Gene's Plumbing handles water heater repair across West Richland and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
The honest call on a West Richland water heater is age-based. Under eight years with a bad part is worth fixing. Past twelve, or weeping at the tank seam, and you are buying time at a bad price.
Every house handles water heater repair a little differently depending on its age, and West Richland has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the West Richland truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The water heater repair job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
How the job actually runs, start to finish.
Tell us what you are seeing, hearing or smelling. If water is actively running into the house, you get walked to your main shutoff before anything else is discussed.
Finding the real cause is what keeps the repair small. Opening one square foot of wall instead of twenty starts with knowing exactly where to open it.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
The repair gets made with proper materials, pressure tested where the job allows, and checked in front of you before anything is closed back up.
Common questions, answered plainly.

Real reviews from real service calls.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Whole house was on galvanized from the fifties. They repiped in PEX one bathroom at a time so we were never without water overnight. Drywall patches were cut clean and easy to fix."
"Main water line between the meter and the house had been leaking into the yard for months. They trenched it, replaced it, and put the sod back better than it was before."
