Tank water heaters are usually dependable, however they sometimes have issues. Below are some common problems that affect standard tank type gas and electric water heaters.
The most common reason there is no hot water in the water heater is a blown fuse. The first thing you should check is the breaker box.
If the circuit breaker is not a problem then the heating elements or the thermostat on an electric water heater may need replacement. On a gas water heater, the important things to look at are the pilot and the gas control valve.
Rusty hot water can be due to corrosion of the pipes, water tank, or anode rod. If this remains unresolved, corrosion could cause further deterioration and result in a leak in the water tank.

Hot water that is only discolored, but is not rusty could be caused from hard water build up on the heating element or sediment inside the tank.
Hot water that smells like rotten eggs or sulfur is usually caused from bacteria build up inside the water heater.
A water leak from the base of the tank can be due to a few different issues. It could be caused by a temperature and pressure valve, condensation, a leaking gasket, break down of the tank, or draining from the overflow pipe.
Water leaking from above the water heater could be from the hot water outlet or cold water inlet pipes, a damaged temperature and pressure valve, or a loose connection.
There are a few reasons why a pilot will not light or stay lit. The pilot light tube could be clogged, there might be air in the gas line, the gas valve might be malfunctioning, or the thermocouple requires changing.

Hissing could indicate that there is a leak or condensation. Most sounds are nothing serious, but it's still a good idea to have it inspected.
