Water Heater Repair in Barrie, ON

Water Heater Repair FAQs

• How long does a water heater repair take? Most repairs are done in one to two hours. If a part has to be ordered, we will tell you up front and get it as fast as we can.
• I have no hot water. Can it be fixed? Often, yes. No hot water is commonly a failed heating element, thermostat, pilot, or igniter, and most of those are straightforward repairs.
• How do I know whether to repair or replace my water heater? A tank under about 8 to 12 years old is usually worth repairing. For older tanks, or a tank leaking from the body, replacement is often the better value, and we will tell you honestly.
• My water heater is leaking. Is that serious? It can be. A leak from a fitting or valve is usually repairable, but a leak from the tank itself normally means it is time to replace it. Either way, have it looked at quickly.
• Why is my hot water rusty or discoloured? That often points to a corroding tank or a spent anode rod. It is worth checking, because it can be an early sign the tank is failing.
• My hot water runs out quickly. Can you help? Yes. Short hot water usually comes down to a failing element, a broken dip tube, or sediment buildup, all of which we can address.
• Is it safe to keep using a water heater that is acting up? With a gas unit especially, do not ignore problems. Have it checked before you keep using it, for both safety and to avoid further damage.
• Do you offer a warranty on repairs? Yes. Every repair we complete is backed by our Lifetime Repair Guarantee, and new systems we install carry warranties up to 15 years. Some conditions apply.
• What areas do you serve? We cover Barrie and the surrounding Simcoe County area.
