Recognizing the signs that your water heater requires repair can save you from the inconvenience of a complete breakdown and more costly issues down the line. Some of the most common indicators include fluctuating water temperature, where the water alternates between hot and cold unpredictably, often signaling a problem with the heating elements or thermostat. Unusual noises like popping, rumbling, or banging from your water heater can indicate sediment buildup inside the tank, reducing efficiency and potentially causing damage. Other warning signs include rusty or discolored water, which may mean there’s corrosion inside the tank or the pipes, and visible leaks around the base of the unit, which often point to a failing pressure relief valve or compromised tank integrity. At ALL-WAYS PLUMBING in Bend, OR, our technicians are skilled at identifying these signs early and providing timely repairs, helping you avoid further damage and restoring your water heater’s reliability.

Jake and Elisa were wonderful to work with in their installation of a new hot water heater (to replace our 20-yr old one) for us. Their standards of communication prior to the installation: about our needs concerning the new unit, scheduling, updates, delivery of the heater and arrangement for proper conditions for the installation were excellent. They were on time, worked efficiently and gave us a very thorough introduction to the improved features of the new hot water heater concerning typical use like relighting the pilot light, the vacation setting, error codes provided a function light and what to check for about anything that usually might need to be adjusted by them after installation, and were fun to talk to.

He called right back and came out the same day. So if you have any plumbing issues, don't hesitate to call Jake at All-Ways Plumbing. Steve &Luanne

I recently had the pleasure to use ALL-WAYS PLUMBING & CENTRAL OR WATERHEATERS, and they were amazing! I managed to drop my wedding ring down the shower drain, and was honestly having a bit of a panic. From my first call, Jake was super helpful and understanding. He gave me a fair quote and was confident about getting the ring back - which definitely helped in reassuring me that my wife wouldn’t divorce me. He was great about keeping me updated, arrived right on time the next day, and got my ring out with no problems at all. I'm impressed with how professional and efficient the whole experience was. If you ever need plumbing work done, I definitely recommend these guys. Thanks so much, Jake, you're a lifesaver!

When my hot water heater went out I started searching for plumbers. I got a few bids and then ran across Jake and Elisa with Always Plumbing. I went with them because their prices are reasonable, they are straightforward and very knowledgeable. Because I hadn't had hot water for a while, they did some creative scheduling to get me in as soon as possible. In less than a day I had a new hot water heater installed. Everything was completed efficiently, neatly and very professionally done. It was a snowy/wet day and they took pains to make sure to leave everything nice, dry and clean. I believe you can trust them to determine what you need and get the job done right.

The faucet was in worse shape than I had realized, so Jake came out a few days later and replaced it for me after I picked the new faucet. Everything is working perfectly and looks fantastic! I also looked up what prices to expect for these kinds of repairs, and their prices are absolutely fair and on point with the current market. I am so happy and highly recommend All-Ways!

Several years ago, we had a plumbing issue and Jake came out to fix it. Several days ago, we had a different plumbing issue. Jake arrives on or ahead of time, is efficient, and guarantees his work. Very pleasant to work with and as well as competent. The job was more complicated than I'd expected and included work behind the kitchen sink. There were two items repaired. Granted, it's easy to lump contractors into the same group, but I can't tell you how many times we've been told by a contractor that they were going to come at a specific time and they didn't - or when they did come, they didn't end up fixing the issue. All-Ways Plumbing is a refreshing change. Now if only he knew how to build outbuildings ... (:

faucet cartridge replacement q&A

Wondering if it’s time to repair your water heater? Bend’s trusted experts at ALL-WAYS PLUMBING are here with the guidance and solutions you need for reliable hot water.

Common issues that may require a water heater repair include inconsistent water temperatures, limited hot water supply, strange noises, or leaks around the unit. Mineral buildup from hard water in some areas of Bend can cause sediment to accumulate in the tank, affecting heating efficiency and often resulting in rumbling or popping sounds. A malfunctioning thermostat, heating element, or pilot light can lead to temperature problems, leaving you without reliable hot water. Additionally, leaks may indicate worn-out components or pressure issues that need prompt attention to prevent water damage. ALL-WAYS PLUMBING in Bend, OR, is experienced in diagnosing and repairing these issues, restoring your water heater’s functionality and efficiency. Our team can quickly assess whether a simple repair will address the problem or if more extensive service is needed. By opting for timely repairs, Bend residents can extend the life of their water heater and enjoy consistent hot water without the need for replacement.

In many cases, water heater repairs are more cost-effective than a full replacement, especially if the unit is relatively new or only experiencing minor issues. Repairs can often address common problems like heating element malfunctions, thermostat adjustments, or sediment buildup from Bend’s hard water, which can hinder performance but don’t require a complete replacement. ALL-WAYS PLUMBING in Bend, OR, helps homeowners evaluate whether a repair will restore the unit’s efficiency or if replacement is more financially practical due to age or frequent repairs. Typically, water heaters last around 8 to 12 years, and if the unit is nearing the end of its lifespan, replacement may offer better long-term savings and efficiency. Our team provides transparent guidance based on each homeowner’s situation, ensuring you make an informed decision that aligns with your budget and water heating needs. ALL-WAYS PLUMBING is here to help Bend residents maximize their investment in reliable hot water.

Several components within a water heater may need replacement over time to ensure efficient performance and consistent hot water. For electric water heaters, elements such as the heating elements and thermostats are often replaced, as these are critical for maintaining the correct water temperature. In cases where the heating elements wear out, an electric water heater rebuild may be required to restore full functionality. For gas water heaters, common replacements include the pilot assembly, gas valve, thermocouple on older units, or thermopile assembly, which are essential for safely igniting and maintaining the gas flame that heats the water. Additionally, relighting the pilot or replacing the thermocouple may be necessary if the pilot light fails to stay lit. Both gas and electric water heaters have dip tubes and anodes that may need replacing as well.  ALL-WAYS PLUMBING in Bend, OR, specializes in diagnosing and replacing these elements, providing Bend homeowners with expert repairs that keep their water heaters running efficiently and reliably for years.

A typical water heater repair by ALL-WAYS PLUMBING in Bend, OR, usually takes between one to two hours, depending on the complexity of the issue. Simple repairs, such as replacing a heating element or thermostat, are often completed quickly, allowing you to regain hot water access with minimal downtime. For issues involving sediment buildup or leaks, our skilled technicians may need additional time to inspect and thoroughly clean the unit to ensure long-lasting performance. Our goal at ALL-WAYS PLUMBING is to perform efficient, high-quality repairs that restore your water heater’s functionality without causing extended disruption to your day. With years of experience serving Bend residents, our team is well-equipped to diagnose and resolve water heater problems promptly. By choosing ALL-WAYS PLUMBING, Bend homeowners benefit from fast, reliable repairs that keep their water heating systems running smoothly and efficiently.
