Water Heater Service
Tank and tankless water heaters repaired and replaced throughout North Georgia. Honest advice on whether to repair or replace. Free estimates, no trip fee.
No hot water. Or worse: hot water that runs out in 10 minutes, a water heater making banging sounds, or water pooling around the base of the tank. These are signs something is failing.
Most homes can't function without hot water, and water heater problems rarely show up at a convenient time. The longer you wait, the worse it gets. What starts as lukewarm showers can end with a failed unit and water on the floor.
Ryan assesses the situation first: repair if it makes financial sense, replace if it doesn't. Same-day and next-day service for situations that can't wait. You'll know the cost before any work starts.
Warning Signs
The pilot light is out, the element has failed, or the unit has stopped working. Needs diagnosis right away.
Hot water that runs out in minutes or never gets fully hot points to a failing heating element or thermostat.
Brown or orange tint from the hot water tap means the tank is corroding from the inside. Usually time to replace.
Sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank. The heater is working harder than it should. Flush or replace soon.
Pooling water near the tank means a leak. Could be a fitting, a valve, or the tank itself. Don't ignore it.
A failing water heater works harder and costs more to run. Unexplained increases in energy bills can point here.
Honest Breakdown
No sales pitch. Here are the facts.
Not sure which is right for your home? Ryan will give you a straight answer based on your usage, home size, and budget. No pressure either way.
Straight Advice
If the water heater is relatively new and the fix is straightforward, repair is the right call. Ryan will give you the numbers and let you decide.
Spending significant money on an aging unit often means another repair is coming soon. Ryan will tell you when replacement makes more financial sense.
A corroded tank cannot be repaired. Replacement is the only option, and the sooner the better to avoid a bigger mess.

What Customers Say
"I had my water heater fail and fill my basement with water. Ryan replaced my water heater with a tankless and repaired my main water shut off valve the next working day. The work was done beautifully, quickly and the area cleaned up neatly when he was done. Super fair pricing as well."
"Ryan tells you what he is going to do, why he needs to do it and what it will cost. Then he shows up when he says he will, does the work correctly, neatly and quickly and bills with no surprises. I wish there were more people like Ryan in the world."
Common Questions
Most replacements take 2 to 3 hours from arrival to hot water running. Tankless installations may take a bit longer if venting or gas line work is needed.
If the unit is under 8 years old and repair costs less than half of replacement, repair usually makes sense. We'll give you an honest recommendation either way, and you decide what makes sense for your situation.
Yes. We install Navien and other major brands. Tankless is a good fit for larger homes, vacation rentals, or anyone who runs out of hot water regularly. We'll help you figure out if it's the right choice for your home.
