Can you install and service both traditional and tankless water heaters?
Yes. Our plumbers are factory trained and certified to install, maintain, and repair both conventional storage-tank heaters and high-efficiency tankless models. We pull the required Collegedale permits, size the unit correctly for your household’s demand, handle gas or electrical connections, flush the system, and remove the old heater for recycling. We also offer annual maintenance plans to keep warranties valid and extend equipment life.
How do I know when I should call a professional plumber instead of trying a DIY fix?
While a plunger or simple aerator cleaning is fine for small issues, you should call a licensed plumber when you notice: persistent clogs that return quickly, water stains or damp drywall, reduced water pressure in multiple fixtures, unexplained spikes in your water bill, gurgling drains, sewer odors, rusty or discolored water, or any situation where water is actively leaking. Professional tools—such as video cameras, hydro-jetters, and electronic leak detectors—allow us to locate and correct problems accurately without causing further damage, saving you time, money, and frustration.
