Is Your Hot Water on the Fritz? Here’s What to Watch For
A failing water heater can leave you without hot water or cause damage if ignored. At Olympic Plumbing Technology, we help Olympia homeowners recognize the warning signs early, before you’re stuck with a cold shower or a flooded utility room. If any of these issues sound familiar, it’s time to schedule service:
-
Inconsistent or No Hot Water: If your water runs cold quickly or never gets warm, your unit may need repair or replacement.
-
Strange Noises From the Tank: Rumbling, popping, or banging sounds can mean sediment buildup or internal damage.
-
Rusty or Discolored Water: Corrosion inside the tank can cause rust-colored water and signal tank failure.
-
Water Leaks Around the Base: Leaking around the unit often points to a crack or failing seal that needs urgent attention.
-
Fluctuating Water Pressure: Poor or uneven flow from hot taps can be tied to water heater or line issues.
-
Unit Age Over 10 Years: Older systems are more prone to failure and usually less energy-efficient — routine checks are essential.

We had Olympic Plumbing Technology come out and replace our old kitchen faucet with a new one that we supplied and the three angle stops. Morgan did a wonderful job; he was very professional and knowledgeable. There was a small pin hole leak in the short supply line pipe threads for one of the angle stops that was hard to stop. He ended up replacing the pipe at no extra charge. He finished the insulation and thoroughly cleaned up the area. Thanks, Morgan, for a job well done.

Danny was excellent. I actually ended up resolving my own problem right before he arrived. But, he was still willing to do a quick inspection of my work on my water heater and make sure it was truly resolved with no cost to me for their drive over / dispatch or inspection. Very personable, communicative of the ETA, and would be happy to work with them again if I ever needed to.

Had Nate out to look at a few plumbing issues I want addressed. He is very knowledgeable and personable and we look forward to having him back next week to get started. He ensured my wife and I understood exactly what he was proposing to do and didn’t try to upsell us on options we didn’t really need.
In addition, Sarah K. who called to set up the initial appointment was great too!
Thanks Nate and Sarah K.!

We called for a leak inspection and received same day appointment. We receIved notifications that our technician would be at our home soon with a name and picture id. Nick arrived on time and went over the home and inspected where we might have possible leak. We discussed issue found and nick sat down and explained how we might resolve the issue. He provided estimate and explained service and membership. Scheduled date and time for work to be completed. We highly recommend this company.

Courteous and efficient, personable and competent. Sticker shock from cost, but we’ve never had to call a plumber before, so we don’t really know how this compares...
