    Primary Service

    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.
