Question 1

Is it better to repair or replace a water heater?

Accepted Answer

Reasons to repair your water heater: if your gas or electric water heater has stopped heating and the unit is less than five years old and there are no visible leaks, a repair is often the best option. Reasons to replace your water heater: if the unit is over six years old or there are visible leaks or rust, replacement is typically recommended.

Question 2

How much does water heater repair cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost varies by problem, unit type, and parts required. Minor issues such as a thermostat or heating element can be less expensive, while a leaking tank may require full replacement. We provide upfront, transparent pricing after diagnosis so you know the cost before any work begins. Contact our team for a professional assessment.

Question 3

Do you repair both tank based and tankless water heaters?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our licensed technicians service most residential water heaters including traditional tank water heaters gas and electric and modern tankless models. We are a Navien tankless certified repair and installation company.

Question 4

How long does a water heater last?

Accepted Answer

In North Texas, hard water can shorten the lifespan of standard units. Models from home centers often last six to eight years. Professional grade water heaters installed by Harmony Plumbing are built for mineral rich water and can last twelve years or more with proper care.

Question 5

Why is my water not getting hot?

Accepted Answer

For gas units, check the pilot light. If it is out, follow the manufacturer instructions to relight it. If it will not stay lit, the thermocouple or gas supply may need repair. For electric units, check the breaker in the electrical panel and reset if needed. If power is present, the heating element or thermostat may need replacement. Your water heater may also be at the end of its life. A basic home center tank often lasts about eight years, while some professional grade tanks last up to twelve years. Tankless units can last up to twenty years but need regular flush maintenance. If your tankless has not been flushed annually, it may stop working.
