Our happy and satisfied customers recommend us to their friends and family all the time. We are proud of our reputation, and we feel it has been well earned. We are also happy that we can help you feel good knowing that you are working with a reputable company that stands behind its products and services.

"Mr. Gentry was negligent in the installation of the sump pumps by not drilling weep holes for the sump pumps in the PVC pipes per the installation instructions. This caused the sump pumps to malfunction and my basement to flood. Mr. Gentry was out of town when my basement flooded and I called Four Seasons to fix the sump pumps. Four Seasons did so by drilling the weep holes in the PVC pipes. In addition he found a microfiber rag wrapped around the battery pump which must have been dropped by Mr. Gentry during installation. This rag also prohibited the pump from activating. The cost for Four Seasons was $572. My basement was damaged by the flood and we hired Parkside Restoration to remove the damaged carpeting and baseboards. They set up 20 air movers and 2 large dehumidifiers for 4 days. The cost was $4,470. As the water had seeped up the walls, I had to repaint the basement at a cost of $236. I did the painting myself. The new carpet cost is $4,183. Mr. Gentry charge was $3,300 for the sump pumps installation plus some additional plumping work. Contact with Mr. Gentry was made via email on Sept 8, 2024 to which he responded about how much money I was looking for to which I responded that I had not looked @ carpeting yet and would contact him when I had a final amount. My 2nd contact with Mr. Gentry was on October 16, 2024 when he stated that he only warrants his work for 1 year and the flooding occurred 16 months later so he would not assume any responsibility. I told him the pump failure was caused by his negligence to drill weep holes in the PVC pipes per installation instructions. I again contacted Mr. Gentry via text on October 18, 2024 to attempt to settle. He called and stated he would call me on October 21, 2024. We did not hear back from Mr. Gentry again. I would like total reimbursement for the damages to my basement of $9,461 which includes the costs of Four Seasons $572, Parkside Restoration $4,470, paint $236 and carpet $4,183 totaling $9,461."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

Basements, specifically those without any air conditioning, are the best location for a hybrid water heater. These rooms are less likely to experience extreme temperature fluctuations, which can affect your hybrid water heater’s efficiency and performance. Basements often have more than enough space for their tanks and proper air circulation. Hybrid water heaters can also be a bit noisy, but putting them in your basement will keep the noise away from your main living areas.

Water heater replacement costs around $1,300, but a total install will depend on a few factors. Solar heaters can cost upward of $3,700, while conventional gas heaters may cost less than $1,000. Tankless water heaters, common in apartments and homes without much space, cost around $2,600 to install. Expect the cost to increase significantly if new plumbing is required, or if there is damage from a previous water heater malfunctioning. 

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 average lifespan of a water heater is eight to 12 years. If your water heater is approaching its first decade of life and is giving you problems, talk to a plumber about your replacement options.

Keep in mind that certain parts of a water heater, such as the anode rod, may need replacement long before the heater itself. An anode rod often has a lifespan of three to five years.
