Expert Water Heater Repair Services in Bakersfield, CA
A malfunctioning water heater ruins your morning, and if left unaddressed, it can lead to higher utility bills and potential property damage. When your system starts acting up, you need a plumber who understands the technical side of heating elements, thermostats, and gas valves. At Can Do Crew, our water heater repair services identify the root cause of the failure and provide a reliable, lasting solution.
We pride ourselves on being honest about what needs to be fixed. If a simple part replacement can save your unit, we’ll get it done. If the system is beyond repair, we can talk to you about transitioning to a water heater installation or water heater replacement that makes sense for your budget.
What's Wrong With Your Water Heater?
Different symptoms require different specialized repairs. Our technicians are trained to handle anything from simple to complex water heater issues, such as:
- Fluctuating Water Temperatures: If you’re getting “sandwiched” (hot water, then cold, then hot again), it’s often a sign of a broken dip tube or a failing heating element.
- Strange Smells or Cloudy Water: Sulfur-like odors or cloudy water often indicate bacterial growth or heavy mineral sediment, which may require a professional flush.
- Popping or Banging Sounds: This is usually “kettling,” where steam bubbles struggle to escape through a layer of hard water scale at the bottom of your tank.
- Pilot Light or Ignition Issues: For gas units, a pilot light that won’t stay lit could mean a faulty thermocouple or a clogged burner.
Bakersfield's Choice for Reliable Water Heater Services
Repairing a system is often the first step in improving your home’s overall plumbing health. Since our local water is notoriously hard, mineral buildup is the primary reason for water heater repair calls in Kern County. We often recommend a water softener installation as a preventative measure to protect your repaired unit from future damage. If you’re looking for the ultimate in purity, we can also discuss the benefits of a reverse osmosis system.
Can Do Crew is a full-service team. While we restore your hot water, let us know if you need help with other common household repairs, such as:
- Fixture Maintenance: Professional faucet repair, toilet repair, and garbage disposal repair
- System Integrity: Expert pipe leak repair, professional drain cleaning, and whole-home repiping for older systems
- Compliance & Crisis: We provide certified backflow testing and 24/7 emergency plumbing
