Water Heater Repair Process

Straightforward Repair Process

When you call, we’ll schedule a time that works for your schedule – often the same day. Our technician arrives with diagnostic tools and common replacement parts already on the truck.

First, we’ll diagnose what’s actually wrong with your water heater. We’ll explain the issue in plain terms and give you an upfront price for the repair. If it makes more sense to replace the unit instead of repair it, we’ll tell you that too.

Once you approve the work, we get started. Most water heater repairs are completed within a few hours. We’ll test everything to make sure it’s working properly, clean up our work area, and show you how to spot potential issues in the future.

We Handle All Water Heater Types

Whether you have a traditional tank water heater or a tankless unit, we can fix it. We work on all major brands and handle the most common problems – heating elements that burn out, thermostats that fail, pilot lights that won’t stay lit, and tanks that develop leaks.

For tankless water heater repair, we understand the specific maintenance and repair needs these units require. Mineral buildup, flow sensor issues, and venting problems are all things we see regularly in Concord homes.

Every repair comes with a warranty on both parts and labor. We use quality replacement parts that are designed to last, not the cheapest options available. Our goal is to fix your water heater right the first time so you’re not dealing with the same problem again in a few months.

Most water heater repairs take 1-3 hours to complete. Simple fixes like replacing a heating element or thermostat are usually done within an hour. More complex repairs, like fixing a gas valve or addressing multiple components, might take longer. We carry common parts on our trucks, so we can complete most repairs the same day without needing to order parts. If we do need to special order something, we’ll let you know upfront and work with you to minimize the time you’re without hot water.
It depends on the age of your unit, the cost of the repair, and how often you’ve been having problems. If your water heater is over 10 years old and needs a major repair, replacement often makes more financial sense. For newer units or simple fixes like a bad heating element, repair is usually the better choice. We’ll give you honest advice about what makes sense for your situation. We’re not trying to sell you a new water heater if your current one can be reliably repaired.
Yes, we handle both traditional tank water heaters and tankless units. Tankless water heater repair requires different expertise because these systems work differently than tank units. Common issues we fix include mineral buildup that affects performance, flow sensors that malfunction, ignition problems, and venting issues. We understand the specific maintenance needs of tankless systems and can help you avoid problems through proper care. Whether it’s a gas or electric tankless unit, we have the tools and knowledge to diagnose and fix the problem.
The most obvious sign is no hot water or water that doesn’t get hot enough. But there are other warning signs to watch for: strange noises like popping or rumbling, water that takes much longer to heat up than usual, rusty or discolored hot water, and visible leaks around the unit. If your energy bills have spiked without explanation, that could indicate your water heater is working harder than it should. Don’t ignore these signs – small problems often become bigger, more expensive ones if left alone.
Repair costs vary depending on what’s wrong with your unit. Simple fixes like replacing a heating element typically cost less than major repairs like replacing a gas valve or control board. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. We’ll explain what needs to be fixed and why, so you can make an informed decision about whether to repair or replace your water heater.
Yes, we understand that water heater problems don’t always happen during business hours. We offer emergency repair service for situations like major leaks that could cause water damage or complete loss of hot water. Emergency service does cost more than regular service calls, but we’ll be upfront about pricing when you call. For non-emergency situations, we can usually schedule same-day or next-day service during regular hours, which saves you money while still getting your hot water restored quickly.
