Does it really costs $2000 to install a 40gal gas water heater, with new shut off valves for gas and water ?
My daughter is having one done by a reputable company....just sounds high to me. But what do i know? I am just a grumpy-out of touch- old man ! LOL.

Last time I needed one (10+yrs ?) I went and got one for $400 + $50 for new valves and installed it myself.
Im just too old and crippled up to do that anymore. You cant get anyone to return favors anymore it seems. Lol.

Anyone with experience, thanks for chiming in. :)
 
Yeah, thats kinda what i thought....heater = $500 (generous) exp tank =$100 cutoff valves for gas and water $100(not really nec...just caution) ......sub total=$700 give or take
Labor$1300 ??!! WTF?
 
No a professional but I've installed a few. Unless there are extenuating difficulties with location or reworking of piping I'd say she's getting ripped off.
