What Tampa customers say
We had great service from Travis! He installed a new on demand gas’s hot water heater in our home. Did an amazing job!
David was beyond professional and very transparent about the issues and solutions to our problem with our tankless water heater.
Called Elite Rooter, David was out within a hour. His customer service was fantastic! He was honest, transparent and best of all not pushy, which was nice! He shared knowledge about what was wrong with our leaking water heater and educated us through it and our available options. Definitely recommend David and ER for any home repair needs.

Questions before booking
Water heater repair questions
These answers cover the decision points customers usually need before scheduling.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
A repair is often reasonable when the unit is in good condition and the failed part is replaceable. Repeated leaks, corrosion, age, and a major component failure can shift the decision toward replacement.
Is a leaking water heater an emergency?
Shut off the water and energy source if it is safe to do so. Active leaking can damage the surrounding area, so it should be assessed promptly.
Why does my water heater make a popping or rumbling sound?
Sediment or mineral buildup can trap water near the bottom of a tank and create noise as it heats. A technician can check whether maintenance or replacement is appropriate.
Can you work on tankless water heaters?
Yes. Tankless service can include error-code diagnosis, descaling, flow checks, ignition issues, venting, and replacement planning.
Will a replacement water heater need a permit?
Permit requirements vary by city, equipment, fuel type, and project scope. Confirm the requirement for the service address before work is finalized.
