Faucets, Fixtures and Pipes Repair or Replace
Stay far away. They over-quote the jobs trying to frighten you that the job is complex and then spend 1 hour to fix the problem while billing you for 5. They are not forthright and do not follow up with the right contact for the job. The work was sloppy and faulty as well as there remained a leak.

Water Heater Installation and Replacement
Excellent service! Had a hot water heater replaced. They came out to quote next business day and provided multiple quotes for multiple systems so l could pick the best option for my family and financial needs. Pricing was extremely competitive compared to other plumbers and the crew was friendly, quick, and cleaned up well after the project was complete. I will definitely use them in the future!

Faucets, Fixtures and Pipes Repair or Replace
Mr. Ellis and Zach came to check out an overflowing washing drain within two hours of my initial call. He assessed the issues, there were several. The next morning Mr. Ellis, Zach and Ollie were at my house ready to go. The problems were solved and I am a very happy customer. They were so nice, polite and hard working. I've never said "I've got a plumber", but I do now. This is a family owned business and they are terrific!!! Pricing is fantastic. Thanks so much to The Plumbing Officials.

Sewer Main Install, Replace or Repair
Mr. Ellis and his team were fantastic when our sewer line went out and our water line turned out to be lead. They kept us informed of all our options at each step and ensured that we were on board before any change in plans. Will definitely continue working with this team in the future.

Water Heater Installation and Replacement
Mr. Ellis (business owner) installed new water heater and quickly resolved two smaller plumbing issues, and did so with courtesy, efficiency, and at a reasonable price. (I obtained two other quotes â both higher â before hiring The Plumbing Officials.) office manager Dinessa quickly and positively responded to my telephone inquiries and provided prompt updates about scheduling the work. I enthusiastically recommend The Plumbing Officials to anyone in the RVA area.

Gas Piping
Mr. Ellis and his professional crew installed a gas pipe line so we could switch from an electric glass cooktop that chipped and cracked to a more efficient gas cooktop. They also installed the cooktop. We found Mr. Ellis to be knowledgeable, efficient, dependable and ready to explain all aspects of the process. We intend to hire The Plumbing Professionals for future projects. We are 100% satisfied.

The Plumbering Officials were very professional. They did an outstanding job and were always on time. When I first went on the website, Mr. Joe called that night to see if we had an emergency and needed him that night. They are amazing and do outstanding work. I highly recommend TPO.

Plumbing for a Remodel or Addition - Install
Mr. Ellis and team were incredibly efficient and knowledgeable. They understood what was needed to get done and got to work. Throughout the process it was clear that Mr. Ellis has deep knowledge of old Richmond homes and how to treat them appropriately. He walked me through each of the projects that I asked them to do before the work started and again after the work was completed. They added rough-ins for a bathroom remodel and finished the fixtures, installed a new waste stack, re-plumbed my entire water supply, added a hot water heater, and replaced my water main line. The pricing was very competitive and the quality of work was unmatched. In addition, each project came with its own warranty which is a nice addition. I look forward to engaging them again for future projects and will certainly recommend The Plumbing Officials to anyone I know who needs plumbing assistance.
