When a water heater lets go at midnight — spraying from a fitting, pooling across the garage, or dripping steadily through a ceiling — waiting until morning is not an option. Our emergency dispatch line at (833) 713-2101 is answered around the clock, and our trucks carry the valves, fittings, elements, and pans needed to stop most leaks on the first visit.
DeSoto's storm season makes emergency calls spike: power surges fry electric elements, pressure swings pop weakened fittings, and wind-driven rain finds garage-installed units. Our dispatchers triage every call by severity — active flooding and gas concerns jump the queue — and give you a straight arrival window, not a four-hour shrug.
Active leak, no hot water, or gas smell — don't wait. Call Emergency Line
Contain: we shut off the cold-water feed and the power or gas supply, stopping the leak at its source.
Diagnose: tank body, valves, fittings, and controls are tested to find the true failure point.
Repair or stabilize: repairable leaks are fixed on the spot; failed tanks are made safe and scheduled for same-day replacement.
Storm-season note: after major North Texas storms we run extended emergency hours and stage extra replacement units, because surge-damaged elements and pressure-spike fitting failures cluster in the 48 hours after a storm front passes.

During service hours, most DeSoto addresses see a technician within a few hours; overnight and storm-surge calls are triaged by severity. Call and describe the leak — we'll give you an honest window immediately.
Shut off the cold-water valve above the heater, kill power at the breaker (electric) or turn the gas knob to pilot (gas), and move valuables away from the water. If you smell gas, leave the home and call your gas utility first.
The diagnosis range is the same $89–$149; repair pricing follows our standard ranges, confirmed on-site before work begins. No surprise surcharges.
