If your water heater is over 10 years old and having frequent problems, replacement is usually more cost-effective than continued repairs. Signs that point to replacement include lack of hot water, rusty water, strange noises, and visible leaks around the unit.

We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement makes the most financial sense for your circumstances.
