  • Diagnosis: Power, gas, thermostats and elements tested
  • Typical visit: One to two hours

The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

No hot water is almost always a small part failing: a heating element, thermostat, thermocouple, igniter, pilot assembly or a sediment-clogged tank. Many of those repairs are quick and affordable, and they can add years to a heater that is otherwise healthy.

We diagnose gas and electric tank heaters and tankless units in Nashville homes, tell you what failed and what it costs, and give you an honest view on repair versus replacement. A leaking tank is the exception: that heater is finished and needs replacement.

Good questions

Water Heater Repair: common questions

How long does a water heater last?

Tank heaters commonly last around eight to twelve years, and tankless units often last longer with regular maintenance. Age, water quality and upkeep all matter.

When should I replace instead of repair?

A leaking tank, a heater past about twelve years with repeating problems or a repair that costs close to a new unit usually points to replacement. We explain the numbers so you can choose.
