"The yearly service works out to be $50 a month. We've had two water heaters replaced through them because of a fault in them. They're usually very responsive. I like that I can request the service online. The only thing is, I wish that there was a better avenue for emergency services. If something doesn't work right away usually it takes a couple of days to get someone out and sometimes you can't wait two days without water."

"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

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

Yes, most municipalities have codes that require water heaters to have pans. A pan is necessary when a water heater or hot water storage tank is installed in an area where water leakage could cause damage, such as an attic, second floor, or finished basement. Tankless water heaters are not required to have a pan since there is no storage tank.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

The average water heater holds between 40 and 60 gallons, but the exact amount of water that comes out during draining will depend on your unit’s capacity. The amount of time it takes to drain a water heater averages from 10 to 30 minutes.

The average cost to replace a water heater is around $1,325, with a typical range of $900 to $1,800 for a standard replacement. The final price depends on the type of heater (tank vs. tankless), its size, fuel source (gas or electric), and the complexity of the installation. A simple one-to-one replacement will be on the lower end of the cost spectrum. However, if you are switching from one type of heater or energy source to another, you can expect labor costs to be significantly higher due to the extra work involved. It's also worth considering that while gas and electric heaters may have similar upfront costs, their long-term operating costs can differ based on local utility prices.
