Upgrade Your Water Heater And Save Big. Tampa hard water builds inches of sediment inside a typical residential water heater. Watch the Titan crew cut one open on a real Tampa job, count the scoops of sediment pulled out, take $100 off the new install for every cup (up to $500 off), and recommend the right filter system so it doesn't happen again.
Here in the Tampa Bay area, we have very hard water. That hard water accumulates in the bottom of your water heater. You can see this water heater here. We've got a lot of rust also coming out of this heater. What we're going to do is cut open this heater. When we cut open the heater, we're going to count the scoops of sediment that we pull out of this heater. We're going to give $100 off for every cup of sediment we pull out of the heater up to like $500 off of the new heater install. Then we're going to see if we can recommend a filter system to take care of the new heater and protect our house in the future. Let's get started. All right, we've cut this heater open. Now we're going to count the scoops in here. Let's get started on this. One, two, three, four, five, six. There's six in here, but that's just like a soup. So there's probably another two or three. But then when you look on this side over here, there's twice as much sediment over here. Then you look on the ground. So I'm going to say this is like 15 scoops of sediment. Hey, how you doing? I'm good. How are you? Good. I'm Joe. We cut your heater open. Yeah. And it's beautiful inside. If you like sediment, we got over five cups for you. So we're going to take $500 off. I figured that was funny. What's wrong with it? Now if you'd like, we could put in a filter system to keep this from happening again. So we can go over that with you, but we would recommend a filter, at least a sediment filter, and that would keep all the sand from piling up inside your heater. Okay, we've done a water heater challenge. We've taken $500 off the install of a new heater. We are recommending a filter system to take care of this sediment problem in the future. As you can see on this one, this is about probably what's on the ground and still left in the heater. We've got about 5 gallons of sediment that was in this heater. And that means on a 40-gallon heater, you only had about 35 gallons of hot water in here at any one time. And the bottom element was probably buried, so really the top element was the only one that was producing hot water. For more information on water heaters, go to titanplumbingandelectric.com.
While it's tempting to fix plumbing problems yourself, sometimes the issue is too complicated or rooted in the system to handle without a professional. Call Titan Plumbing & Electric when you need a dependable Tampa plumber. Same-day service, flat-rate pricing, and a 100% satisfaction guarantee since 1994.
Tampa Bay homes face a specific stack of plumbing realities: aggressive root intrusion in clay-tile sewer laterals, polybutylene supply lines reaching end-of-life in 80s/90s subdivisions, slab construction that hides leaks until the floor gets warm, and water hardness that shortens water heater life. We diagnose with cameras, acoustic listening, and pressure tests before recommending any repair. So you pay for the right fix, not a guess.
Most homeowners call a plumber once every few years, and most calls fall into a short list of repeat offenders:
Clogged drains are the most common plumbing issue Tampa homeowners face. With a little forethought, you can prevent most of them: avoid pouring grease, coffee grounds, or fibrous food waste down the disposal, use sink strainers in showers and tubs, and run hot water for 30 seconds after each kitchen-sink drain.

I will recommend Titan and Electric to everyone I know. Not only are they professional but they honored everything they said and got the job done quickly and efficiently while still being friendly. I called in the morning and I had my new water heater by the afternoon. Thank you so much for a wonderful job!
My water heater broke and they came on time the following morning. They repaired it in record time at a reasonable price. I would recommend them to anyone because I was very pleased.
Awesome company! They came in and replaced my hot water heater and they are friendly, efficient, fast and great at what they do! For any of my future plumbing needs I will be calling Titan Plumbing! Thank you!
We recently had our two water heaters replaced. Ariel did a great job making sure that they were installed and working. We have an older house and Ariel had to solve some connection issues to get everything installed and operational. Titan was professional and skilled and the hot water and water pressure are great now.
After this year's hurricanes, Titan is the only business I can rely on to show up when they say they will be there. Months after the storms blew through, we struggle to work with any company because the supply chain is so limited. I wish all companies were as honest as Titan. Their field technicians are not only highly skilled but very kind. Thank you Titan for your enduring commitment to integrity and great service!
Scott of Titan Plumbing replaced a troublesome tankless water heater for me today (a Saturday) and did a very good job! He was professional, courteous, and efficient in his efforts. I will recommend him in the future!

Jed from Titan ran a new water line and hooked up a new sink for our outdoor kitchen. Jed was very polite and efficient, and did a great job for us!
I was running late getting home and the plumber waited for an hour on me. I appreciate him and his partner's patience. They fixed my issue fast and didn't complain. I haven't had a problem with my plumbing thus far. This is the company I would love to come fix my plumbing issues and I will refer them to friends in a heartbeat.
Very impressed. Was in a bind on a Saturday. Victor came out within 90 minutes of my call and was very knowledgeable about the Flologic leak detection system we had that showed a possible leak. Within 15 minutes he advised the issue was with the valve for that system that got stuck in the off position. He fixed it, tested the system and we were good to go. I'm very thankful for getting in touch with the right company. Victor was very professional, friendly, and if we have any further plumbing or electric issues we will call Titan.
