Costs

Repair and replacement sit a long way apart on a hot water system, so it is worth asking which one you are being quoted for and why. Elements, thermostats and valves are usually worth repairing. A rusted tank is not.

Our indicative ranges are there so you can tell a fair quote from an optimistic one. Ask for parts and labour to be shown separately — it makes the two easy to compare.
