Water Heater FAQs

Can Water Heaters Be Repaired?

Yes, many water heater problems are quickly and easily resolved by a licensed plumber. In certain cases, where major repairs would be needed to an older unit or the tank has rusted through, we may recommend water heater replacement.

How Much Does it Cost to Repair a Water Heater?

What are the Signs of a Water Heater Going Bad?

Watch for these symptoms of a failing water heater:

• Insufficient supply of hot water or hot water runs out mid-shower.
