A failing water heater in your Dunwoody, GA home can mean no hot water for showers, dishes, and laundry — or worse, a 40-gallon tank leaking across your garage floor. Our Emergency Plumbing Dunwoody GA technicians diagnose and repair all major brands of tank and tankless water heaters.
Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair
- Lukewarm water — a failing heating element or thermostat
- Rusty hot water — corroded anode rod or tank interior
- Rumbling or popping sounds — sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank
- Water pooling around the base — tank corrosion requiring immediate replacement
- Pilot light repeatedly going out — thermocouple or gas valve issue
Repair vs. Replacement
If your water heater is less than 8 years old and the tank itself is intact, repair is usually the most cost-effective option. For units older than 10 years, or those with tank leaks, we recommend replacement with a high-efficiency model that can reduce your energy bills by 15-20%.
