Plumbing · Same day
What to write the day you send a water heater replacement estimate
A same-day note is optional. It is not one of the three scheduled follow-ups. Use it when you are not sure the water heater replacement estimate for $2,480 arrived, or when one point from the visit is easy to forget.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Skip it if you already talked it through
If you handed over the paper and walked the job, another email that night is noise. Plumbing estimates stall when the failure is not an emergency anymore and a big-box install is the other number.
What the recap should say
Name what the price includes: a 50-gallon gas water heater, haul-away, and the code straps and pan. Name what it leaves out: a reroute of the flue, if the inspector wants metal instead of the existing vent. Do you want the tank we priced, or a tankless number before you decide? Do not match a retail price by leaving out the pan, the straps, or the permit.

Your water heater replacement estimate from Diaz Plumbing
Hi Frank, I sent the water heater replacement estimate for $2,480 earlier today. It includes a 50-gallon gas water heater, haul-away, and the code straps and pan. It does not include a reroute of the flue, if the inspector wants metal instead of the existing vent. Do you want the tank we priced, or a tankless number before you decide? Thanks, Rosa Diaz Diaz Plumbing
