Water Heater Repair Process

Here's How We Fix It

First, we diagnose the actual problem. Not just the obvious symptom, but what’s really causing your water heater to malfunction. We test the heating elements, check the thermostat, inspect the tank for leaks, and examine all the connections.

Then we explain what we found in plain terms. You’ll know exactly what’s wrong, what it costs to fix, and how long the repair will take. No surprises, no pressure.

Once you approve the work, we fix it right. We use quality parts that match or exceed your original equipment. Most repairs are completed the same day. We test everything before we leave to make sure your hot water is working properly and will keep working.

How long does water heater repair take in Granite Bay?

Most water heater repairs take 1-3 hours to complete. Simple fixes like replacing a heating element or thermostat are usually done within an hour. More complex issues like tank leaks or gas line problems can take longer. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate after diagnosing the problem. Since we stock common parts on our trucks, we can complete most repairs the same day without waiting for parts to arrive.
It depends on the age of your unit and the cost of repairs. If your water heater is under 8 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of replacement, repair usually makes sense. For units over 10 years old with major component failures, replacement is often more cost-effective. We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest recommendations based on what makes financial sense for you, not what generates more revenue for us.
Yes, we repair and service all types of tankless water heaters including gas and electric models from major manufacturers. Tankless units require different diagnostic approaches and specialized knowledge. Common issues include mineral buildup, ignition problems, and flow sensor malfunctions. We carry parts for most tankless brands and can handle everything from routine maintenance to major repairs. Many Granite Bay homes have upgraded to tankless systems, so we see these units regularly.
Hard water is the biggest culprit in our area. Granite Bay’s water supply contains minerals that build up inside your tank and on heating elements over time. This reduces efficiency and eventually causes components to fail. Sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank is another common issue. Regular maintenance can prevent many failures, but most homeowners don’t think about their water heater until it stops working. Age is also a factor – most residential units last 8-12 years with proper care.
Repair costs vary depending on what’s wrong. Simple fixes like replacing a heating element typically run $200-400. Thermostat replacement is similar. More involved repairs like fixing leaks or replacing multiple components can cost $400-800. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying. If repair costs approach the price of replacement, we’ll discuss your options honestly so you can make an informed decision.
Yes, we provide emergency water heater repair throughout Granite Bay. Water heater failures don’t follow business hours, and we understand that some situations can’t wait until morning. Emergency service is available for situations like major leaks that could cause water damage or complete system failures during cold weather. Emergency calls include additional service fees, but we’ll explain all costs upfront. For non-urgent issues, scheduling regular service hours usually saves money.
