A tank water heater usually tells you what is wrong: no hot water, water that runs lukewarm, a pilot that will not stay lit, a leak at the base, or rumbling from the tank. We trace the symptom to the failed part, whether that is the thermocouple, gas control valve, burner, heating element, thermostat, or relief valve, and repair it on the first visit when the part is on the truck. We service Rheem, Bradford White, AO Smith, and State Industries tanks.
Pilot and thermocouple repair on gas tanks that will not stay lit
Gas control valve and burner service
Heating element and thermostat replacement on electric tanks
Temperature and pressure relief valve replacement
Drain valve and supply connection leak repair
Flue and venting inspection for proper draft
Before we leave, the heater is run through a full heat cycle and hot water is confirmed at the tap.
Why Professional Water Heater Repair Matters
Most tank failures start small: a worn thermocouple, a sticking relief valve, or sediment that makes the burner work harder. Caught early, these are part repairs. Left alone, they can end with a cold shower or water on the floor. When the tank itself is leaking, repair is no longer an option, and we will tell you that up front.
Restores hot water with a part repair instead of a full replacement
Catches a failing relief valve before it becomes a safety problem
Confirms the gas supply, venting, and combustion are working safely
Stops small leaks before they damage floors and walls
Gives you a clear repair or replace answer with a written quote
If the tank is leaking or the heater is near the end of its life, we will explain your options and quote a replacement through our water heater installation service.

FAQs
Why is my water heater not making hot water?
On a gas tank, the most common causes are a pilot that has gone out, a failed thermocouple, or a faulty gas control valve. On an electric tank, it is usually a burned out heating element or thermostat. A technician can test each part and tell you which one failed.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
If the problem is a part, such as a valve, element, or thermocouple, repair is usually the better choice. If the tank itself is leaking, it has to be replaced. Age matters too: a tank water heater typically lasts 10 to 15 years, so an older unit with a major failure is often better replaced.
Do you repair tankless water heaters too?
Yes. Tankless units have their own parts and error codes, so they are covered on our tankless water heater repair page.

We had a serious issue with gas leaks and Sara’s Best Plumbing responded incredibly quickly. Their team, led by project manager Jessica, was at our house within two hours, which immediately helped ease a very stressful situation.
Susana Monteiro
Sara’s Best Plumbing installed a new water heater for us more than a year ago. The pipe on the top of it started leaking, so I called at 9am yesterday. They came out the same day and fixed the issue under warranty. No charge.
Vicki Bagley
Absolutely amazing. Extremely reliable and performs excellent work. We have had several complicated and difficult issues arise with our older home, and Sarah and her team have always been able to work with us and fix it.
Stephanie Marchione
Pedro was on time, efficient, and very professional. He explained the different components of my water heater, which helps for any future issues or changes I may want to make. Will definitely use Sara’s Best Plumbing in the future.
