is past 10 years and having problems, replacement is usually the better investment.
Common causes include sediment buildup taking up space in the tank, a failed heating element or thermostat, a broken dip tube, or a tank that's simply too small for your household. A tune-up or repair often solves it; if the unit is undersized or aging, it may be time to discuss options.
As a general guide: if the unit is under 8 years old and the repair is minor, repair it. If it's over 10 years old, leaking from the tank itself, or needs an expensive repair, replacement usually makes more sense. We'll give you a straight answer and a clear estimate either way.
