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 Mount Vernon technicians diagnose both tank and tankless systems on the first visit.
Our Mount Vernon 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.
If a repair doesn't make financial sense on an aging unit, we'll say so and give you real numbers on replacement instead of patching something near the end of its life.
From a simple pilot light relight to a full heating element replacement, our technicians carry the parts most repairs need on the truck.
Failed heating elements, faulty thermostats, and leaking T&P valves are diagnosed and repaired on standard tank units.
Error codes, flow sensor issues, and scale buildup in tankless units get diagnosed with manufacturer-specific tools.
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.
Tell dispatch the brand, fuel type, and symptoms if you know them — it helps route a technician with the right parts.
Trucks stocked for Mount Vernon, IL's most common brands mean fewer follow-up visits for parts.
We explain what's actually failing and give you the real cost comparison before you decide.
Once hot water is restored and tested, you get a warranty on both the part and the labor.
