"I can't thank the guys enough for coming to the rescue. I started a toilet repair that should have been fairly easy, however….. So after realizing the job was too big for me I turned to Angi's list and they connected me to Garner Plumbing. They showed up that afternoon and had the job fixed within a half an hour or just a little more. I feel very confident in the work they did and they were very nice to work with. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing plumbing service and the Jefferson, Athens, Winder area ."

I’ve been a plumber for about 9 years and I love what I do! My company is all about the American way, providing the best goods and services at the best prices possible. We appreciate your business:)

"This company exceeds my expectations. Austin is knowledgeable and strives to meet all your needs. I hired him to replace a hot water heater, but he ended up finishing other plumbing projects that my renovation contractor failed out. Justin also came to assist and was great. This is my forever go to Plumbing Company."

"I am leaving a review before the work is even started. I received a quote from another company and scheduled the work. When they showed up, they tried to triple the cost. I told them to get out of my house. I then called Rooter Pro Plumbing to come out and give me a quote. Jerimey Jackson came out and looked over the situation and then put me on a conference call with the owner. They agreed to match the quote I received from the other company even though it was seriously underbid. They are a great company to work with. They are scheduled to come out this week to start the project. I would highly recommend a company with such integrity in the employees and the owner. I look forward to working with them."

At Casteel Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electrical, we provide world-class service to our customers, just as we have since 1987. Founded by Jan and Bob Casteel, our company was built on honesty and customer-focused care. To this day, we offer our Amazing Care Guarantee: We’ll take amazing care of you or we’ll refund your service call fee. Our expert team of plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and system design managers performs top-quality repairs and installations while ensuring you are completely satisfied with your entire customer service. Because we offer so many services under one roof, you’ll save time and money by making one phone call to Casteel. Formerly: Knight Air Conditioning and Heating Company

"The heating was fixed but I am very unhappy about the pricing and lack of transparency. The service technician tried to upsell me a $200 safety valve that I “absolutely needed” (but online said should be able to be installed for less than $50 and was just another added feature to shut off the AC if the drain was clogged). The technician said he would not charge me for the repair on my dampener but I got a $40 charge anyways after refusing to pay for the safety valve, which I said I would buy myself. When I had spoken with Casteel on the phone the night before, they said the $40 charge would be for a second HVAC unit, which ultimately did not get serviced. I never received a detailed explanation of these charges and instead said this was a “miscellaneous fee” for repairs. They got the job done but I do not think I would hire again solely because I felt like I was being taken advantage of for most of the visit. I could not get the $40 charge removed after calling Casteel and explaining the situation. So it was a $129 service call with no parts replaced more expensive than other providers."

FAQs for water heater installation and replacement projects in Winder, GA

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.
