Start with the problem you want solved
Explain whether the problem is no hot water, inconsistent temperature, a visible leak or insufficient supply during busy use.
Sandy: planning the visit
When several bathrooms have different hot-water performance, list their distance from the heater and which fixtures are slow or inconsistent. Ask the plumber to evaluate the pattern before recommending a larger tank. For replacement proposals, compare installation details, access and disposal as well as the appliance price.
