"I can’t recommend Sean Urquhart from A1 Sewer & Drain highly enough! We discovered a leak in our hot water heater last night and called A1’s 24/7 line. I was relieved to get an appointment scheduled for the very next day. Sean arrived on time, quickly assessed the situation, and gently broke the news that our water heater needed to be replaced. Although I was initially upset—since the water heater was installed just three years ago—Sean eased my concerns with his calm demeanor and professionalism, which made me feel much better about moving forward. Sean was incredibly respectful of our home, especially our new carpet. He took great care not to track dirt inside or get the carpet wet while replacing the unit, and he cleaned up thoroughly before leaving. Overall, Sean did an excellent job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to call A1 Sewer & Drain again for any plumbing needs. Highly recommended!!"

"Exceptional customer service and workmanship. Dave texted me to let me know in advance to let me know he was running late (on a Saturday afternoon). As for replacing the faucet, he disassembled the old and cleaned the drain/stopper pipe, and replaced within an hour."

"Had water pipe freeze and burst in master bath ceiling on Christmas Eve AM. Tony was out here by early afternoon and had plumbing fixed by later afternoon. The ceiling had fallen in and by noon on the 27th everything was restored! Tony kept in touch throughout and the work was excellent. Can't praise highly enough."

"I had a water leak from the hot water heater and everyone was super helpful and nice! Chris was the first one I met and I had ALOT of questions but he made sure to help answer them and if he couldn't Joey did! Everyone from Joey, Will, Diego, Daniel and Chris stayed on top of making sure I had what I needed to fix everything. These guys did an amazing job getting my house back to living condition and even while I was in hotel they checked in and gave me plenty of updates on my house! I am very grateful for their help! I will definitely use them again if I ever need anything and consider them like friends!"

"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."

"Went very well. Took them longer to set up the large ladder than to install the chandelier. They were careful not to mar the new floors and freshly painted walls. Very "Professional and Personable" personnel. My price was based on an hourly rate but the size of the lighting could affect the rate. Pictures are from a distance and do not completely show the chandelier."

"I had Donna come out and scope the pipes and she let me know that i had a "belly" in my old terra cotta pipes. My house is 95 years old, and the pipes were original to the house. It was time to replace the sewage pipe, or face a back up of sewage into my home! No thanks!
Joanne and Donna worked with my schedule to find a time to do the work that met my needs. Donna, the owner, and Joanne the office scheduler have a ton of experience and advice. Donna's company really wants to do a good job for you, and they were really stand up contractors. Donna's whole team was a real pleasure to work with. 
The first day, we thought that we were going to be able to do a pipe bursting technique, but as it turned out, i was not a good candidate for this type of work due to the damage to the pipes. Instead, they ended up having to dig a trench from my house to the alley- which was quite the production!
It was a huge mess, but Underground Services First's workmen were total pro's. They worked hard and diligently, and did their best to avoid any areas of landscaping that they could- in fact, they painstakingly avoided my garden, which i really appreciated.   Additionally, they had to remove the fence in the back, and remove 3 sections of concrete to get to the pipe (2 outside the home, and also inside). At the end of the project they got the work inspected (and i was given a copy of both inspections) they  backfilled and compacted the yard, reseed my yard and put hay on it, replaced my fence, re-poured the concrete sections, and install a clean out near the alley and a backwater preventer. My only complaints are that they left some of the materials in the yard from the dig- a fence post, and some lengths of concrete- which i am not strong enough to move, and some of my brick contained gardens were broken and dislodged- but it was very close to the active work cite where the fence met the cite, so i was pretty sure that they would be broken in the process already. All in all this project took about a week, and i was only without use of my toilet for half a day (what a relief!).
While this experience was incredibly stressful- for both my pocket book and myself, Underground Services First did a great job minimizing the stress, and kept on working until the job was done. They kept me informed of their progress, explained the processes, and were respectful and polite in my home. I would absolutely recommend them to any person facing a sewage replacement. I'm looking forward to seeing grass in the back yard again!

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Petersburg, VA

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
