I do any home improvements & repairs. I fix things right the 1st time & I make it look good. I have a full time job during the day so the handyman is my evening & weekend job. I guarantee my work. If I have to come back after I tell you it's fixed it's on me I don't charge for time or work.

"My husband signed a contract with Tony Shipman, boss of Precision Mechanical in Sullivan IN. (Terre Haute). We paid him $4,000 and the job is not finished. He promised to give us water lines, and upgraded electrical service, which has never been accomplished. There are also many damages that have been made. There is a hole in my kitchen wall, there are several deep ditches in our lawn, making it unsafe for our daughter to play and causing water build-up perfect for a mosquito breeding pool. They took the electrical prongs from our heater to place on the well pump! They even used my husband’s gas in the shed without permission. They used all the drinking water we had without replacing it several times. They also left trash behind on our lawn. Tony Shipman has said he would do the job multiple times but has not shown, or even notified us of the reasons for not coming as planned. Mr. Shipman is now ignoring calls and text messages as well. This has been ongoing for three months. Our family has been wronged; we are seeking justice. We cannot afford a lawyer and are praying we receive help. I do not want anyone else to be wronged by Tony Shipman and his crew with Precision Mechanical. Please, do not overlook this review. We thought he was a good option because our local news station (WTHI) has a positive report. I anyone and everyone to heed this warning so it doesn't happen again to an innocent family."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

No. Boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different purposes. A water heater will never be able to supply warm water or steam for your central heating system. In most homes, a boiler and a water heater may be combined to provide heating and daily use of hot water. Other homes may opt for a furnace over a boiler for their heating needs.

No. Expansion tanks must be installed on the supply side (where heated water flows out) of the boiler. There’s also a list of other requirements for most boilers, including being above the pressure relief valves, being on the inner side of any circulator, and more. Your installation manual should have more information on expansion tank installation requirements and what sort of tank the system is made for.

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.

Installing a water heater costs about $1,300 on average. The overall price ranges from as low as $880 to as high as $1,800, depending on the type of water heater and any additional plumbing work required to fit the new water heater. Other cost factors for this type of installation include the tank size, tank vs. tankless, fuel type, vent system, permits, location, and labor cost for installation.
