Understanding Your Water Heater Options

We handle all types of residential hot water systems, focusing on accurate diagnosis to get you back into hot water quickly and affordably.

  • Traditional Tank Water Heaters: These units store and continuously heat water. They are typically more affordable upfront but less energy-efficient.

  • Tankless Water Heaters: These heat water on demand, saving energy and providing an endless supply of hot water. They have a higher initial cost but boast superior efficiency and a much longer lifespan.

Repair vs. Replace: Making the Smart Decision

  •  Traditional Tank Units: Under 8 years old should be repaired if possible. Repairs like replacing a faulty thermocouple, a simple heating element, or a pressure relief valve are generally affordable and extend the life of a newer unit.
  • Tankless Units: Under 15 years old should be repaired if possible. If the repair cost exceeds 50% of the cost of a new unit, or if the tank shows significant corrosion, replacement is the more economical, energy-efficient, and reliable long-term choice.

We always offer you a clear, transparent cost breakdown, so you have all the facts before making a decision.
