Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair

If you notice any of these signs, call and we’ll send a licensed plumber to your home:

Little or No Hot Water

If hot water runs out faster than it used to or there’s no hot water at all, the burner or heating element may have failed. Lukewarm water instead of hot water, if there was no change in settings, means it’s time to call for water heater repair.

Inconsistent Water Temperatures

Constant fluctuations in water temperature can mean mineral deposits are building up inside the unit, which must be flushed out by a professional. They can also check for and fix other issues.

Strange Noises

Mineral deposits in the tank can create noises when the tank heats up. If you hear loud popping, banging, or rumbling sounds, call for help so a technician can address the cause.

Unusual Odors

A foul smell from a water heater can mean bacteria are growing inside it. Hydrogen sulfide released by these microorganisms usually causes the odor. A water heater flush can get rid of them.

Leaks or Visible Water Damage

If you see water trickling down the tank, there is a leak. Call for help before it gets worse and causes serious damage. Rust, corrosion, dents, cracks, and other signs of damage to the water heater should be addressed immediately by a professional.

An older water heater may perform less effectively and is more prone to developing problems, including pilot light issues, faulty pressure relief valves, and leaks. Issues with temperature control are also common. While these can often be resolved, our technicians will suggest replacing an older unit if it’s over 10 years old and requires expensive repairs. You can benefit from a more reliable and efficient system and save over the long run.

Our Water Heater Repair Services

We can provide any type of repair, regardless of the make or model. Highly trained, licensed, and experienced, our technicians promptly diagnose the issue and explain their findings and possible solutions to the problem. You’ll also receive an honest and accurate cost estimate with details on the timeline and the entire repair process.

A water leak is one of the most common water heater problems. High water pressure, corrosion, and wear and tear can lead to the need for water heater leak repair. We identify and address water heater leaks quickly to prevent further damage to the appliance and your home. A leak can be sealed and a faulty valve can be replaced if necessary. Larger leaks and damage to the tank require replacing the entire system.

We can also take measures to prevent a water heater leak, such as:

Gas Water Heater Repair

A gas burner, dip tube, or pressure relief valve can wear out, and a faulty pilot light can leave you without hot water. The exhaust flue vents gas out of your home. Any issues such as a blockage can be dangerous, while the connection to the gas line must be secure or a fire, explosion, or illness can occur.

Repairing a gas water heater requires expertise and taking the proper safety precautions. Taking the DIY route to gas water heater repair is too risky. Our technicians are trained in using the proper techniques, equipment, and safety gear and can quickly troubleshoot and correct any issues with the system.

Electric Water Heater Repair

Electric water heaters have two heating elements. Our technicians can determine if a faulty upper or lower element is not working. A problem with the upper heating element prevents the unit from reaching the set temperature; if the lower heating element is bad, hot water will run out quickly. Other issues can include faulty wiring or a disruption in the power supply.

Our plumbers have the equipment to test electric hot water heating elements. If just one is bad, they can replace it without installing a new water heater. They’re also skilled in electrical safety and protecting themselves against shocks, burns, and fires while working. Following safety protocols helps prevent additional damage and costly repairs, and it can quickly get equipment back online.
