Water Heater Repair in Lewisville, TX
62% of households in Lewisville heat with electricity. That is the strongest free clue to what kind of water heater is in your basement, and it decides which faults are even possible.
Answer first
Lewisville runs on electricity: 62% of households heat that way, and that single fact rules most of the possible water heater faults in or out. The figure covers house heating rather than the tank. Electric heaters fail at an element or a thermostat, and nothing else is in the running.

What Lewisville runs on
Most households here heat electrically. The parts that fail are the two elements and the thermostats that control them.
| Fuel | Share of households |
|---|---|
| Gas — mains and bottled | 36% |
| Electricity | 62% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | under 1% |
| Everything else | 1% |
Drawn from table B25040 of the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 5-year estimates, 2023 release — 48,350 occupied housing units across Lewisville.
Against Texas as a whole, that is 3 points lower — worth knowing before assuming the state pattern applies here.
That figure is house heating fuel, not water heater fuel. They correlate strongly, because the same gas line generally serves both, but the Census does not publish the second one and we are not going to pretend it does.
Which one do you have
If you are not sure, look at the top of the tank: a flue pipe going up into the ceiling means gas, and no flue at all means electric. Settle that one question and the rest of the conversation is straightforward.
Next comes what it is actually doing. A rumbling tank is sediment; a short supply usually names the failed part; a leak decides itself.
