"We recently hired Ross with Plumber Near Me, LLC to install a gas line for our future outdoor kitchen. They ran the line from under our house, through the crawlspace, and out to our back deck. We were extremely impressed with their professionalism, knowledge, and efficiency. From the initial consultation to the final installation, Plumber Near Me, LLC was communicative and transparent about the process and pricing. They took the time to answer all our questions, address any concerns, and explain each step of the installation. Ross and his team arrived on time, fully equipped, and worked diligently to complete the project in a timely manner. They were meticulous in their work, ensuring the gas line was properly installed, tested, and up to code. They also took great care to minimize disruption to our property and cleaned up thoroughly after themselves. We are thrilled with the results and would highly recommend Ross with Plumber Near Me LLC to anyone in need of plumbing services. They are reliable, trustworthy, and deliver high-quality workmanship. We can't wait to enjoy our new outdoor kitchen, thanks to their expertise."

"Intrepid did an incredible job in a time that we really had an emergency. They had our water heater diagnosed and replaced luckily within 24 hours. On top of the urgency that we needed a replacement, the price was really fair. Robert did a great job and was very friendly and professional while working at my house. They left no mess and removed the old water heater. 10/10 would use again"

"They started in mid-October and promised to be finished 12/15. They sort of finished 1/28. They promised me that all three of them would work on my projects simultaneously and that they would get everything done quickly. Instead, there was usually just one guy working on things. The shower pan that was installed in my walk-in shower was done incorrectly so it leaked for about a month before I caught it. They did come back to fix it. The measurement of my kitchen was so off that I had to send back two cabinets and purchase another cabinet to make things right. They screwed up the shower door installation in my main bath so badly that it was unusable. That was in January. They eventually came back in April to fix the messed up tile in that shower and said they'd be back in a couple of weeks to finish things up. They didn't offer to come back until last week. By that time, I had already had all the little things and the new shower door done."

You'll need an expansion tank if your home has a closed water system, which is standard in newer homes or those with backflow preventers or pressure regulators. Expanding hot water has nowhere to go in closed systems, creating potentially damaging pressure. The expansion tank provides space for this expanded water, protecting your plumbing system and water heater from premature failure. Many local building codes now require expansion tanks, and some water heater warranties may be voided without one.
For a standard 50-gallon water heater, a two-gallon expansion tank is sufficient. This sizing assumes normal household water pressure between 40 and 60 psi. If your home has higher water pressure (60 to 80 psi), consider upgrading to a slightly larger tank for added protection. The expansion tank's purpose is to accommodate the increased volume that occurs when cold water heats up, which is proportional to your water heater's capacity.
Watch for signs like dripping water around the tank, fluctuating water pressure throughout your home, or unusual noises in your plumbing system. A properly functioning expansion tank should feel light when tapped on the bottom—if it feels heavy or waterlogged, the internal bladder has likely failed. Other indicators include frequent triggering of your temperature and pressure relief valve, visible corrosion on the tank, or unexplained increases in your water bill, suggesting hidden leaks.
Most expansion tanks have a service life of five to 10 years, though some may last up to 12 years or more with proper maintenance. Factors affecting lifespan include water quality, system pressure, installation quality, and tank construction. Hard water areas often see shorter lifespans due to mineral buildup. Regular maintenance checks can help identify potential issues before complete failure. When your water heater is due for replacement, it's wise to replace the expansion tank simultaneously, even if it hasn't failed yet.
A 30-gallon water heater needs an expansion tank if your home has a closed plumbing system. The need for an expansion tank is determined by your plumbing system type rather than water heater size. Even smaller water heaters create thermal expansion when heating water. If your home has a backflow preventer, pressure regulator, or check valve on the main water line, you have a closed system that requires an expansion tank. Check your local plumbing codes, as many jurisdictions now mandate expansion tanks regardless of water heater size.
