"Elec72I started with using "Richard the Handyman" for a request to replace 2  sets of french door and some other sheet rock work that I had in the
house.  He did an excellent job on the doors and sheet rock repairs. In fact, I used Richard for about 2 to 4 weeks straight to make repairs to a rental house. Between Richard's work and the landscaper, the leasing agent wanted to sell the house due to the fact that it looked too good to be marketed as a rental. Ultimately, It was rented. What I  can say about Richard that his word is good.  He charges you what he says, shows up when he is suppose too, and finishes the job or jobs before moving onto his next client.  I used Richard to do the following  and I thought all of his work was very good and some of it was pure excellent.  He did the following; 1) Replaced 2 sets of french doors. The doors did not fit right that I had ordered.  He worked around the problem and came up with a great solution, 2) replaced a 32" basement door, 3) repaired sheet rock in walls,  4) repaired 3 or 4 spots in stippled ceilings.  Out of the 4, only one was the repair obvious.  You could not see the repair on the other 3.  5) He leveled a tub for me and
repaired all damage to sheet rock and tile. 6) He painted the living room and ceiling.  His paint work is excellent.  7) He repaired appliances for me. 8) He installed a microwave, bathroom fan, security light, repaired a wiring issues, 9) installed 2 toilets and snaked the pipes for me. 10) He replaced a water heater and repaired an outdoor bid hose faucet.  11) he installed a sump pump in my crawlspace to deal with water problem.  12) He repaired carpet, cleaned carpet, and did a touch up job on the house to make it more appealing.  13) He pressure washed the exterior. Overall, Richard did a great job and will do about any job that you have.  He is honest and never deceived or took anything from me and kept his word through the 4 weeks.  When he could find a way to save me money, he did. What else is to be said."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Storage, tankless, heat pumps, and solar water heaters each suit specific space constraints, usage needs, and efficiency preferences.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

Yes, you can replace a current tank water heater with a tankless model or vice versa. If you’re maintaining the same fuel source—gas or electricity—the switchover should be smooth. A conventional tank requires open floor space, while a tankless model can be wall-mounted. If you’re switching to a tank water heater, you might need to clear space for it. Gas-powered tankless water heaters need a large volume of gas when they start running to heat the water instantly. You might need to increase the size of the gas line when going from a tank to a tankless model.

If your water heater continues to have issues, you may wonder how long an electric water heat lasts. On average, these units last between 10 to 15 years. Following a proper maintenance schedule can help the water heater live to the end of its average lifespan or longer.

The size needed for your expansion tank is determined by the size of your home's water heater. Expansion tanks are available in 2-gallon and 4.5-gallon sizes. A 2-gallon tank will be appropriate for water heaters up to 50 gallons. An adequately sized tank should have a volume that equals 2% to 5% of the water volume within the system. A plumber can evaluate your home's water pressure, water heater size, and other factors to provide suggestions for picking out the best expansion tank.
