Water Heater Repair, Install & Replacement in Cary, NC

Our area has a hearty mix of older and newer homes, each with a variety of water heater repair, installation, and replacement needs. Whether you own an older home downtown or a newer home in West Cary, Call Red Truck Plumbing is here to help.

With over 26 years of expertise, we understand the unique needs that properties in Cary face. From sediment build-up in water heaters to seasonal changes, we know exactly what to look for when your water heater stops working. We offer a variety of water heater services, including repairs of traditional and tankless water heaters, new installations, and water heater replacements.

Water Heater Problems

Many water heater problems in the area are caused by sediment. Municipal water in Wake County, NC, can cause mineral buildup and sediment accumulation. This can shorten your water heater’s lifespan or reduce its efficiency. Regular flushings can help keep your water heater functioning optimally and help prolong its lifespan.

Homes and businesses in the area might also face water heater issues from seasonal weather changes. Very cold winters may cause your system to need to work harder to deliver hot water to your home. Many older homes in neighborhoods like Scott’s Mill and MacGregor Downs may have aging water heaters, outdated plumbing, or corroded parts. Call Red Truck Plumbing to help you replace your aging water heater with a newer tankless water heater for faster, more reliable hot water and lower energy bills.

Water Heater Repair & Installation Services

Ever gone to take a shower only to find there’s no hot water? We understand the frustration of not having hot water at home or in your business. Some signs it might be time to contact Call Red Truck Plumbing for water heater repair services include:

  • No hot water at all
  • Inconsistent water temperatures/fluctuating temperatures
  • Banging or popping noises
  • Pressure relief valve issues
  • Rust-colored or discolored water
  • Leaks or pooling around your hot water tank
  • Suddenly high energy bills

Our experienced team of plumbers responds quickly to your call to inspect your system and identify the potential cause of your water heater issue. Most homes in Cary have a water heater with an average lifespan of 8 to 12 years.

If our team determines your water heater can’t be repaired, we may suggest a replacement as a smarter financial investment. If your water heater is over 10 years old, the tank itself is leaking or your household frequently runs out of hot water, it may be worthwhile to switch to a tankless water heater. We offer repair services for both traditional water heaters and newer tankless systems. Our qualified and knowledgeable team will be happy to discuss your needs to help you make the best choice for your home or business.

Frequently Asked Questions

You Have Questions, We Have Answers

At Call Red Truck Plumbing, we know you have questions about plumbing repair and service. That is why we gathered the top questions asked by local home and business owners.

Does Cary, NC have hard water, and does it affect my water heater?
Despite Cary municipal water being extremely soft, you will still have to pay for maintenance on your hot water heater. As the system operates, sediment and minerals accumulate at the bottom of your tank, insulating a portion of the burner. This leads to noise and higher utility bills. We suggest flushing the water heater once a year to eliminate sediment and safeguard heating elements.
If your water heater is older than 8 – 12 years old or often runs out of hot water, consider a tankless upgrade. Unlimited hot water available on demand with tankless systems that also save 30% or more of your energy costs. Their compact efficiency makes them a huge hit around West Cary.
Usually yes. Unless your water heater is an exact replacement (same size, location, heating capacity, etc), your water heater replacement requires a plumbing permit under the North Carolina Residential Building Code to ensure safety features are properly installed. That is why Call Red Truck Plumbing handles the Town of Cary permitting and inspection process to ensure everything behind your walls is in tip-top shape. Permits will be needed for any of the following:
  • You’re doing it yourself (the exemption only applies to licensed contractors)
  • You’re switching fuel types, upsizing, relocating the unit, or changing venting/piping
  • The install involves going tankless (almost always changes venting/gas lines)
In the case of a water heater, escaping pooling usually suggests that you are dealing with either an easy fix, like leaking from a T&P valve or loose connection, or an irreparable fault such as through-cracking in its tank. A broken tank puts you at risk of some serious water damage and should be replaced immediately.
