What Sky Lake homeowners call us about for water heater repair & install

Aging tanks in pre-1980 Sky Lake homes

In Sky Lake neighborhoods built before 1980, the original water heater was replaced at least once already. That replacement is now itself 12 to 15 years old in many homes. Florida hard water from the regional aquifer scales the tank bottom and shortens lifespan compared to soft-water regions. Tank-bottom leaks are the typical end-of-life signal.
