Your Water Heater Quit. Here Is What to Do Next

Fast, honest installation from a Portland plumber you can trust.

Cold water in the morning is a bad way to start your day. Whether your water heater failed overnight, is leaking, or is simply too old to keep up, PDX Plumber can have a new unit installed, often the same day you call.

Nolan has 25+ years of plumbing experience and has installed hundreds of water heaters across Portland and the surrounding metro. He will assess your home, walk you through your options clearly, and give you a firm price before any work starts. No upsells. No pressure. Just reliable local service.

Tank or Tankless: Which Water Heater Fits Your Home?

We install both and will help you choose the right fit.

Both tank and tankless water heaters have their place depending on your household size, budget, and hot water habits. Here is a quick comparison:

Tank water heaters store a set amount of hot water (usually 40 to 50 gallons) and keep it ready at all times. They cost less upfront and are straightforward to replace. Tankless water heaters heat water on demand and never run out, but they require a larger upfront investment. They last nearly twice as long as a tank unit and use significantly less energy over time.

Nolan will look at your home's existing setup, your gas or electrical capacity, and your household's usage before making a recommendation. You get the right unit for your situation, not the most expensive one on the shelf.
