Frequently Asked Questions


  • How much does a water heater replacement cost in Lewiston, ME? Cost varies by size and type (gas vs. electric). We provide a flat-rate quote that includes the unit, installation, parts, and disposal of the old tank.
  • Why go tankless? Tankless units save space (wall-mounted), last longer (20+ years), and reduce energy bills because they don't heat water when you aren't using it.
  • What causes a water heater to leak? Usually, it’s the steel tank rusting through after the anode rod has been depleted. Once the tank rusts, it must be replaced.
  • Do you install electric water heaters? Yes. We install electric tanks and high-efficiency hybrid heat pump water heaters, which are great for all-electric homes.
  • How long does installation take? A standard swap takes 2-4 hours. A tankless conversion is a bigger job, typically taking a full day due to gas and vent work.

Lewiston, ME Insights: Population,
Zip Codes, Influence, and Service Areas

The Lewiston area traces its roots to 1669 with the early presence of the Androscoggin tribe (the namesake of the county in which the city resides). In the late 18th century, in 1795, Lewiston was incorporated as Lewistown. The presence of the Androscoggin River and Lewistown Falls made the town an attractive area for manufacturing and hydro-power businesses. The rise of Boston rail and textile tycoon Benjamin Bates saw rapid economic growth rivaling that of Cambridge, Worcester, and Concord. Irish immigrants were recruited to build the railroad links and dig the canals for the textile mills. The Irish stayed, and worked the mills and established flourishing businesses, as evidenced by the McGillicuddy, Callahan, and other Blocks and the St.Joseph's and St.Patrick's churches. In the 1850 Census Lewiston was fully 23% Irish born. The increase in economic stimulus prompted thousands of Quebecers to migrate, causing a population boom; the populace rose from 1,801 in 1840 to 21,701 in 1890. In 1855, local preacher Oren Burbank Cheney founded the Maine State Seminary, the first coeducational university in New England and one of the first universities to admit black students before the Emancipation Proclamation. Lewistown quickly became associated with the liberal arts and was incorporated as "Lewiston" in 1864, a year before the college was chartered as Bates College.
