What Lorton homeowners want to know about water heater repair — answered by our licensed plumbers.
A water heater producing no hot water in Lorton can be caused by a tripped circuit breaker for electric units, a failed pilot light or gas valve for gas units, a burned-out heating element, a failed thermostat, or a tripped high-temperature limit switch. Phoenician Plumbing diagnoses the specific cause and repairs it on the same visit whenever possible.
Rusty or discolored hot water in a Lorton home usually indicates an anode rod that has been depleted and the tank is beginning to corrode internally. In some cases it is sediment stirring from the tank bottom. If the unit is over 8 to 10 years old and producing rust-colored water, tank replacement is often the recommended solution.
Water heater repair in Lorton typically costs $150 to $500 depending on the component being replaced. Common repairs like thermostat replacement, heating element swap, or T&P valve replacement are on the lower end. Gas valve or burner assembly replacement costs more.
