What to send while a water heater replacement waits on approval

Send this when the bid is stuck on another person, a board, or a permit. Ask what they still need from you, then wait.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

Who is holding it

Tank versus tankless is often a second person's question after they see only the tank price.

What you can hand them

The price is $2,480 and includes a 50-gallon gas water heater, haul-away, and the code straps and pan. Plumbing estimates stall when the failure is not an emergency anymore and a big-box install is the other number. Do not match a retail price by leaving out the pan, the straps, or the permit.

If you send it from QuoteLasso

The default schedule is three emails, at 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last one. You can move the dates. Add the estimate by typing it in, forwarding the message, or importing a spreadsheet. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop. QuoteLasso does not send texts. During the 14-day trial, due emails can send on their own. After that, Free is manual. Starter is $79/month and Pro is $149/month.

What does the approver need on the water heater replacement?

Hi Frank,

If someone else still has to approve the water heater replacement, I can resend the $2,480 estimate in whatever form they need.

Tell me what they ask for. I will not keep emailing while you wait on them.

Thanks,
