water damage charlotte: What Is A Tankless, Water Heater? - 06/28/21 01:20 AM
What is a tankless water heater?
 
A tankless water heater is just that.  It is a water heater without a holding tank and that heats water on demand, as you need the hot water. It typically has a recirculating pump that keeps the water in constant motion when you need the hot water.   I have had a water heater with a tank and I have a water heater, without the tank.  I prefer the tankless water heater.
Remember that a tankless water heater will typically be much more money than a water heater with a tank.  The water heater with the tank holds … (16 comments)

water damage charlotte: Water damage that lingers, past the clean up - 07/01/12 02:25 AM
        Many people live in homes where water damage has taken place.  As home or property owners, we first think of taking care of the cause of the problem, and then most of us work on cosmetic issues like removing debris or replacing walls or painting.  If you are a do-it-yourself type of person, you probably count yourself lucky if you feel you can do the job yourself.  Whether you do the job yourself or call someone else in to help, however, your primary concern is usually money, especially in these difficult economic times.  If you own commercial or … (0 comments)

water damage charlotte: To Repair or Not to Repair…Your Roof that is! - 05/29/12 12:37 PM
          The weather in our area this year has been quite unpredictable.  We’ve had it all—lightning, serious rain, hail, strong winds, and tornadoes jumping from one community to the next ripping up trees and wreaking havoc on neighborhoods.  The aftermath of all this was to rebuild and repair our damaged property as quickly and efficiently as possible.  One of the most frequent predicaments faced by homeowners was whether to repair or replace roofs that had been battered or torn away.  People were forced to seek help immediately and did not have much time to consider their options.  That’s … (1 comments)
