In North End
Tacoma's North End is mostly older single-family homes on leafy streets, with Craftsman and early-1900s houses that have been updated over the years.
Older homes in North End often have original pipe behind the walls, so it is worth knowing what material is there before work starts.
Older North End houses often keep some original pipe behind remodeled walls, so it is worth knowing what is actually in the wall before a fixture swap.

Questions
Does the price include the water heater?
No. $500 is labor with the unit you supply. Ask us if you want the unit supplied and we quote that separately.
What about a tankless or larger heater?
Those are outside the posted price. Send us a photo and the model, and we quote it before any work.
When do I see the price?
Before the work starts. You get the number from us when you call, text or book, and we confirm it before we begin.
