"Joe and his team did an outstanding job installing our tankless water heater. They are knowledgeable, flexible, conscientious, professional, friendly, timely, and do outstanding work. I would highly recommend Premier Water Heaters for your water heater needs."
"My technician Kyle was very informative and respectful. He explained what was going on and was very professional. Kyle even left me with an electric heater for the evening until they could replace my furnace the next day. Kyle was back early the next morning to start the replacement of my old furnace for the new one and it is working great! I am so happy that I was able to get this done right away."
"Jensen Plumbing is professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and truly cares about their customers! As a new homeowner, I have had plenty of questions, and their entire team has been patient, responsive, and happy to explain things. They even took the time to show me how my new drain tile works and explain how they help prevent water from leaking into my basement. When I had a gas leak, they responded quickly and helped me get a gas shut-off valve installed that my home didn't originally have. They are currently helping me with a leaky shower and guiding me on options that will work with my existing plumbing. Their pricing is reasonable, and they make you feel like family. No question is too silly, and the staff are like talking to family friends. I highly recommend Jensen Plumbing for their expertise, outstanding customer service, and genuine care for their customers!"

"Jeff and his brother Jim have done all the plumbing work in my house. Everything from water heaters to hose bibs. They can do it all. As cliche as it might sound there really is no job to big or small for Jeff and Jim. They are very reasonably priced and do a very through job. They have done plumbing work for my elderly in-laws and my mom as well and they both very pleased the results."
"We had really good results. I would give a glowing referral for them. I called and explained the situation and he and I arranged a time for him to come out and eyeball the situation. He worked several hours and it was pretty major work. He cleaned up when he was finished and explained everything to me. He noticed that my drain was clogged and he took it upon himself to clean it. When I told him what my plumbing problems were, he actually looked at my water softener. I had another plumbing service out that said I needed a whole new water softener and he said that he didn't think I had it programmed correctly. He reprogrammed it and it was absolutely fine. The other company had sent out their water softener specialist and said I needed to replace it. We had a willow tree that snapped a power line and didn't know that it needed to be reprogrammed. He was reliable and did good work. I will probably hire him again for more work. He also went over to another house that my husband and I own and fixed a toilet there very quickly. When he is done with the work, he makes sure that it is really repaired. I felt like I was in good hands and he does quality work."
"They showed up very quickly. After replacing the hot water heater I went down in the basement later that day to inspect the work and found water all over the floor and a leaking braze joint right above the heater with the incoming water line. They came back quickly and repaired the leak but the mess on the floor was all mine to clean up. Not a fun experience at all. "

"Scott is a professional in all aspects of his work and demeanor. Our water broke during the week and we discovered the problem Saturday morning. Scott came in on Sunday ,at no extra charge, and efficiently replaced the older water heater quickly for as low a cost that replacing a water heater can be done."
Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.
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.
When the water expands in a hot water heater, it puts pressure on your hot water pipes and can cause leaks or a rupture in the hot water tank under certain conditions. Pipes or water heaters may split due to the pressure where there is a backflow preventer that prevents the hot water heater from diffusing pressure by releasing water back to the public water line.
In these scenarios, a hot water heater expansion tank provides a place for the hot water heater to relieve pressure and prevent bursts and leaks.
A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill.
Any item that can hold on to moisture and encourage mold growth should be discarded and replaced following water damage. Upholstered items, such as armchairs and couches, and soft items, such as mattresses, usually must be thrown away once they've taken on a lot of water. Soft furniture is difficult to dry out, creating an inviting environment for mold.
You may also need to replace hardwood furniture following water damage if you're unable to fully dry it out. If you have appliances and electronics that have been fully submerged in water, particularly sewage, you'll need to replace those, too.
