"Matthew installed an RO water system in our house for us. He also installed a rain shower in our master bathroom. He has been the only person I've trusted with all of my plumbing needs. He's incredibly professional, and efficient. It is clear he is the best in his field, and I would highly recommend him for all of your future plumbing needs! Thank you for everything Matthew!"

"We were recommended White-Lavender plumbing by a friend who used them for a home project. It was a basic job in that we needed a water heater replacement. They were very easy to work with. Melanie was our point of contact with scheduling the appointment and any questions we had. On the day of appointment, they arrived on schedule and proceeded to change out our old water heater. They were very professional, efficient, respectful of our home, and cleaned up after themselves (which I have had issues with regarding other contractor projects). The replacement took about 2 hours from start to finish and we have had hot water without issue since. I would recommend White-Lavender Plumbing to anyone who is looking for a professional, locally based company in the Ann Arbor area to help on repair or replacement plumbing projects."

"There were several problems with the space pack AC unit AC Engineers installed in 2016. AC engineers really stands behind their work. Their technicians are excellent. It took several visits to restore my system but AC Engineers did the job right. I live in a 100 year old house and repairs to my boiler and AC and other systems are a fact of life. AC engineers is a pleasure to work with and I have no reservations to recommend them to a friend."

"They let me know what to expect such as the brand of water heater to be installed, where he purchased it and how to maintain it so that it lasts longer. I also like to work directly with the plumber who is local than with a big company and subcontractors."

"The appointment went okay. Checked option "no" for "Would you hire again?" only because the company is based in Jackson and in an emergency not the most practical choice and if it was not for the Angie's List promo we most likely would not have heard about this company."

"The drain in my basement overflowed for the second time in a couple weeks on a Friday afternoon. The person who had worked on it before had already come twice in two days because the first time he couldn't find a drain pipe that would make it easier to get the snake down. He suggested we might want to tear up the carpet in our family room to find it (like that was going to happen). He came back the second day and snaked through the drain in the laundry room. He did get through the blockage but must have only made a small hole through it because the water was backed up again in less than a week. Again, water and gunk are all over my laundry room. My emergency call was met with a promise that he would get to me sometime on Monday. Monday! Seriously, I couldn't wait three days without water, and I certainly couldn't let the gunk continue to cover my laundry room for the weekend. So, I called around to get someone who was available Friday afternoon. I called another local company, but they weren't able to come out and directed me to Associated Plumbing who had someone at my house within a couple hours. The man inspected the crawlspace that had been flooded during the previous week's catastrophe, and in just a couple minutes, he was able to find the elusive pipe and got down to work. After a few wacks, he decided the pipe was too old and he didn't want to put too much pressure on it and break the pipe, so through the drain he went. The guy was at my house for a good hour or so. He pulled out some gunk and a few roots, and I was back in business. The price was lower than the other guy, and the service and work were far superior. He even gave me a couple suggestions about the pipe and told me to call back if there was a problem. All in all, I am very satisfied and will call Associated Plumbing the next time I am in need of a plumber."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

We recommend you turn off the unit, the power, and the water supply as soon as you notice a leak. Your water heater tank should have a dedicated shut-off valve located on the cold inlet pipes. If the valve is broken or inoperable, use the shut-off valve to your home's main water supply to stop the flow to the entire house.

Avoid touching valves or pipes directly without confirming if they are hot. Wear gloves and other safety gear to keep from coming into contact with hot levers or components when turning off your leaking water heater.

A leaking water heater could potentially last for a few weeks or months before you need to repair it. However, it's not advisable to wait too long. Once your water heater starts leaking, it's likely that the underlying cause of the leak is getting worse as time goes on. Without immediate repair, your water heater could fail. Instead of using a leaky water heater, you should turn it off and call a pro to fix it.

The lifespan of a water heater depends on its type, usage, and maintenance schedule. Traditional tank-style water heaters typically last between 8 and 12 years, though the range can be as wide as 6 to 15 years. Within this category, gas models often last 8-12 years, while electric models may last 10-15 years. In contrast, tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan, often lasting up to 20 years or more. Factors like heavy usage, hard water, and sediment buildup can shorten a unit's life. To extend its lifespan, it is crucial to perform regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank annually and scheduling professional inspections. If your unit is over a decade old and shows signs of rust, leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent heating, it is likely time for a replacement.

While heat pump water heaters are more expensive than gas-powered water heaters, the ROI is higher for heat pump units. Not only are heat pump water heaters more energy efficient, meaning immediate savings on your energy bill, but they also last longer than traditional gas versions, meaning you won't have to buy them as often.

It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.
