Sunshine State Plumbing

The Jacksonville team for every kind of water heater

Sunshine State Plumbing installs, repairs, and replaces gas, electric, and tankless water heaters across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. We've been family-owned and local since 2003, so whether you need a quick repair or a full replacement, you get a licensed crew that sizes the unit to your home instead of selling you more than you need.

When a water heater fails, the first question is repair or replace — and we answer it straight. A bad element or valve is often a simple fix; a tank leaking from the body has run its course. Either way the work is permitted where required, inspected, and backed by our 1-year workmanship warranty, with a free estimate and no trip charge.

A failing water heater sometimes points to bigger picture issues — aging supply lines worth a repipe or a hidden drip that calls for leak detection. We'll flag anything we spot and let you decide.

What we install

Gas, electric, and tankless.

Gas water heaters

Sized to your home and installed to current Florida code, with the venting and gas connections done right the first time.

Electric water heaters

Straightforward, reliable hot water — new installs and like-for-like replacements wired and set up correctly.

Tankless water heaters

On-demand hot water with no standby tank. We confirm your fuel source and demand before recommending the switch.

Repair & replacement

From a failed element, thermostat, or valve to a full replacement when the tank itself is done — diagnosed honestly.

We handle the manufacturer's warranty

If your unit is still under the manufacturer's warranty, you shouldn't have to chase down a claim yourself. We confirm the coverage and coordinate the replacement part or tank with the manufacturer on your behalf — and our own 1-year labor-and-materials warranty covers the installation.

Yes — we install, repair, and replace gas, electric, and tankless water heaters across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. We size the unit to your home's hot-water demand and fuel type and install it to current Florida code, whether you're keeping the same style or switching (for example, moving from a tank to a tankless unit).

It depends on the age of the unit and what's failed. A bad element, thermostat, or valve is often a straightforward repair; a tank that's leaking from the body has usually reached the end of its life and is better replaced than patched. We diagnose the unit first and tell you honestly which path makes sense rather than defaulting to a replacement.

Yes. When a unit is still under the manufacturer's warranty, we handle the warranty claim on your behalf — confirming coverage and coordinating the replacement part or tank with the manufacturer so you're not left chasing it down. Our own 1-year labor-and-materials workmanship warranty covers the installation.

For a lot of Jacksonville homes, yes — tankless units heat water on demand, take up less space, and avoid the standby tank. They aren't the right fit for every home, though, so we look at your hot-water usage, fuel source, and existing connections and give you a straight recommendation instead of a one-size-fits-all answer.

Yes. Sunshine State Plumbing is a Florida State Certified Plumbing Contractor (license CFC1426859). Every water-heater installation is permitted where required, inspected, and backed by our standard 1-year workmanship warranty, and estimates are free with no trip charge.
