Owners, Monica and Wyatt Cox, with experience since 1994 in new construction and custom remodeling services. We collaborate with designer James Winters to make your remodeling project remarkable.

"Cox Construction did an impeccable job on our whole house remodel. They listened to our ideas and executed with attention to detail. Favian and his crew did a great job and were extremely polite despite the fact that we were in their way since we both work from home. We would highly recommend Cox Construction for the results, the amount of attention we received, and every member of the crew. They’re all genuinely nice and trustworthy people."

Water heater repair or services FAQs

Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out, unusual noises from the tank, or complete heating failure. You might also detect a rotten egg smell, indicating a potential gas leak, or notice water that never reaches the proper temperature. If your water heater is over eight years old and displaying these symptoms, the gas valve is a likely culprit. Professional inspection is recommended, especially if gas odors are present.

Water heater gas valves are not universally interchangeable. Each valve must match your specific water heater's make, model, and specifications. Important compatibility factors include gas type (natural gas vs. propane), BTU rating, connection types, and physical dimensions. Using an incorrect valve can result in poor performance, premature failure, or dangerous gas leaks. Always consult your water heater's documentation or a professional plumber to identify the appropriate replacement valve for your unit.
