I would just point out that a standard electric water heater costs less than the regular electric oven, dishwasher, or other appliances in your house. I don't do any maintenance on my water heater because it is very easy and inexpensive to replace when it fails after 10-15 years or so. I certainly wouldn't pay someone to perform preventive maintenance on it.
