Professional Water Heater Service You Can Trust
Water heater performance depends on more than the tank itself. Proper installation requires attention to the water connections, venting or electrical supply, temperature and pressure relief protection, expansion control, gas supply where applicable, and current code requirements.
With more than 20 years of trade experience, Stokes Plumbing & Mechanical provides careful evaluation, professional workmanship, and code-compliant water heater installation for Parkville homeowners.

Complete Water Heater Services
Service & Repair
If your water heater can be repaired safely and cost-effectively, we will recommend that option. We service both gas and electric tank-style water heaters and routinely address:
🚩 Thermostat and heating element failures
🚩 Gas valves and pilot assemblies
🚩 Venting and draft-related issues
🚩 Minor leaks and safety concerns
Our focus is restoring dependable hot water while helping you make an informed decision.
Installs/Replacements
When replacement is the better long-term solution, we provide professional installation of properly sized water heaters suited to your household’s needs. Installation typically includes:
🚩 Removal and disposal of the existing unit
🚩 Installation of the new water heater
🚩 Required venting and safety upgrades
🚩 Full system startup and testing
We take the time to ensure the system is installed correctly and operating as intended.
Tankless Upgrades
Tankless water heaters can offer improved efficiency and continuous hot water, but they are not the right solution for every home. We evaluate your plumbing system, gas supply, venting, and usage patterns to help determine whether a tankless upgrade is appropriate.
