Orlando Plumbing: Water Heater Repair Or Replace

We get a lot of customers in Orlando Florida that call up about water heaters many of them are leaking and some are just not heating up. So when should you have an Orlando water heater repair or just replace it?  The first question we ask is how old is your water heater. The average water heater life span is 8-10 years. If your water heater is not heating that means it can only be a few things, either a bad circuit breaker or bad thermostats or elements but if your water heater is 7-8 years old you should just think about a water heater replacement especially if it is a 40 or 50 gallon heater because the cost to do a complete water heater rebuild is about $220 and the cost to replace is about $550-$580. Now if you have a 65 gallon heater or higher you might want to just take a chance and rebuild it because they cost about $965 to replace. If your water heater is leaking in Orlando most of the time it will need to be replaced and if the tank is cracked you have to replace. Many of our Orlando customers say the tank looks fine but you cant tell if the tank is leaking from just looking at the heater. The outside part of the water heater is just the jacket and for cosmetic purposes behind the jacket is insulation. Then the steel tank, if the steel tank is leaking you have to replace the heater.
