Common signs your water heater needs repair include no hot water or inconsistent water temperatures, rusty or discolored water from taps, strange popping, rumbling, or banging noises from the tank, water pooling or leaking around the base, reduced hot water capacity that runs out quickly, foul smelling hot water, pilot light that won't stay lit on gas units, or higher than normal energy bills. Any of these symptoms indicate your water heater needs professional diagnosis and repair before the problem worsens.

How much does water heater repair cost?

Heating element replacement runs $300 to $500. More complex repairs involving gas valves, pressure relief valves, or major component replacement cost $400 to $800. We diagnose the issue first and provide upfront pricing before performing any repairs so you know exactly what to expect.

Should I repair or replace my water heater?

Depends on age and repair cost. Under 7 years old, repair usually makes sense. Over 10 years, consider replacement.

The decision to repair or replace depends on several factors including age, extent of damage, and repair cost. If your water heater is under 7 years old and repair costs less than half of replacement, repair is usually the best choice.
