- Lower Operating Costs – In areas with affordable natural gas, monthly bills are typically lower.
- High Capacity Options – Ideal for larger families who use more hot water.
Common Gas Water Heater Issues We Repair

- Burner problems leading to lukewarm water.
- Sediment buildup reduces efficiency.

Electric Water Heaters
Electric water heaters remain a trusted and reliable choice for many homeowners. They’re especially popular in areas without natural gas access or in homes where energy efficiency and safety are a priority.

Tankless Water Heaters
For homeowners looking for cutting-edge technology and unlimited hot water, tankless water heaters are an excellent solution. Instead of storing water in a tank, these systems heat water on demand — giving you endless hot water, whenever you need it.
Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters
- Unlimited Hot Water – Never run out, even during back-to-back showers.
- Energy Efficient – Only heats water when you turn on the tap, saving energy compared to traditional tanks.
- Space Saving – Compact units free up floor space in your utility room.
- Long Lifespan – Often lasts longer than traditional tank water heaters when properly maintained.
Cons of tankless water heaters
- Error codes or ignition problems.
- Inconsistent water temperatures.
- Undersized units struggling to keep up with demand.
- Higher upfront cost
- Uses more gas. Most tankless water heaters use 199,000 BTU’s
Signs That You Might Need a Water Heater Service or Repair
- Inconsistent water temperature – Hot one moment, cold the next.
- Strange noises – Rumbling, popping, or banging sounds often mean sediment buildup.
- Discolored or rusty water – Indicates corrosion inside the tank.
- Leaks or puddles – Even small leaks can become major problems if ignored.
- Unit age – Most traditional water heaters last 8–12 years. If yours is older, replacement may be more cost-effective than repeated repairs.
