Water Heater Repair
We repair electric water heaters that do not heat, give too little hot water, leak or trip the power. This page covers electric water heaters. Safety comes first with water and electricity together.
Common symptoms
- No hot water
- Not enough hot water
- Water too hot or temperature changing
- Leaking from the tank or fittings
- Rumbling or popping noises
- Tripping the breaker
- Rusty or discoloured water
- Pressure relief valve dripping
Possible causes
- A failed heating element.
- A faulty thermostat.
- Scale build-up on the element and in the tank.
- Worn seals and fittings.
- A corroded tank.
- A faulty safety valve or electrical supply problem.
How we diagnose and repair

We confirm the type of heater and the symptoms.
- 2
We check the power supply, thermostat and heating element.
- 3
We inspect fittings, the safety valve and signs of leaks or corrosion.
- 4
We explain the fault, give an estimate and repair after your approval.
Repair or replace?
Elements, thermostats and valves can be replaced. A leaking or badly corroded tank usually means the heater needs replacing, and we can discuss installing a new electric water heater.
Do not open the electrical compartment, touch exposed wiring or try to dismantle a pressurised tank. If there is an electrical hazard or a serious leak, switch off the power at the breaker, close the water inlet and contact us.
Care tips
- Do not set the temperature higher than you need.
- Have scale and the safety valve checked from time to time.
- Watch for rust, drips or damp patches.
- Keep the area around the heater dry and clear.
