"We pay yearly but we have this is included with our rental property. They are pretty good on most things. We had a hot water heater replaced and they did an excellent job on that. They are very quick on their response. They dont come out here. It is all done on the internet.  I just like the idea that one time service charge is so much better than trying to hiring someone to come in. It is more about convenience. It pays for itself."

"The gutters on my home started sagging last year during a brutal ice storm.  Large icicles formed that pulled them down and away from the roof in places.  Rainwater would pour out of the gutters in these areas, creating a waterfall effect.  I don't know why I put off calling to get them repaired.  
I contacted Mr. Machen, who was very friendly on the phone, approximately two weeks before the work was actually performed.  We made an appointment for a few days later for him to come out and give me an estimate.  There was a problem the day he was supposed to come out and we rescheduled for a few days later.  When he came out, he was again very nice and polite.  He took a look and gave me an estimate for the work which I thought was a great price.  He was back less than a week later to repair and clean the gutters.  He and his helper re-attached the parts of the gutters that were coming loose and then cleaned the gutters.   They made sure there was no debris left anywhere on my property after cleaning them too.  When I took a look at the gutters (from the ground), you couldn't even tell which parts had been sagging.  The work was excellent.  I paid exactly the estimated price.  It's been a week since the work was done and it has rained A LOT since then.  The water drains the way it's supposed to now.  I am very pleased with the job that was done and will definitely call these guys up again for more work.
In fact, while Mr. Machen was here giving me the estimate for the gutter work,  I asked if he would take a look at my bathtub too.  I need to have the faucet replaced and have the entire surrounding area re-grouted and re-caulked.  I think the estimate he gave me for that work was fair and I will be contacting him within the next few weeks to schedule an appointment."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget. 

Pros

  • Safer than gas or propane

  • Doesn’t require extensive venting systems

  • Lower upfront costs

  • Simpler to operate

  • No pilot light

  • Easier installation

  • More efficient heating than gas models

  • Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units

Cons

  • Slower to heat water

  • Longer recovery time

  • Possibly higher operating costs

  • Doesn’t work during a power outage

  • Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection

If you want instant hot water and to reduce water waste while improving convenience, a hot water recirculating system is worth it, especially if you find your hot water heater is not hot enough. These systems can save thousands of gallons of water each year so you don't have to wait for hot water at faucets and showers. The upfront investment can be high, especially for systems requiring additional plumbing, but the long-term savings on water bills and added comfort make them a worthwhile upgrade.

Traditional gas or electric water heaters last an average of six to 11 years. However, with excellent maintenance, they can last up to 15 years. Heat pump water heaters, on the other hand, last an average of between 12 and 15 years and potentially longer with proper maintenance. In both cases, your home's water quality can be a determining factor regarding the lifespan of your water heater.

Gas water heaters last between eight and 12 years on average. You can help them reach their maximum lifespan with regular cleanings, maintenance, and professional checkups, though don’t hesitate to swing for a full replacement if the total cost of repairs is greater than that of purchasing and installing a new unit. 

When replacing an old unit, you might want to switch from a gas water heater to an electric water heater or vice versa. To do this, you will likely need to add infrastructure to the area. For example, you likely don’t have a gas line that served your old electric water heater. You’d have to call a plumber to put in a new gas line. If you’re replacing a gas unit with an electric one, the plumber will need to safely cap the old gas line. You will then need an electrician to add wiring for the new electric unit.
