Repair or Replace?

Most tank water heaters last 8–12 years. A small fix — a thermostat, heating element, or a flush to clear sediment buildup — is often enough for a unit under 8 years old. Past that, or if the tank itself is leaking, replacement is usually the more cost-effective call, since a failing tank can flood a utility closet or basement without warning. We’ll give you a straight answer either way, with pricing agreed on before we start.
