Everything Included, Nothing Extra

Your water heater replacement includes professional installation, proper disposal of your old unit, and thorough testing of the new system. You get both equipment and labor warranties, so you’re protected if anything goes wrong.

We service both traditional tank water heaters and tankless systems. Whether you need a standard 40-gallon electric unit or want to upgrade to an energy-efficient tankless system, the installation meets all local codes and manufacturer specifications.

Emergency service is available when you can’t wait. If your water heater fails on a weekend or holiday, you can get same-day replacement service. We also offer flexible financing options, so you don’t have to delay getting your hot water restored because of budget concerns.

Most water heater replacements take 2-4 hours, depending on your home’s setup and the type of unit being installed. Traditional tank replacements are typically faster, while tankless installations may take longer due to additional venting or gas line requirements. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe after assessing your specific situation. If permits are required, that can add a day to the process, but the actual installation work is usually completed in a single visit.
It depends on your family’s hot water usage, available space, and budget. Traditional tank water heaters cost less upfront and work well for most families. Tankless units save space, last longer, and can reduce energy costs, but they have higher upfront costs and may require upgrades to your gas line or electrical system. If you have high hot water demand or limited space, tankless might be worth the investment. We can evaluate your specific situation and help you make the right choice.
Water heater size depends on your household size and usage patterns. A family of 2-3 people typically needs a 40-50 gallon tank, while larger families may need 60-80 gallons. For tankless units, the calculation is different and based on flow rate and temperature rise. We’ll assess your current usage, number of bathrooms, and appliances that use hot water to recommend the right size. Getting the wrong size means either running out of hot water or paying for capacity you don’t need.
Water heater replacement costs vary based on the unit type, size, and installation requirements. Traditional tank water heaters typically cost less than tankless systems, but tankless units can save money long-term through energy efficiency. Additional costs may include permits, upgraded venting, or electrical work. You’ll get upfront pricing before any work begins, so you know exactly what you’re paying. The investment includes professional installation, proper disposal of your old unit, and warranties on both equipment and labor.
Permit requirements depend on the type of replacement and local regulations. Simple like-for-like replacements often don’t require permits, but upgrades or changes to gas lines, electrical systems, or venting typically do. We know Freehold’s permit requirements and will handle the paperwork if needed. This ensures your installation meets all local codes and passes inspection. Skipping required permits can cause problems later if you sell your home or file an insurance claim.
Your new water heater comes with comprehensive warranties covering both the equipment and installation labor. Manufacturer warranties typically cover the tank and components for several years, while labor warranties protect you from installation-related issues. If something goes wrong, you call the same local number and get prompt service. We stand behind our work and will make it right. This is one advantage of working with a local company rather than a big chain—you get personalized service when you need it.
