Yes. Pipe Masters offers water heater maintenance including tank flushing, anode rod inspection, thermostat calibration, and safety valve testing. Annual maintenance extends water heater life and maintains efficiency for Plano homeowners.
Tank water heaters in Plano typically last 8 to 12 years. Tankless units can last 15 to 20 years with regular maintenance. Factors like water hardness, usage, and maintenance schedule affect lifespan. Pipe Masters can evaluate your unit and estimate remaining life.

Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Pipe Masters for their plumbing needs.
"Sewer line was backing up into the basement floor drain every time it rained. They scoped the line with a camera and found a collapsed section about thirty feet out. Replaced it with trenchless pipe bursting."
"Our water heater started leaking from the bottom on a Friday evening. They had a new 50-gallon unit installed by Saturday afternoon. No cold showers for the family, thankfully."
"I have used Pipe Masters three times now. Garbage disposal replacement, a leaking toilet valve, and most recently a faucet install in the guest bath. Consistent quality every single time."
