How to Decide Between Water Heater Repair or Replacement

The first thing to consider is whether you need to replace your water heater or just fix the issues you are having with your current one. If you have a well-functioning water heater, then you don’t necessarily need to replace it. However, if your water heater isn’t working properly, then you should probably get it replaced. Here are some reasons why you might want to replace your old water heater rather than repair it.

Your water heater is older than 10 years. Older water heaters tend to break more often than newer ones. You may not even know that your water heater is broken until you notice that your hot water doesn’t arrive at the right temperature.

You have a gas water heater. Gas water heaters are much easier to install than electric water heaters. If you’re having trouble installing your new water heater, then you may want to choose a gas water heater over an electric one.

You’re worried about the cost of replacing your water heater. Repairing your water heater could end up costing you hundreds of dollars. If you’ve already paid for your water heater, then you shouldn’t have to spend loads of money on repairs.

If you’re considering buying a new water heater, then make sure that you buy a quality product. Look for a high-efficiency model that uses less electricity and saves you money on your monthly utility bills.

When choosing between water heater repair and replacement, you should always look for a reputable company that offers both services. A good contractor will give you a free estimate before starting work. Make sure that the estimate includes everything that needs to be done.

Before you hire a contractor, ask them how long they’ve been doing business. Ask them if they offer warranties on their work. Also, find out if they offer financing options.

Check online reviews. Read customer testimonials to learn more about the contractor’s reputation.

Look for a contractor who provides written estimates. Get a copy of the estimate so that you can compare prices.

I called the number and had to leave a message. Within 10 minutes someone called me back. They came out within a few hours and fixed my drain. Clay, my technician, was professional, and knowledgeable with a great attitude (especially on a hot Friday afternoon)! Fixed my problem in no time. Their service is outstanding. And prices are reasonable for the area. I would definitely use them again!

Stephanie Mellott First of all, they were ON TIME. In fact, the first visit was early! A slab leak is scary, but within the week, I was scheduled for repair. It took a matter of hours. All of the plumbers were polite and worked quickly and cleanly. When the contractor came to assess the damage to the house, he was so impressed by the lack of damage to my home that he asked me for the name of ASAP twice! Highly recommend this company and their services.
