That assumes a like-for-like 40–50 gallon tank swap with code-required fittings.

Plus materials: the tank itself is the biggest line on the bid. Ask for the model number and look up its street price.

The math, in the open: plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters in the Fresno area earn $25.08–$42.60/hour (median $30.96) per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025.

Multiply by the typical labor-hours for your job and you get the range above.
