    $3,000 is utterly ridiculous. You can purchase a good 50 gallon electric water heater from $300 to $500. A gas one will cost slightly more. This can be installed in around 2 to 3 hours. The total cost should be around $600 to $800. Maybe $1,500 in a big city.

    It should cost between 750 and 1000.

    Definitely you should get another quote. Most plumbers will give you a rough quote over the phone for standard installations.

    A typical replacement should be about $750 including labor and removal of the old heater.
