Frequently Asked Questions

The most obvious thing that can affect a water heater is sediment buildup, especially as the water heater in your house gets older. 

When the water is being heated, minerals like magnesium and calcium stick to the sides of the burner and tank. If these magnesium and calcium mineral particles aren’t properly filtered out of the water heater, they develop a sediment barrier that will probably fall and settle on the burner & severely affect your water heater’s performance. 

What is the best approach to keep your water heater in good order? Call Proficient Plumbing for a regular water heater inspection, water filtration service and water heater repairs!

With time, water heaters can experience different kinds of leakages. Though you might not think a small leak is worrying, according to reports, 13.7% of all water waste results from leaks.

If you think the water heater installed in your home is losing water, take a more detailed look. Sometimes, the inner tank might have a crack, or one of the pipe fittings might have become loose. Try to understand where the leak originated from to better describe the issue to our water heater repair service experts over the phone. 

While leaks with certain sources can often be repaired or patched by our experts, a widespread leaking issue could mean that your whole water heater system requires replacement.

You may have seen videos about how to install a hot water heater by yourself. Still, our expert team suggests that you should not think of doing it yourself, particularly those fueled by natural gas. Hooking up gas lines should always be performed by a professional. 

Plumbers must have specific certifications to perform gas plumbing services. Homeowners generally do not have the knowledge and experience to take care of these tasks themselves. Gas leaks can make your family sick from carbon monoxide poisoning and even induce house fires.

Plus, poorly installed electric hot water heaters can leak steam that creates mold growth and damage the surrounding materials. Save yourself from the frustration and extra cost of additional repairs (or even replacement) down the line. Simply hire an expert in the beginning.

Call the experts at Proficient Plumbing Solutions for the best water heater repair, replacement and installation services.

That depends on the condition of the problem. If the temperature and pressure (T&P) valve fails to turn your water heater off when the temperature or pressure is extremely high, your water heater could explode. 

However, most water heater leakages happen because of issues such as sediment accumulation that ultimately causes corrosion. In this case, explosion of your water heater tank is not the top concern. However, you should call a plumber if you notice any sort of leaking around your water heater.

Wondering who to ask for water heater repair service? Do not put your family at risk. Contact Proficient Plumbing immediately if your water heater is not heating properly or the water heater tank is damaged!

Good hot water heaters typically work for at least 8 to 12 years, but after they have been working for this long, they begin to lose their effectiveness and become prone to failure. 

While most water heater owners wait until their hot water heater has fully failed before searching for a new water heater, there are advantages to upgrading your water heater before it fails!

Water heaters fall in the category of top energy utilization products in your home, and in many cases, they can account for more than 25% of your entire home’s energy use. As water heaters get older and less effective, this percentage climbs even higher. This means the hot water heater unit gets more and more costly to operate.

Do not wait until your hot water heater fails or becomes ineffective before you think of a replacement. Many possibilities exist today that will keep your home’s hot water running comfortably and also save you money.

Bertin did a wonderful job. He took care of a very challenging situation saving us from what would have soon been a much costlier headache.

Brian C. Womack

Ryan Turner
Great call to business with a prompt scheduling of tech on a Friday afternoon. Tech was on time courteous professional and transparent about pricing. I only paid what was quoted and not an additional arbitrary figure. This is a local family business that I would use and recommend again. This review was earned by this company.
William Dupree
We had Proficient Plumbing do a large job, they connected our detached garage to the water main at our house. It was about 300' away, they had to use a trenching machine and navigate the driveway and a stone wall. They treated the job like they were working on their own house, they paid particular attention to ensuring that they didn't uproot any trees or damage our stone wall. After the trenching was finished and they covered the trench you wouldn't even know they had been there. They used quality materials and went one-step above and beyond by installing a tracer wire - I was impressed. They called me before they came out and immediately following the job to ensure that I was happy. The staff were incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable - they will be my go to for any plumbing needs in the future.
Todd Simmons
We used Proficient Plumbing on a major job replacing all the water lines in our home. We talked to people who used them in the past for similar jobs, and they were highly recommended. I felt the estimate they gave us was reasonable. Owner Bertin Jaimes said it would take 2 weeks from beginning to end, and they completed the job on time. We could not have been happier with the results. They were very professional and were very conscious of doing a clean job, minimizing damage to our home. The crew – Bertin, Frankie, Chris, and Garrett – could not have been more accommodating. They made sure we understood the work being planned each day and when necessary to have the water turned off, they gave us plenty of notice so we could plan accordingly. We are very satisfied customers and would highly recommend them.
Tommy and Carolyn Joyner
We had the pleasure of having Bertin and his colleague help us with an issue in our furnace, and we could not be happier with the service we received. They went above and beyond to immediately solve our problem, especially since our gas was shut off. We recommend choosing them to help support small biz, and if you want professional, speedy, and good quality service. 🙂
Ramon Chavez
I had my thermocouple go out on my water heater. Based on my initial debug, I knew this was the issue. I got a quote from them over the phone. They came and verified the issue and did not make up any other problem. They fix it and charge me what we agreed on over the phone.
K H
We had an emergency water issue on a Sunday, when we drilled through our main water line by accident while hanging things in our garage. We called Bertin at Proficient Plumbing and he came out within 15 minutes of our call, on a SUNDAY. He was extremely friendly and knowledgeable on the issue, and knew just how to fix it. He had our water line fixed and water back on within 45 minutes of arriving. Outstanding customer service and his work was flawless. 10/10 would recommend and use again!
