Water Heater Repair & Replacement
No hot water? Strange noises? Rusty water? Marc diagnoses the problem honestly and tells you whether a repair or a replacement is the smarter call — never an upsell. From quick fixes to full tank and tankless replacements, he keeps your home in hot water.
Water Tank Flushing
Sediment buildup kills efficiency and shortens tank life. Marc flushes the tank to restore performance and water quality.
Anode Rod Replacement
The sacrificial anode rod is what keeps your tank from rusting out. Replacing it on schedule can add years of life.
Honest Repair-vs-Replace Guidance
If a $15 rod or a flush solves it, that's what you'll hear — not a sales pitch for a new unit.
Tank & Tankless Expertise
Repair, flush, and replace — all in one call.

Repair-vs-Replace Estimate
Pro tip from Marc: A gurgling tank or rusty hot water usually means sediment or a spent anode rod — often fixable without replacing the whole unit. Let him take a look before you buy.
