Plumber for new water heater? Cheap but good

Hello my water heater went out and I’m looking for recommendations of a local plumber that will do it for cheap. Premiere quoted me 4k for a $1200 water heater. I’m willing to buy it myself if y’all know anyone that will install it. Thanks

John Wayne Plumbing Company does good work and is a good honest man.$1200 for a water heater?Sounds high to me unless you have a 50 gallon water heater.

I had a similar issue, shopped around, and landed on a 30% price difference going for Military Plumbing (not your area) vs 3 others with drastically higher prices. Shop around and ask plumbers about buying it yourself first just in case.

My nephew is a plumber and does work on the side. DM me and I'll give you his info. He's an honest young man whose wife just had a baby.
