If we have you come out for a free consultation and decide to have the repairs done can the work be completed on the same day?

I am not sure if my water heater can be repaired. Can you diagnose and repair it if needed?

Yes, our technicians will perform a full diagnostic on your water heater. Based on the findings they can let you know what needs to be done to get hot water back into your home. If a repair is not an option, we will explain the findings of the diagnosis and can replace the water heater while we are on site as our technicians carry water heaters on their vans for quick and easy same day service.

How much does it cost for an estimate?

We offer free consultations to give you a clear and full understanding of the issues at hand and what needs to be done to properly correct them. We will provide a clear cost of the repair for your approval prior to any work being done in your home.

Why can’t you provide a price over the phone?

Having a free consultation makes sure that all aspects of the needed work are diagnosed, and the repair plan is clearly laid out with accurate pricing and any questions you may have answered.
