No hot water is urgent in a way most plumbing is not, and we treat it that way. We will also tell you honestly when a tank is not worth repairing.
Most water heater faults are inexpensive parts — a thermocouple, a thermostat, an element, a relief valve, a gas control. On a tank with years left in it, replacing one of those is clearly the right call.
Salt air near the bay is harder on exterior venting and fittings than it is a few kilometres inland.
The judgement comes with older tanks. Spending real money on a component inside an eleven-year-old tank is usually throwing it away, so you get both numbers and you decide. We would rather say that than take the repair fee twice.
If the tank is actively leaking, shut off the cold supply valve above it and the gas or the breaker, then call — that one is an emergency.

Close to Boundary Bay the ground sits low and the water table is high, which puts real load on sump pumps through the wet season.
