Purpose Driven Restoration & Remodeling will stand by you after the storm and throughout the restoration and remodeling journey.
"Working with PDR has been nothing short of harrowing. For the better part of a year we have had to be our own project manager for our kitchen and living room remodel. Our actual assigned project manager, Cole Vagovich, did 3 site visits for the duration of the project despite several quality issues that came up. The electrical work done in August 2022 was underpowered so in October 2022, they had to return and rewire by cutting into my finished basement ceiling. The repairs have been unfinished going on 6 months. And my lights still flicker. We also had to have the backsplash PDR installed torn out and redone due to several quality issues. Cole Vagovich told me that we were legally obligated to have the tile installer return to try and fix his work. We consulted two attorneys that confirmed this was NOT a law and we are not legally obligated to have the same installer return to fix the tile. In the end, PDR gave us a $3500 credit to have it torn out and reinstalled by another company. It turned out beautifully. However, the demo crew removed the frame around the window so they could tile there, and discovered the inside frame was just resting, unsecured in the opening. This just scratches the surface of the issues we faced with PDR."

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.
