Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from Wildwood homeowners.
Replace your water heater in Wildwood when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
Most Wildwood jurisdictions in SC require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance. Magnet Plumbing handles the permit process for Wildwood water heater replacements as part of our installation service, so you do not need to navigate the permit office on your own.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Magnet repiped our entire house last month. Clean install, finished a day ahead of schedule, and they respected our home the whole time. Worth every penny."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"Magnet Plumbing fixed a leaky kitchen faucet and installed a new toilet in the master bath on the same visit. They were in and out in a few hours and cleaned up everything before they left. Will absolutely use them again."
