Yes, your Hot Water Heater, can Corrode, and Burst, and cause Water Damage.

Based on the manufacturer's suggested service life, the life expectancy of a Hot Water Heater is about 8 to 12 years.  That varies with the location and design of the unit, quality of installation, maintenance schedule and water quality.

If your water heater is more than 10 years old, leaks around the base of the tank, and / or works erratically or not at all, then it's probably time for replacement. 

However, before you begin the replacement process, make sure that is not an electrical problem, such as a blown fuse or tripped breaker.

For a Natural Gas water heater, Make sure that the gas is connected Correctly, and the pilot light is lit. The tank may need to be Flushed out, to remove sediment from the tank.

***If you have a Natural Gas Heater, Make sure your home is equipped with carbon monoxide detectors!
