Own a rental?Between-tenant jobs, same prices as any house.Royal Oak filled in over two pushes, the 1920s bungalows downtown and the 1950s ranches farther out. The tank in the basement of either kind of house was likely put in by a past owner, and a yearly flush takes out the sediment nobody has been tracking.
Arts, Beats & Eats over Labor Day weekend fills Royal Oak with guests, and a house full of visitors finds out fast whether the tank has been flushed. On Loaded the flush lands at the spring visit, months before that crowd arrives.
The schedule.
Once a year. On Loaded it is done at the spring visit. Hot water that runs out sooner than it used to, or a first draw that comes out gritty, means it is overdue.
What the visit looks like.
The heater is turned down first, then a hose goes on the drain valve and the tank drains until the water runs clear. It refills and comes back up to temperature, and the heater's age and condition go in the record.
On a plan, this job is done during one of the four visits. The plans, priced for Royal Oak: Home upkeep in Royal Oak.
