"We hired Areti to completely gut and remodel our master bathroom, as well as repair several other aspects of our home (replacing the foyer tile and swapping the closet flooring from carpet to hardwood, installing a new water pump system, resealing skylights, etc). When we initially researched Areti, we learned that it is a young business, but I would encouraged people not to worry about that because they know what they're doing and their work is good. Throughout the process they always emphasized they wanted to make everything exactly the way we wanted it so we would love it--and we do LOVE it! ALL of their employees were VERY friendly and approachable, so I was at ease having them in our home when we weren't there. They were also very prompt at getting back to us with any questions/concerns via phone, text, email, and app. They were always on time when we had an appointment face to face, and we especially appreciate how quickly they came out to fix our water pump when it failed (and this was not part of the original scope of work; but they tackled the extra work without a problem). The quality of their work seems good, however there were a few things that weren't done quite right the first time and that they had to re-do. They do warranty their work, so it didn't cost us more for those hiccups. And Josh and Isaac (who managed our project) seem very thorough in checking the work after its done. Josh also looked over our whole house, basement to roof, and made some suggestions for minor repairs we could do on our own to make our house more functional, safe, and beautiful. We would definitely hire them again for our future home projects. We are very, very pleased with all the work Areti did on our home."

"Bassett was fast to respond to my inquiry on Home Advisor/Angi. They offered to evaluate my old boiler furnace that evening so we didn't have to miss work to be there. I though we may need a new furnace but they were able to make some adjustments to make our upstairs heat work that night (which it hadn't for a while). They made a plan to return in less than 48 hours with the supplies and equipment needed for a permanent fix. They stayed within the price quote and even moved my thermostat as a last minute request."

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.

The amount of time it takes to replace an electric water heater will depend on the skill level of the individual who is replacing it. For example, if you replace it yourself–and you don’t have much experience–you can expect the project to take a full day. 

However, if you have a certified plumber or water heater contractor install your new water heater, it can take as little as 2 to 3 hours.

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 you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.

Most hot water heater manufacturers recommend replacing the anode rod about once every three to five years. Anode rods sacrifice themselves by collecting iron, limestone, and other minerals that would otherwise corrode your hot water heater tank. This abuse wears them out long before your water heater does. Check the rod when you remove it and replace it if more than 50% of the metal has been consumed. Check the rod more frequently if you have hard water or use a water softener.
