Signs Your Water Heater Needs to Be Repaired
Your water heater is one of the most important appliances in your home. It’s also one appliance that’s prone to repair issues that can cause extensive damage to your home. Detecting issues and getting water heater repairs early is essential for your comfort. Some common indicators include:
- It’s Leaking – If you’re noticing that there’s water around your water heater, chances are that it needs repairing or replacing. Even though this might be obvious, sometimes the leak is really small. That’s why ongoing maintenance is so important.
- Odd Tasting/Smelling Water – If your water has a metallic flavor, an odd smell, or it’s discolored, there’s a good chance that the lines are corroded. If your hot and cold water both look rusty, it’s a good chance that your water heater needs to be repaired.
- Strange Sounds – Even though it’s normal to have some sounds coming from your water heater, things like popping, banging or loud cracking sounds are not normal. This could mean that mineral deposits are building up and overheating.
At Marc Francis Plumbing, we offer water heater repair services that can take care of many of these issues. If the damage is severe enough, we can also help you find a replacement water heater and get it installed quickly, keeping your comfort as our top priority.
How Do Clogged Drains Affect Your Home?
As far as plumbing repairs go, a clogged drain is probably the most common. It can affect your home in a few different ways, including:
- Low water pressure
- Slow drainage
- Clogging in multiple fixtures
- Foul smelling drains
- Gurgling noises in toilets
While many clogs have a simple solution, sometimes these issues can create a deep-rooted issue in your plumbing. At Marc Francis Plumbing, we offer drain cleaning solutions for hard-to-remove blockages. With a little help from our pros, you can enjoy free-flowing plumbing at all times!

The Importance of Emergency Repairs
A plumbing emergency is always a cause for concern because of the damage it can do to your home. Issues like burst pipes and gas leaks can both have a damaging effect on your home and health. Water damage turns into electrical damage and mold growth, adding more expenses to an already stressful situation.
At Marc Francis Plumbing, we’re here to help. Our team offers 24-hour emergency plumbing services throughout the Tri-Cities. We take the time to inspect your plumbing and find a long-lasting solution that ensures your home comfort and peace of mind.

After receiving a STRONG recommendation for Marc Francis Plumbing, I did some research on my own & EVERYTHING I read was positive. And it DID NOT disappoint! Same day service and when they arrived PRECISELY on time, they had everything with them to make my repairs. THEY WILL MOST DEFINITELY BE MY PLUMBERS FOR LIFE. I CAN'T GIVE THEM A HIGH ENOUGH RECOMMENDATION.
Experts Providing Professional Service!

Plumbing issues are never expected - or generally welcome - but inevitably they happen to us all. Who you hire to help you resolve your plumbing issues makes all the difference in the world. After reading several positive reviews online, my husband and I chose Marc Francis Plumbing for a recent plumbing issue we experienced. I honestly can't say enough great things about Marc and his team! They gave us a specific start time - and were here when they said they would be (no waiting around all day). They provided expert guidance, walking us through the issues so we understood exactly what was going on, and then recommended solutions based on their years of experience and training. They were respectful of our home, laying down towels to ensure things stayed clean and putting back anything that was moved in order to do their jobs properly. Marc and his two employees with him, JJ and JD, were professional, friendly, and personable from start to finish. I highly recommend Marc Francis Plumbing to anyone in need of expert plumbing services, who want a professional and quality job done. I will absolutely call on them again myself in the future, as well. Thank you all so much for the important work you do and the great service you provide!!
