Repair, replace, or maintain
Same-day repair
No hot water, banging, or rusty water. We diagnose pilot lights, thermocouples, heating elements, anode rods, and pressure relief valves.
Tank replacement
40-gallon and 50-gallon gas, electric, and hybrid tanks. The old unit is hauled away. The work carries a 5-year workmanship warranty.
Tankless
Rinnai, Navien, and Rheem tankless systems, sized and vented for the house. Endless hot water is the reason people switch.
Maintenance
An annual flush, anode check, and pressure-valve test matters here because Florida hard water fills tanks with sediment. We will also tell you when repair no longer makes sense.
Signs the water heater in Longboat Key is failing
- Rust-colored hot water — the anode is gone and the tank is corroding
- Banging or popping — sediment is overheating, which hard water speeds up
- Hot water runs out faster than it used to
- The unit is over 10 years old. In this climate that is already late
- Water pooling at the base — the tank is split
- The pilot will not stay lit
- The energy bill keeps climbing
