Get matched with top water main install, replace or repairers in Anacostia, DC

"Called the main number and the lady I spoke with was very pleasant and easy to work with. Was looking to have a 50 gallon hot water heater installed, 2 drains snaked and a new faucet installed. She booked my appt for the next day. Zam came to the house to provide us the quote and even offered to do half the job then and come back in a few days to do the hot water heater. He was incredibly professional and did a great job on all the work. I highly recommend them and will call them again."

"This review is solely about the installation portion of the Puronics Water Treatment System since it was just installed today. The install team arrived on time, ready to go to work. The location of my main water line was tricky to get to, but they found a great solution to tap into the line via a drop-ceiling access point. They located the Hydronex Water Conditioning Cylinder and Salt Backflush Container exactly where I wanted it. Their work was clean, tight, and very professional. The RO system was backordered, so they explained that they will return within the week to install that portion of the project. They prepped for the RO install by drilling and installing the faucet in my granite countertop. After the install, they explained the whole system to my wife and I and we were up and running with conditioned water. I can't say enough about my experience with Chuck on the initial phone call, Miles who provided the water testing and sold me the system, and Ryan who installed the system. So far, I can't envision any issues that might arise with Orbit Water Solutions since they have provided outstanding service to this point!"

"I was promptly contacted by the company and scheduled someone to come by for an estimate. They came by, as scheduled, and gave us an estimate. Overall, was very satisfied with the company and would do business with them again. The only reason I didn't go through with the service is because I decided that I was going to have the entire bathroom remodeled and it would be a waste of money to have a bathtub that was going to be removed/replaced refinished."

"It was an absolute pleasure working with everyone at American Home Contractors (AHC). I had a very customized project requiring a very specific type of siding since I live in Georgetown, DC, and we have several layers of historic oversight required prior to permit issuance. In other words, this neighborhood is extremely difficult to work in due to all the regulations required to obtain a legal permit to do any external work on these historic homes. John Roda, AHC’s Project Coordinator, was my primary contact at AHC over the many months it took me to finally obtain my permit and begin deciding on how to obtain the siding necessary to meet permit specifications. He was extremely competent and patient throughout the entire process and worked closely with me and the Historic Preservation Office contact for Georgetown to ensure that we were meeting strict product demands while also staying within my budget. So many other companies either refused to work with me or were incapable of working with me on this project due to the difficulties I encountered while navigating the permitting process alone. AHC is different. They have stamina, courage, and endurance. High-quality people + high-quality materials= high-quality job with the added bonus of a decent price for what you are getting. In the end, my home looks absolutely stunning. Even more importantly, I now have the peace of mind that my home has good quality siding and is structurally sound. AHC actually had to remove the illegal Masonite siding (has a class-action lawsuit for the damage it has caused homes in the past) that was likely installed in ~1970-1980 without the issuance of a legal permit when the old pebble dash stucco was removed. They installed some beautiful cedar siding in its place. I spent many sleepless nights worrying about the damage the Masonite might have done to the furring strips and the old 1880s substrate in the lead-up to the installation. Thankfully, all was well and the installation was extremely efficient and successful. The AHC siding installers arrived at 7 am on the day of installation and worked tirelessly until 7 pm. We initially estimated the job would take ~ three days, and they finished in only a day. Their work ethic and workmanship on the installation were truly astounding, especially in an era when simple tasks are often drawn out and good work ethic and professionalism are touted ad nauseam by companies but rarely mobilized in practice. As a first time homeowner, I have gone through a lot of mental anguish with my home’s historic idiosyncrasies, particularly when I am in the process of gathering estimates for necessary maintenance work and wait weeks or even months to hear back from companies that overcharge for low-quality materials and unenthusiastic, inefficient labor. AHC is different. I heard back with my first estimate within days (during fall 2020 with the COVID pandemic raging on), the materials were excellent, the price was fair, and John was very enthusiastic and optimistic throughout the project’s duration even despite the multiplicity of hurdles we encountered with the ever-changing demands of the historic preservation specialists. The only upside of gathering competing estimates and meeting with all those contractors I met with initially is that when I finally found a gold standard contractor (AHC), I experienced the sheer relief of having a reliable contractor for my current and future projects and to wholeheartedly recommend to friends and family. I am so grateful to everyone at AHC who worked so hard to make what really seemed impossible and out-of-reach finally materialize. If you have a tough (or simple) project that you need to be done right and are torn between companies or are just starting your search for a reliable, five-star contractor, I can highly, highly recommend AHC based on my experience with them. You will not be disappointed."

"My roof was leaking due to the storms, and ended up needing to be replaced. It went very smoothly. I was able to work with Darren to get an estimate and quickly replace the roof before the next storm came through, even though I was not in the DC area at the time."

"Excellent- the flood in my basement was determined there was a back up from the sewer line. Right away the plumber called the specialized team to bring equipment to check the sewer line. A break was found on my property. I was given the estimate, which was less than I expected. The next morning they arrived with the heavy equipment, located the break and completed the repair."

"National Water Service installed a whole house carbon filtration system, water softener, and sediment filter right after our home was built. The water is fantastic (taste, smell, feel), and they have provided excellent service for maintenance over the past 20 years."

"Edmund and Wes where extremely professional and knowledgeable. Showed up right on time. They were able to determine that there was not a leak. Pertaining to the water pressure, Edmund identified the problem immediately as an old compensator that was part of the original main water line. He replaced it and we went from 50 PSI to 70 PSI through the entire house. The pressure on the second deck is strong just like the pressure in the basement. They are now my go to plumbing team in Leesburg."

"Bill was very responsive and did a very thorough assessment of the water damage. He provided a detailed estimate for the work at a fair price. My homebuilder agreed to repair the damage and I didn’t need to hire Flood Crew LLC. I would hire Flood Crew LLC in the future if needed."

"Ahmed had been working with the home warranty people for the past few weeks to ensure we got the correct tank. Home warranties only cover like for like typically so the new tank is not a vast improvement, but will save 150Kw or so per year. We're all electric so options were limited. Ahmed worked with our warranty company to get us the best tank possible under coverage and arrived same day once it was finally available which was also late in the afternoon, but he came anyway despite having to work past sunset and looming thunderstorms. 
Upon arrival and getting the old tank out, it was confirmed a drip tray which we did not previously have but wanted for the new tank to prevent water seepage into our finished area would not work in the space unless the utility sink was moved over along with the washer and dryer (thankfully we had almost a foot to spare on the other side within the space). We decided to go ahead and replace the sink too despite it doubling our out-of pocket costs that the warranty didn't cover. Ahmed took the time to go with me to a nearby Home Depot and once the sink was selected, ensured we had all the necessary parts to install properly. Though the job took a lot longer than anticipated and cost more money, I am totally satisfied with the level of craftsmanship Ahmed provided. He really knows plumbing, and made sure we were left with a better situation than what we had before, despite additional investment on our part; worth every penny!
His language skills are a bit of a hurdle, but Ahmed is 100% professional, courteous, knowledgeable, patient, cleaned up afterward, and I would recommend him for any plumbing task. He even took a minute to look at a problematic shower head that I thought was a pressure issue from the tank but was just clogged in the shower head's hose which he took care of no problem.
Thanks!
