Water heater repair & installation
Cold shower this morning? We repair or replace tank and tankless water heaters the same day — most units are on our vans right now.
Repair first, replace only when it makes sense
Our technicians carry elements, thermostats, gas valves, igniters and anode rods for Rheem, A.O. Smith, Bradford White and Rinnai. If a repair costs more than half of a new unit, we tell you — and show you why.
- Same-day replacement on 40 and 50-gallon tanks
- City of Austin permit & code-compliant expansion tank
- Haul-away and recycling of the old unit
- Six-year manufacturer warranty + our two-year labour guarantee
