Your water heater takes a lot of wear and tear over the years. Realistically, you can expect it to last on average for 8-12 years. During your time as a homeowner, you may need to replace your water heater a time or two. As it ages, you may find that you need emergency plumbing repair services. Lack of or sporadic hot water, lukewarm water, leaks, or even lack of pressure can all be common signs of immediate water heater repair services. Some common culprits to your cold showers may be:

• Sediment Build Up in your Tank
• Faulty Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve
• Heating Elements Malfunctioning
• Problems with the Thermostat
• Thermocouple Needs Attentions
• Damaged Dip Tube

Guardian's expert plumbers are trained to service gas and electric water heaters of all makes and models. We have access to a full parts inventory for necessary water heater repairs, making your service time short and efficient.

Short answer ..Yes! Your Guardian plumbing expert will perform a site visit to establish the correct spacing, power source, and review the scope of work providing you a guaranteed estimate.

There is a saying "If your water heater is 8, don't wait!" Usually around this time, water heaters start showing signs of age, leaks, rust, and reduced hot water. While your water heater can easily last 8-12 years, around the 8 year mark is when it is strongly suggested that you take notice of your water heater routinely. A leaking water heater can wreak havoc in your home and cause damage and even bacterial growth. If you notice any of the following, it may be time to start preparing for a new water heater:

• Rust on the tank
• Water stains or active drips
• Discolored Water
• No Hot Water
• Lukewarm water
• Strange Sounds

To ensure that your water heater is operating correctly, maintenance is key. We recommend a yearly water heater maintenance to address any potential need for repairs before disaster happens. We do not recommend water heater flushes on an aging water heater that has never been serviced. This can result in dislodging rust from your tank that can cause a leak to spring. Routine maintenance can extend the life of your water heater and assure highest functioning if done at the right time and on a routine basis . Guardian offers flexible scheduling and routine water heater maintenance to keep the hot water flowing without interruption!

Short answer ..they don't clear the drain fully. Commercially produced drain cleaners are not the answer to clearing your drain. They are intended to help dislodge some of the clog to allow water to flow more freely. This creates a short term solution. Whether it be hair, grime, minerals, oil, or any other culprits; often times a blockage still exists. For this reason, you find yourself in the same situation a time later with a clogged sink or bath. Harsh chemicals can erode your plumbing creating a potential for leaks as well. Don't fall into the clogged drain cycle and call Guardian's experts to rescue your drain properly!

Having your drains cleared is the first step to a healthy plumbing system. Whether the service was a result of a complete drain blockage or routine maintenance, once your drains are clear you can take the appropriate steps to keep them running free.

• Run hot water through your pipes weekly to help break up some of the oils and sediment that can be lurking. While this isn't a fix, it can help ease the speed of buildup.
• Install food and hair screens on all drains. This little step can help some of the buildup and extend the life between routine drain maintenance visits.
• Watch what goes down your drains. They are not a garbage can, but a means to dispose of your dirty water alone.

Your plumbing pipes are similar to veins and arteries in the human body. In the same way, when they are clean and clear, the bring and take water and waste throughout your home easily. When you have slow running drains, there is likely a build up of sediment, hair, oil and chemicals that require an expert approach. At Guardian, we provide Marietta, Kennesaw, Woodstock, Smyrna and surrounding homeowners with fast and easy drain unclogging solutions. Some common signs that you need an expert plumber are:

• Slow Moving Drain
• Smell from Drains
• Gurgling or Bubbling Sounds from Drains
• Lack of Water Pressure
• Backed Up Toilet

Specifically, Guardian's expert plumbers are trained to preserve your plumbing pipes and remove clogged drains so they run clear. Routine maintenance can address persistent problems and prevent the unsightly backups. We have access to a full part and tool inventory for even the toughest of clogged drains. Slow drain, No drain, No Problem!

To keep your drains free and clear, make sure to never put the following down your drains or disposal: coffee grounds, grease/oil/fats, eggshells, medication, fibrous vegetables and fruit, rice, pasta, and fruit pits. To assure you don’t get bogged down with a clogged drain, and impact the main sewer line of your home, keep these items in the trash and out of your sink and disposal!
