Replace your water heater in Makaha when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.

"I noticed some pooling water in my front yard. Called them and a plumber was here within an hour. Found the leak at the connection of the water main into the house about 4 feet down. Was here about six hours and did a fantastic job. Very much appreciate the prompt response and dedicated service."
