Water Heater Leaking From the Bottom of the Tank: Repair or Replace?

If the water is coming from the tank itself, it needs replacing: a tank that leaks at the bottom has usually corroded through, and that cannot be repaired. A leak from a fitting near the bottom, such as the drain valve or the relief valve line, is a different and usually smaller repair, so the first step is finding exactly where the water comes from.

Right away:

• Turn off the cold-water supply valve at the top of the heater

• Turn the gas control to off, or switch off the breaker for an electric heater

A tank that is leaking from the tank wall is replaced, every time; there is no patch that holds. Our Palmdale crew can usually replace a water heater in Lancaster the same day. If the replacement needs a permit, we can pull it for you, which adds our administrative fee to what the city charges, or you can pull it yourself as the owner-builder.

Water heaters usually last 8–12 years. If yours is older or needs constant repairs, a replacement may save you money in the long run.

You might need a new water heater if:

• The tank is leaking or corroded

• You regularly run out of hot water

• It no longer meets your household demand

• You want the energy savings of a tankless upgrade

We’ll compare options, costs, and rebates so you can choose confidently.
