Called Northeast Plumbing once to repair a leak and haven't had any issues since. Plumber was punctual and very knowledgeable. Will call for future plumbing needs!

I contacted Syd's about fixing an underground water main leak in my yard. the water line was about 8' below ground. I had another company locate the leak, and had Syd's repair it. Syd's quickly dug down the 8' feet and repaired the broken pipe. they cleaned up the area well when completed and left me the broken section of pipe for reference. Syd's charged $600 less than the other estimate that I received.

Jay responded within in a couple minutes of the request I have placed on Yelp. The Drain Gays provided a VERY competitive proposal for the requested remodeling project - I have asked to relocate a kitchen sink drain pipe and install all the plumbing to prepare drain and water supply connections for washer and laundry tub in a new laundry room downstairs.
Rich did all the requested work in a timely manner and cleaned and removed all debris from the work site after the work was done. I would use them and again for any plumbing needs, for sure!

We had a leak of unknown, but suspected origin, coming from an upstairs bathroom into a kitchen closet.  We weren't sure where it was coming from, but instead of testing out several theories, we used the internet to get help from 4 Service Pros.  Although on a Friday afternoon, Willis sent an email with his picture telling us his eventual arrival time around 5:00.  He hadn't been in the house two minutes when he diagnosed the problem. Not missing caulk in the shower.  Not a leak in the supply pipe beyond the bath.  Not something in the line from the hot water heater in the attic.  He quickly spotted some discoloration near the tiles surrounding the toilet (that wasn't obvious to us) and found that its shutoff valve was not functioning properly and probably hadn't for many months.   With his expertise and experience, he figured out the issue in a matter of minutes.  It would have taken us days.  He also took steps to shut off the malfunctioning toilet, and then he recommended options for a better long-term solution with competitive cost estimates.  He was efficient, wore a Covid mask and booties, and engaged us in interesting conversations.  Rather than an angst-filled evening, we had a pleasant experience with Willis, and we felt much-relieved to have a simpler problem than we feared.  The whole process took less than 15 minutes.  We will take his recommendation on a replacement.  And we would recommend Willis and 4 Service Pros for your plumbing problems.

My garbage disposal went up in smoke so I left Belle View plumbing, a yelp message and a photo two days later he came over and fixed it promptly and the price was very reasonable. I now have a plumber I can trust. Thank You!

Daniel was very professional, knowledgeable and arrived on time.  He did a fantastic job removing our old toilets, and installing the new ones.

Daniel cleaned up the areas when he was finished.  He made sure that we were completely satisfied before he left our home.

I would highly recommend Daniel for all of your plumbing needs.

I've called Gerry a few times for various plumbing issues in my apartment. Super nice, fast, and honest while charging very reasonable prices. He has even saved me money, fixing things and providing guidance on how to avoid expensive repairs and replacements later.

Amazing Service

We have used these guys for years, they are always ontime, clean, organised and always fair and upfront in the information they give....pricing is fair and you always get more then what you paid for.....Stephanie is the voice on the phone when you call most often and she is so reliable and knowledgeable about the business.....she is very customer oriented and very friendly.....give them a call, its worth it!!!!

They came out promptly, assessed the leak (it was behind the wall, and made the necessary repairs. Also, they had another gentleman come over and repair the wall to like new condition. Good people.

I found Tony and Ruach Home Services on Yelp. Tony was very friendly to me and he made me feel at ease that he removed the drywall ceiling because of mold. He also removed the exhaust fan. After that, he added new drywall and installed a new exhaust fan. He finally painted on the wall. Tony did a fabulous job.

Alfonso and team were great, on time, and competitive with pricing.  I'll use them again for any future HVAC needs.

I can't emphasize enough on how much of an awesome experience I had using Quality Sewer and Drain for my mom's home! The owner, Greg was spontaneous in answering all my questions and did his best to fit me into the schedule the following week as the sewer line was collapsing! He sent his team lead, Matt to visit the site, run the camera to see exactly what was causing the back up.  Matt was great in explaining what he found, the type of line used 70 years ago and how he was going to replace the lines in detail, etc. I received quotes from several other plumbing companies, but felt more comfortable with someone that specialized in only doing sewer and water line replacements (and glad I did as there was some minor challenges - see tunneling under street). The job was completed in one day and approved the following by the county inspector!   I'm so glad I found this company.  They are reasonable, knowledgeable and take pride in their work.  Thank you!

FINALLY, a plumber that doesn't suck! It was even a home warranty call (on which they make less money) and we were still treated like we were their best client. They sent a guy named, Jack, who couldn't have been more polite and respectful. SUCH a breath of fresh air. Their magnet is DEFINITELY going on our fridge!

I hired a Chantilly company called Airbenders to replace the HVAC unit in my home before OHA purchased the company. The owner did not give me the lowest estimate, but he treated me kindly and respectfully when he came to my home. I like the unit; however, the technicians damaged my home. Then, they would not make the repairs or clean up after themselves. After OHA's quality control officer found out about the problem, she contacted me by phone and promised to make it right. Today, Cody came to my home and identified the issue with my unit. He was on point, polite, and willing to explain the details in a direct manner. He also brought a gentleman with him to repair the previous damage to my home, which he did. I was blown away by how serious the company was about making everything right. I started today hopeful and am ending it not just satisfied, but impressed.

