"Fausto Construction is the best I’ve ever worked with! I’ve dealt with contractors who met deadlines but delivered mediocre work, and others who were meticulous but took forever to finish. Fausto struck the perfect balance—paying attention to every detail, producing high-quality work, and completing everything on time. Since I don’t live near my condo, I needed someone I could trust completely, and Fausto did not disappoint. He provided regular progress updates with photos, and the communication was excellent. Thanks to Fausto, my condo now has stunning new floors, a high-end shower, and beautiful finishing touches that make it feel brand new while preserving its beachy charm. He listened to my ideas, made thoughtful suggestions without any hard upsell, and truly cared about the final result. I’m beyond happy with his work and will absolutely use Fausto Construction again for my next big home improvement project!"

Welcome to Jack's Plumbing & Heating Inc, proudly servicing Carlsbad and the surrounding areas. Our goal is to complete your project to perfection. We look forward to building long lasting relationships with the customers that we serve. We look forward to serving you. Call us today! You will not be disappointed.

"Found Jack (Fasone) Plumbing & Heating by virtue of a recommendation from 1 of our long-stan flooring contractors & called him to handle some initial work on a new condo. Working with Jack is a breath of fresh air. He discussed 2 minor, and 1 more involved issue in a courteous, professional & relaxed manner, describing the time, effort and cost for the work. We set up a work date that day. Jack followed through on that appointment and handily addressed all three issues in approximately 1 1/2 hours at a very reasonable rate for the work. Jack makes addressing plumbing issues almost a pleasure (hey, it's plumbing after all!), something I haven't been able to claim in many past experiences. My experience with Jack's Plumbing & Heating was obviously positive in that he addressed any questions I had concerning the work. leaving me with only one unanswered question. Where has he been all my adult, home-owning life? Consider Jack Fasone for your next plumbing issue. Bill Oceanside"

Flow Right has been dedicated to this craft for over 10 years. We pride the company on reliability, excellent communication, integrity, and quality work. We strongly believe in giving our absolute best in all our projects no matter how big or small. We are experts in our trade and will always keep you educated on your task or project. We look forward to earning your business!

"The main pipes needed to be replaced under my mother's home. They had cracked and it was creating a foul smell so we knew this was a plumbing emergency that needed an expert plumbing team to replace these old pipes. Kenny came out for an inspection and estimate 30 minutes after my mom called Flow Right. He provided a clear estimate after inspection and work could begin the next day. The extensive pipe removal and replacement job was completed by 2 plumbers on the job in a 5 hour period and they double checked all the work to ensure the plumbing in the house was working perfectly. I highlight Flow Right's expertise and professionalism here because another well advertised and bigger SD plumbing company not only quoted us near double the cost but projected the work would take multiple days. We are so lucky and grateful to have found Kenny and the Flow Right team to get this massive pipe replacement job done, and done superbly. Thanks again, Flow Right. You guys are the BEST!"

"Dave was great! The best communication and transparency I've seen in a long time. Dave explained what he needed to do to install the dryer vent and got right to work...NO wasted time. He installed the vent and made sure it was working properly. The vent looks great! Dave is knowledgable, professional, and a nice person. He also stayed in touch, letting me know how soon he would arrive and when he was on his way. I really appreciated that. We will definitely call him the next time we need a handyman."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

How long do water heaters last? The average tank-style hot water heater will last 8 to 12 years, while a tankless water heater may last up to 20 years. Large families that use a lot of hot water will put more stress on the unit, potentially shortening its lifespan. Regular maintenance and repairs can lengthen the unit’s lifespan.

A tankless water heater can last up to 20 years, but just how long your tankless water heater lasts depends on how much water you use, how well you maintain your water heater, and the water hardness level in your area. A unit that constantly has mineral buildup from hard water may have a shorter life span.

Gas water heaters last between eight and 12 years on average. You can help them reach their maximum lifespan with regular cleanings, maintenance, and professional checkups, though don’t hesitate to swing for a full replacement if the total cost of repairs is greater than that of purchasing and installing a new unit. 

If your water heater is about to celebrate the big 2-0, you may want to consider sending it off to greener pastures. While the water heater may seem to be working well, any conventional, tanked water heater over 10 years of age is at risk of failure. If your water heater is 20 years or older, your best move is to replace your aging heater before it completely breaks down.
