FAQs
How does your transparent pricing work for tank water heater services in Speedwell?
Before any work begins, our technician performs a no-cost on-site evaluation of your existing tank water heater. You’ll then receive a written quote that breaks down labor, materials, permit fees, and taxes line by line. The price you approve is the final price you pay—no hidden charges or surprise add-ons once the job is finished.
What is included in the quoted price for a standard tank water heater replacement?
The quote covers removal of the old heater, delivery and installation of a new energy-efficient tank unit, all required piping and fittings, temperature-pressure relief valve, expansion tank (if needed), disposal of the old unit, permit procurement, and a start-up performance test. We also provide a complimentary safety inspection of surrounding plumbing to ensure code compliance.
Do you offer same-day service for water heater emergencies in Speedwell?
Yes. If you call before 2 p.m., we can usually replace or repair a failed tank water heater the same day. Emergency dispatch carries the most common 40-, 50-, and 80-gallon gas and electric models in stock, so you’re never waiting days without hot water.
Can I see the price of each component (heater, valves, labor) before I agree to the job?
Absolutely. Our transparent pricing sheet lists individual costs for the tank water heater model, isolation valves, expansion tank, gas or electrical upgrades, disposal, and labor. You’ll receive a copy to review and sign electronically or on paper before we schedule the installation.
What warranties come with your tank water heater installations?
Every installation includes the manufacturer’s parts warranty—typically 6 to 12 years on the tank and major components—plus our own 2-year labor warranty. If something we installed fails due to workmanship within that period, we repair it at no charge.
How can I lower my long-term operating costs after installation?
We can install an optional timer or smart thermostat to reduce standby heat loss, insulate exposed hot-water lines, and provide an annual flush and anode-rod inspection package at a discounted transparent rate. These steps can increase efficiency by up to 15 % and extend the heater’s lifespan, saving you money year after year.
