Everything Included, Nothing Extra

You get warranty protection on both parts and labor. We stock quality brands and can often complete installations the same day, especially for standard replacements.

San Leandro homes have specific requirements, and we know them. Whether you’re in the Marina area dealing with older plumbing or in the hills with different pressure considerations, we’ve handled similar installations in your neighborhood.

Most standard water heater installations take 2-4 hours from start to finish. This includes removing your old unit, installing the new one, connecting all utilities, and testing the system. Tankless installations or situations requiring plumbing modifications may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront and keep you informed if anything changes during the work.
Yes, San Leandro requires permits for water heater installations, and we handle this process for you. The permit ensures your installation meets local building codes and safety standards. We’re familiar with San Leandro’s requirements and will pull the necessary permits before starting work. This protects you and ensures everything is done legally and safely.
It depends on your household’s hot water usage and your home’s setup. Traditional tank water heaters cost less upfront and work well for most families. Tankless units save space, last longer, and provide endless hot water, but cost more initially. We’ll assess your usage patterns, available space, and budget to recommend what makes sense for your specific situation.
Water heater sizing depends on your household size and usage patterns, not just square footage. A family of four typically needs a 40-50 gallon tank or a properly sized tankless unit. We consider factors like number of bathrooms, simultaneous usage, and your specific habits. Getting the right size means you won’t run out of hot water or waste energy heating water you don’t need.
Installation costs vary based on the unit type, complexity of installation, and any necessary upgrades to plumbing or electrical systems. We provide upfront pricing after assessing your specific situation, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before work begins. This includes the unit, installation, permits, and old unit removal. We offer financing options to help with larger investments.
You get manufacturer warranty on the water heater itself, which varies by brand and model. We also provide warranty on our installation work, covering labor and any installation-related issues. We’ll explain all warranty terms clearly and provide documentation for your records. If something goes wrong, we’ll make it right quickly and professionally.
