Water Heaters

New Install – Replacement – Go Tankless! Or 50+ gallons
When considering whether to repair or replace a water heater, there are a few factors to keep in mind. If your current water heater is experiencing issues, the first step is to assess the severity of the problem. For example, if it’s an electric or gas unit and is relatively new, a repair might be more cost-effective. However, if it’s older and has frequent issues, replacement might be the better option.
Regarding sizes, a 50-gallon tank is typically sufficient for most households, but if you’re considering a tankless system like the Navien, it can provide on-demand hot water and potentially save space and energy in the long run. Tankless systems often have a higher initial cost but can be more efficient over time.
What specific issues are you facing with your current water heater? That might help narrow down whether a repair or replacement is best for you.
Water Filtration – Remove contaminants from the water supply making it safe to drink.
Water softener – Removes the minerals from water that causes hardness and scale.

"I truly would recommend this company which did a great job on my clogged up tub. The 2 professionals by the name of James and Jose were excellent at what they do best making customers happy. They explained everything I needed to do to prevent hair clogs. I give this company a 5 star rating, hands down. Thanks guys."

- Steven Edwards

"I discovered a leak in the pipe connecting to my water heater at around 3pm on February 3. I called around 3:15pm to see if someone could come out today and they dispatched James out immediately and he arrived shortly after 4pm. He went up in my attic, assessed the situation, and had the corroded supply line and valve that were leaking changed and everything in working order again by 5pm. Pricing was reasonable especially in light of how quickly they got me fixed up. They also warranted the parts they replaced for a year, which gave me additional peace of mind. Cannot thank Texas Plumbing and James enough for such great service."
