After all, who has time to go through all of the hurdles that are required when you need a new water heater as soon as possible?

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Water Heater
How do you know it’s time to replace your water heater? Of all of your home’s major appliances, your water heater arguably has one of the shortest expected lifespans, and that leads to a lot of confusion as to whether you should repair your system or replace it entirely. How do you know if your problem is too severe to bother repairing? When you call Bailey Plumbing Heating Cooling, we will provide you with our honest and transparent opinion as to the best course of action and provide you with options whenever possible.

- Your hot water smells or tastes of metal

How to Handle a Leaking Water Heater
A leaking water heater is a tremendous problem. Not only can it prevent your Central New Jersey home from having the hot water that it needs, but it can even cause damage to your home by ruining drywall, rotting structure, causing mold growth, and so much more. Leaks are not one of those issues that can be easily fixed either—they only get worse, and the only way to solve them is to completely replace your water heater for good. When your water heater springs a leak, our plumbing experts recommend reaching out for a replacement as soon as possible.
Leaking water heaters are completely impractical to repair. Unless the leak happens around a component that can be easily fixed or replaced, leaks are extremely difficult and labor-intensive to resolve. For this reason, we strongly recommend any leaking tank be replaced as soon as possible. At Bailey Plumbing Heating Cooling, our Central New Jersey water heater replacement pros offer fast response and reliable fixes for any leaking tanks, getting you the reliable and safe hot water you need as soon as possible.
What to Consider When Buying a New Water Heater
Whether your water heater is leaking or showing other signs of failure, it’s crucial you invest in a new system to keep your hot water flowing. However, with so many different options available on the market you may be uncertain of what type of water heater is best for you and your home.
How Do I Choose a Water Heater?
- Decide what type of system you’d prefer, whether it be tank or tankless
- Identify what level of energy efficiency you’d prefer
- Determine the type of fuel required, such as natural gas, propane, or electric
- Calculate how much storage or the capacity that will be required for your home’s hot water demands
If you need additional help selecting a unit, reach out to our Central New Jersey water heater installation pros. We can walk you through the process and help you identify the system that is best for your hot water needs.
Considering a Tankless Water Heater Installation?
Also available in gas and electric models, tankless water heaters maintain ideal temperatures only for the amount of water needed at a given time – such as for a shower or a load of laundry. Tankless water heaters are an environmentally-friendly alternative to standard tank water heaters because they heat water only when needed. We can work with you to install, repair, or maintain your tankless water heater.

"Amazing service!"
Tech Andrew Stinemire was dispatched to my property for a sewer line back up. The issue was accessed from the outside. Andrew called before he started to explain everything thoroughly. After job was finished he followed up with another phone call. Andrews comportment was nothing short of stellar. I have used many plumbers and unfortunately they rush you off the phone. A lot of plumbers act as if they are doing you a favor. Not Andrew! He talked to me like an old friend and made sure I understood everything. We need more plumbers like him. He understands very well that ultimately this is a service business and the customer needs to be treated with deference and respect- T. Hearn -
"Quick Response and Professional Technician"
The technician, Andrew, was friendly and kept me informed of what he was doing with the repair. It ended up being a little more work than initially anticipated because the pipes were old. He was very professional. I would definitely use Bailey again! Price was definitely reasonable. I thank Bailey for their quick response and the professionalism of their technician!- Debbie B. -
"Excellent, quick service"
Today we needed help with what we thought was a blocked sewer. We were referred to Bailey through American Water. Andrew was our technician. He arrived quickly and was very knowledgeable about our problem. He identified the issue, did the work and resolved the problem. We are very pleased with every aspect of our service call today and highly recommend this company.- Deborah O. -

"Oliver your Technician was Super Professional"
Hi Everyone... I just want to thank Bailey's for sending out Oliver to fix my Shower. Oliver was knowledgeable, considerate and professional. The cost of the repairs was expensive, but unfortunately the piece that needed replacing was Old and impossible to remove from the outside unit. I know Oliver tried to keep costs down. We want to thank him for all his hard work. We think it was worth every penny. We now have a Nice hot shower. We certainly can't live without that. Thanks Bailey Plumbing... Have a Good Day.!!😁- Carol D. -
"Thanks Michael!"
Sewer backed up. Panic among the troops. Michael from Bailey came right out, updating us on his ETA via text. One LOOOOOONG snake later, our system was unclogged. I enjoyed talking with Michael as well, gave me a few tips to try to eliminate (no pun!) this issue in future. Thanks Michael!!- Clement M. -
"Difficult Job done well!"
I had an outside leak from the water pipe entering our basement. The crew they sent had to dig to deep to find the elusive location. They were able to locate it and fix it witout damaging the adjacent brick walkway or the sourrounding areas. Amazing work!- Gary M. -
"Very polite and professional!"
They were on time and found the problem fast and had it repaired quickly. Very polite and professional. I would recommend them highly their prices are reasonable, too.- Richard S.
