About this service

Water Heater Replacement for Rental Properties in Carrollton is the full removal and reinstall of a failed or aging tank or tankless unit in a tenant-occupied or vacant rental, done to Georgia Plumbing License standards and the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC). We drain the old tank with a water heater drain pump, cut out corroded nipples with a tube cutter, and rebuild the connection with copper pipe or PEX tubing, brass fittings, dielectric unions, and flexible connectors. Every job ends with a T&P valve test, a gas leak check on gas units, and a thermostat set to 120 degrees Fahrenheit before we sign off.
Most Carrollton rentals we see are 40, 50, or 75-gallon tanks tucked into closets, garages, and crawlspaces of older housing stock near Downtown Carrollton and along the Belt Line.

What's included
What's Included in a Rental Water Heater Replacement
Every Water Heater Replacement for Rental Properties in Carrollton job includes the core work below. Add-ons like expansion tanks, pressure relief valves, and venting upgrades are quoted up front if your setup needs them.
New Tank and Fittings
Your new Rheem, A. O. Smith, or Bradford White tank comes with fresh dielectric unions, flexible connectors, brass fittings, Teflon tape, and pipe dope. We don't reuse old fittings that could leak in six months.
Code-Correct Connections
Copper pipe or PEX tubing, properly sized gas flex connector on gas units, and venting that meets NFPA 54. We test the T&P valve, check for gas leaks, and set the thermostat to 120 degrees Fahrenheit before sign-off.
Permit and Warranty Registration
We pull the required permit for the swap and register the manufacturer warranty in your name. You get the paperwork by email so your records are clean if you ever file an insurance claim or sell the property.
Cleanup and Haul-Away
Drop cloths go down before we start, and the old tank leaves with us. Your tenant walks into a dry, working utility closet, and you don't have to schedule a separate junk pickup or disposal run.
How it works
How Our Replacement Process Works
You call (943) 469-0029 and describe the unit: leaking tank, no hot water, rusty water, or popping noises. We ask the tank size, fuel type, and closet dimensions, then give you a price range on the spot. Most Carrollton calls are booked same-day or next-morning.
Our licensed plumber arrives in a marked truck, checks the anode rod, heating element, and T&P valve, and confirms the tank is past saving. We show you the failure point, then lock in the final price before touching a wrench. Fifteen minutes, no charge.
We shut the gas or breaker, connect a water heater drain pump, and empty the tank. Corroded nipples get cut with a tube cutter, and the old unit comes out through the same path it went in. Expect 45 to 60 minutes for a standard 50-gallon pull.
New unit goes in on fresh dielectric unions and flexible connectors, with copper pipe or PEX tubing, brass fittings, Teflon tape, and pipe dope. We test the T&P valve, check for gas leaks with a multimeter and soap test, and set the thermostat to 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
We haul the old tank to disposal, wipe the floor, and email you the invoice plus the manufacturer warranty registration for the new unit. Rheem, A. O. Smith, and Bradford White tanks carry six to twelve-year tank warranties depending on model.

Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use
Water heater drain pump
Empties a full 50-gallon tank in minutes instead of letting it gravity-drain for an hour. Cuts the removal window and reduces the chance of a floor spill.
Tube cutter and flaring tool
Cuts copper pipe cleanly and forms flare fittings on gas lines. Clean cuts mean fewer leaks and a connection that passes inspection the first time.
Multimeter
Tests heating elements, thermostats, and breakers on electric units. We confirm the failure point before quoting a replacement, so you're not paying for a tank you don't need.
T&P valve tester
Verifies the temperature and pressure relief valve opens at the correct setpoint. A failed valve is a safety issue, and we test every one before sign-off.
Pipe wrench and soldering torch
Standard tools for breaking loose old fittings and sweating new copper connections. We carry both because Carrollton rentals have a mix of copper and PEX plumbing.
Expansion tank and dielectric unions
Protects the new tank from thermal expansion and electrolysis. Both are cheap insurance against a premature failure and a repeat callout.
Real results
Before and after.
Water Heater Replacement for Rental Properties
Leaking 50-Gallon Tank in Downtown Carrollton
A tenant called at 6 a.m. with water spreading across a utility closet floor. The tank was 12 years old, the anode rod was gone, and the bottom of the tank had rusted through. The tenant had no hot water and was threatening to break the lease.
After: We shut off the supply, pumped the tank dry, and installed a new 50-gallon Rheem by early afternoon. The floor was dried and wiped down, and the tenant had hot water before dinner. Total job time was under four hours.

Rusty Water in a Josey Ranch Duplex
Both units had rusty hot water and popping noises from sediment. The tanks were nine years old, and the owner was getting monthly complaints. A previous plumber had only flushed the tanks, which bought a few weeks but didn't fix the corrosion.
After: We replaced both tanks on the same day, unit by unit, so one side always had hot water. New anode rods went in with the tanks, and we added expansion tanks to both systems. Rusty water complaints stopped immediately.

After: We tested with a multimeter, confirmed the tank was corroding, and replaced it with a 40-gallon A. O. Smith unit the same day. New dielectric unions and flexible connectors went in with it. The tenant had hot water by 6 p.m.

Rental Water Heater Problems We Fix in Carrollton
These are the calls we get most from Carrollton landlords. Each one has a fix, and most can be handled in a single visit with a tank already on the truck.
Ask a pro →Leaking tank flooding a tenant's closet
We treat active leaks as priority calls, walk you through shutting off the supply valve, and dispatch a plumber with a replacement tank. Most Carrollton emergency swaps finish the same day, and we dry the closet floor before we leave.
No hot water and a tenant threatening to move
We diagnose on-site with a multimeter, checking the heating element, thermostat, and breaker. If the tank is dead, we replace it the same visit with a 40 or 50-gallon unit from the truck, so hot water is back within hours.
Rusty water and popping noises from sediment
We pull the anode rod and inspect the tank interior. If corrosion has gone too far, we replace the unit and install a fresh anode rod so the new tank lasts its full warranty period. If it's salvageable, we flush the tank and replace the rod.
Failed T&P valve or expansion tank causing pressure spikes
We test the T&P valve, check the expansion tank charge, and replace whichever part has failed. On a full replacement, we install a new expansion tank and pressure relief valve so the system starts clean.

What Carrollton Landlords Say

“My tenant called at 7 a.m. with water everywhere. I called these guys and a plumber was there by 10 with a 50-gallon Rheem on the truck. Tank swapped, floor dried, tenant had hot water by 2 p.m. Flat price, no surprise fees, and they texted me photos of the finished install.”

“I manage eleven rentals across Carroll County and these are the only plumbers I call for water heaters now. They work around tenants, they know the code, and they send me the warranty paperwork without me asking. Last month they swapped three tanks in one day across two buildings.”

“My old tank was rusting out and I kept putting it off. They came out, showed me the corroded anode rod, and replaced the unit the same afternoon. Also swapped the expansion tank and T&P valve while they were in there. No more rusty water and my tenant stopped complaining.”

✓ VerifiedMost Carrollton rental swaps run $950 to $2,200 in 2026, depending on tank size, fuel type, and whether we're moving the unit or reusing the existing connections. A standard 50-gallon gas swap with a mid-grade Rheem or A. O. Smith tank sits near the middle of that range. Tankless and hybrid heat pump replacements run higher because of venting and electrical work.

Drain and removal runs 45 to 60 minutes, install and testing another 60 to 90 minutes, and cleanup and paperwork about 15 minutes. Tankless and hybrid heat pump installs take longer, often a full day, because of venting, gas line sizing, and electrical requirements.
