Common Water Heater Problems We Fix

  • No hot water or not enough hot water
  • Water that gets hot and then runs cold quickly
  • Pilot light that will not stay lit or burner problems
  • Tripped breakers or failed heating elements on electric units
  • Leaking valves, fittings or relief valve
  • Rumbling or popping from sediment buildup
  • Error codes on tankless water heaters

How Our Water Heater Repair Works

Our plumber tests the thermostat, gas valve, thermocouple or flame sensor, heating elements, venting and relief valve to find the real cause. You get the diagnosis and an upfront price before any repair begins.

Many repairs are done in one visit because our trucks carry common parts. If the tank itself is leaking, repair is not possible and we will help you pick the right replacement.

Common Questions

Is it worth repairing an old water heater?

If the unit is under about 8 years old and the tank is not leaking, a repair usually makes sense. Older units with a leaking tank should be replaced.

My water heater is leaking. What should I do?

Turn off the cold water supply at the top of the tank and turn off the gas or breaker, then give us a call.
