Which service do I need?
Start with what the water heater is doing. The call back sorts out the rest.
- No hot water, a pilot that won't stay lit, popping or rumbling: water heater repair. Many of these are a single part.
- Leaking from the bottom, rusty water, or simply past its years: water heater replacement. Tanks typically last 8 to 15 years.
- A new home, a remodel or moving the water heater: water heater installation.
- Endless hot water and no tank to rust: tankless water heater installation, since tankless water heaters last 15 to 20 years with yearly descaling.
- Water spreading across the floor right now: emergency water heater repair, with the shutoff steps and a phone answered 24 hours a day.
- A pilot that keeps going out, a dead element or a tripped breaker: gas & electric water heater repair, covering each fuel's own parts. Not sure which fuel you have? The gas vs electric and sizing guide shows how to tell.

What should a replacement quote include?
In New Braunfels, a complete price for a new water heater covers more than the tank:
- A City permit, required for every replacement under the City's permit rules (opens in a new tab).
- Haul-away of the old tank, plus new fittings.
- An expansion tank where the cold supply runs through a check valve or pressure-reducing valve, under 2021 International Plumbing Code section 607.3 (opens in a new tab).
- A drain pan in an attic, closet or anywhere a leak would do damage.
- Correct venting on a gas water heater.
Why do water heaters here need more care?
Hard water. New Braunfels Utilities (NBU)'s 2019 water quality report (opens in a new tab) (2018 data) put hardness at 8.1 to 19.5 grains per gallon, and scale shortens a tank's working life. The hard water guide covers flushing and softeners.
Coverage is all of New Braunfels (78130, 78132) plus Canyon Lake (78133), Bulverde (78163) and Spring Branch (78070). Every neighborhood is listed on the service areas page.
