Do we work in your area?
Before you call a plumber
The plumber swaps parts until something works.
We find the cause before we price the fix. When a toilet blocks every few weeks, the trouble is usually further down the drain, and a new bowl won’t change that. See plumbing repair.
Nobody shows up when they said.
Once we’ve booked the visit, you get a text with the day, the arrival window and the address. If we’re running behind, you hear it from us before the window opens. We pick up the phone from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM every day, and a message left after that gets answered the next morning.
The bill grows once the wall is open.
The visit and the written price cost nothing, and you agree the number before work starts. Tracing a hidden leak is its own job with its own price, and you know that price before the search starts. What plumbing repairs cost.
Wet footprints and a hole left in the wall.
We cover the floor and our shoes, and tidy the room before we leave. A wall gets opened once, where the leak actually is, and the patch is quoted separately so you can see what it costs.
Your plumbing through the year around DC
November to February. The average first freeze in Washington is around November 12. Pipe in outside walls, crawl spaces and unheated garages freezes first. If one splits, close the main and then call us. A burst pipe or an active leak gets booked within 48 hours. Read what to do when a pipe bursts.
December and January. December is the worst month for burst pipes, sewer backups and failed water heaters. Drain calls peak in January, when holiday grease hardens in cold pipes. See drain cleaning.
April to July. The last freeze is around April 1, which is when a hose bib that cracked over the winter starts dripping inside the wall. May through July is usually the wettest stretch, so run the sump pump in April while you still have time to replace it.
August to October. Atlantic hurricane season peaks near September 10, and the leftover rain fills basements here. Plan a water heater swap or repipe for the fall, then run the yearly plumbing checklist before November.
