How long does water heater replacement take in Hanover?

Most water heater replacements take 2-4 hours from start to finish. The exact time depends on your home’s setup and whether we need to make any modifications to bring everything up to current code. If you’re replacing a standard tank water heater with a similar unit, we’re usually done in about 2-3 hours. Tankless installations or situations requiring new gas lines or electrical work may take longer. We always give you a realistic timeframe when we provide your upfront pricing. No surprises, no dragging out the job unnecessarily.
Every water heater installation comes with our 1-year labor warranty. If there’s a problem with our installation work, we’ll return and fix it at no charge to you. This covers all the connections, fittings, and installation work we perform. Your new water heater also comes with the manufacturer’s warranty on the unit itself, which we’ll help you navigate if needed. We also provide a 7-day warranty on any drain cleaning work we perform during your service. We stand behind our work because we want you to have complete confidence in choosing us.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency water heater services throughout Hanover. When your water heater fails completely, you don’t have to wait until business hours for help. Emergency calls get priority scheduling, and we’ll work to get your hot water restored as quickly as possible. We keep common water heater models in stock for faster emergency replacements. Emergency service does include additional charges for after-hours calls, but we’ll explain all costs upfront before starting any work. No surprise bills when you’re already dealing with a plumbing emergency.
Water heater sizing depends on your household size, hot water usage patterns, and peak demand times. A family of four typically needs a 40-50 gallon tank water heater or appropriately sized tankless unit. We assess your current usage, count fixtures, and consider your family’s hot water habits. If you frequently run out of hot water or wait long periods for hot water to reach fixtures, you may need a larger capacity or more efficient system. During our assessment, we’ll recommend the right size for your specific situation. Getting the sizing right means you’ll have adequate hot water without paying for more capacity than you need.
We install quality water heater brands known for reliability and performance, including Rheem, Bradford White, and AO Smith.

This means if you ever need service down the road, parts and expertise are readily available in the Hanover area.
Water heater replacement costs vary based on the unit type, size, and any additional work needed to bring your installation up to code. Standard tank water heater replacements typically range from $1,200 to $2,500 installed. Tankless water heaters cost more upfront but offer long-term energy savings. High-efficiency models may qualify for rebates that help offset the initial investment. We provide upfront, transparent pricing before any work begins. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying with no hidden fees or surprise charges. This honest pricing approach has been our standard since we started serving Hanover in 2007.
