Best Water Softener Installation in Washington DC

My husband and I began a recent search for a great plumber when our home warranty company failed to meet the mark. We turned to Yelp to seek a reputable plumber, with good reviews, and a quick turnaround time. Drain Works far exceeded our expectations! First, Jorge, the owner (and plumber extraordinaire), responded back to our quote request within moments and was available to come to our home within two days... sooner if we had been available.

Now, onto the good stuff. Our home is relatively old, 51 years to be exact, and we were down to 1 working bathroom, of the three available in the house. The first issue was the master bath; we'd been having problems with it since purchasing our home about a year ago; recurring stoppage, water backing up into the toilet and shower, yadda, yadda. Our home warranty sent four different plumbing companies... accumulating more than seven visits, to no avail. Matter of fact, they ultimately said they wouldn't cover it because they considered it a mainline issue. THEN, enter Jorge. And thank you, sweet baby Jesus. Jorge was able to clear the lines in the upstairs bathroom, finding a wad of towels or paper or other things we should just leave to the imagination, while none others had been able. I'm happy to report that a week later, we are still in business and fully functioning.

Next issue, our basement bathroom. The basement bathroom had sprung a leak around the base of the toilet. We tried to fix this one ourselves, thinking we just needed to replace the wax ring or something. But upon pulling the toilet, discovered that our original flange was broken and crumbling, resulting in a leak. We were fearful that this fix would require breaking up the concrete floor to replace the entire pipe and flange (old cast iron); however, Jorge suggested he could rebuild the existing flange because there was still enough intact. I'm thankful that he proposed a fix instead of a full bathroom renovation, and this too has been working successfully ever since. It's not often these days that we encounter people who are truly masters of their trade. PS - both jobs were completed in the same day.

Jorge was completely professional, courteous, and fair. Also, he was clean and respectful of our home. We would hire him again in a heartbeat! He will be our go-to plumber for any future needs.

This place is fantastic. He completely remodeled a bathroom for me. He was quick, fairly priced, cleaned up thoroughly and was polite and respectful. The bathroom looks amazing!  I will definitely use again and would recommend to anyone!

Good service is hard to find these days, let alone great service. However, that's exactly what I received when I reached out to Lyons Plumbing.  The service was outstanding and my issue was resolved at a reasonable price.  I found Dan, the owner, to be very responsive.  And Mark, the tech, knew exactly how to fix the issue in my bathroom and was able to resolve it in about an hour.  I now know that I'll be using them for any plumbing issue I run into in the future.  I would highly recommend Lyons Plumbing to anyone that needs a reliable, trustworthy company to address any of their plumbing needs, without overcharging.

Jermaine was an awesome tech! They contacted me in advance letting me know they were on their way to our home. He was extremely well versed in  exactly what needed to be done with our exterior plumbing issues and was quick,polite,neat and his pricing was quite competitive. I would recommend Marine Plumbing to all of my friends and business associates. Thanks for resolving our plumbing issues.

This company charges $49 to just get an estimate of plumbing work. The $49 is subtracted from the cost of the project. The receptionist's reasoning is that they're too busy. If you're a wise consumer and wish to shop around for a good plumber with good reviews before committing to one, contact ANY other company you find on Yelp.

George responded to my inquiry promptly and showed up just a day or two later. He was sitting outside in his truck maybe 10 mins prior to our appointment at 10:00 am, rang our doorbell at 10:00 am on the dot. He was was professional, kind, well prepared and full of information.

The visit was complimentary but he did need to do some light work for which he charge us a fair and reasonable price.

Thank goodness we didn't need extensive work done. If we should win the future I will definitely reach out to him again. I definitely recommend him.

THNAK YOU!

We had a recurring plumbing problem where our main sewage line was getting clogged and would back up into our toilet, tub, and drain in our basement - after only being in our new house for about 4 months (pretty frustrating). The first time it happened we had a local plumber come in to snake the drain, which seemed to fix the problem, but only temporarily. This time we decided to try a larger plumbing company, since we knew with this being a recurring issue, we would probably need a snake that had a camera attached so we could see where the back-up was coming from. So, Dr. Larry showed up and came in willing to help us and go to any length to make us feel comfortable and confident we had made a good decision going with them. He even spoke with our home warranty company, since they covered the price for the snake (for a second time keep in mind), to explain to them what the pricing, and the servicing entailed. He was so helpful and knowledgable, we felt completely comfortable with Dr. Larry, that we plan on requesting him personally next time we have an issue - which I hope won't be anytime soon.

I would recommend anyone calling in to ask for Dr. Larry if you want efficient and honest service! Thanks again Dr. Larry!!

Pros: Mike was terrific.  He was punctual, able to unclog my sink, and knowledgeable.  

Cons: Shannon provided a quote, but failed to list potential additional fees.  When I spoke with Jasmine on the phone, I informed her that I needed the snake machine.  Even after stating this, she failed to mention that there was an additional fee to use the snake machine.  I realize that she probably thought I didn't know what I was talking about, but I knew this because I snaked my sink twice and needed to bring in the big guns.  Had I received an accurate quote for $310 to unclog my kitchen sink and buy the special enzyme powder, I would have used somebody else.  

I am appreciative of Shannon for displaying excellent customer service skills and charging me for the hourly rates I was anticipating as I wasn't aware of additional fees when agreeing to use Mallick.  

Learn from me:  DO NOT put spices down the kitchen sink when cleaning out your pantry.
