Why Daley

We'll tell you if your water heater can be repaired instead of trying to sell you a new one. And if it does need replacing, we'll walk you through the real differences between tank and tankless — including the upfront cost, operating cost, and what actually makes sense for your home and your family's hot water usage. No commission-driven recommendations.

Common Questions

Should I go tankless or stick with a tank water heater?

It depends on your household. Tankless units cost more upfront but save on energy bills over time and last longer. Tank units are cheaper to install and work great for most families. We'll give you the honest breakdown for your specific situation — no agenda either way.

How long does a water heater last?

Tank water heaters typically last 8–12 years. Tankless units can go 15–20 years with proper maintenance. If yours is over 10 years old and showing signs of trouble (rusty water, strange noises, inconsistent temperature), it's worth having us take a look.

Do I need a permit to replace a water heater in Washington state?

In most cases, yes — replacing a water heater requires a plumbing permit in Washington. We pull the permit, do the install to code, and make sure it passes inspection. It's included in our scope, not an add-on surprise.

How quickly can you replace a water heater?

A standard tank-to-tank swap can often be done same-day. Tankless conversions typically take a full day since we may need to run new gas lines, upgrade venting, or add electrical. We'll give you a clear timeline before we start.
