Common Water Heater Problems We Address
Water heaters tend to break down in ways that cause stress, frustration, and water damage. Our goal is to handle the problem quickly and leave you with a long-term solution you can count on. Some of the common issues we resolve include:
No Hot Water or Inconsistent Heating
No hot water at all, or heat that cuts in and out, usually points to a faulty heating element, a thermostat problem, or a gas connection issue. If your showers keep turning cold or take too long to warm up, we’ll track down the cause and get your system working again.
Leaking Tank or Pooling Water Near the Unit
A leak near your water heater can cause mold, rust, and serious water damage. Cracks in the tank, worn relief valves, and pipe corrosion are all common reasons this happens. We repair leaks before they get worse and help keep your utility bills under control.
Discolored or Foul-Smelling Water
If the water from your hot tap comes out with a brownish, rust-colored tint or carries an unpleasant odor like rotten eggs, your water heater needs attention. This often points to a deteriorating anode rod, which is meant to prevent corrosion, or a buildup of sediment and bacteria within the water tank. Clean water is a necessity, and we can correct the problem.
Unusual Noises From the Tank
Are you hearing popping, rumbling, or crackling sounds from your hot water tank? These noises are typically caused by a layer of mineral sediment that has settled at the bottom. As the heating element turns on, water trapped beneath the sediment boils and makes these sounds. This buildup reduces efficiency and can damage the tank over time.
Pilot Light or Ignition Issues
For homes with a gas water heater, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out or fails to ignite is a common frustration. This can be caused by a faulty thermocouple or an interruption in the gas supply. We have the expert knowledge to safely address issues related to gas and ignition systems, restoring your unit’s function.
Water Pressure Problems
When the hot water at your tap trickles out but the cold water flows freely, the problem is likely connected to your water heater. A buildup of mineral deposits and sediment inside the tank or in the connecting pipes can create blockages that severely restrict your hot water supply and lower the pressure throughout your plumbing.
Types of Water Heaters We Repair
Your home may have one of several different types of water heating systems. Our team is well-versed in the technology behind each one, allowing us to provide effective hot water tank repair and service for the unit you count on every day.
- Conventional Storage Tank Water Heaters: These classic models keep a reservoir of hot water ready for use in a large, insulated water tank, powered by either gas or electricity.
- Tankless (On-Demand) Water Heaters: A great solution for energy conservation, these units heat your water directly as you need it, avoiding the utility costs of keeping a large tank hot.
- Heat Pump (Hybrid) Water Heaters: These highly efficient electric models pull heat from the surrounding air and transfer it to the water, using less energy than a standard heating element.

Ways to Keep Your Water Heater in Prime Condition
A little proactive maintenance goes a long way in extending the life of your water heater and improving its efficiency. Annually draining the tank, for instance, helps clear out performance-robbing sediment. It is also wise to have a professional inspection of the anode rod every few years to protect against rust and internal corrosion. Finally, periodically testing the pressure relief valve is a simple safety check you can perform to protect the unit’s longevity.
