Whether it's a sudden leak or a planned upgrade to tankless, we've got you covered with an accurate diagnosis, clean, code-minded installs, and friendly, on-time service.
Showering in lukewarm water, or waiting an hour for the tank to recover, is no way to live. Our team pairs homeowners with seasoned technicians who respond quickly, diagnose accurately, and know what it takes to keep the hot water coming.
A new water heater is a ten-year decision. We help you choose the right type and size, then install it cleanly with every connection tested.
Installing a water heater is part plumbing, part gas or electrical work, and part code compliance. Our technicians handle all three, so the heater runs safely and efficiently from day one. Pricing is upfront, based on the unit and the work your space actually needs.
A leaking tank can't be patched. Once the steel inside has corroded through, the only fix is a new heater, and we can often install a standard tank the same day or the next. You'll get a clear quote first, plus a code check of the venting, the gas or electrical supply, and the relief valve piping.
Most water heater repairs in Alexandria typically land between $150 and $600. The part that failed drives the price: an element or thermocouple is a quick, inexpensive fix, while a gas control valve is a bigger job. You'll get an upfront quote from Alexandria Water Heater before we touch a single part.

Fast repair helpWater on the floor can come from a loose fitting, a weeping drain valve, or a relief valve doing its job. Each one means something different, and we sort out which you have.

Maintenance & flushingRust at the fittings, a spent anode rod, and water pooling under the tank are signs the smart money is on replacement.

Speed matters when water is on the floor or the house has gone without hot water. This is the sequence our team runs through, from the moment your call comes in to the moment the hot water is back.
You call (703) 202-3125. A real person answers, assesses your situation, and sets up fast service for your home. If you smell gas, leave the house and call your gas utility first, then call us.
Often within hours, our fully equipped technician is on-site with the parts and tools required to diagnose and begin the repair in your property.
The fault is pinpointed: thermocouple, element, gas valve, relief valve, or the tank itself. Then, we fix it there and then whenever parts allow, or quote the replacement with real numbers if the tank is done.
Reliable hot water is the whole point. We verify the repair, note the heater's age and condition, and offer a simple yearly plan that keeps sediment out, efficiency up, and cold showers off your calendar.
"Our old tank started leaking all over the garage floor and I panicked. They walked me through shutting off the cold supply and the gas over the phone, then replaced the whole unit that same day. They hauled the old tank off and didn't leave so much as a puddle behind."
"The relief valve pipe kept dripping and I didn't know if it was a big deal. The tech checked our water pressure and found it was way too high, then added an expansion tank and a pressure reducing valve. No more drips, and he showed me how to test the valve once a year."
"The pilot on our gas water heater kept going out, and I was relighting it every other day. The technician found a worn thermocouple and replaced it on the spot. Hasn't gone out since, and he explained what to watch for going forward."
We treat your home the way we'd treat our own: thoroughly, honestly, and with an eye on the long term. Here's the standard you can count on from us every time.
Our team focuses on keeping heaters alive with simple, scheduled care. If you want years more from your current tank, our maintenance visits drain sediment, check the anode rod, and test the relief valve. No surprises, no hidden fees. This approach is why so many homeowners recommend us.
We size every replacement to the first-hour rating or flow rate you actually need rather than defaulting to whatever's on the truck. Installations include the details that matter: correct venting, a properly piped relief valve, an expansion tank where required, and a drain pan where needed. You get a heater that performs for years, not just on day one.
Hands-on experience is the real benchmark for water heater work. Every technician on our team is a seasoned pro across gas, electric, tankless, and heat pump units, so your home is serviced according to manufacturer specs and local code.
