Get The Hot Water Back On
Cold showers, water that comes through rusty, or a puddle spreading out from under the unit. Hot water systems usually give you some warning before they stop altogether.
We repair and replace gas, electric, continuous flow and heat pump systems. Where a repair makes sense, like a failed element, thermostat or valve, we will tell you that rather than sell you a unit you do not need yet.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the type of system, its size, and how much has to change to fit it in. Swapping like for like is the cheapest option, and moving from electric to a continuous flow or heat pump system costs more up front. We will price your options before you commit to anything.
A failed element, thermostat, valve or thermocouple is usually worth repairing on a system that still has years in it. Once a tank itself is rusted through or leaking, it has to be replaced. We will tell you which one you are looking at.
Most storage units run somewhere between eight and fifteen years depending on the type, the water and whether the anode has ever been changed. If yours is past ten years and playing up, it is worth planning the replacement rather than waiting for it to fail.
It comes down to what the house is connected to, how many people use hot water at once, and where the unit can go. Continuous flow suits households that never want to run out, and heat pumps cost less to run but need space and airflow. We will talk through what fits your place.
Yes, we are contactable 24 hours. A leaking tank in particular should not be left, because the water keeps coming until the unit is isolated.
Yes. We cover the northern and western suburbs, from Taylors Hill, Burnside and Caroline Springs through to Avondale Heights, Essendon, Strathmore and Gladstone Park. Call and ask if your suburb is not on that list.
A Closer Look At Our Hot Water Work
Hot Water Repairs & Replacements
Hot water rarely fails without warning. The showers get shorter, the water runs rusty, or you find the unit weeping onto the floor. Acting at that point means you get to choose the replacement rather than take whatever is available in a hurry.
We repair and replace gas, electric, continuous flow and heat pump systems, and we will tell you when a repair is the better spend.

Sizing matters more than most people expect. A unit that is too small runs out halfway through the evening, and one that is too large costs more to run than it needs to. The right size depends on how many people are in the house and when they use hot water.
We install new gas, electric, continuous flow and heat pump systems, including changeovers from one type to another where the house suits it.
