Gene's Plumbing handles water heater repair across Gratis and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
The honest call on a Gratis water heater is age-based. Under eight years with a bad part is worth fixing. Past twelve, or weeping at the tank seam, and you are buying time at a bad price.
Every house handles water heater repair a little differently depending on its age, and Gratis has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Gratis truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The water heater repair job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
How the job actually runs, start to finish.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.
The questions homeowners ask about this one.
It depends on what the diagnosis turns up, which is why you get a firm price for your water heater repair job in Gratis before any work starts rather than an hourly rate that runs while you wait.

Feedback from customers who had this work done.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Our water smelled like sulfur since we moved in. They tested it instead of guessing, put in the right filtration, and the smell was gone the same day."
"Solid water heater install. Price fair, work clean. Would have liked a little more warning on the arrival time, but the job itself was right."