Quick response, service within a day, awesome job removing a corroded bathroom faucet and replacing it. Will use again!

They are very expensive.  We had bathroom toilet issues, one is fine but the second still doesn't work well.  I wasn't home for visit but came home to $1300 bill.   We could have put 2 new toilets for the cost of this experience.   It's so hard to find a good honest plumbers and other services.

Technicians are always polite, professional and informative.  Customer service on the phone has been very courteous and responsive.  Technicians usually arrive within the time period planned.

I called this to assist with putting a shower pan down (tub removed,).  Set up an appointment and they never showed up.  In addition, they over charged me $1,700.  They said my chili g would need to be cut...uhmmm.  i got it done by a plummer and it was $675.00.

So I strongly suggest the person looking at my review reads it instead of looking at the star rating. Depending on who you are you may rank them higher or lower.

The issue:
My main water line sprung a leak during the cold weather. I decided I should replace the whole line rather than patch it. I called a bunch of plumbers and only Gaitherburg Plumbing actually responded. They managed to quickly get a guy out to give me an estimate on the waterline replacement.

The estimate is simple and they gave me a fair value. They said it would be an easy job that would take slightly over half a day since my waterline had easy access underneath my grass. Setting up an appointment to have them come out and fix it was simple.

Day One:
The plumbers show up and dig the normal hole needed to address my main water line. They had everything pretty much ready by lunchtime and were working on switching out the pipes. They told me there was some complications and they couldn't pull the pipe out and they may have to rip up my garage in order to get the pipe through. I expressed I was not happy about that. A couple hours pass and they came back and said they needed to cut and dig up a hole in my driveway. They said it was my only option if I wanted water. They said if they didn't do it, the replacement wouldn't work out and they'd have to rip up my basement and a larger hole in my driveway if I didn't approve them to dig a small hole in my driveway. I asked them if this would be it and they assured me it would be simple once they got this hole dug. I gave them the go ahead. They dug the hole but it was approaching the end of the day. They said they'd have to come back another day, but they had everything they needed right there in that hole and it'd be a quick couple hours and everything will go smoothly.

Day Two:
The plumbers were there bright and early and working on it. Suddenly after a couple hours they said they had complications. They said that their boss was telling them to convince me to dig up my garage and basement. The plumbers were nice enough to tell their boss I wouldn't approve it. So they said they could easily dig two holes in the grass on the side of my house and pretty much be done. This really annoyed me because yesterday they told me they had to dig up my garage and driveway and there was no other way. It turns out there was another way! I give them the go ahead on the holes on the side of my house which they continue to dig. There simple two holes didn't work. They came back and said they had complications and needed to dig a trench along the side of my house. Since it was dirt I was okay with it because I needed it over. They dug the trench and I had water. They didn't fill any of the holes back in because their machine broke. They told me they'd fill it back in the next day after the inspector comes and approves their work. I was happy I at least had water. I asked them if I needed to take any precautions so the new pipe won't freeze while still partially exposed. They assured me they couldn't possibly happen.

Day Three:
I wake up and go to shower. To my surprise I have no water. I call the plumbing company who eventually sends a guy out. He looks and tells me my waterline froze, but not to worry it was only the connector. He said no damage would come to the line. I am weary if that is truly the case, but it seems to make sense the way he described it. He defrosted the connector and I had water again. I just had to leave my water running all day to prevent it from freezing again. The other plumbers finally showed up and filled in the holes after the inspector approved of their work.

The Aftermath:
Pros:
Despite taking longer they didn't charge me extra because my contract explicitly stated the price for the job and not for how long they worked it.

Cons:
They did do the final charge on my credit card with out my approval (They did call me to tell me they think I approved it so they were just going to charge it). I won't hold that against them since I would've used that credit card for the final approval. I should point this out for anyone who might not be happy about that.

My carpet is an absolute mess. They did not lay down any plastic tarps over the rugs they had to walk on. I expected them to keep a thing neater, but my light colored rug is now caked with mud and probably stained. I'll have to get my carpets cleaned. Mind you it is not a little bit of dirt it is A LOT. The plumber saw that on the last day and was like well I tried to at least not to dirty it I just wasn't successful you can't hold that against me.

My shelving is still on the floor. They ripped down shelving because it was in their way. They never put it back up and it's just laying on my basement floor.

They did a really bad job filling the holes. They didn't really pack the hole and I have massive mounds of dirt on my lawn and a small one in the hole in my driveway (They don't fix concrete damage)

Kevin Jenkins came to my house to fix the kitchen sink - turns out one small $3 part had come unscrewed. It took him in total 35 mins (including going to get the part) and he charged me a ridiculous amount of $180 for the service. Refused to give an estimate or talk price until he presented me an invoice at the end. Charged a $45 travel fee to drive less than a mile. Completely unprofessional and I was extremely dissatisfied with the service. The only good part was that he was only about a half an hour late and came on a Saturday. DO NOT USE HIM.
