The process

From photos to hot water
in about a day.

No long waits, no guesswork estimates. Upload what you have and we'll handle the rest.

1

Submit your request

Fill out the quick form. Upload photos of your unit and the model number label — or schedule a time for us to come look in person.

2

Get your tailored quote

We review your photos and model number, then send you a detailed, flat-rate estimate the same day. No surprise add-ons.

3

We install — you get hot water

We handle everything: supply the unit, pull the permit, install, and haul away the old one. Licensed for both plumbing and electrical work.

What we do

Every type, every fuel.

Water heaters, heating, cooling and the electrical work that goes with them — we hold both the plumbing and the electrical licenses, so it’s one contractor and one permit set.

Tank Water Heater

Gas or electric, 30–80 gallon. All major brands. Usually installed the next day when we have your unit in stock.

Tankless (On-Demand)

Whole-home condensing units — Navien, Rinnai, Noritz. Gas line work and venting included.

Heat Pump Water Heater

High-efficiency electric — roughly a third of the running cost of a standard electric tank. We handle the electrical upgrade if needed.

Emergency Replacement

Leaking, no hot water, or a failed element? We answer 24/7 and move fast — call or text us any hour.

Permits & Inspections

We pull every required permit and schedule the inspection. DC, MD, and VA — all three covered under our licenses.

Old Unit Removal

Haul-away included at no extra charge. We disconnect, drain, and dispose of your old unit properly.

Panel Upgrades & Heavy-Ups

100 amp to 200 amp service upgrades, panel replacements, and heavy-ups for homes that have run out of room. We pull the electrical permit and coordinate the utility disconnect.

EV Charger Installation

Level 2 chargers wired on their own circuit, garage or driveway. If the panel needs upgrading first, we do both — one contractor, one permit set.

Furnaces

Gas furnace replacement with new venting and a sealed plenum. We size to the house, not to whatever was there before.

Boilers

Hot-water boiler replacement with the near-boiler piping rebuilt — new expansion tank, backflow preventer and circulator, not just a swap.

Air Conditioning

Condenser and coil replacement, level pads, and line sets strapped and run clean. Furnace and AC together in one visit when both are due.

Ductless Mini-Splits

For rooms and houses with no ductwork — one outdoor unit, one or more wall heads, line sets run outside instead of through your walls. Heat-pump models cool and heat.

Power Vent Water Heaters

For homes without a traditional flue or chimney. Power vent units use a blower to exhaust through PVC — we install the unit and run new venting in a single visit.

Specialty Service

Switching from gas to electric?
We handle every part of it.

Converting to a heat pump water heater cuts your hot-water energy use by roughly two thirds, and utility or state rebates may still apply in DC, Maryland and Virginia — we'll check what your address qualifies for when we quote you. Since we hold both a plumbing and electrical license, we do the entire job ourselves — no subcontractors, no second appointments, no coordination between two different trades.

✓

Gas line safely capped — all plumbing disconnection and connections handled by our licensed plumber

✓

New 240V dedicated circuit — our licensed electrician pulls the circuit from your panel, no separate electrician needed

✓

Both permits pulled — plumbing and electrical permits filed and inspections scheduled in all three jurisdictions

✓

We never subcontract — one licensed professional on your job from start to finish, in DC, MD & VA

Rebates
We check
The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment placed in service after Dec 31, 2025. Utility and state rebate programs in DC, MD and VA may still apply — we look up what your address qualifies for before we quote.
Energy Efficiency
2–3×
Heat pump water heaters move heat instead of creating it — up to 70% more efficient than a standard gas or electric tank unit.

Why our prices are lower

Affordable doesn't mean cutting corners.

We install the same premium brands as anyone else — we just have a smarter cost structure.

📦
We buy water heaters in bulk
We purchase directly at wholesale volume pricing — the same premium units (Rheem, Bradford White, A.O. Smith) that large companies install, but at a fraction of what they pay. Those savings go straight to you.
No retail markup
🎯
Water heaters are all we do
We don't spread ourselves thin across dozens of services. Our entire business — our inventory, our tools, our expertise — is built around one thing: water heater replacement and conversion. Lower overhead means lower prices for you.
Specialists, not generalists
🔑
Every license in-house — no middlemen
Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC — all under one license, one contractor, one price. We never subcontract. No extra markups, no coordination delays, no "we have to call our electrician." One call covers everything.
No subcontractors ever

Heat pump water heater & boiler ⚡ Heat pump

A Bradford White AeroTherm heat pump water heater and a U.S. Boiler Series 2, sharing one tight basement corner. New copper throughout, expansion tank, backflow preventer and a condensate pump for the heat pump’s drain. The tank reads 125° and its EnergyGuide label estimates $117 a year to run — the manufacturer’s figure at national average rates, so your bill will differ, but it is the lowest of any unit on this page.
