Our team quickly diagnoses the cause and provides affordable, same-day repairs so you can get back to enjoying reliable hot water.

A leaking water heater is one of the most common — and most serious — issues homeowners face. Leaks can come from loose valves, corrosion, or pressure buildup inside the tank. Ignoring a small drip can lead to costly water damage or complete tank failure. Our licensed plumbers in Scarborough can repair minor leaks or recommend safe replacement options before things get worse.
If you notice pooling water or rust near your tank, call us right away or book an emergency plumbing visit for same-day service.
If your pilot light keeps going out or won’t ignite, it could be due to dirty sensors, a faulty thermocouple, or gas supply issues. These problems not only stop your water heater from heating but can also pose safety risks. Our technicians are trained to safely inspect, clean, and repair ignition systems for both gas and electric water heaters — restoring reliable operation without the guesswork.
For electric models, check out our electric water heater services for expert care and maintenance.
Hearing rumbling, popping, or banging sounds from your water heater? That’s usually caused by sediment buildup inside the tank. Over time, minerals in Scarborough’s water can collect and harden, forcing your heater to work harder and reducing efficiency. Our plumbers can flush your water heater to remove sediment, improve performance, and extend its lifespan.
We also recommend regular maintenance — such as annual flushing and inspection — to prevent future issues. Explore our drain cleaning services to keep your plumbing in top shape year-round.

When your water heater starts acting up, you might wonder whether it’s better to repair or replace your water heater. At John The Plumber, we’ll always give you honest advice based on what makes the most sense for your home and budget.
In many cases, a simple repair — such as replacing a thermostat, heating element, or valve — can extend your system’s life and restore hot water quickly. However, if your unit is more than 8–10 years old, leaking, or struggling to maintain temperature, a water heater replacement might be the smarter and more economical choice.
Newer models offer better energy efficiency, improved safety features, and lower utility bills. Over time, the savings on energy and maintenance often outweigh the cost of keeping an older unit running.
Our licensed plumbers can inspect your system, explain your options, and handle everything from quick repairs to full replacements. If it’s time for a new unit, check out our water heater installation and replacement services for expert guidance and professional installation.
Still unsure what’s best for your home? Call 416-214-3122 or book a consultation online — we’ll help you make the right choice for your comfort and budget.
