About Water Heater Installation and Repair

Cold showers and strange noises? We repair or replace your water heater.

A water heater works hard every day, and the signs of trouble are easy to miss: rumbling from sediment, rusty water, puddles at the base or a heater that keeps running out. We test the unit, find what is wrong and give you honest options.

We install and repair gas and electric tank water heaters for homes and businesses, sized and connected to fit your household, and we show you the shutoffs and basic care when we finish.

Questions About Water Heater Installation and Repair

Still have a question?

Call (629) 276-6322

Should I repair or replace my water heater?

If the tank is sound, a repair may give years more. If it leaks or is very old, replacement is smarter. Our Repair or Replace Advisor helps you think it through.

What size water heater do I need?

It depends on the number of people and fixtures. We help you choose.

Do you install both gas and electric heaters?

Yes.

Why is there water around my heater?

It could be a leak from the tank, a connection or the relief valve. Turn off the water and power or gas and call us.
