What it costs
We don't publish a price for this job yet. Get two or three quotes and ask each to include the new unit, installation, removal of the old tank, and any permit.
Signs it's time to call
- No hot water, or it runs out much faster than it used to.
- Water pooling around the base of the tank.
- Rusty or discolored hot water.
- Popping or rumbling noises from the tank.
Repair or replace?
Ask the plumber how old the tank is. Tank water heaters commonly last around 8 to 12 years. A leak from the tank itself usually means replacement, while a bad part on a younger unit can often be repaired.
How to choose a plumber
- Check the license on the Florida license lookup before you hire.
- Ask whether your replacement needs a permit and who pulls it. Not sure? Call the Putnam County Building Department at (386) 329-0205.
- Get the estimate in writing, and ask for proof of insurance.
