"I returned from vacation to find toilets not flushing. Contacted Pete Black Plumbing after referral from Lakeside Services. They sent someone within 2 hours. Before any work done, I was given an estimate for $668 for "up to 50' cabling main cleanout." This seemed high based on prices posted on various websites, but I felt I had no choice since it was already Friday mid-afternoon. I have no complaints about the work but, had I known ahead of time what they charge, I would have called a few other places first. Caveat emptor!"

"I was skeptical about using Angi because of a prior experience, but I am glad that I gave them a second chance. I got quotes from several companies, but Howard was so enthusiastic and informative that I opted to go with him and boy I was NOT disappointed!!! My master bathroom was transformed from a 1962 boring en-suite bathroom into a beautiful euro style bathroom. He was ALWAYS available for even the most inane questions and his crew is absolutely FANTASTIC! I was so pleased that we took out a HELOC loan to get the second bathroom done. I figured it would be nice because of what had been done with bedroom-WRONG! They surpassed our expectations. Sam, Marcus, and Larry are PHENOMENAL workmen. I could not believe that the second bathroom was even prettier than the bedroom bath. The recommendations that were given were right on point. I can not express my deepest gratitude for the professionalism, integrity and friendliness of his staff. Howard Emmer and staff are GREAT, you will not be disappointed!!!!"

Water heater installations and replacements FAQs

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.
