Cold showers, a rumbling tank, a pilot light that won't stay lit, or a tankless unit throwing an error code — a failing water heater rarely fixes itself, and most failures give warning signs first. Our Dolton technicians diagnose both tank and tankless systems on the first visit.
Our Dolton technicians are trained across both fuel types and both system designs, not specialized in just one.
