Water Heater Replacement Since 2003

40 to 75 Gallon Tanks, Gas or Electric

✶ ✶ ✶ ✶

Leaking, rusted, or past 10 years? Replacement usually beats another repair. We swap 40, 50 and 75 gallon tanks, gas or electric, chimney or power vented, and install Rheem, Bradford White, A.O. Smith and Rinnai. The same family has done this work in Chicago since 2003.

You get the price before we start. A 40 gallon chimney vented tank runs $1,700 to $1,800 installed; a 75 gallon power vented tank runs $3,700 to $4,100. No hidden fees, and the old tank leaves with us.

Most replacements are finished in a single visit, often within a few hours of the call. We carry common tank sizes with us, so there’s usually no waiting on a part order, and the old unit leaves with our truck the same day. You’ll have hot water back before the evening.
