The story
What the customer called about
A leaking water heater in the crawlspace.
What we found
The old water heater was badly deteriorated and leaking. It couldn't be saved.
What we couldn't know until we opened it up
The vapor barrier had been torn, and the water heater wasn't sitting on level ground.
The options we gave them
The old tank wasn't salvageable, so we quoted a replacement.
What they chose, and why
The new water heater.
Before, during and after
Photos from the job itself
The water heater in this Angier crawlspace was badly corroded and leaking. We replaced it with a new tank and expansion tank, leveled the ground under it with gravel, and repaired the torn vapor barrier.



The work
- Removed the old water heater, which meant taking out the crawlspace door frame to get it through
- Installed a new water heater and a new expansion tank
- Added gravel to give the heater a stable, level base
- Repaired the torn vapor barrier and cleaned up the area
