Plumbing Issues? Don't Panic—Your Appliance Fix Is Here

You're in the middle of a cold shower, your sink's running hot but the shower's freezing, or that extractor fan in your bathroom just gave up. Sounds familiar? These aren't always 'plumbing issues'—they're usually appliance problems hiding in plain sight. We're Taunton's appliance repair crew, and we fix exactly these headaches. No need to call a plumber for a broken water heater or boiler. We've got your back.

Water heaters are the sneaky culprits behind most 'plumbing' nightmares. If your hot water only works at the sink but not the shower, it's almost always the water heater tank or valve—not your pipes. Same goes for that slow leak under the sink: it's likely the water heater's anode rod or fittings, not a burst pipe. We've seen it a hundred times. Just a quick check and a $50 part fixes it, not a full plumbing overhaul.

Water Heater Woes? We've Got the Fix

Ever wonder why your water heater leaks from the tank bottom? It’s usually sediment buildup or a failing anode rod. Skipping a yearly flush? That’s the real cause. We’ll drain the tank, clean out the gunk, and replace the rod—no messy pipes, just hot water in 90 minutes. And if it’s a 10-year-old heater? We’ll tell you straight if it’s time to replace it or just fix it. No upsells, no stress.

Boilers & Extractor Fans: Your Home’s Silent Struggles

A boiler that won’t stay on? It’s rarely the 'plumbing'—it’s usually a thermostat or electrical glitch. Same with extractor fans: if your bathroom fan died, it’s not a plumbing job. It’s an electrical issue or a clogged vent. We’ll sort it out in under an hour, no matter if it’s a bathroom fan or a broken boiler. You’ll get back to normal life faster than waiting for a plumber to show up.

Here’s the thing: you don’t need a plumber for these. We’re appliance specialists, not plumbers. But we fix the exact problems that *feel* like plumbing. So next time your water heater acts up or your boiler quits, skip the confusing call to 'plumbing' and call us. We’ll be at your door in Taunton within 24 hours, fix it right, and keep your home running smoothly. No more guessing, no more cold showers. Just real fixes, done right.
