FAQ

Water Heater Repair Questions

Straight answers that help customers know when to call, what to expect, and how to avoid letting a small plumbing issue become a bigger problem.

Why is my water heater making popping sounds?

Popping sounds happen when sediment builds up at the bottom of the tank, trapping steam. Flushing the tank will clear the sediment and stop the noise.

Can you repair a leaking water heater tank?

If the tank itself is leaking due to corrosion, it cannot be repaired safely. The water heater must be replaced to prevent flooding.
