— What's included

Every job. Same scope.

No upsells. No "extras." Quoted up-front, completed in full.

SCOPE.01
Full diagnostic

We check the thermostat, pilot, anode rod, and tank condition before recommending anything. No parts get replaced until we know exactly what failed and why.

SCOPE.02
Same-day repair

Most repairs done in 2 hours with parts we carry on every truck. No waiting for special orders on standard components.

SCOPE.03
Replacement options

When repair isn't worth it, we install a new unit the same day -- standard or high-efficiency. We help you weigh repair cost vs. replacement value honestly.

SCOPE.04
Code + permit

New installs include all required permits, gas/water connections, and disposal of the old unit. We handle the city inspection scheduling too.

— Common questions

Water Heater Service, answered.

How long does a water heater last?
Tank heaters last 8-12 years, tankless units 15-20. If yours is over 10, replacement often makes more financial sense than sinking money into repairs on aging components.
Should I go tankless?
Tankless saves 20-30% on water heating costs and never runs out of hot water. Higher upfront cost, but it pays back over 5-7 years and lasts nearly twice as long as a tank unit.
Do you install all brands?
We install and service every major brand -- Rheem, AO Smith, Bradford White, Rinnai, Navien, and more. We recommend based on your household size and usage patterns, not our margins.
Is there a warranty?
All installations include manufacturer warranty (6-12 years) plus our 2-year labor warranty. If anything fails in that window, parts and labor are covered.
