Water heaters

Hot water back, without the guesswork

A water heater usually warns you before it quits: lukewarm showers, popping and rumbling from the tank, rusty water or a damp spot on the floor.

Florida water carries a lot of minerals, and the sediment it leaves in the bottom of a tank shortens its life.

We test the unit, find the failed part and tell you plainly whether a repair makes sense. Elements, thermostats, gas valves and anode rods can often be replaced.

When the tank itself leaks, it has to go, and we install the new one with proper connections and a clean finish.

What we handle

Water heater work we do

Gas, electric and tankless water heaters repaired, replaced and installed.

  1. Electric tank heaters

    Element and thermostat repairs, and full replacements in garages, closets and utility rooms.

  2. Gas tank heaters

    Burner, pilot and gas valve service, venting checks and replacements.

  3. Tankless water heaters

    Wall mounted tankless installs and service, for steady hot water and more floor space.

  4. Leaking tanks

    A tank that leaks from the body cannot be patched. We shut it down safely and replace it.

  5. Expansion tanks and valves

    Expansion tanks, shutoff valves and relief valves replaced as part of a clean install.

  6. Flushing and maintenance

    Sediment flushed from the tank and the anode rod checked, to keep the unit running longer.

Signs your water heater needs attention

  • Hot water runs out faster than it used to
  • Popping or rumbling sounds from the tank
  • Rusty or discolored hot water
  • Water pooling around the base of the unit
  • The pilot will not stay lit on a gas heater

FAQ

Water Heater Repair & Replacement questions

Anything else, call (727) 420-1941.

Should I repair or replace my water heater?

If the tank is sound, a failed element, thermostat or valve is usually worth replacing. If the tank leaks or the unit is near the end of its life, replacement is the better spend.

We will tell you which one you are looking at.

Do you install tankless water heaters?

Yes. We install and service tankless units, and we will look at your gas line, venting and space to confirm a tankless unit fits your home before you commit.

Do you work on both gas and electric units?

Both. Our plumbers repair and replace gas and electric water heaters of the common makes you find in Pinellas homes.
