When Should You Replace Your Hot Water Tank? Gas vs Electric Explained
The signs your tank is on its way out, and how gas and electric compare when it is time to replace it.
Home Maintenance & Renovation Guides
Practical guides from the KOM USA team in Metro Detroit.
These guides answer the questions homeowners and landlords across Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties ask before calling anyone: when part of the house is due for attention, what a repair or renovation actually involves, and what to decide before work starts. They are written by our team with Michigan homes in mind, where long winters are hard on chimneys, water heaters and older plumbing.
Read one before you book and you will know what to ask. If a guide ends with a job you would rather hand over, many smaller jobs can be booked at a fixed price, and larger projects start with a consultation.
