Water Heater Repair & Replacement

When it comes to fixing and replacing water heaters, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® is Murfreesboro's trusted choice! There are a few signs it might be time for water heater repair: if your water isn’t as hot as it should be, if it’s taking longer to heat up, or if you hear unusual noises from the tank, there may be issues with the heating element, thermostat, or even sediment buildup. Sometimes, a simple repair can restore your water heater to peak performance. However, if your unit is over 10-15 years old, replacement may be a better investment. Newer water heater models, including tankless and high-efficiency units, offer improved performance, faster recovery rates, and better energy efficiency. Tankless water heaters, for instance, heat water on demand, eliminating the need for a storage tank and reducing standby energy loss. Our team can help you assess whether a repair or replacement is the right choice based on your water heater’s age, condition, and your household’s needs.

Water Line Repair

Over time, water lines can develop issues due to a range of factors. Common causes include corrosion in older pipes, which can lead to small leaks or even bursts, and shifting soil or ground movement, which can put pressure on underground pipes and cause them to crack or break. Tree roots are another frequent culprit; as they grow, they can invade water lines, leading to blockages or breaks that restrict water flow and cause backups. Additionally, freezing temperatures can cause pipes to expand and crack, especially if they’re not properly insulated. Signs that you might need water line repair include sudden drops in water pressure, discolored water, unexplained wet patches in your yard, or spikes in your water bill. Quick repair is crucial to avoid water damage and potential health risks from contaminated water. Our team uses advanced techniques to locate and repair water line issues with minimal disruption, restoring safe, efficient water flow to your home.

FAQs

What Are Signs Your Water Heater Is Going Bad?

You can expect a traditional water heater to last anywhere from 8 to 10 years. Other styles of water heaters may last longer. While it’s possible to have issues with your appliances in the first few years, you are more likely to experience problems the older your water heater is.

Here are the signs to watch out for when your water heater is going bad:

Lack of hot water supply
Increasing water bills
Leaking water from unit
Shutting off randomly
Constantly running

Why Does My Water Heater Seem To Make Unusual Sounds When It’s Running?

Unusual sounds from your water heater, such as popping, rumbling, or hissing, are typically caused by sediment buildup inside the tank. Over time, minerals from hard water accumulate at the bottom of the tank. As the heater heats the water, the sediment traps small bubbles, causing the popping or rumbling noise. This makes the unit work harder, reducing efficiency and potentially damaging the system. Regular maintenance, such as annual flushing, helps to remove the sediment and keep your water heater running smoothly, preventing costly repairs and extending its lifespan.

How Do I Know if My Water Line Is Broken?

To determine if your water line is broken, look for signs like unusually low water pressure, discolored or muddy water, or pooling water around your yard and property. If you notice water damage on walls or ceilings or hear the sound of running water when nothing is in use, it could mean you’ve got a leak somewhere in your water line. Another common sign is a sudden spike in your water bill, which could mean significant water loss even when you’re not using water to shower or wash dishes. If you’re experiencing any of these issues,you should contact a professional, licensed plumber immediately for an inspection and to avoid further water damage.

Nora Schallenberger

I called One Air Heating for a second opinion on my furnace drama. I have battling it since the first of December with another company. First off the second opinion was free! I did not know that! How Wonderful for this old lady! Cody came out same day....what a great guy and very knowledgeable of my furnace unit. After explaining my troubles, and he listened to all of them, he looked at the thermostat and the the unit. Turned out I need a control board, which of course, is back ordered. So.....he did a temporary fix, and checked to see if they had any boards at all for the unit in case the fix doesn't hold. Found an old board, but have decided to wait if the temporary fails. He came out on the 21st and as of the 24th, its still working. He even gave me his number and said if any problems give him a call. He even texted on friday to check in. Great Service for sure, I'm glad I called their number for the second opinion. Thanks so much Cody!

Ross Judice

Our experience was awesome with Mr JD Workman, Mr Luke , Mr Trey. They did a great job on our home. Workmanship was excellent and they explained what they were doing. The cost was very reasonable we found. More than $2300 lest then the other quote. Found a good plumbing company to do future work we may need!!! They cleaned up after themselves and put all the paneling they removed back. They were very polite. Miss Heather was very polite and helped us out with the pex piping of our house. We rated them 5 stars because they were!!!! Thanks for fantastic job!!!!

Doris Burson

David was very knowledgeable and very helpful. He took extra time to understand my faucet problem and researched options to help me get the part I needed.

Akeya

I had a great experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing! From start to finish, they were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. They kept me updated every step of the way and even provided clear before-and-after pictures, which I really appreciated. They did an excellent job installing handwashing sinks and a sink for my warming kitchen, and everything was completed with care and attention to detail. I want to give a special shout-out to Tyler and Jenna — they were absolutely amazing, patient, and informative. I also met the manager once (I’m so sorry I forgot your name!), but you were great as well. The whole team truly went above and beyond. What stood out the most is that they took the time to look up the plumbing codes for my childcare center, explained everything clearly, and educated me on the correct equipment that should be used and what should stay to remain compliant. That level of care and knowledge gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and knowledgeable plumbing company. You guys are great — thank you again!

Kevin

Cole is an amazing tech. He came over for an after hours call and was quickly able to identify and trouble shoot the issue with my water filter. I will definitely reach out to him again for any plumbing issues in the future.

Joni Light

Vinnie and Myles came promptly to fix our hot water system - not knowing what the real issue even was! As soon as they looked they had the system working within a few minutes. Additionally we looked at the overall system, which had not been maintained properly, and we got a much needed education. We'll be getting them back soon for future maintenance and new system. More to come. We highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Customer service was prompt, courteous, educated, and pleasant.

Kirk Haney

We call ben franklin and got an immediate response. The plumbers were there in thirty minutes, figured out the problem, fixed the problem, and charged less than the estimate that I originally chose. Thanks to Seth for his expertise and his honesty.

Kristin West

Nery and Brandon installed our water heater and we're very kind to us, and we are happy with the results. They were on time and very nice to us.

B. Pitts

Great experience with Benjamin Franklin. Alex and Robert were friendly, professional and efficient in their work. They took time to do little thinks like cover their shoes, or take them off before entering. Even though I have hardwood floors, it was nice to see.

Robin “W” Braesicke

It was good until someone at the shop ordered the wrong water heater...little delay....they had problems wiring the hot water heater.... The work they did was top notch from what I can see. I was glad that they made sure that it was wired correctly, they took their time and did the job right the first time...will post any follow-up if necessary... The guys were polite, worked hard, got the job done...thanks guys I didn't want to stay in a motel a second night...Happy New Year...lol

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my Murfreesboro water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Murfreesboro, it’s a good idea to flush the tank once a year to clear out sediment, especially if your area has hard water. Check the pressure relief valve, inspect for rust or leaks, and make sure the thermostat is set to a safe temperature (usually around 120°F). Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your unit and keeps your hot water flowing efficiently. For peace of mind, consider scheduling a professional inspection with a local plumber.

How do I know if I need a Murfreesboro plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Murfreesboro home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply. Try cleaning faucet aerators first, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed plumber in Murfreesboro to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.
