Water Heater Repair Process

Here's How We Fix It

First, we listen to what’s happening with your water heater. No hot water at all? Strange noises? Water not getting hot enough? These details help us diagnose faster when we arrive.

Our technician shows up with a fully stocked truck and runs a complete diagnostic. We check the heating elements, thermostat, gas connections, venting, and electrical components. Then we explain exactly what’s wrong in plain English.

You get upfront pricing for the repair before any work starts. If your water heater is beyond economical repair, we’ll explain your replacement options and costs. Once you approve the work, we fix it right and test everything to make sure your hot water is back to normal.

Everything Your Water Heater Needs

We repair all types of water heaters – gas, electric, tank, and tankless systems. Whether you have a traditional 40-gallon tank or a high-efficiency tankless unit, our technicians know how to fix it properly.

Common repairs include replacing heating elements, thermostats, gas valves, and pressure relief valves. We also handle more complex issues like sediment buildup, venting problems, and electrical connections. Georgetown’s hard water can be tough on water heaters, so we see a lot of mineral buildup issues.

When repair costs don’t make sense, we’ll recommend replacement and explain your options. We install new water heaters quickly and handle all permits and inspections. Every repair and installation comes with our warranty because we stand behind our work.

How much does water heater repair cost in Georgetown?

Water heater repair costs vary depending on what’s wrong, but most common repairs range from $200 to $600. Simple fixes like replacing a thermostat or heating element are on the lower end, while more complex repairs like gas valve replacement cost more. We always give you the exact price before starting work, so you’ll never get surprised by hidden fees. If the repair cost approaches the price of a new unit, we’ll explain your options honestly so you can make the best decision for your situation.
If your water heater is over 10 years old and the repair costs more than half the price of a new unit, replacement usually makes more sense. Older units are less efficient and more likely to fail again soon. However, if it’s a newer unit with a simple problem like a bad heating element, repair is definitely the way to go. We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest advice based on the unit’s age, condition, and repair costs. Our goal is to save you money in the long run, not sell you something you don’t need.
Yes, we provide same-day water heater repair service in Georgetown when you call early enough in the day. Our trucks are stocked with the most common water heater parts, so we can complete most repairs on the first visit. If we need to order a specific part, we’ll let you know the timeline upfront. For emergency situations where you have no hot water at all, we prioritize those calls and do everything possible to restore your hot water the same day.
Common signs include no hot water, water that’s not getting hot enough, strange noises like popping or rumbling, rusty or discolored water, and water pooling around the base of the unit. If your hot water runs out much faster than usual, that’s another red flag. Don’t ignore these warning signs – small problems often become expensive failures if left alone. Strange smells, especially rotten egg odors from gas units, should be addressed immediately for safety reasons. When in doubt, have it checked out before you’re left with no hot water.
Absolutely. We repair and service all major tankless water heater brands including Rinnai, Navien, Rheem, and Noritz. Tankless units have different maintenance needs than traditional tank water heaters, and our technicians are trained on the specific requirements for each system. Common tankless repairs include descaling for mineral buildup, replacing sensors, and fixing ignition issues. Georgetown’s hard water can be particularly tough on tankless systems, so regular maintenance is important to prevent costly repairs down the road.
Yes, all our water heater repairs come with a warranty on both parts and labor. The warranty length depends on the specific repair, but you’ll know exactly what’s covered before we start work. We use quality parts from trusted manufacturers, and our technicians are licensed and experienced. If something goes wrong with our repair work, we’ll come back and make it right at no charge. We’ve been serving Georgetown for years, and our reputation depends on standing behind our work completely.
