Water Heater Installation in Orillia
When the hot water runs out — or the tank starts leaking — you want it handled once, handled right, and priced in writing before work starts. That’s how we do it.
When It’s Time to Replace the Tank
A water heater rarely quits all at once. It warns you first:
If the tank is leaking from the body itself, repair isn’t an option — a leaking tank gets replaced, because a tank that lets go can dump its full contents, plus whatever the supply line adds, into your basement.
Warning Signs
- Hot water that runs out faster than it used to
- Rusty or discoloured hot water
- Rumbling or popping sounds from the tank
- Water pooling around the base
- A tank past 10 years old — most are living on borrowed time

What a New Tank Costs
A new 50-gallon tank, supplied and installed, runs $1,500 to $2,500+ for most Orillia homes. Your final price is set at your free estimate, in writing, before any work starts — the range depends on the unit you choose and what your setup needs (venting, pan, shut-offs, expansion tank). No surprises after the fact: the estimate is the price conversation, up front.
Thinking tankless instead? We install those too, and we’ll tell you honestly whether tankless actually suits your house — for some homes a standard tank is the smarter buy, and we’d rather sell you the right thing than the bigger thing.
How the Job Goes
Free estimate
We look at your current setup, talk through tank vs. tankless, and price the job in writing.
Install day
Old tank out and taken away, new tank in — connections made with modern press fittings, new shut-offs where they’re needed, and everything tested before we leave.
Walk-through
We show you the shut-off, the temperature setting, and the one thing that doubles a tank’s life: the anode rod, a part that costs about $50 and protects the tank from the inside. Most tanks die young because nobody ever changes it.
