Hot water isn’t a luxury. It’s something your home depends on every single day. When your water heater fails or can’t keep up anymore, everything slows down. Showers turn cold, dishes pile up, and your routine gets disrupted fast.
Polly Plumbing provides expert water heater installation services in Keller, TX for homeowners who want reliable hot water without the guesswork. Whether you’re replacing an aging unit or installing a water heater in a new home, we make sure the system is sized correctly, installed safely, and built to last.
Replacing a water heater isn’t just about swapping out a tank. It’s about making sure your household has consistent hot water, proper energy efficiency, and a system that won’t fail when you need it most.
When you work with Polly Plumbing, we start by understanding your home’s hot water demands. How many people live there. How often hot water is used. What’s been failing with your current system. From there, we help you choose the right water heater and explain why it’s the right fit.
You’ll get clear pricing, realistic timelines, and an installation done to code. Once installed, we test the system thoroughly and make sure you know how to get the most out of it. No confusion. No rushed handoff. Just dependable hot water you can count on.
Whether your old water heater has failed completely or you’re planning ahead, Polly Plumbing installs systems designed to keep up with your household’s needs.
We install traditional tank water heaters and high-efficiency options, ensuring proper placement, secure connections, and reliable performance. Our focus is on long-term comfort, not quick installs that lead to problems down the road.
How much does it cost to pay someone to install a hot water heater? Most installations can be as low as $1,999 (owner supplied), but may cost more depending on the type of water heater and how much prep your home needs. Tankless units tend to run higher, but they also last longer and free up space.
For a pro, swapping in a traditional tank usually takes about 2–4 hours. A tankless install can take a bit longer—sometimes a full day—especially if new venting or hookups are needed.
Unless you’re licensed, it’s best to leave this one to the experts. Water heater installs involve gas lines, venting, and electrical work, so DIYing can be risky. Call a plumber, save yourself the stress, and enjoy hot water without the headaches.
Improper venting, incorrect gas or electrical hookups, or a poor water connection are the big ones. These mistakes can cause leaks, inefficiency, or even safety hazards. That’s why having a pro handle it is such a big deal.
You’d need wrenches, tubing cutters, a soldering kit, screwdrivers, a level, safety gear—the works. And if you’re dealing with gas or electric connections, you’ll need specialty tools (and permits). Honestly? This is one of those times where your best tool is a trusted plumber.
