Hot water shouldn’t be a gamble.

You turn the shower on. It runs cold, or it runs rusty, or the pilot light won’t stay lit for the third time this month. That’s not a “wait and see” problem — that’s a water heater telling you it’s done, or close to it.

Texas Plumbing & Drain repairs, replaces, and installs water heaters and water tanks across Aledo, Weatherford, Fort Worth, and the rest of the west DFW Metroplex. Tank or tankless, gas or electric, 40 gallons or a whole-house setup — we work on what’s already bolted to your wall, and we install what comes next.

WHAT WE ACTUALLY DO HERE

Water Heater Repair

Not every water heater needs to be replaced — a lot of “no hot water” calls turn out to be a bad thermocouple, a tripped high-limit switch, a failed heating element, or sediment buildup choking off the tank. We diagnose it on site, tell you straight whether it’s a repair or a replacement, and give you the price before we touch anything.

Water Heater Replacement

When a tank’s rusted through, leaking from the bottom, or just old enough that repairing it is throwing money at a problem that’s coming back next winter — we’ll tell you that too. Replacement means matching the right size and recovery rate to your household, not just swapping in whatever’s on the truck.

Water Heater & Water Tank Installation

New construction, remodel, or a straight swap-out — we install standard tank water heaters (gas and electric) to code, with proper venting, expansion tanks where required, and pan/drain setups that protect your floors if something ever goes wrong down the road.

Water Heater Maintenance

Sediment is the enemy of every tank water heater in this part of Texas — our water’s hard, and hard water builds scale fast. A yearly flush and anode rod check adds years to the tank’s life and keeps your recovery time from slowly creeping up without you noticing.

(Looking for a tankless unit specifically? That’s its own page — see Tankless Water Heater Installation & Repair.)

FAQ — STRAIGHT ANSWERS

How do I know if it’s a repair or I need a whole new water heater?

Rule of thumb: if the tank itself is leaking, it’s replacement time — you can’t patch a rusted tank. If the problem is a part (thermostat, element, gas valve, pilot assembly), it’s usually a repair, especially if the unit’s under 8 years old. We’ll give you our honest read, not the more expensive one.

How long does a water heater actually last?

Most standard tank units run 8–12 years in this area, depending on your water hardness and whether it’s had any maintenance. If yours is past 10 and starting to act up, replacement is usually the smarter money.

Why is my hot water rusty or discolored?

Almost always the anode rod has worn out and the tank itself has started to corrode from the inside. Once you’re seeing rust in the water, the tank’s on borrowed time.

Can you install a bigger water heater than what I have now?

Yes — if you’ve added a bathroom, a family member, or you’re just tired of running out of hot water mid-shower, we’ll size a tank (or talk you through going tankless) to actually match how your house uses hot water.

Do you work on both gas and electric water heaters?

Yes, both. Gas installs include proper venting and gas line connection; we’ll check your existing line sizing on any gas swap to make sure it’s up to it.

What’s that popping or rumbling noise from my water heater?

That’s sediment sitting on the bottom of the tank, heating and shifting under the burner. It’s not dangerous today, but it means efficiency is dropping and a flush is overdue — left long enough, it accelerates tank failure.

Do you offer same-day service?

For no-hot-water calls, yes, whenever we can get to you same day — nobody wants to wait three days for a shower that works.

They were great! Hot water heater replacement in attic of 2 story house—so not an easy job. Master plumbers and were in and out quickly, saved me money, even vacuumed up after finishing! Hope I don’t need them again but will be my first call if I do.
