Everything Your Water Heater Needs

We handle the full range of water heater problems Cedar Crest homes face. Pilot lights that won’t stay lit, heating elements that burn out, thermostats that can’t hold temperature, and tanks that leak from the bottom up.

Your water heater replacement gets the same attention as emergency repairs. We help you choose the right size and type for your home, handle the installation properly, and make sure everything meets local codes.

Plymouth County’s hard water and temperature swings are tough on water heaters. We know which parts fail first and stock the components that actually last in this area.

Age is the biggest factor. Most traditional tank water heaters last 8-12 years, while tankless units can go 15-20 years with proper maintenance. If your unit is approaching these ages and having frequent problems, replacement usually makes more sense than repeated repairs. Other signs pointing to replacement include rust in your hot water, significant leaks around the base, or if repair costs exceed half the price of a new unit. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement is the better investment for your situation.
The most common issues we see are heating element failures in electric units and pilot light problems in gas systems. Plymouth County’s hard water accelerates sediment buildup, which reduces efficiency and can cause overheating. Thermostat malfunctions are also frequent, especially in units over 5 years old. In tankless systems, mineral buildup in the heat exchanger is the leading cause of performance issues. Cold New England winters put extra demand on water heaters, which can push aging components over the edge. Regular maintenance catches most of these problems before they leave you without hot water.
Most standard repairs take 1-3 hours depending on the problem. Simple fixes like replacing a heating element or thermostat usually wrap up in about an hour. More complex issues like addressing sediment buildup or replacing multiple components can take 2-3 hours. Tankless water heater repair often takes longer because accessing internal components requires more disassembly. If we need to order a specific part, we’ll get your system running temporarily when possible and return to complete the permanent fix. We always give you a realistic time estimate before starting work.
Yes, we work on all major brands and types of water heaters including traditional tank units, tankless systems, hybrid heat pump models, and commercial units. Whether you have a Rheem, Bradford White, AO Smith, Rinnai, Navien, or any other brand, our technicians have the experience and tools to diagnose and repair the problem. We stock common parts for most popular models and can source specialized components quickly when needed. Electric, gas, and propane units are all within our expertise, and we’re familiar with the specific requirements of each fuel type.
First, turn off the power to electric units or the gas supply to gas units. Then shut off the water supply valve at the top of the tank. If water is pooling around the base, try to contain it with towels or a tarp to protect your flooring. Don’t attempt to repair leaks yourself, especially on gas units. Small leaks from fittings can sometimes be tightened, but leaks from the tank itself usually mean replacement is needed. Call us right away for emergency service – water heater leaks can cause significant property damage if not addressed quickly, and the problem rarely fixes itself.
Absolutely. We understand that losing hot water isn’t something you can plan around, especially during New England winters.

Emergency calls do carry additional fees, but we’re upfront about all costs before starting any work.
