Your morning shower runs hot again. Your dishwasher actually cleans dishes. Your utility bill stops climbing because an inefficient tank isn’t working overtime just to give you lukewarm water.
That’s what happens when the repair is done correctly. No callbacks. No “let’s see if this works.” No waiting three days for parts while you heat water on the stove.
You get a water heater that works the way it should. And if it’s time to replace instead of repair, we’ll tell you straight—because a $300 fix on a 15-year-old tank that’ll fail again in six months isn’t doing you any favors. We’ve been doing this work in Brevard County since 2007, and we know the difference between a repair that buys you years and one that buys you weeks.
Most calls we take in June Park are same-day service. That’s not a marketing line—it’s how we run. You call in the morning, we’re there that afternoon. Water heater leaking in your garage? We’re handling it today, not scheduling you out until next Tuesday.
Drain Wizard is a family-owned plumbing company based in Cocoa. We’ve been serving June Park and the rest of Brevard County since 2007. Our founder started in this trade at 16, digging trenches and learning how systems actually work—not just how to sell them.
We’re licensed (CFC1428379), insured, and we don’t send out a different tech every time. When you call us, you’re getting someone who knows what they’re doing and won’t try to upsell you on equipment you don’t need.
June Park homeowners deal with hard water. The mineral content here is higher than a lot of Florida, which means sediment builds up faster in tanks. We see it constantly. That’s why we don’t just patch the problem—we look at what caused it and whether it’s going to happen again in three months.
You call or text us with the issue. We ask a few questions—what’s happening, how old is the unit, is there water on the floor. That helps us know what to bring and whether this is something we can fix today or if you’re looking at a replacement.
We schedule a time that works for you, usually same-day. When we arrive, we assess the water heater, test the components, and figure out what failed. Then we explain what we found, what it’ll take to fix, and what it costs. No surprise charges after the work is done.
If it’s a straightforward repair—thermostat, heating element, pressure valve—we fix it on the spot. If it’s a bigger issue, we walk you through your options: repair vs replace, tank vs tankless, what makes sense for your home and your budget. Then we do the work, test everything, clean up, and make sure you’ve got hot water before we leave.
You’re not waiting days for parts or dealing with a crew that shows up, pokes around, and tells you they need to come back. We carry common parts on the truck, and if we need something specific, we’re clear about timing upfront.

We handle everything from minor fixes to full replacements. Heating elements, thermostats, pressure relief valves, anode rods, leaking tanks, pilot light issues, gas valve problems—if it’s part of your water heater, we work on it.
We service all major brands: Rheem, AO Smith, Bradford White, Rinnai, Navien, and others. Tank-style and tankless. Gas and electric. If it heats water, we’ve fixed it before.
June Park sits near major employers like Northrop Grumman and L3Harris, and a lot of residents here own their homes—many of them valued over $600,000. That means you’re not looking for the cheapest fix. You’re looking for the right one. We get that. Our job is to keep your property protected and your systems running without dragging out the process or inflating the bill.
We also handle emergency calls. Water heater leaking at 9 p.m.? We’re available. No upcharge for evenings or weekends—just honest pricing and fast response. Florida’s hard water and humidity mean water heaters work harder here than they do in other states. Sediment buildup happens faster. Corrosion starts earlier. That’s why regular maintenance matters, and it’s why we don’t just fix the symptom—we address what’s wearing your system down.
If your unit is under 10 years old and the issue is a failed component—like a heating element, thermostat, or valve—repair usually makes sense. These parts wear out over time, and replacing them can buy you several more years of reliable service.
If your water heater is over 12 years old, leaking from the tank itself, or requiring frequent repairs, replacement is usually the smarter move. A leaking tank can’t be repaired—it means the inner lining has corroded, and the whole unit needs to go. Frequent repairs add up fast, and at a certain point you’re just throwing money at a system that’s on its way out.
We’ll tell you honestly which route makes sense. If a $250 repair gets you another five years, we’ll recommend it. If you’re looking at a $400 fix on a 14-year-old tank that’s already showing rust, we’ll recommend replacement and explain why.
Most leaks come from one of three places: the pressure relief valve, the drain valve, or the tank itself. The first two are fixable. The third means it’s time for a new water heater.
Pressure relief valves can leak if there’s too much pressure in the system or if the valve itself has failed. That’s a straightforward repair. Drain valves sometimes develop leaks after years of sediment buildup or if they weren’t fully closed after maintenance. Also fixable.
Tank leaks are different. They happen when the inside of the tank corrodes through, usually because the anode rod—which protects the tank from rust—wore out and wasn’t replaced. Once the tank itself is leaking, there’s no repair option. The unit has to be replaced. In June Park, where the water has a high mineral content, sediment accelerates this process. That’s why flushing your tank annually and replacing the anode rod every few years can add years to the life of your water heater.
Most repairs take one to three hours, start to finish. If we’re replacing a heating element or thermostat, that’s usually on the shorter end. If we’re dealing with a valve replacement or diagnosing a more complex issue, it might take closer to three hours.
Replacements take longer—typically four to six hours depending on the type of unit and whether we’re upgrading from tank to tankless or dealing with any code updates. We don’t rush the job just to get to the next call. Everything gets tested before we leave.
If we need a part that’s not on the truck, we’ll let you know upfront. For common components, we usually have what we need. For specialty parts or specific brands, we’ll tell you the lead time and get it ordered right away. We’re not in the business of stretching out jobs or making you wait longer than necessary.
If you’re comfortable working with gas lines, electrical wiring, and pressurized water systems, and you know how to diagnose what’s actually wrong, you can attempt some repairs yourself. Most people aren’t, and that’s not a knock—it’s just the reality of working on water heaters.
A misdiagnosed problem means you buy the wrong part, spend time installing it, and still don’t have hot water. A mistake with a gas connection can create a serious safety hazard. An electrical error can damage the unit or create a shock risk. And if you cause damage while trying to fix it, that can turn a $200 repair into a $1,500 replacement.
We’ve been called out to fix DIY attempts more times than we can count. Sometimes it works out and saves money. More often, it doesn’t. If you’re not sure what’s wrong or you’ve never worked on a water heater before, calling a licensed plumber is the faster, safer move. We’ll diagnose it correctly the first time and have it fixed the same day.
Simple repairs—like replacing a thermostat or heating element—typically run $200 to $400 depending on the part and labor involved. Valve replacements, anode rod replacements, or more complex diagnostics can range from $300 to $600.
If you need a full replacement, tank-style units generally run $1,200 to $2,500 installed, depending on size and brand. Tankless water heaters cost more upfront—usually $2,500 to $4,500 installed—but they last longer and can cut your energy costs significantly over time.
We give you the price before we start the work. No hidden fees, no surprise charges when we’re done. If we find something else while we’re in there, we’ll tell you what it is, what it costs to fix, and let you decide. You’re not locked into anything until you approve it. That’s how it should work.
Yes. Most of our calls in June Park are handled same-day. If you call in the morning, we’re typically there that afternoon. If it’s an emergency—like a water heater leaking and flooding your garage—we prioritize it and get there as fast as we can.
We don’t charge extra for evenings or weekends. Our pricing is the same whether you call at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday or 8 p.m. on a Saturday. A lot of companies will hit you with an emergency surcharge or after-hours fee. We don’t do that.
We’re available seven days a week because water heaters don’t fail on a convenient schedule. When yours goes out, you need it fixed now—not three days from now. That’s how we’ve run since 2007, and it’s why people in Brevard County keep calling us when something goes wrong.
