"I came home from work to find our 40-gallon water heater was not working (it was working that morning). The pilot was out and I could not get it re-lit (I do know how to light a pilot) After checking a number of companies on Angie's List, I contacted DB's Plumbing and Drain. Although it was almost 6pm, a very nice person answered the phone and I explained my dilemma. I was told they could send someone that night but would have to charge an after-hours rate. I was reasonably certain what was wrong would not be a simple fix like re-lighting a pilot so scheduled a visit for the following morning between 10 am and 12 noon. Michael D arrived shortly after 10 am. He was very courteous, polite and professional. Before entering my home, he donned a pair of shoe covers which was kept on as long as he was in the house. He diagnosed the problem as being a failed main burner system. As the water heater was 14-years-old, I weighed the cost of replacing just the main burner system on such an old unit against replacing the unit itself. I opted for the water heater replacement. Michael setup the old unit to drain while he went to retrieve the new one from their warehouse which took him about 45 minutes. Upon his return, he removed the old unit and cleaned up the area. He then cut back the existing copper lines to eliminate the numerous soldered couplings from the previous homeowner's repairs. He installed new copper pipes including a new quarter turn shut-off valve. A catch pan was placed and the water heater setup in it. Up reconnecting the gas line, he installed a sediment trap or drip leg (it did not have one previously) which catches sediment sometimes present in natural gas. After bringing the system online, Michael checked the gas line connections for leaks using a detection monitor. The installation was clean and neat and it is obvious Michael is conscientious about his work. Always interested in how things in my home work, Michael was very gracious in answering my questions regarding the installation. I am very happy with the install.and would like to thank Michael for his professionalism and the education."

"Rema was fantastic. It was a tricky job replacing a water heater tank in a cramped space, and Rema both helped guide us to the right approach plus handled the install and removal of the old unit flawlessly. We'll hire Remedy again for future projects!"

"My main water line was leaking so I called a couple of companies to inquire. Interstateâ s estimate was thousands of dollars lower.. Work was completed within a week and took a bit longer than expected but that was ok with me. Customer service rep and the workers were extremely cordial, answered questions fully, efficient and reliable. Would highly recommend! I also use them to maintain my lawn irrigation system but didnâ t realize it until after I hired them as the name was slightly different...."

"I worked with Prince William Plumbing to have the leak in our main water line on our front yard repaired. They are honest, affordable, reliable, punctual and professional. We have been completely satisfied with our decision. John came to our house the same day I called in and gave us a quote. Instead of trying to convince us replacing the whole water line, he said a repair should be enough. He offered us a 5 year warranty. Most important of all, his price was much more affordable than others. It was almost too good to be true. He honored 5% Angie’s List customer coupon on the top of that. John has done the repair with his assistant. They answered all my questions patiently. They cleaned up the area nicely after the job is done. John is very experienced. He is a long time resident of Nokesville, a nice town in Prince William county. You get the friendly treatment of a small town neighbor in city when you work with John. He is a great family man with six kids. We will definitely call him again with our plumbing needs. Thanks to Angie’s List, I have finally found a reliable and affordable plumber."

"Complete main water replacement on a townhouse. Geary Powell was very accessible and clear on what the work entailed. Work quality and repair team were great. Not sure about the price didn't get additional estimates. Based on HomeAdvisor price range for main replacement the cost was midway between avg high $2500 & above avg, high of $5000."

"We hired Sam for dry wall repair after a pipe burst and water valve replacement. Since we had him there he also replaced a shower drain and did our kitchen backsplash. He was professional and always on time. Prices are very fair. He did great work on all projects. Will definitely use him again."

"I found water on the floor of my basement! Horrors! I got 3 estimates and chose T.QEXCAVATION.Plumbing to do the fix. I liked the work ethic of Terence, the owner who was the guy who did the job. He kept me informed of what was happening and how the project was going, turned the water on when he could and off when he needed to so I had water off and on instead of not which meant the world to me. The job is done, I'm happy with the result and would recommend T.QEXCAVATION.PLUMBING to anyone in need of any kind of plumbing job. He is my plumber from now on."
