Get matched with top water heater installers and replacers in Forest Lake, MN

"Contacted Water Heaters Now to replace 30-year old water heater. Shane ran through all our options, doing an excellent job of explaining the differences, pluses, and minuses of the many choices. Based on the conversation with Shane, and the fact Water Heaters Now is a Rheem certified "Pro Plumber", decided to proceed with Water Heaters Now. Even though we were not under an emergency as old water heater was still working, Shane and company were able to come out the next day. The installer, Jake, arrived on-time, was very professional, did a great job explaining the replacement process, explaining the maintenance aspects of the new water heater, and leaving the work area in very clean condition. Based on our experience with Shane, Jake, and Water Heaters Now, would highly recommend Water Heaters Now to anyone who asks."

"Trowbridge Plumbing did a great job replacing my power vented hot water heater. They arrived exactly when they said they would and they put down protective coverings the entire way from my entry door all the way into my utility room. They even swept and cleaned the area under my old water heater before installing the new one. They were very efficient, finishing the entire job in just an hour. Trowbridge Plumbing gave me the most competitive bid over the phone and they didn't try to add additional charges when on site doing the work. I will definitely call them for my next plumbing job and highly recommend them to anyone looking for high quality work at an affordable price."

"I was going to have some work done to my basement and needed the water heater moved. It was time replace the heater so I asked Northern if they could remove the heater and install the new one the next day. They were fine with that. The workers were very professional and friendly. The installer took the time to explain all the controls and maintenance. Very pleased with results"

"Josiah was punctual. He did a fine job He replaced a few feet of plastic water lines with copper pipe and secured it to a piece of wood to hold it tight I had noticed when the washer filled with water the plastic water tubing would jump around. This secured it ! He put in a new faucet. It looks very nice. He got it all done in a timely manner. He was very pleasant and explained what needed to be done and we agreed. We also had him flush our water heater too we were very pleased with his work."

"Kelly and Chad were amazing to work with in Replacing my leaking water heater. Several other companies tried scare tactics and were trying to take advantage of a female homeowner.. but not these guys!! Next day service, everything explained, and no surprises with billing! Very honest and respectful! Would highly recommend."

"I would rate the service by Pure Mechanical with more than 5 stars if I was allowed! Kelly and Chris were very responsive throughout the process. They provided a very competitive quote quickly after I provided some photos of the project. I appreciated their willingness to share knowledge and detail about the pros/cons of different types of water heaters and helped me make the final decision. For the service appointment, Kelly and Chris were right on time, made sure to keep the house and work area clean, and completed the installation in an efficient and timely manner. During and after installing the water heater, both Kelly and Chris shared information about how to better maintain the water heater to extend its service life (information the plumber that installed our prior water heater had not shared). All in all, it was a great experience working with Kelly and Chris from Pure Mechanical!"

"Exceptional service. I called him, and he came right away on a Saturday evening and installed a new water heater for half the price the big giant companies charge. He was very professional."

"Good and Bad. I had decided to replace my front porch light fixture and replace and repair the light fixture on on outdoor pole in my back yard. I also wanted to repair or replace my front doorbell. This was right at the start of the shutdowns due to COVID-19 so I was having a lot of trouble even finding someone willing to come to my home. I also was starting to work from home for the first time when I scheduled service. My appointment was on May 7th. Joe, the technician that came out arrived on time and was friendly and professional. I explained what I needed and had already purchased the light fixtures, solar monitor for the light pole and a doorbell and chime. Joe looked over everything and determined that it would be too difficult and costly to repair the original doorbell and I decided to purchase a Honeywell Plug-In wireless doorbell from him. Joe gave me three quotes for the work I needed. The lowest quote was $861.00 and the other two quotes were in the range of $1,200 to $1,500 dollars. I owed Joe a $60.00 fee just for coming out to give me a quote and with my anxiety over the virus and working from home and the trouble with getting anyone to come out I decided to have him do the work. While doing the work Joe also sold me a can (for $100.00) for the porch light fixture. The work took around 2 hrs and my bill was $961.00. I knew that I paid too much for the repair but I wasn't sure how much I was overcharged. I did call the company and was given a $25.00 credit that I qualified for but forgot to ask for during the visit. I've checked online and the doorbell I purchased sells for around $50 before markup. I also recently worked with a company called Handy.com and when I asked them for a quote for the same work (not including doorbell) I was quoted $141.00 for the work which they expected would take 2 hrs. Randy's did good work for me but I know I was severely overcharged for this repair. I know that I cannot afford to hire them again without a better breakdown and explanation of their pricing."

"I am blessed to have met David today. Thank you, Angie! David replaced a bath vanity faucet for me. He will be my “go to” plumber in the future! He is personable, quite knowledgeable, efficient, and his rates are competitive. Just by watching him, work, I could tell that he is worthy of his master plumber credentials. While he was here, he also flushed my hot water heater. Thanks for working that into your schedule today! I highly recommend David and his company, Nearby Plumbing based in Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN. nearbymnplumbing.com"

"Our water heater had been leaking. I contacted Dean’s Home Services on Thursday AM 3/5/2026. Their representative Mike Washburn arrived that afternoon. He discussed our options, and we chose a Bradford White water heater. Mike arranged for an install the next day and disconnected the old water heater. At 8:00 AM the next day installers Cody Washburn and Sebastian arrived. The new water heater was installed in an hour and a half. The old heater removed and cleanup completed. We had hot water in less than 24 hours after our original call. Mike, Cory and Sebastian were very helpful and professional. We could not be happier!"
