  • We have 20+ years of experience working with water heaters across Rochester, and can help with all gas and electric models. We’ll find the issue and conduct a complete, safe repair.

  • Tankless water heaters typically last longer than tank units, but they still suffer from issues, including scale buildup and system overloads. Call today for expert tankless water heater repair in Rochester.

  • Mineral buildup leaves sediment in tanks and pipes and could limit waterflow, lowering pressure and water temperature. Our technicians can flush the unit to restore functionality, and we also offer preventative flushing services.

Common Water Heater Problems We Repair

Low or no hot water is the most common problem related to water heaters. It happens with all types, makes, and models, and is often the result of faulty elements or leaks. Error codes, pilot lights that won’t stay lit, and visible leaks around the unit also indicate a problem.

Either way, if you have low or no hot water in Rochester, NY, call Mr. Rooter®.

Emergency Water Heater Repair – 24/7 Availability

Every water heater issue can feel like an emergency, especially during the cold weather when you need a hot shower to kick start your day or a soothing bath to end it.

Some of the most serious issues include leaks and flooding around your unit, no hot water, and failed units in rental/multi-family properties. We’re available 24/7 (including weekends and holidays) to deal with all of these issues and offer a priority response for those in need, such as homes with infants or seniors.

Water Heater Repair for All System Types

We repair, replace, and install all manner of water heaters, from traditional tank models to tankless models. Whether it’s gas or electric, new or old—we can help. Our expert repair and installation covers all major brands—Rheem, AO Smith, Navien, Rinnai, Bradford White—but we don’t discriminate.

If you need expert water heater repair in Rochester, NY, we’re the ones to call.

Repair vs Replacement – What’s Best?

In most cases, a repair is sufficient. It’s often the cheapest and quickest approach, and will restore functionality in less than a couple of hours. But if your unit is old, heavily corroded, and regularly breaks down, we may recommend a replacement.

We’ll always discuss your options with you in advance, and can find a solution that fits your needs and budget.

Our same-day water heater service is available throughout Rochester and surrounding areas, including Brighton, Henrietta, Webster, Greece, Penfield, Pittsford, and more. If you’re in our service area or live nearby, get in touch.

Cost of Water Heater Repair in Rochester, NY

The extent of the damage will determine the cost of repair. You may only be charged a couple of hundred dollars for minor replacements—the most common repairs—but the cost could exceed $1,000 for major repair work, and that could double or triple if you need an entirely new unit.

Money is tight, and hot water is essential, so we understand you may be anxious about costly repairs. At Mr. Rooter®, we’re always upfront with our pricing and offer a flat rate for most common issues. For extensive work, we’ll give you an upfront quote before we start work and can promise that you’ll never pay more than what you see.
