Local rules to know
In Texas, water heater work is plumbing work done by plumbers who hold a license from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. Replacing a water heater usually involves a permit from the Town of Little Elm Building Inspections division, plus code items like a temperature and pressure relief valve and proper venting.
The Lakefront District is a dining and shopping area on the water. Many homes have attic water heaters. In short, water comes from the Town of Little Elm, sewer service from the town's wastewater system, and permits come from the Town of Little Elm Building Inspections division.
Homes in Little Elm: what pros run into
Little Elm sits on the shore of Lewisville Lake. Clay soil can shift slabs in long dry spells.
Part of the town gets electricity and gas from CoServ, a member-owned cooperative. Water heaters here often sit in a garage, closet or even an attic, where a leak can do real damage. A drain pan and a shutoff within reach help. Spring hailstorms are common.
Many water heaters here sit in garages or attics, so check the drain pan and venting when you have it serviced. The town grew from about 3,600 people in 2000 to more than 50,000.
What to have ready
Note whether the problem is no hot water, not enough hot water, or a leak.

What people ask us
Why does my hot water smell like rotten eggs?
Bacteria in the tank can react with the anode rod and cause a sulfur smell. A pro can flush the tank or swap the anode for a different type.
Is it normal for a water heater to make popping noises?
Popping or rumbling usually means sediment at the bottom of the tank. Flushing can help, but older tanks may be near the end of their life.
What makes Little Elm a little different for water heater repair?
