"They were excellent! I called while at work and they arrived at my house within five minutes. They explained everything to my mom, who was home, and called me to verify what was needed for the repair. The repair on took only 5 minutes. A few months ago, we had another company fix the toilet. Apparently they did not properly install it and it cause a slow leak. What impressed me is that Cipriano could have really charged a lot and over sold what needed to be done but they did not. They fixed the leak. They were honest, knowledgeable, courteous, quick, and really nice people. I would hire them again and plan to for future projects."

"I am SO pleased with this experience with GAC and highly recommend them! OUTSTANDING information and research on our behalf by Kelly for estimate options and finding the best unit and price for our needs. Chris was very impressive when he came to our home for preparation of the HVAC air handler/heat pump installment. Top notch work by John and the GAC crew on the actual work putting in my unit. They gave us the option and were qualified to run/install a new wire for our electric needs to have all energy savings of the equipment. Easy scheduling with Monica and follow-up too. ALL the GAC staff were happy to answer our various questions in full detail so we understood everything in this project and could make informed decisions. GAC found a high quality unit (Bryant) that suited our needs AND qualified for a PEPCO rebate, which they quickly filed on our behalf. We have been customers for years with GAC for maintenance and with this install, plan to be for years to come."

"Excellent! Sterling was prompt, courteous, and professional in the way he went about the job, explaining each step and telling me up front what the cost of the effort would be. He cleaned the clog and left no mess whatsoever. I would highly recommend his business and would seek his help again for another plumbing problem."

"The drain in our upstairs bathtub was clogged and it would not drain. I left a voice mail at about 8 AM, and Patrick phoned me back immediately. He arrived earlier than promised. After surveying the job, he told me it was a flat rate for the job and he went to work. He got the drain all cleared out and left the area cleaner than he found it. I know that the job was straightforward, but Patrick set himself apart from others we've hired with his courtesy and professionalism. We would definitely hire him again for plumbing work."

"Am starting this review for this contractor as he partially finished the job with the promise to be back in two weeks to address the remaining cosmetic clean-up and seeding.  I will finish reviewing the quality of his work in greater details when he comes back to complete the job started and update on the overall quality of his workmanship. 
Roots from a tree had damaged the sewer line of my 1949 house.  Needless to say, it was not pleasant.  I called five contractors and everyone (with the exception of 1) quoted similar estimates for the job.  I chose Knock Your Plumb Out Plumbing because reading the reviews in Angie's List, talking to a reference, and partially because Johnathan (the owner) was proactive in his communication with me.  He was efficient-visited my house, called the city to get a better idea of my sewer line and the city's, identified that a water line may have to be replaced since the sewer line is beneath it, gave me a quote--all within a span of a few hours.  He then followed-up.  I was initially taken aback on how assertive he was, but in retrospect, it was what made Johnathan stood out amongst the other 4 contractors I called.  Once I screened Johnathan, my husband took over the details in communicating with Jonathan while updating me.  My husband and I were quite concerned initially when we read the negative reviews that Jonathan did not come back to finish the job; however, Jonathan was open and willing to discuss our concerns.  He seemed upfront and a straight shooter, which my husband typically appreciates.
Once the contract was signed, Jonathan called to set up a day to begin the job.  Due to several raining days this past week, the work was delayed by a couple of days.  Jonathan and his crew worked all day to hand-dig the yard and completed the job by the evening.  My husband checked in twice throughout the day.  Our yard looks horrible right now, but Johnathan reassures us that I will look better.  He will come back to complete the job in two weeks and seed the yard for grass.  I will become back to finish up this review.  Thus far though, Johnathan is very professional.  His quote is within the range of other contractors' (although he gives a lifetime warranty-not sure whose life's or how we can enforce that though :))!  He is very communicative and will update you on the progress.  He didn't pick up my phone call but did pick up for my husband on the day he was working.  If all goes well, I will definitely recommend Knock Your Plumb Out Plumbing to other friends in the city and will use him again for other works.  Will be back to update this review.  The rating of B for "overall" and "quality" are not reflective of the work per say but as the work is not completed yet, it will have to be a B right now.

"Mr. Fama had not remembered or written down the appointment time and so came to my house before I got home. Once that was straightened out, he worked very hard to remove my old stubborn faucet and installed my new one. He made sure that it was installed correctly and there were no leaks."

"We are renovating our main bath and converting it to two new bathrooms. We needed to rough-in plumbing for 2 toilets, 3 sinks, a shower, and a tub and have the rough-in inspected because the job is permitted. Pohlman responded to our request for service quickly and scheduled the work promptly. The overall experience was excellent from start to finish. Their system works very well and they seem to have good inside communications. The estimator/project manager (Josh) is knowledgeable, courteous, and a good communicator. The office coordinator (Caitlin) is really on top of things and knows how to work with clients, and the team that showed up to do the work (Tom and Sterling) was highly skilled and also knows how to work with clients. The rough-in passed the county inspection first time, no issues. We have already referred them and will continue to do so. Nice job!"

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Riva, MD

Most trenchless sewer line replacements can be completed within one to three days, though this varies based on your situation. Simple repairs on accessible lines might be finished in hours, while complex systems or challenging soil conditions could extend the timeline. The reduced excavation requirements result in faster completion compared to traditional trenching methods.

Trenchless pipe lining may reduce the interior diameter of your pipes, which could affect flow capacity in already narrow lines. This method also requires the existing pipe to maintain sufficient structural integrity to support the new liner. Severely collapsed sections, major joint separations, or completely misaligned pipes might not be suitable candidates for lining and could require alternative approaches.

Trenchless sewer pipe liners are rated to last up to 50 years when properly installed and maintained. Actual longevity depends on installation quality, usage patterns, and environmental factors like soil movement or tree root intrusion. Regular maintenance and avoiding problematic disposal practices (like flushing non-biodegradable items) can help maximize your system's operational lifespan.

Trenchless technology availability varies by region, with greater accessibility in metropolitan and suburban areas where specialized contractors operate. Some rural locations may have limited access to trenchless equipment and expertise. Local regulations and soil conditions also influence availability. A professional assessment of your property and local contractor options will determine if trenchless methods are feasible for your specific location.

Professional video inspection provides the most reliable assessment of whether your sewer issues suit trenchless repair. Generally, pipes with moderate damage, like small cracks, minor leaks, or partial blockages, respond well to trenchless techniques. Completely collapsed sections, severe misalignments, or extensive structural failures might require traditional excavation. Consulting with contractors who offer both methods ensures you receive unbiased recommendations.

Quality trenchless sewer replacement often includes a workmanship guarantee from the contractor. The specific terms vary by company and region, but many professionals stand behind their installation for at least one year. Material warranties may extend longer, depending on the pipe products used. Always request written warranty information before hiring, and understand exactly what's covered and what might void your protection.
