When you need a qualified professional to maintain, repair, or replace your old water heater with a new water heater, Grove has the staff, tools, and know-how to help resolve your water heater issues quickly and efficiently.
Many Columbia homes still rely on aging water heater systems. Whether you have a conventional unit nearing the 10-year mark or a tankless unit showing signs of wear, our team can handle it all.
Here are some of the most common problems we fix:
Often caused by a failed heating element, bad pilot light, faulty thermostat, or gas control valve, this is the most urgent and obvious issue. Our techs will quickly identify the cause and get your hot water flowing again.
This can stem from sediment buildup in the tank, a malfunctioning thermostat, or the current water heater is undersized for your home’s demands.
Discolored water from a hot water tap is usually a sign that your tank’s anode rod is deteriorating or tank corrosion—something we frequently see in older systems near the Columbia Town Center.
A leaking tank, loose drain valve, or failing T&P valve can cause water damage quickly. We address leaks before they lead to major repair costs or mold.
Popping or rumbling sounds may indicate sediment buildup at the bottom of your tank, which can reduce efficiency and overheat the system.
Many benefits indicate the value of repairing a water heater over replacing it. The first of those benefits is the value you gain.
A water heater that does its job efficiently uses a little energy as needed to keep you in hot water. Conversely, a water heater that is not efficient burns more energy and causes higher energy bills.
When Grove repairs your hot water heater, it returns it to a state where it performs at its highest efficiency. That process gives you greater access to hot water when you need it. There is less time waiting for the tank to refill and heat up to its ideal temperature. The hot water heater does that job much faster.
Part of repairing the unit means draining it and flushing the tank. That process removes air in the lines and any debris that may clog the in-flow or out-flow valves. As a result, the water pressure stays at its adjusted range with nothing blocking the lines.
Flushing the system and cleaning the tank removes much of the mineral buildup and rust that can cause dirty and rusty water. The result is cleaner water, which is nicer for bathing, laundry, cooking, and washing dishes.
When it comes to water heaters, Grove has exceptional experience in repairing all types of water heaters, no matter the style or brand. We bring over 50 years of experience to every job. We work on all tank water heaters and tankless models, regardless of age or brand.
Each of our technicians is certified, experienced, and further trained to meet the high expectations of Grove. We are a company-focused, locally owned company, and that is a formula that earns us long and positive relationships with our clients.
Our extensive experience means that we are familiar with whatever brand or model of water heater you have, and we know the little tricks to repair it. Whether you have a gas water heater or electric water heater, count on us to put an end to any problems.
Traditional water heaters are still the most common systems we repair. Whether you’re in a Colonial home off Cedar Lane or a ranch-style residence in Running Brook, your tank water heater may need part replacement, sediment flushing, or thermostat repair.
We see these increasingly in modern homes near Maple Lawn or Downtown Columbia. While efficient, they have their own quirks—especially when it comes to flow sensors, heat exchangers, and error code diagnostics. Fortunately, we’re trained and equipped to handle these issues.
Great service shouldn’t be complicated. Our water heater repair process is fast, clear, and completely hassle-free—from your first call to the final fix. Whether you live near Lake Kittamaqundi or in the heart of Harper’s Choice, you can count on our team to show up when we say we will, explain every step in plain language, and get your hot water restored quickly.
