Repair for Gas & Electric Water Heaters

Our licensed plumbers are trained to handle both gas water heater repair and electric water heater repair:

Gas Water Heater Repair

Gas systems often fail due to issues with the pilot light, burner assembly, thermostat, or gas connections. If you notice no hot water, inconsistent temperatures, or the smell of gas, call us immediately for professional service.

Electric Water Heater Repair

Electric units rely on heating elements and electrical components that can wear out over time. Tripped breakers, faulty thermostats, or burned-out elements commonly require professional repair.

No matter the issue, our team provides thorough diagnostics, explains your options clearly, and gets your hot water working again as soon as possible.

Signs You Need Water Heater Repair

Water heaters often give warning signs before breaking down completely. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule water heater repair:

  • Water isn’t getting hot enough
  • The system runs out of hot water quickly
  • Rumbling, popping, or banging noises
  • Leaks around the tank
  • Discolored or rusty water
  • Fluctuating water temperatures
  • Higher-than-normal utility bills

These symptoms usually indicate heating element failure, sediment buildup, thermostat issues, or worn components. The sooner you call for service, the easier the repair usually is.

Prevent Costly Repairs with Water Heater Maintenance

Water Heater Repair in San Diego

Just like any major appliance, your water heater performs best with regular care. Our water heater service includes a full system inspection, cleaning, and performance check to keep your system running efficiently year-round.

Routine maintenance helps:

  • Extend the lifespan of your water heater
  • Improve efficiency and reduce energy costs
  • Prevent mineral and sediment buildup
  • Reduce the chance of emergency breakdowns

For tank-style water heaters, especially, annual flushing is essential to prevent corrosion and protect the tank from premature failure. For tankless systems, descaling helps maintain peak performance.

I am very pleased with this company because they have great people working for them. [My technician] was organized and all were at the house in 2 days. Paper booties were worn. The electricians knew what they were doing and produce excellent work. I had 3 new circuits put in along with updating box. All this was done in one day. This co also sends a pix of technician who is coming to your house. Every person had lovely manners, and cleaned up, even vacuumed under stove when it was moved. A fine experience and I’d use them again.

I had a water leak at my house and its cause was extremely difficult to find. Our tech spent a long time carefully analyzing and testing all possible options until he found the cause of the leak, like really a true detective, that nobody else before him was able to find. He demonstrated not only that he is a truly top professional but the he also is kind, patient and understanding. He explained all the issues very well and was also mindful of my time and convenience. He works very fast, efficiently and reliably and is extremely nice human being.

Point Loma Electric and Plumbing did electrical work in our house once and we liked the service the first time so we called them again. The technicians have been nothing but friendly and professional both times. They walked us through every step of the process. They showed up on time and completed the work in a timely manner. If we had any concerns they made sure the address them, if anything was needed, they handled it. We will definitely use Point Loma Electric and Plumbing again. Johnny who oversaw the work is the best!! Thank you

Had an emergency water heater leak. Called Point Loma. Within the hour, James shows up and goes to work. And by the next day, we have a tankless water heater up and running. Thanks to James for the excellent customer attention, service and hard work!

Always great to work with them - years 2011 for new electrical panel, and 2025 for some minor upgrades. Erich and Leo corrected 3 problems with old wiring we were having. Very great team and very much appreciate their work.

My a/c has not been working for some time. I called Point Loma Electrical and they sent Nicholas Mullins to stop by and check it out. What a great guy. He was very respectful, honest, evaluated the situation and made recommendations that I felt were straight forward. This company is top notch and I would recommend them to any of my friends and family. This is now my go to ac repair company.

We had Point Loma Elec rewire our entire 62 year-old house's electric. They worked efficiently and were thorough letting us know what was discovered and done each day. Timely, neat, and responsive and affordable with great financing. Highly recommend.

This is a great team. I had to replace some fluorescent lights in the kitchen. I couldn't do it myself because the ballasts had to be replaced and that's above my skill level. Anthony and Matt came today and put in new led lights (with a 10 year warranty- fluorescent lights are ancient tech). Anthony and Matt were very professional and efficient. I would recommend them highly!
