Your water heater replacement includes complete removal of the old unit, professional installation of the new system, and all necessary permits and inspections. We handle the details so you don’t have to.
Sacramento homes often need specific considerations for water heater installation. Earthquake strapping, proper venting, and energy efficiency requirements all factor into a proper installation. We know the local codes and make sure everything meets current standards.
You also get our warranty on the installation work, plus manufacturer warranties on the equipment. If something goes wrong, you know exactly who to call and what’s covered.
Most water heater replacements take 2-4 hours from start to finish. This includes removing your old unit, installing the new one, and testing everything to make sure it works properly.
The timeline can vary depending on your specific situation. If we need to update plumbing connections or install new venting, it might take a bit longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront so you can plan your day accordingly.
For emergency replacements, we prioritize getting your hot water restored as quickly as possible while still doing the job right.
The right size depends on how many people live in your home and your hot water usage patterns. A family of four typically needs a 40-50 gallon tank, but your specific situation might be different.
We look at factors like the number of bathrooms, whether you have a dishwasher and washing machine, and how you use hot water throughout the day. Sacramento’s climate also affects sizing decisions since incoming water temperature varies seasonally.
Rather than guess, we’ll assess your actual needs and recommend the size that gives you reliable hot water without wasting energy on heating water you don’t use.
If your water heater is over 8-10 years old and having problems, replacement usually makes more sense than repair. Older units are less efficient and more likely to fail again soon.
Signs that point toward replacement include rust in the water, strange noises, frequent repairs, or significantly higher energy bills. Sacramento’s hard water can also accelerate wear on internal components.
We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether a repair will actually solve your problem or just buy you a few more months of uncertainty.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency water heater replacement throughout Sacramento. When your water heater fails unexpectedly, you don’t have to wait until Monday morning or regular business hours.
Emergency service means we prioritize your call and work to restore your hot water as quickly as possible. We stock common water heater sizes and types so we can often complete same-day replacements even on weekends.
Emergency calls do carry additional service charges, but we’ll explain all costs upfront before starting any work.
We install all major water heater brands including Rheem, AO Smith, Bradford White, and others. The best brand for your home depends on your budget, efficiency goals, and specific needs.
Each brand has different strengths. Some excel in energy efficiency, others in durability, and some offer better warranties. We’ll explain the differences and help you choose based on what matters most to you.
We also service and maintain any brand of water heater, regardless of who installed it originally.
Water heater replacement costs in Sacramento typically range from $1,200 to $3,500 depending on the type and size of unit you choose. Standard tank replacements are on the lower end, while tankless or high-efficiency units cost more upfront.
The final price includes the new water heater, professional installation, permits, and removal of your old unit. We provide detailed estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for before we start work.
Many customers find our final costs come in under the original estimate, especially when we can reuse existing connections and don’t encounter unexpected complications.
