"From the greeting when I first called until the completion of the project, every person I interacted with at Top Notch was profesional and friendly. Doug came out to my home to show the different models and upgrades. He did such a great job, I signed a contract right then and canceled the additional appointments I had with other companies to come out. Mindy in the office worked on the permits and constantly kept me up to date. She had problems getting information from my Condominium office, but she worked through it working directly with the county permitting office to get the needed information.

Welcome to American Leak Detection, the "Original Leak Specialists." Since 1974, we have detected nearly 5 million leaks, saving homes and business owners billions of dollars in costly repairs. Accurate leak detection requires a combination of two things: Specially trained experts: Our technicians have completed the industry's most extensive training program and are highly skilled to accurately locate the most difficult leaks, without destruction. Quality equipment: American Leak Detection has taken its job a step further by implementing its own proprietary methods and technology to ensure the most non-invasive leak detection possible. Five reason you can depend on American Leak Detection: Non-Invasive: Our slogan says it best "Leak Detection Without Destruction." We are the world leader in the accurate, non-destructive detection of all types of leaks including hidden water and sewer leaks. Experience and Resources: We're the Original Leak Specialists with more than 40 years of experience, state-of-the-art equipment, and ongoing research and development for new leak detection technology and techniques. Save Money: Our non-invasive methods assure a timely and economical outcome and ensure that damage to property is eliminated or reduced. Upfront Pricing: We find our customers prefer an accurate price based on us accurately inspecting the situation and making recommendations. Many service companies quote low prices over the phone because they know people may be shopping for the lowest price. Therefore, many phone quotes are inaccurate and change after a technician sees the job. We feel this method is Not Fair to customers. After speaking with our office, you will know up-front what your cost will be to detect the leak. Licensed-Insured: Have peace of mind knowing that we have been thoroughly checked and are licensed and insured.

"I called to set up a time for American Leak Detection to come out and they were able to come out the next day. I was told 11-1, which I assumed that J.D. would be here sometime in that range. When he realized at 10:15 he wasn't going to be at my house until 11:45 he called to let me know his estimated arrival time and apologized. There was no need to apologize but I appreciated that he was considerate of my time. He was here for three house and worked tirelessly to locate our leak. He kept me posted and answered all of my questions. My husband came home for lunch and walked through any questions my husband had. D.J. was very professional with a focus on customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to use American Leak Detection. This is the right call if you need someone to locate a leak."

"We were very pleased with the services provided by Gilbert Design Build. We wanted to renovate the kitchen and to place an accent wall with electric fireplace and TV in the living room. The project begins with meeting the president and the designer to discuss ideas and samples see if we're all a good fit. The designer and president then visit the house to see the exact spaces to be built or renovated. The project manager then completes measurements and designer orders materials. When all materials are on hand the site manager schedules the professionals in tile, plumbing, electrical, and framing to their dates Each was pleasant, worked with cleanliness, and delivered a great product. Only two glitches occurred in the process: 1. The distance between the TV and the fireplace heater was not sufficient. This took more tiling but was corrected. 2. The pots and pans rack was very noisy. This was corrected with drawers. Overall a very professional job by Gilbert Design and Build."

"I just had my kitchen completely remodeled by Next Level, and I am beyond impressed! The whole project took only ten days start to finish, which is incredible considering the quality of the work. The new open-concept design, quartz countertops, and cabinets look amazing, exactly what I wanted and more. Tim and his crew were fantastic. They showed up on time every day, paid close attention to the little details, and left the place spotless when they were done. I was actually out of town for most of the remodel, but Tim kept me in the loop with video calls, so I could see the progress every step of the way. Now that I’m home and seeing it in person, it’s even more beautiful than I imagined. I’m already planning to have Next Level do my bathroom remodels next because I’m convinced they’re the best around. Highly recommend!"

Our customers continue to refer Smith Remodeling because they consistently provide excellent customer service and quality craftsmanship at reasonable rates. Estimates for work are always free of cost, and potential customers will always work with Mark or Lisa directly. Smith Remodeling is licensed and insured for interior renovations including: tile installation, cabinetry installation, carpentry, painting, drywall repairs and installation, door installation, flooring, general repairs. When other services such as plumbing and electrical are required, the proper licensed contractors will perform those services and pull the necessary permits.

"This was our second project with Smith Remodeling (see review of 3/22/20) – this time a complete kitchen and bath renovation. Once again, we got superior workmanship, quality materials and great communication at a fair price. We were away for the summer, but we knew from our first experience we could invite Lisa, Mark and their crew into our home with confidence. Smith uses only its own crew, no subs, and has a great network of suppliers for cabinets, tile, countertops, fixtures, shower enclosures and whatever else you need. Lisa coordinates and schedules them all. Once work began, Lisa was in steady communication via text, email or phone. She sent photos almost every day. If she had a question, she consulted us before proceeding. If we had questions, she answered them promptly. The job was done in less than a month. The results were beautiful. This small company is in high demand with good reason."

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.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, tankless water heaters are anywhere from 8% to 34% more efficient than regular water heaters. Exactly how much energy you’ll save depends on your household’s water usage. When you purchase a tankless water heater, you’ll also likely upgrade to more efficient technology than your current water heater, which can add to energy savings.

One of the primary benefits of a heat pump water heater is how cost-effective it is. How much you save will depend on your water usage and electricity costs. That being said, we can ballpark savings for the average home of between $100 and $500 per year. You can increase that savings rate by researching and applying available energy incentives available in your area. If you really want to focus on cost, consider a tankless water heater.

Not all homes are required by code to have water heater expansion tanks, though some cities, like Los Angeles, do. Sometimes, municipalities will require a code that asks homeowners to install an expansion tank if their water heater is on a closed system. A closed system setup without an expansion tank can place unnecessary stress on appliances and shorten their lifespan.

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.
