Signs It's Time to Replace
Repair isn't always worth it. These signs say it's time for a new unit.
01
The tank is over 10 years old
Most tanks last 8 to 12 years; past that, the risk of failure climbs.
02
Rusty water or a rusty tank
Corrosion inside the tank can't be repaired, only replaced.
03
Repeated repairs
When repairs stack up, a new unit is the smarter spend.
04
Not enough hot water
An undersized or worn tank that can no longer keep up is due for an upgrade.

Austin Homeowners Trust Ironclad
Had three other plumbers tell me I needed to dig up my yard for a sewer line issue. Ironclad did a camera inspection and fixed it with trenchless repair. Saved me thousands.
Called them for a leak under our kitchen sink. They showed up same day, found the problem fast, and fixed it in under an hour. Price was exactly what they quoted.
Our water heater died on a Sunday night. They answered the phone and had someone out Monday first thing. These guys are the real deal.

Schedule Drain Cleaning Near YouDrain Cleaning FAQ
How much does drain cleaning cost in Austin?
Most drain cleaning runs between $175 and $350, depending on the drain, the access point, and how stubborn the clog is. You get the exact price before any work starts, and you approve it first.
Do you offer same-day drain cleaning?
In most cases, yes. Same-day availability depends on demand, but we prioritize getting to you fast. For an active backup, call and we will find the soonest window.
Is this a drain clog or a main line problem?
One slow drain is usually a local clog. Multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, or water backing into tubs and showers point to a main line issue. Your plumber will confirm which.
What if my drain keeps clogging?
Recurring clogs usually mean something deeper. We check for buildup, roots, pipe damage, or a sewer line issue, and recommend a camera inspection when it is warranted.
Do you clean main sewer lines?
Yes. We handle main line clogs and can run a camera inspection when a deeper issue may be the cause, so you know what is going on before you spend on repairs.
What can I try before calling?
For one minor clog, try a plunger or clear visible debris near the opening. Skip the harsh chemical drain cleaners, they can damage pipes. If it keeps returning, hits multiple drains, or causes a backup, call a plumber.
