Hot Water for Town and Shuswap Lakefront

Hot water tank calls in Salmon Arm come from every corner from the Hillcrest family homes needing same-day replacements, downtown rentals where landlords need fast turnaround, Canoe acreages on well water where tank life is shorter, and Shuswap Lake vacation homes coming out of winter with tanks that didn't survive dormancy. The Shuswap's mineral content in water, both municipal and well, is hard enough that tanks here don't hit their rated lifespan without proactive maintenance.

We stock common sizes locally and serve Salmon Arm as a primary community. Same-day replacements routine if you call early. For tankless, annual flushing and descaling keeps units at full efficiency is mandatory, not optional, in Shuswap water.

  • Same-day tank replacements (gas & electric)
  • Tankless flushing & descaling
  • Tank repairs: elements, thermostats, valves
  • Anode rod replacement
  • Seasonal property hot water commissioning
  • Old tank haul-away & disposal

Shadd and his team are absolutely wonderful and did a great job. I needed a basement sink plumbed and new washer dryer hookups and they were able to get it done in short order, kept everything tidy and were super easy to deal with. They knew my budget and worked with me to stay within it and gave me everything I needed. They are very professional, skilled and their prices are more than reasonable. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY US! 4 weeks ago, our hot water and air conditioning quit working on the same day! I called and spoke with the AMAZING Denise, she had Alex out at our shop within the day and he had everything diagnosed and parts ordered, not long after the first appointment, he had our hot water back in working order and then our A/C was repaired after that! Anytime we have had any issues, they have been very prompt to show up on the same day and Alex fixed it all! Such amazing and friendly services! You all have a forever client with Integra Tire and our team moving forward! Thank You!

Plumbing problems are never fun, but we appreciated how Stevenson Mechanical handled the replacement of our sump pump --from booking the appointment to the on-time arrival of our plumber and his friendly, competent service (which included persevering through some unexpected issues). Thank you for your expertise and excellent service!

Called just before noon, on a Friday, at 1:40 plumber arrived and fixed problem in 15 minutes. Very nice young man. I will be calling back soon for some quotes on other needs. Thank you so much to the receptionist for reaching out to staff and arranging such prompt service. Today had old gas fireplace removed. Yet again outstanding service, owner came to assist very quickly. Answered all my questions. Thanks guys.

This company is great! We needed to have our air conditioning unit disconnected and moved temporarily as we were getting our backyard patio redone. They were able to accommodate our last minute request, they completed the work quickly and got our unit reconnected just in time to beat the heat ! I would highly recommend them!
