"Greg came quickly to help us with water in our house, the main meter was off due to a hot water faucet that wouldn't turn off. He was her in 45 mins and was able to fix the problem. I was able to shower in the morning and have water for the house with three adults and three children. It was a total relief and so appreciated. Greg was so nice and helpful, he also fixed a leaking outside faucet that was causing me stress. I would refer him to anyone needing plumbing. Thank you again Greg."

"I normally do not give such high ratings but this gentleman proved his worth. Late last night, not knowing whom to call, I used Homeadvisor. Craig, the company owner, called within a short period of time and made arrangements to call the next day. He called, made an appointment, and arrived at the appointed time. Craig had to replace my hot water heater. He performed some tests and gave me some options. I asked that the heater be replaced instead of cobbling the electronics together on an out of warranty tank. I greatly appreciate what he did for me. I will call him the next time I need plumbing help."

"We hired Tidy Plumbing to do our backflow testing. Since I'm newer to the area and we didn't do that where we used to live, we were thankful to find such kind people to help. They did the testing and handled the paperwork that needed to be submitted. We will absolutely have Tidy Plumbing do all our plumbing work."

"Immediately responded to schedule appointment and friendly. Technician was helpful with an estimate and quickly replaced the faulty expansion tank. However, the amount of communication by phone and text from the dispatch was on the verge of nagging and the tech cancelled the appointment the morning of. Got rescheduled and it worked out though."

"Shopped around and Severson was a recommended by several contacts including the resort where we have our rental (a testament in and of itself). Great experience from initial contact with Amanda to fixing plumbing issue with Anthony. Working with them from out of town they provided photos of drainage issue! Will definitely use them again."

"Far to expensive for roughly 2 hours of labor and parts. Was charged $1,075 to hook up an external, above ground 3,000 gallon potable water tank now plumbed into the pumphouse with a shallow well pump. Guess I have spent my life in the wrong business. Feel like I got scalped financially. Nice young men but the sticker shock has left a bad taste in my mouth."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Unless you have previous plumbing experience or extensive experience with water heaters, you should avoid replacing your electric water heater yourself. This process involves disconnecting wiring and parts from the old water heater and reinstalling them onto the new one, among other difficult tasks. This job is best left to the pros to make sure that everything is connected correctly to avoid serious leaks or malfunctions.

Replacing facilitates energy savings, decreases repair frequency, and aligns with modern safety regulations, maximizing safety.

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.
