Water Heater Services in Abbotsford & Fraser Valley
Hot water problems can’t wait. Straight Up Mechanical delivers dependable water heater repair and installation across Abbotsford and Fraser Valley, with honest guidance on whether fixing or replacing your system makes the most sense.
Initial assessment
We start by evaluating your existing water heater, including its age, type (gas or electric), performance issues, and whether it’s still under warranty.
This helps us determine if a repair is realistic or if replacement should be considered.
Site Preparation
Before any work begins, we prepare the area around the water heater to ensure safe access and protect your home.
This includes clearing the workspace, setting up proper shut-offs, and confirming venting and electrical or gas connections are ready for service.
Proper sizing and system selection
When replacement is needed, we help select the correct water heater installation option based on household usage, recovery time, and existing connections. Most installs are like-for-like, keeping the process efficient and cost-effective.
Safe, code-compliant installation
We remove the old unit and complete the installation safely, ensuring all connections, venting, and controls meet current code requirements.
The system is tested thoroughly before we consider the job complete.

Plumbing Conditions Unique to Abbotsford
Abbotsford’s mix of farmland, newer subdivisions, and older neighbourhoods creates varied drainage challenges. Rural homes on acreage often experience root intrusion and collapsed lines, while homes in Sumas Prairie deal with extremely high groundwater levels causing persistent drain issues. Newer neighbourhoods such as Townline Hill tend to have modern piping but still suffer from grease buildup in kitchen lines. Soil movement in hillside areas can also create low spots in drains.
