FAQs

What are the most common signs that my tank water heater needs repair?

Look for water that is lukewarm or quickly runs out, rumbling or popping noises from the tank, rusty-colored or metallic-tasting hot water, pooling water around the unit, and a pilot light that will not stay lit. Any of these symptoms can point to issues such as sediment buildup, thermostat failure, or a leaking tank, all of which our Heiskell technicians can diagnose and fix quickly.

How fast can Quick Repairs Plumbing get to my home in Heiskell for an emergency water heater repair?

We maintain fully stocked service trucks in the Heiskell area and offer 24/7 emergency dispatch. In most cases, a licensed technician can be on site within 60–90 minutes. Because we carry the most common replacement parts on our trucks, many repairs are completed in a single visit so you can regain hot-water service the same day.

Do you work on both gas and electric tank water heaters?

Yes. Our plumbers are trained and certified to repair all major brands of gas, propane, and electric tank-style water heaters, including Rheem, AO Smith, Bradford White, and State. We handle thermostat and element replacements, gas control valve issues, burner assembly cleaning, anode rod changes, and more.

My water heater is over 10 years old. How will I know if it’s better to repair or replace it?

Age, frequency of breakdowns, energy efficiency, and the extent of the current problem all factor into the decision. During our diagnostic visit, we’ll provide a detailed cost comparison between repair and replacement. If the tank is leaking from the shell or the repair cost approaches 50% of a new unit, replacement is usually recommended. We’ll also discuss rebates and energy-efficient models that could lower your utility bills in Heiskell.

Will I be without hot water during the repair process?

Hot water must be turned off while we drain and service the tank, but typical repairs—such as replacing thermostats, heating elements, or gas controls—take 1–2 hours. For more extensive work, we can often set up a temporary bypass or schedule repairs during low-use periods to minimize disruption for your household.

What maintenance steps can I take after the repair to extend the life of my tank water heater?

Flush the tank at least once a year to remove sediment, test the temperature-pressure relief (TPR) valve annually, keep the thermostat set between 120–125 °F, and have the anode rod inspected every 2–3 years. We offer an affordable annual maintenance plan for Heiskell homeowners that includes these services and priority scheduling for any future repairs.
