FAQs

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

Look for inconsistent or no hot water, rumbling or popping noises, rusty-colored water, visible leaks around the tank, or a sudden spike in energy bills. Any of these symptoms can indicate failed heating elements, sediment buildup, a corroded anode rod, or pressure-relief valve issues. Addressing them promptly helps avoid costly damage or complete unit failure.

How quickly can your Maynardville technicians respond if I have no hot water?

We offer same-day service throughout Maynardville and the surrounding Union County area. For true emergencies—such as major leaks or total loss of hot water—we can usually have a licensed plumber on site within 2–4 hours, even on evenings and weekends. Call our 24/7 dispatch line to schedule the fastest available slot.

Do you repair both gas and electric tank water heaters?

Yes. Our team is factory-trained and equipped to service standard atmospheric gas models, power-vent and direct-vent units, as well as all major brands of electric tank heaters. We carry a full stock of common replacement parts—thermocouples, gas control valves, heating elements, thermostats, and anode rods—so most repairs can be completed in a single visit.

How much does a typical water heater repair cost, and will I receive an estimate first?

After a thorough on-site diagnosis we provide a written, flat-rate quote that covers parts, labor, and tax—no hidden fees. Minor repairs (such as element or thermocouple replacement) generally range from $150–$350. More involved work, like replacing a gas control valve or flushing severe sediment, can be $350–$600. You always approve the price before we start any work.

Are your water heater repairs backed by a warranty?

Absolutely. All parts we install carry a manufacturer’s warranty of 1–6 years depending on the component, and our workmanship is guaranteed for a full year. If the same problem recurs within that window, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge.

What maintenance tips can help my tank water heater run efficiently after the repair?

Drain a few gallons from the tank every 6–12 months to flush out sediment, test the temperature-and-pressure relief valve annually, keep the thermostat set around 120 °F, and have the anode rod inspected every 2–3 years. Installing a simple expansion tank, if you don’t already have one, also reduces stress on the system. We’re happy to schedule annual tune-ups to handle these tasks for you.
