Water heaters are one of our most common calls, and one of the jobs where quality of installation matters most. Every replacement we do includes proper seismic strapping, a code-compliant T&P relief line, correct venting and gas connections, a new expansion tank where required, and clean, supported piping.
We install and service tank units from brands like Bradford White, and tankless systems such as Navien for homes that want endless hot water and lower standby losses. We'll help you compare the two honestly, including what your gas line, venting, and space will actually support.

Frequently asked questions
- Tank or tankless — which is right for me?
- Tankless gives endless hot water and saves space, but needs adequate gas supply and venting. A quality tank unit is often the better value for smaller homes. We'll price both and explain the trade-offs for your house.
- Can you replace it today?
- In most cases yes. Call us in the morning and we can usually have hot water back the same day.
- Do you handle permits and code requirements?
- Yes. We install to code with proper strapping, relief piping, venting, and expansion control — the details that protect your home and your warranty.
