Water Heater Repair
We at Big Blue Plumbing will repair or replace all models of electric, gas, solar, or tankless water heaters as efficiently and as effectively as possible. Sometimes the repair is simple, such as a heating element failing before the rest of the water heater goes. Other times the repairs are more complicated or costly.
You may be in need of water heater repair if you notice issues such as:
- Water that is discolored or has an odd smell -
Having discolored water is a sure sign that something is wrong with your water heater. The water that comes out of your plumbing fixtures should be clear, if looks gray'ish or hazy, contact our Alameda water heater repair team for the help you need. Your water heater could have a sedimentation build up inside of the tank. These minerals usually are what cause the water to be discolored. - Pooling or water damage around the unit -
Usually if you notice water damage or water pooling around your hot water tank, this is due to a leak in the hot water tank. It could be corrosion that has started on the inside of the hot water tank and eaten it's way to the outer parts of the water heater. Give us a call today if you notice your water heater is leaking. - Hot water running out too quickly, or not getting hot enough -
If you are running out of hot water fast, this is most likely due to one of your two heating elements that are found within the hot water heater. If one of them has failed, your hot water heater will not be able to produce enough hot water to stock your household. - Persistent, unusual noises -
All hot water heaters make some noise as they are heating the water. But, if you are hearing loud rumbling or pops coming from your hot water heater, this is a good reason to raise some concern. In most cases, these loud noises are caused by a mineral deposit build up inside of the tank on the heating elements. Call us today and we'll send our Alameda water heater repair technicians to come out and inspect your water heater.
Whatever the issue, our Alameda and Oakland water heater repair team will work to diagnose the problem quickly and correctly, presenting you with an estimate upfront before completing the repair. Unlike some water heater repair services, we won’t blindly go ahead with a costly repair if your water heater isn’t worth the investment.
Delaying water heater repairs can lead to costly damages, such as water and structural damage in your home. It can also impact water quality in the long-term if debris builds up and begins to circulate in your water system- leading to potential health hazards. Proactively getting water heater repairs done right away can help you avoid these hassles and expense- giving you peace of mind now and down the line. Regular maintenance can also prevent premature water heater unit replacement, which not only saves you money but keeps dangerous water related issues at bay.
If your water heater is old or has other significant issues, continuing to sink money into repairs can wind up being more expensive than simply replacing the entire unit. Our experienced technicians at Big Blue Plumbing will talk with you about your options and only complete a repair after consulting with you about the possibilities and expenses
