"Just moved into house and discovered a few issues with plumbing so purchased the special deal.  They emailed me within the hour of buying deal to set up appointment.  Luckily there was a cancelation so appointment was set up first thing next morning.  Called before arrival and arrived right on time.  Trouble shot the issue with my kitchen sink which turned out to be odor from lubricant and was very helpful providing me information about my water filter.  Fixed the problem with the toilet and inspected the other components of toilet and let me know condition.  Very professional, very helpful and informative.  Would definitely recommend and hire again.  Thanks!

"After clearing the sewer line blockage, David tried to convince me the line had to be dug up and replaced.  When I told him that was done in 2011 (he did not work on that job) he backtracked and told me he needed to scope the line and dig up the yard to determine the problem. I told him I didn't think there was a problem with the sewer line, but do have a problem with the low pressure in the water lines, and I requested an estimate to replace them. He replied he had to consult with his manager and they would get back to me. Eventually the manager called me to review the work I requested, but the job description bore no resemblance to what I discussed with David. I gave her the correct information , and she told me she would "get back with me" for an estimate. This type of conversation went back and forth 2 more times and I never did get any firm answers regarding the job. I finally gave up trying to communicate with these people, but also questioned their ethics because of trying to redo the sewer line. I don't trust them any more."

"I had started a landscaping project in my front yard to remove rocks from my flower beds provided by the previous owner and needed my utilities marked. The sewer line in the yard is apparently considered a "private line" so I needed to find a private business to find and mark it. My family always has used Cape Fear Rooter for plumbing stuff, and I wasn't sure if they did that type of thing or not. I called them on 3/21, and they said yes! They asked me when I needed it by. I asked them to come on 3/22 if possible. They said ok and provided me with a 45 minute phone call in advance of arrival since I work from home. Upon arrival, they quickly got to work. They spray painted with a water soluble paint dashes of where my sewer line was in my entire front yard. They were very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I felt comfortable enough with them to just leave the check on the front porch table in advance after greeting them so I could continue working inside. When I went outside to check where the line was, I saw they had left the receipt in the place of the check. The owners and employee were very professional, friendly, and efficient."

"David was very helpful. He came and looked at what I needed done and he told me where to hook into the main water system which was readily accessible and told me what I needed to complete the job. I have done some pluming tasks so this was a project I felt very comfortable in doing myself. He saved me a lot of $$$. I will be using his service in the future. Thank you David for your assistance."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Newer models are packed with newer technologies that decrease energy consumption and increase output, giving you more bang for your buck in more bills than one. 

If you’re trying to decide whether you want to repair or replace your new heater, consider factors like your utility bills, repair costs, and even your carbon footprint to help you decide whether it makes sense to buy a new one instead.

If your system is not vented properly, you could experience what’s called backdrafting. Backdrafting is when your ventilation system isn’t working as it should, and instead of releasing gases outside, they get trapped inside your home. 

Gas and propane water heaters create a few types of combustion gases, but the most dangerous is carbon monoxide. If there’s too much build-up of these gases inside your home, it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

You don’t have to replace expansion tanks at the same time as your hot water heater. You may be able to go six to 12 years or more before needing to replace your expansion tank. At $150 to $450, hot water heater expansion tanks are usually much more affordable than the cost of hot water tanks themselves, which average about $1,190.

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.

While a water heater explosion is rare, it is a serious danger. Be aware of these critical warning signs:

  • Sulfur or Rotten Egg Smell: This is a major red flag, especially for gas water heaters. It can indicate a gas leak, which could ignite and cause an explosion.

  • Leaking Pressure Valve: If the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is leaking, it may not be able to properly regulate internal pressure, creating a risk of bursting.

  • Shaking or Rumbling: Loud rumbling or shaking from the tank can be a sign of extreme pressure buildup.

  • Excessive Heat: If the exterior of the water heater feels unusually hot to the touch, the unit may be overheating dangerously.

  • Rust-Colored Water: This can be a symptom of severe internal corrosion that compromises the tank's integrity.

If you notice any of these signs, especially a gas smell, you must act immediately. Shut off the gas supply to the water heater and call a professional plumber right away to prevent a potential disaster.
