What We Repair

If it heats water, we work on it. Here is where most calls land.

Tank Water Heaters

Gas and electric tanks: elements, thermostats, gas valves, thermocouples and relief valves. If the tank itself is leaking, we tell you straight.

  • • No hot water or not enough
  • • Pilot that will not stay lit
  • • Leaks at fittings and valves
  • • Popping and rumbling (sediment flush)

Tankless Water Heaters

Error codes, ignition trouble and scale buildup on gas and electric tankless units. We descale and flush them too.

  • • Error codes and shutdowns
  • • No hot water or temperature swings
  • • Descaling and flush service
  • • Flow sensor and ignition problems

When a repair is throwing good money after bad, we say so, quote a new unit, and same-day install is available.

  • • Tank, tankless and heat pump units
  • • Same-day installation available
  • • Expansion tanks and shutoff valves
  • • Price before any work starts

Common Problems We Fix

What the symptom usually means, in plain English.

No Hot Water

Failed element, thermostat, gas valve or igniter. Usually a same-day fix.

Runs Out Fast

Sediment, a failing element, or a tank that is too small for the house.

Popping or Rumbling

Sediment cooking on the bottom of the tank. A flush often quiets it down.

Water Around the Base

A fitting, a valve, or the tank itself. We find out which before you spend a dime.

Rusty Hot Water

Corrosion inside the tank or a spent anode rod. Often a replacement conversation.

Pilot Will Not Stay Lit

Thermocouple or gas control. Shut the gas control to OFF and give us a call.

Common questions about this service

It depends on the part. Elements, thermostats, relief valves, igniters and thermocouples cost far less than a new unit. We diagnose first and give you a flat price before any work starts.
If the unit is under about 8 years old and the problem is one part, repair usually wins. If it is around 10 or older, rusting, leaking from the tank, or breaking down again and again, replacement is usually the better money.
Tank water heaters commonly last 8 to 12 years. Tankless units can last twenty years or more with regular descaling. Water quality and maintenance make the difference.
Yes, in most cases. Call early in the day and we can often have hot water back the same day in Vancouver, Battle Ground, Camas, Ridgefield, Longview and nearby.
Yes. Error codes, no hot water, ignition problems and scale buildup on gas and electric tankless units. We also descale and flush them to keep them running right.
Close the cold-water valve on top of the heater, turn off the breaker or set the gas control to OFF, then call us. A leak at a fitting or valve is often a quick repair. A leaking tank usually means replacement.
Both, tank and tankless. We install gas and electric water heaters, but do not run new gas lines.
