Common Water Heater Problems We Fix
- No hot water or not enough hot water
- Leaks from the tank, valves, or connections
- Pilot light won’t stay lit (gas units)
- Electrical heating element failure (electric units)
- Discolored or smelly water
- Banging or rumbling noises
If your unit is 8+ years old, we’ll also advise whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense.
Common Signs Your Water Heater May Need Repair
Not all water heater problems cause a complete loss of hot water. Watch for these early warning signs:
- Water takes longer than usual to heat up
- Hot water runs out quickly
- Water pressure is lower than normal
- Visible rust on the tank or water discoloration
- Unusual smells coming from your hot water tap
- Sudden noises like popping or knocking during heating cycles
These symptoms can indicate sediment buildup, thermostat issues, or impending part failure. Addressing them early can prevent full breakdowns and extend your unit’s life.

How Long Do Water In Heaters Last?
The average lifespan of a residential water heater is:
- Conventional tank models: 8–12 years
- Tankless water heaters: 15–20 years
Lifespan depends on water quality, usage volume, and maintenance. If your system is nearing its limit and causing issues, a replacement may offer better reliability and energy savings.
Should You Repair or Replace In Your Water Heater?
Consider replacement if:
- Your unit is 10–12+ years old
- Repairs exceed 50% of the cost of a new heater
- The tank is corroded or leaking
- You’re frequently running out of hot water
We’ll help you weigh repair vs. replacement and provide options for both.
