Cold showers, a rumbling tank, a pilot light that won't stay lit, or a tankless unit throwing an error code — a failing water heater rarely fixes itself, and most failures give warning signs first. Our Mill Valley technicians diagnose both tank and tankless systems on the first visit.
Our Mill Valley technicians are trained across both fuel types and both system designs, not specialized in just one.
A total loss of hot water gets priority routing since it affects daily life immediately.
You'll know the diagnostic and likely repair cost before we open the access panel.
We won't recommend a costly repair on a unit that's already past its expected service life — you'll get an honest comparison.
These are the water heater problems we diagnose most often across Mill Valley, CA.
We service both gas and electric tank systems, replacing the specific failed component rather than the whole unit when possible.
Tankless systems need descaling and flow sensor cleaning periodically — we service both the repair and that maintenance.
A pilot light that won't stay lit is usually a failed thermocouple, a straightforward and affordable fix.
Sediment buildup at the tank bottom reduces efficiency and causes rumbling; a flush and inspection often restores performance.
We isolate the source of a water heater leak first, since it's not always the tank itself failing.
We carry common elements, thermocouples, and igniters on the truck specifically for same-visit no-hot-water repairs.
A quick call gets a technician scheduled, usually same-day for a total loss of hot water.
Our technician arrives with common repair parts for both tank and tankless systems already on the truck.
The unit is diagnosed, and you'll get a clear repair price — or an honest replacement recommendation if the unit's beyond economical repair.
The repair is completed and tested for proper temperature and pressure, backed by a written parts-and-labor warranty.
