When it comes to plumbing, Mr. Rooter is the one to call. Our trained and knowledgeable staff makes your satisfaction our main priority.

"The $7,000 project ended up costing us $123,000 because they dry-cut through the slab in our family room releasing asbestos dust throughout the entire house causing us to have to live in a Hampton Inn for 43 days. They cut the slab without supporting it and it collapsed enough to cause our brick fireplace face to have several cracks in it. With all the repairs we had to have done, the asbestos abatement project and replacing all our clothing, betting and some furniture, and with the amount our insurance company shorted us, we lost $43,000 of our retirement savings. Avoid this contractor like the plague!"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Oak Ridge, TN

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.
