Everything Your Water Heater Needs

Our water heater repair service covers all types of units—traditional tank water heaters, tankless systems, electric, and gas models. We handle everything from simple thermostat replacements to complex control board repairs.

For tankless units, we address error codes, descaling needs, and flow sensor problems. We also handle emergency situations like gas leaks or electrical issues safely.

If your water heater is beyond repair, we’ll help you choose the right replacement for your home and usage needs. We install energy-efficient models that can reduce your utility bills and provide more reliable hot water for your family.

How do I know if my water heater needs repair or replacement?

Most water heaters can be repaired if they’re under 10 years old and the tank isn’t leaking. Signs you need repair include no hot water, not enough hot water, strange noises, or rusty water. If your unit is over 12 years old, leaking from the tank, or requiring frequent repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Our technicians will give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement is the better investment for your situation.

How long does a typical water heater repair take?

Most water heater repairs take 1-3 hours to complete. Simple fixes like thermostat replacement or heating element changes are usually done within an hour. More complex issues like control board problems or venting repairs might take 2-3 hours. We carry common parts on our trucks, so we can complete most repairs the same day without waiting for parts to arrive. Emergency repairs get priority scheduling.

What's the difference between repairing tank and tankless water heaters?

Tank water heaters typically need heating element, thermostat, or anode rod replacement. These are straightforward repairs with readily available parts. Tankless units require more specialized knowledge and parts. Common tankless repairs include descaling, flow sensor replacement, and control board issues. Tankless repairs can be more expensive due to the complexity and specialized parts, but these units generally need fewer repairs over their lifetime.

Do you offer emergency water heater repair service?

Yes, we provide emergency water heater repair service for urgent situations like gas leaks, electrical problems, or complete hot water loss. We prioritize emergency calls and can often provide same-day service. Emergency situations that pose safety risks get immediate attention. While we can’t guarantee specific arrival times for all emergencies, we’ll give you realistic expectations and keep you updated on our technician’s status.

How much does water heater repair typically cost?

Water heater repair costs vary depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple repairs like thermostat replacement might cost less than complex control board issues. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know the exact cost. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. We’ll explain what needs to be fixed and why, helping you make an informed decision about proceeding with repairs.

Can you repair all brands and types of water heaters?

We repair all major water heater brands and types, including traditional tank units, tankless systems, electric, and gas models. Our technicians are trained on brands like Rheem, Bradford White, AO Smith, Rinnai, Navien, and others commonly found in Dartmouth homes. We stock parts for the most common repairs and can source specialized parts when needed. Whether your unit is a few years old or nearing replacement age, we can diagnose and repair most issues.
