Emergency Water Heater Repair in Edgewater, CO
Active leaks and total loss of hot water don't wait for business hours — our emergency line doesn't either.
Two situations move to the front of the queue regardless of time of day: an actively leaking tank that risks water damage, and a total, sudden loss of hot water in a home that has no other option (elderly residents, infants, medical needs). Both get a callback and, where possible, same-visit dispatch outside normal hours.
Before help arrives, the single most useful thing you can do for an actively leaking tank is shut off the water supply to the unit (the valve on the cold-water line above the tank) and, for gas units, turn the gas control valve to "off" or "pilot." For electric units, the breaker for the water heater circuit can be switched off. This limits damage and, for gas units, reduces safety risk while you wait.
What counts as a water heater emergency
- Active water leaking from the tank, a fitting, or the T&P relief valve
- Total, sudden loss of hot water with no obvious cause
- A gas smell near the water heater (leave the area and call your gas utility's emergency line first)
- Water pooling that risks reaching flooring, drywall or a finished basement
- Unusual and sudden loud noises, especially combined with a leak
What's included
- 24/7 phone dispatch for active leaks and total loss of hot water
- Guidance over the phone on shutting off water and power/gas before we arrive
- On-site diagnosis and a fixed price before repair or emergency replacement begins
- Emergency replacement capability when the tank itself has failed
What affects the price
