Our team is used to addressing a few common issues with water heaters. Each of these requires prompt service, as immediate action can prevent further damage and reduce the cost of repairs. Here are some common water heater problems our customers call about:
The technicians at Village Plumbing can fix any water heater problem. Whether there’s a pilot light or burner issue or you need a new anode rod, our technicians can take care of it.

Each repair job starts with a thorough evaluation of your water heater. Our technicians identify the underlying source of the problem, will fully explain your options, and provide an accurate cost estimate for the repair (or recommend water heater replacement if it’s more cost-effective).

Village Plumbing is here to provide professional water heater repairs when needed. We also offer regular maintenance services, including water heater tune-ups and tank flushes. But you can take steps to maintain your water heater in-between service calls. They can help prevent future repairs, and your system may run more efficiently and last longer if you:
An older unit can often be repaired if just a single part is faulty, the job isn’t too costly, and the system hasn’t had too many repairs. A repair can also be practical if your energy bills are reasonable.
An experienced plumber can complete most water heater repairs in two to three hours.
Tank water heaters generally last from eight to 12 years. A well-maintained water heater can last 10 to 15 years, but that depends on how it’s cared for and the individual make or model. Tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years.
Replace the water heater if it costs more to fix it than install a new unit. Or, if repairs would cost 50% or more of the price of a new unit, consider installing a new water heater. Even if the repair estimate is less than that, consider the unit’s age and how frequently it needs repairs.
A licensed plumber usually has the training to address most water heater issues. They can service heating elements, anode rods, piping, wiring, and gas lines.
Professional repairs and routine maintenance ensure your water heater is reliable, efficient, and long-lasting. At Village Plumbing, we help avoid more expensive repairs. Our technicians can fix any problem, big or small, and are prompt, fast, and effective. Financing options are available to fit much-needed services into your budget.
