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.
