Can a leaking water heater be repaired?
It depends on where the leak is. A leaking tank usually points toward replacement, while valve, supply, or connection leaks may be repairable.
How do I decide between repair and replacement?
Age, leak location, repair cost, household hot water demand, code items, and warranty status all matter.
Do you install tankless water heaters?
Yes. See tankless water heater service for sizing, venting, and upgrade guidance.
Should I call if the water heater is actively leaking?
Yes. Shut off water or gas only if safe, protect the area if possible, and call for help before the leak spreads.
