★★★★★ - "Carson Restoration was incredible to work with from start to finish after our water heater failed. They were on the scene within 2 hours and from there made sure to communicate with us every step of the way. They really helped put our minds at ease in a stressful situation. They also provided us with additional documentation when the insurance company didn’t want to pay our claim, which was a huge help for a young family. I would highly recommend them to anyone that finds themselves in a similar situation—we can’t say enough good things about them."

Why Do Water Heaters Burst?

There are three primary causes of water heaters breaking; build-up of sediment, corrosion in the tank and too much pressure. The latter is the biggest culprit we see when we get a call for a burst hot water heater. Well-functioning water heaters have a relief valve that opens up when pressure begins to build in the system, but tanks wear down over the years and components can become faulty. When this occurs, too much pressure builds in the tank, leading to a burst or explosion. Regular HVAC maintenance should be performed, but if you have an emergency, call the water damage pros at Carson Restoration, Inc. for immediate action.

What to Do if Your Hot Water Heater Breaks

1. Quickly turn off the water supply from the valve located on your water heater to prevent further water damage
2. Use caution - Your system may be hot. Open the pressure relief valve to release any pressure in the system
3. Rinse with cold water to quickly get water temperatures down
4. Call Carson Restoration, Inc. to assess the damage and begin the drying out process
