Common Water Heater Problems

  • No hot water - If you turn on the faucet and no hot water comes out, there is probably an issue with your heating element or thermostat.
  • Inadequate hot water - If you are not getting enough hot water, it could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat, sediment buildup in the tank or a broken dip tube.
  • Strange noises - If your water heater has been making unusual noises, such as popping or rumbling sounds, it could be due to sediment buildup or a faulty heating element.
  • Leaks - A leaky water heater can be the victim of a damaged tank or a malfunctioning temperature and pressure relief valve.

Types of Water Heaters We Repair

Typically, you will have a gas or electric hot water heater. Either way, they will be one of two types of units:



  • Tank or Storage - This is the most popular model of hot water heater. These are the large tanks that contain water and usually are installed in a basement, storage area or garage. They can be powered by electricity or natural gas.
  • Tankless Water Heater - While a tank water heater can run out of hot water, a tankless water heater does not because they heat water on demand. This is the primary advantage of a tankless model.


If you have a solar-powered or heat pump water heater, we can work on those too. Call for a FREE estimate!

Common Water Heater Repair Options

  • Heating element replacement - If your water heater's heating element is faulty, it will need to be replaced so we can restore your hot water supply.
  • Thermostat replacement - A malfunctioning thermostat can cause your water heater to produce an insufficient amount of hot water or even no hot water at all. We can diagnose the issue and replace your thermostat.
  • Sediment removal - Over time, sediment can build up in your tank, reducing its efficiency and its lifespan. We can flush out the tank to remove sediment buildup, restoring your water heater's performance.
  • Tank replacement - If your water heater is old or even damaged beyond repair, we can replace the entire tank for you.

FAQs About Water Heater Repair

  • How can I tell if my water heater needs repairs?

    Look for signs such as a lack of hot water, strange noises coming from the unit, discolored water, leaks or any water pooling around the tank. If you notice any of these things, call us to schedule an inspection.

  • Can I fix my water heater myself?

    Some minor repairs can be done yourself, such as replacing the pilot light or thermocouple, but most repairs require specialized knowledge and experience. Attempting to repair your water heater yourself without proper training can be dangerous and you could cause more damage or even hurt yourself.

  • How much does it cost to repair a water heater?

    The cost of fixing a water heater varies depending on the repairs needed and extent of the damage. Call us for a FREE accurate estimate.

  • How long does it take to repair a water heater?

    The amount of time it takes to fix your water heater depends on the repairs required as well as the availability of replacement parts. Minor repairs can be done in a few hours, while more complex ones may take several days.

  • Should I repair or replace my water heater?

    This depends on several factors, such as the age of the unit, the extent of the damage and the cost of the repairs. If your water heater is over a decade old and requires extensive repairs, it may be more cost-effective to replace it altogether. U-Gotta Plumber can help you decide the right course of action.
