IMMERSION HEATER - NO HOT WATER?

Turned on the immersion heater today for a shower, had it on over an hour and no hot water. It normally heats up after 1/2 hour. What's the cost to replace one approx.? Any one recommend a tradesman to fix it?

I had one fitted by someone else and after 8 years it is still working great. Kirk Bracey is a reliable, honest guy in my opinion, and I would trust him to carry out this simple job, no probs!

Back in April, my immersion heater seemed to be not working - called electrician,he informs me that the thermostat is missing and power wires cut - suggests that "perhaps someone else had a problem, so mine was 'commandeered/appropriated' to effect that 'someone else's' repair..."
I had (some while ago) heard that this was a common occurrence with water pumps, resulting in the practice of chaining pumps, but immersion heater thermostats?

p.s. that's certainly an eye opener concerning the missing thermostat, it's a good job that they didn't simply bypass your thermostat, you could have experienced an exploding hot water tank (depending on the state of your expansion valve....)

If not preset immersion heaters should be set at 60c.
