Unique Repair Services, Inc. replaces water heaters for homeowners in Des Plaines, IL, and the surrounding suburbs. If yours is leaking, running out of hot water, or getting old, we can help you decide whether it’s time for a new unit and handle the swap. We replace both tank and tankless water heaters that run on gas or electric, and every replacement is a contractor-grade A.O. Smith unit.
We handle the whole job, including any gas line, venting, or plumbing changes the new unit needs, or moving the water heater to a better spot. Every replacement is done by a licensed plumber, and we apply for all required permits.
For water heater replacement in Des Plaines, IL, and the surrounding areas, get in touch with us today and schedule an appointment.
Most households don’t think about hot water until it’s gone. A failing water heater can mean cold showers and, in the worst cases, water on the basement floor.
We’ll look at your current unit, talk through your household’s hot water needs, and help you decide between a traditional tank water heater and a tankless model that heats water on demand. We install contractor-grade A.O. Smith units, not the consumer models sold at big-box home stores. We supply every unit we install, so we can stand behind both the water heater and the work.

Waiting too long on a failing water heater can turn an inconvenience into a mess. A leaking tank can get worse without warning, and water damage to floors, walls, and stored belongings often costs more than the water heater itself. Replacing it on your schedule, before it fails, is far less stressful than an emergency.
Water heaters involve water, high temperatures, and either gas or high-voltage electrical connections. A DIY swap can lead to leaks, scalding, or gas and electrical hazards. Choosing a professional team means the old unit is safely disconnected and the new one is installed and checked properly. It also means getting the right equipment: we install contractor-grade A.O. Smith tank and tankless water heaters, and haul-away of the old unit is included.
We stand behind every water heater we install. Our 90-day labor and 1-year parts guarantee covers water heater work too.

It depends on the unit’s age, the tank’s condition, and what’s wrong. A leaking tank generally means replacement; a bad pilot light, thermocouple, gas valve, or blower motor can often be repaired. Our no-obligation inspection will show which one you’re dealing with.
