"I was very fortunate to find E Mays Plumbing. I had a terrible water heater and Eric was the only plumber that gave me a easy to find list of materials at home depot along staying in communication with me leading up to the project. When the job was finished my new installed water heater worked perfectly and there was no mess to clean. Eric also pointed out a issue I had with my washer water outlet box which was leaking and beginning to deteriorate which is likely to save me money down the road."

"The walls were down to the studs so the plumbers could access the pipes to convert them from a tub/shower set-up to a shower only set-up. This included installing a new valve for the shower. They did this part of the job on June 18. It took an afternoon and the job was complete when they left the premises that day. We paid them by check, $475. Once the shower pan, drain, and shower walls were installed the plumbers returned on August 14 to connect the drain and install the outside wall shower fixture and faucet. It took 3/4's of the day because they ran into an unforseen problem with our shut-off valve to the house. It failed to work properly and they ended up having to replace it. That was an additional cost which we agreed to pay ($300). The end of the day came, and the plumber took me into the shower stall to explain that the large rain-style showerhead is dripping, but those type of fixtures do that for a bit after the shower is turned off. We paid them $525 for the fixture and faucet install. Over the next 90 minutes I checked on the dripping fixture, and it had not stopped. It was more than a small drip. It was dripping a lot. I reached out to the plumber and he said the problem was likely the fixture needed replacing. The fixture was brand new out of the box. I did some research on YouTube about dripping shower fixtures and found that it is likely an issue with the valve. It could be damaged, faulty, or dirty. When I told the plumber this he disagreed. The next week he sent one of his guys back to look it it, and he said the same thing: The fixture needs replacing. You need to send it back and get a different type of unit. After this I went online again and found another opinion that it is the valve. So I sent the plumber a video of the unit dripping from the connection where I removed the hose shower head. When he saw this he agreed that it was the valve. However, he did not offer his service to come back to check the valve and provided a solution. This lead me to contact another plumber and this plumber concurred that it was a valve issue, the valve cartridge. He sent his guy over on August 25th, and he removed the cartridge and ordered a replacement one, and is going to come back on August 28th to install it for us. This is estimated to cost us $650, $400 labor and $200 for the cartridge. My gripe with the plumber I hired from Angie is that he left us with a drippy shower and did not care enough to come back and correct it. He made excuses that he was so busy and working out of the area. We did not pay a professional to leave us with a drippy shower unit. It is our opinion that the job was not completed satisfactorily. We kept having to turn our water to the house on and off because the dripping never stopped. The shower unit was turned off and it just kept dripping. The total we paid this company was $1300. $475 for the converted piping, $300 for the new house shut-off valve and $525 for the fixture installation. In addition, I asked the plumber multiple times to provide a receipt for the jobs they did, and have received no paperwork from them. This is most unprofessional. There should be a document with the charges and what they were for, and confirmation of payment."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to install or replace a water heater depends on the type of heater and the complexity of the job. A professional can typically replace a standard tank-style water heater in one to three hours. However, if the work area is tight, such as a small closet or crawl space, the job could take four to five hours. Replacing an existing tankless unit takes about two to three hours, while upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater is more complex and can take four to six hours. The project will take longer if you are switching fuel sources, such as installing a gas heater which can add about an hour to the timeline, or if the unit needs to be relocated.

Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater’s exhaust vent is best. Also, it is safe to use a flexible vent duct as the exhaust fan. If installing the exhaust fan yourself, make sure you are using heat-resistant silicon to connect the exhaust vent and the duct on your water heater.

While a water heater explosion is rare, it is a serious danger. Be aware of these critical warning signs:

  • Sulfur or Rotten Egg Smell: This is a major red flag, especially for gas water heaters. It can indicate a gas leak, which could ignite and cause an explosion.

  • Leaking Pressure Valve: If the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is leaking, it may not be able to properly regulate internal pressure, creating a risk of bursting.

  • Shaking or Rumbling: Loud rumbling or shaking from the tank can be a sign of extreme pressure buildup.

  • Excessive Heat: If the exterior of the water heater feels unusually hot to the touch, the unit may be overheating dangerously.

  • Rust-Colored Water: This can be a symptom of severe internal corrosion that compromises the tank's integrity.

If you notice any of these signs, especially a gas smell, you must act immediately. Shut off the gas supply to the water heater and call a professional plumber right away to prevent a potential disaster.

When installing a new furnace, it's a good time to consider other projects that can enhance your home's energy efficiency. A great first step is to get a home energy audit, which will identify areas for improvement. Common recommendations include sealing or replacing windows and adding insulation to the attic. These upgrades can help you save money on monthly utility costs. You might also consider installing a smart thermostat to make heating your home more convenient and efficient.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.
