Vili was so nice. I had a lot of questions about my water heater and he answered every one. He also showed me how to keep my kitchen sink pipes cleaned out.

Luke the tech was great. Penny in the office was also great. I'll be having them back in the spring to check the A/C.

BradCustomer review · St. George
★★★★★
I called and got a callback within 5 minutes. They walked me through how to turn off the water and arranged for a plumber to come the next morning at 8 a.m. He arrived promptly, went over my options, and the whole process took about 3 hours. I'd definitely use them again.

Water heater repair - FAQs

The questions Southern Utah homeowners ask most when their water heater fails.

How much does water heater repair cost?
Every repair is different. Cost is driven by what's failing (thermostat, element, tank, valve), the age and type of unit, and whether any code upgrades are required. You'll get a written quote on-site before we start - and we won't begin until you approve the price.
Can you repair it, or do I need to replace it?
Depends on the age and the failure. Tanks over 10 years old with a tank failure usually warrant replacement. Minor component failures (thermostat, element, valve) almost always repair economically. A Walker plumber will give you the honest answer - not the upsell.
Why do I need to upgrade to code?
Code standards are higher now than when older systems were installed - particularly around venting, gas connections, and pressure relief. Upgrading during a repair prevents future issues and ensures your unit operates safely.
Do you service tank and tankless water heaters?
Yes. We service both tank and tankless systems, gas and electric, every major brand. Our trucks carry parts for the most common failures so most repairs happen on the first visit.
My water heater is making strange noises - is that bad?
Rumbling, popping, or banging sounds usually mean sediment buildup inside the tank. In Southern Utah's hard water, this is common after 4-5 years. Left alone it can cause tank failure. If you hear these sounds, it's worth booking a tune-up - a flush often buys you several more years. If the tank is also 8-10+ years old, replacement may be more economical than repair.
How fast can you get here?
We run 20+ service vehicles across Southern Utah with 24/7 live dispatch. Call and our team will give you an honest estimate of arrival time based on current job load.
What warranty do you offer?
Walker stands behind every repair. Specific warranty terms depend on the repair type and any new parts installed - your technician will confirm in writing before work begins.
