Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a water heater typically last?
Most traditional water heaters last 8–12 years, while tankless models can last up to 20 years. Lifespan depends on proper installation, water quality, and maintenance. Routine professional care ensures optimal performance, helps identify issues early, and extends the life of your water heating system significantly.
What are signs my water heater needs repair?
Common signs include inconsistent water temperature, strange noises, leaks, rusty water, or reduced hot water supply. These issues indicate wear or malfunction. Professional inspection quickly identifies the cause and provides repairs that restore safe, efficient operation, preventing complete system failure or costly water damage.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
Repairs are often best for minor issues on newer units, but replacement may be needed for older systems nearing the end of their lifespan. Professional plumbers evaluate age, efficiency, and condition to recommend the most cost-effective solution, ensuring reliable hot water and long-term savings.
What’s the difference between tank and tankless water heaters?
Traditional tank water heaters store and heat water continuously, while tankless units heat water on demand. Tank systems are generally less expensive initially, while tankless models offer long-term energy savings and unlimited hot water. Professionals help select the right option based on property needs and budget.
How often should maintenance be performed?
Routine maintenance is recommended annually. Services typically include flushing sediment, checking connections, and inspecting components. Regular maintenance reduces energy use, prevents unexpected failures, and extends equipment lifespan. Skipping maintenance increases the risk of costly breakdowns and reduces efficiency, impacting both energy bills and system performance.
Do you provide emergency water heater repairs?
Yes, emergency water heater services are available 24/7. Whether dealing with leaks, complete system failures, or discolored water, professional plumbers respond quickly to restore functionality. Emergency repair services minimize disruption, protect property from damage, and ensure households and businesses regain reliable hot water promptly.
Are energy-efficient water heaters worth the investment?
Yes, energy-efficient models reduce utility bills and environmental impact while providing consistent hot water. Although the initial cost may be higher, long-term savings offset the investment. Professional plumbers recommend and install suitable systems, ensuring you gain maximum benefit from energy-efficient technology and reliable hot water performance.
Can I install a water heater myself?
DIY installation is not recommended. Water heaters require proper plumbing, electrical, and safety connections. Incorrect installation can lead to leaks, inefficiency, or hazards. Professional plumbers ensure systems meet safety codes, operate reliably, and last longer. Professional installation protects your property and guarantees dependable hot water performance.

Testimonials
Adam and his team are a fantastic. I have worked with them many times and they are the picture of professionalism. Their work is quality and clean and my other trades have even mentioned that their work is some of the better plumbing that they have seen.
CJ G.
Used Adam and his helper to repair a pinhole leak on a copper water pipe in my crawlspace. I could hear it from above. They efficently located the leak and determined about 3ft needed to be removed due to corrosion in a couple spots that would have lead to more pinholes. They used 2 propress adaptors and a stick of pex pipe to repair the leak. They were very professional and quick with their work. Fair pricing as well. Will be calling them if I have any plumbing issues in the future
