Tired of running out of hot water? Is your water heater constantly running into problems? A water heater replacement is the solution, and our team is ready to walk you through the process. Most water heaters last around 6-12 years, but it's not uncommon to upgrade to a newer model if you have an undersized tank for your hot water needs. If you think it might be time to replace your current water heater, let us know! Our experienced plumbers can take a look and give you our honest opinion. If a new water heater makes sense, we'll walk you through options that make the most sense for you and your home.
Did you know that a professionally installed and professionally sized tankless water heater installation means virtually never running out of hot water again? It's true! Instead of using a tank and continually heating and re-heating water, a tankless water heater heats the water as it passes through the unit only as needed. That means much less wasted water, not running out of hot water, and much higher energy efficiency. Plus, tankless water heaters are much smaller in size! If you're interested in upgrading to a tankless water heater, simply reach out to our expert plumbers today.

Our team has decades of experience serving homeowners and can handle your plumbing needs no matter where you live in Nashville.

Water heaters are built to withstand daily usage. Unfortunately, due to the stress of repeated use, nearly all appliances will require repairs at some point. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prolong the life of your water heater. One common issue we see is sediment build up. Over time the minerals in your water supply can settle at the bottom of your tank and reduce its efficiency. While this issue can be fixed by flushing the sediment out of the tank, other common problems require repairs or replacements. Damage to values or the tank itself is not uncommon. You may also be experiencing loose connections, which are impacting your water heater’s function. Whatever issue you’re experiencing, our licensed plumbers have seen it all—and are happy to help get your hot water working again.
The lifespan of your water heater will depend on the type you have and how well it’s been maintained. Gas and electric water heaters usually last 8-10 years. While tankless style water heaters can last 20 years or more. Whatever type of water heater you have, you should have it inspected annually to extend its lifespan as long as possible. However, all appliances eventually need to be replaced. Increasing water bills without any additional usage can be a telltale signal something is wrong. You may notice you don’t have the same available amount of hot water. Inconsistent or low water pressure can also be signs that your water heater is struggling to keep up. If you hear strange noises or see visible leaks around your unit, be sure to call a professional right away.
As a water heater ages, its efficiency may be impacted. While most traditional water heaters can last a decade or more, frequent repairs can add up. Ultimately, if the cost of repairing your water heater is more than 50% of the cost to replace it, we generally recommend replacement over repairing. Replacing your water heater can mean improved energy efficiency, higher hot water capacity, reduction in repair bills, and more reliability. Our team of licensed plumbers operates with a strict code of ethics. We strive to do what’s best for the customer. You can count on us to discuss your repair or replacement options honestly.

Jhonatan and Joel were awesome! Thanks Ben Frank

Andrew was prompt and very knowledgeable! He described what he was doing each step of the process and cleaned up the mess afterward!
Jason Wilford
Our water heater went up on July 3rd, and Patrick was out there that afternoon to assess and give us a game plan. He came out again the Saturday the 5th to install a new electric heater to replace the old propane one. Very helpful, courteous, answered some other questions we had, as we just moved in 6 weeks ago. Prompt, knowledgeable And didn't try to sell you anything you didn't need. I'd recommend Patrick and this company to my friends and family if they come across a similar situation.
Jeff Luppens
Excellent in every respect!

My consultation with your plumber, Kevin, was very pleasant and he was very knowledgeable and explained everything about my pressure tank issues. I have been searching for a plumber who understands pressure tanks on a well system and fortunately, I'm relieved to be putting my confidence in your services. I'm also going to join the service plan for my future plumbing, electric and HVAC. I'm beyond pleased by the convenience of having all of these services provided by one provider and in addition, receiving a discount on all the work as well! Thank you so much! Looking forward to working with you !

He acquired the parts and installed all parts to complete his task. Here photos before and afterwards.GREAT JOB MR . MICHAEL. Thank you for your support and service to your profession.

Cristi was phenomenal. He came to replace my front hose spigot, which was more difficult than it sounds (older house). He had to measure outside and inside and determine where they had dry-walled over the plumbing access! His measurement was spot on and he worked within a 12x12 square about two feet in. Thank goodness he is thin and limber! He installed a shut off valve for me to help avoid freezing in the winter (which I now have access to!). Cristi was professional, extremely knowledgeable, respectful of my house, and discussed options as well as potential outcomes for each option without trying to hard sell me into the most expensive one. I have had five plumbing contractors to my house within two months for different things (when it rains), some kept creating more things that needed to be fixed, others were too expensive for the level of technician’s knowledge, and one was great but only a specialty company for sewer lines. Believe me when I say, I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing! If all their techs are as good as Cristi, you can’t go wrong!!!
