"Chase helped advise me even with purchasing for my replacement water heater and other parts needed. He came after hours to replace my water heater, and even though he knew he would have to come back the next day to complete repairs, he still made sure I had hot water available until he could finish the job. He and Bryan went the extra mile to make sure everything was right, even building a platform to make the appliance more level. More recognized plumbers in the river valley have worked on my bathroom and not bothered to tell me anything was wrong with the flooring level. Would definitely recommend them and will positively hire them again!"

"The service from Homeadvisor,and the plumber were excellent.The cost of the entire job seemed a little bit expensive to me. However;our old hot water heater was inspected,and removed.A new hot water heater was installed,and is working perfectly. I suppose after looking up prices for a hot water heater online,and then buying one then having it installed by the same plumbing company are two different things.I guess you could call it sticker shock. I will call them again."

"We pay yearly but we have this is included with our rental property. They are pretty good on most things. We had a hot water heater replaced and they did an excellent job on that. They are very quick on their response. They dont come out here. It is all done on the internet.  I just like the idea that one time service charge is so much better than trying to hiring someone to come in. It is more about convenience. It pays for itself."

"Work preformed was good. The guys that did the job did good but didn't have the tools they needed which caused the job to go a lot longer than normal, but not a big deal. The only issue was with the finish and clean up after everything was completed. The contractor did try to send someone over to finish moving appliances back and hook up, but I had already got everything back in place. Ended up having to repair a water line to the dishwasher because it got broken when originally disconnected. Other than than, the finished work was good."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Your water heater's age can affect your homeowners' insurance policy. Many policies will ask how old the heater is when you first apply for a policy—and they may make you replace a model that's over 10 years old. 

Even if your policy permits you to have an older heater, it may significantly reduce the amount of protection available. If an older water heater suddenly leaks and causes damage to parts of your home, your policy may not cover it.

Yes, most municipalities have codes that require water heaters to have pans. A pan is necessary when a water heater or hot water storage tank is installed in an area where water leakage could cause damage, such as an attic, second floor, or finished basement. Tankless water heaters are not required to have a pan since there is no storage tank.

Several signs indicate your water heater may be failing or in need of replacement. Key indicators include:

  • Age: A water heater older than ten years is approaching the end of its typical lifespan.

  • Water Quality: If you notice rusty or discolored water from your hot water faucets, or a foul odor similar to rotten eggs or sulfur, it can signal internal corrosion.

  • Unusual Noises: Banging, rumbling, or popping sounds from the tank often mean sediment has built up, causing the unit to overheat.

  • Leaks: Any water pooling around the base of the tank or visible leaks are clear signs of failure.

  • Performance Issues: A decline in performance, such as water not getting hot enough, taking longer to heat up, low water pressure, or decreased efficiency, suggests the unit is struggling.

  • Visible Damage: Obvious rust and corrosion on the exterior of the tank can indicate a more serious internal problem.

While these signs often point to replacement, some issues may be fixable. It's best to consult a professional plumber to diagnose the problem before investing in a new unit.

Electric water heaters use a high amount of electricity, so they’re best for homeowners who subsidize their electric bill with solar or who live in an area with inexpensive electricity. For others, gas water heaters versus electric water heaters may be the more cost-effective solution, with the added bonus of heating water quickly and efficiently. No matter which you choose, you can lower your water temperature as low as possible to keep costs down.

Choosing between an electric water heater vs. a gas water heater comes down to personal preference. Overall, electric heaters are more energy efficient than their gas competitors. They’re also quieter to operate, take up less room, and don’t come with a risk of gas leaks. 

The downside is that electric water heaters cost more to operate than gas. They might also struggle to heat water fast enough for households that use large amounts of hot water. Lastly, a power outage could cause your electric water heater to stop working, whereas gas water heaters may still function.
