Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from East Boston homeowners.
Replace your water heater in East Boston when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.

Real feedback from homeowners who trusted Magnet Plumbing with their plumbing projects.
"Been meaning to write this for a while. Our sewer line collapsed and we had three quotes — two wanted to dig up the whole yard, Magnet recommended trenchless. They finished in two days, no damage to the lawn, and the price came in thousands under the other guys. The Magnet team knows what they are doing and I will not hesitate to call them again."
"Great job! Definitely recommend to others. Quick response, professional work, and fair pricing. Would use again without hesitation."
"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."
