Burst Water Heater

Cleanup Details & Information

What Should You Do When Your Water Heater Bursts?

It is not always obvious why a water heater may burst. The heating element may overheat the water due to a malfunctioning thermostat, causing the volume inside the tank to be too much for the seams to hold. Or a fitting may have corroded, resulting in a major leak. To prevent further damage to your home, you need to act quickly no matter what the cause may be.

That is when you call Houston RestorePros. We offer fast emergency services related to a burst water heater.

A Nightmare Scenario

The scene dreaded by every homeowner is far too common. You receive a phone call from a neighbor or the fire department while you are away at work, traveling, or on vacation – Your old water heater finally gave out and burst, allowing water to flow quickly into your residence and flooding your home. It could take months to completely clean and remove rust and other harmful materials from your home, not to mention the damage that dozens of gallons of water will do alone.

Regardless of how well you maintain your storage-type water heater, this is an inevitable outcome if the water heater is not replaced with old age. A catastrophic failure caused by mineral deposits or old equipment could eventually leave your home in a mess, but the severity of damage can vary considerably depending on several factors. You might want to brush up on how devastating a burst water heater can be if you still use a storage heater in your house, especially if you’ve noticed it running slower lately.

Burst tanks may not always shut off automatically, so if nobody is around to shut off the power, the heater could run for hours after the tank bursts. It’s unlikely for your water heater to burst, but the chance of catastrophic damage caused by faulty water heaters still remains, so it’s strange that homeowners would put up with the risk at all — especially when tankless water heaters provide superior performance without the risks associated with conventional home heaters.

Juan, Tony, and all the folks over at HRP were fantastic. They came out very soon after we called them and were responsive throughout the several weeks remediation and repair process. They remediated and repaired significant damage caused by a water leak in an interior bathroom that had spread into an adjacent pantry and through an adjacent room. We will definitely use their services again if ever needed.

After our house flooded on Christmas we called Houston Restore Pros and they took time from their holiday to come out and assist us and walk us through the next steps. From mitigation to reconstruction the process was seamless and the experience was great. The office worked side by side with our insurance and got all the tough questions answered for us and handled everything on that end. They were able to restore my home to even better than they found it. We’re very happy we choose Houston Restore Pros.

Houston Restore Pros worked well with our insurance. Joe and crew were compassionate and highly efficient at the moisture mitigation. Joel was great at coordinating the different phases and letting us know what to expect. Dennis and team Manuel, Daniel, and Alex went above and beyond expectations! Joe and Kirk and their crews carefully moved the furniture out and back. I would hire this group again!

Ben and his team completed this project for us as sewer water backed up into the home. They did the demo which consisted of removing the base boards, tile/wood flooring, sheet rock, shower, etc. They put back the home in a timely and professional manner!
They installed sheet rock, tape and float, installed base boards, painted walls and trim, built a new vanity and painted, installed new plumbing fixtures, completed the tile shower with pan, tile in bath areas, and wood in bedrooms and living areas. Very reasonable pricing and completed a few small extras without hassling for additional monies.
I highly recommend Houston Restore Pro to complete any project you may have at your home or office!

We had a little flooding inside our house back in July 2024 and when we informed our insurance company, they have suggested Houston Restore Pros as one of the cleanup company. In a matter of few hours, Joe was at the house supervising the mitigation process which they did meticulously. We were satisfied with the results that we decided to let them finish the restoration and reconstruction of the entire first floor under the able watch of Ben who was very responsive to all our questions and making sure that he corrected everything that needed to be addressed promptly. I would highly recommend Houston Restore Pros to anyone who would be in the same predicament. Thanks again Joe, Ben and the entire crew.

Our house flooded in May and needed to be restored from 2 feet up down to the concrete foundation. Houston Restore Pros had us back in our house in December and it looks better than it did before the flood. Ben was very helpful during the process and whenever we needed a repair fixed or changed he was easy to get ahold of and was quick to send out someone to fix it. You can tell that he really cares about his customers. I've added some photos of the demo and the finished home. It really is beautiful.
