"We had a water trickling out of an electric light switch in a wall - on a Saturday afternoon no less. We were referred to Josh at Eco Plumbing Restoration by a contractor we'd worked with. Josh showed up within an hour. He helped us sleuth the problem, and gave us options on a permanent fix. Ultimately his work fixed the problem and helped us avoid it again in the future. Friendly, knowledgeable, and does solid work. We would definitely hire him again."

"Excellent service! We scheduled Plumbing Plus to replace the hot and cold cartridge's in a sink faucet and a tub pop-up drain and overflow gasket. Jared N. quickly assessed the problems. The faucet was so corroded with water deposits that it could not be dismantled to simply replace the hot and cold cartridge's. So Jared replaced the entire faucet with a high quality replacement. After the tub pop-up drain was replaced, Jared checked for leaks by looking in a 'trap door' in the ceiling below the tub that was left after the tub was replaced in an earlier remodel. Jared discovered that the entire tub drain was leaking and need to be replaced, which he did. He also corrected a problem with the drain pipe left from the previous remodel. Although the job was much more complex than expected, Jared was professional, efficient, and extremely cheerful throughout . We highly recommend Jared and Plumbing Plus"

"I couldn’t be happier with TLC Plumbing. Todd reached out to me shortly after I posted the request and he was at my house within the hour, offering advice and an estimate. David installed a new water heater, a “bear” of a project, with professionalism and respect. And he did it cheerfully. By the time he left, the system had been meticulously installed and tested, and the work area was clean! Thank you, David, for your diligence and care. TLC Plumbing gets my recommendation!"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in La Mesa, CA

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.
