JAMISON PLUMBING INC is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Yes, I hired this pro. I've been a general contractor for over 10 years, and this has been one of the most pleasant partnerships I’ve had with a plumbing subcontractor. They are highly responsive, technically proficient, and capable of handling everything from small plumbing issues to complex gas line setups. We’ve worked together on both a commercial renovation and a residential ADU project, with a combined project value of over $100,000. While their pricing is slightly above the market average, I believe their professionalism, reliability, and willingness to coordinate closely with my team absolutely justify it. There wasn't an exact category to describe the scope of our work here, but I would recommend them wholeheartedly for anyone seeking a trustworthy and capable plumber, especially in demanding or large-scale projects."

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

Yes, flushing washes out the sediment that would otherwise coat heating elements and build up along the tank walls. Clearing that gunk keeps water heating evenly, lowers energy use, and helps the unit last longer. In short, a quick flush keeps your heater running at peak efficiency instead of fighting through layers of mineral sludge.

Plan on a full flush once a year. If you live with hard water—or hear rumbling inside the tank—step it up to twice yearly. Sticking to that schedule scrubs out sediment, keeps hot water flowing, and shields the heater from premature wear. Regular flushing also wards off surprise repair bills and helps the unit run more efficiently day-to-day.

Listen and look for clues: popping or banging sounds, cloudy or rusty water, lukewarm showers, moisture around the drain valve, or a sudden spike in energy bills. Any of these signals point to sediment hogging space inside the tank and choking heat transfer. A thorough flush clears the buildup, restores steady temperatures, and helps the heater run smoothly for years to come.
