"I was impressed by how hard working and thorough the workers were. They hauled the old gas water heater out and got the new one installed promptly and did a neat job. They reconfigured an awkward gas pipe near my washing machine, replaced an exterior gas hose with a UV resistant one, and checked all gas piping including our gas fireplace. We were very pleased with the end result and appreciated the fair pricing. Highly recommend."

"My well pump pressure tank needed service and I called Friday and Barbara was very professional and eager to help. She took the time to understand the issue and even reviewed the pictures. Barbara is very passionate about her job. She was able to schedule for Saturday. Dave came out. He called to let me know that he was on his way and let me know when he will arrive. He was very punctual, professional, friendly, and down to business. Totally impressed with the way he solved the problem and made sure that answered all of my questions. This company is very ethical and I would recommend them to anyone."

"Shawn did very well. He fixed a moen shower faucet without having to replace it. He was reasonably priced which made the repair an even better value Most plumbers charge a lot more. We appreciate his work and would use him again."

"Valpo Services provided a great service from start to finish. Our house was built in 1925 and did not have air duct only window air conditioning units.
After we made the necessary research and requested several quotes, we decided
to use Valpo Services for the installation of a Central Air Unit. Walter came
to our home and provided us with several different options for a Central Air
Unit that would fit our home and needs. For the first time we did not feel pressured
to buy a specific Unit. At the end of the day Walter provided us with a really
competitive quote and showed us a timeline for the installation. Our questions
were always answered on a timely manner. Walter, Hector, Alex and the rest of
the team were always on time, worked hard to make sure the unit was installed on
time and always made sure we were satisfied with the work.  We are very pleased with the quality of work,
service and professionalism the company provided us with. We will highly
recommend Valpo Services to colleagues and friends and we will certainly continue
to use their services.

"Summary: Great service. Felt really confident in the knowledge and skills of the plumber. Work was quick and well done. Yet...paid out the nose, what seems in retrospect like a crazy high price that we're still trying to understand. Details; We moved into a house with a weird basement toilet-- an above-ground macerator (grinder) in a closet next to a Saniflo toilet, instead of a pipe to the sewer line. The grinder stopped working while renters were staying here, and we needed it fixed ASAP. Non-functioning toilet = non-functioning rental! Jiffy was super responsive on a Saturday morning. They're available 24/7 we're told! We got someone on the phone right away, which was not the case with other places we called. They had a guy out to the house in less than 3 hours to do an estimate. The plumber, Scott, had 8+ years of experience and suggested several options. My partner suggested a less-labor-intensive (and less expensive) option -- running pipe above ground to the sewer line instead of jackhammering into the concrete slab to lay pipe -- and Scott was happy to roll with that and make sure it would work well for us. He also assured us he could get it done same-day, which was great. No pressure. He quoted us $2k, flat fee. He left and we researched our options. In the meantime, the macerator spontaneously started working and cleared the clog, which meant it would not require anyone to pump out the toilet bowl or the pipe, which we expected would save him considerable labor and mess. We called the main number and asked about any change to the price and were politely rebuffed. A $2K quote was a $2k quote. We couldn't get anyone else to come give us an estimate in a timely manner and Jiffy has great reviews here, so we called Jiffy back and said we'd like to work with them. Scott came within an hour or two, after finishing a plumbing job at Lowe's. (We felt re-assured that even Lowe's trusts Jiffy with their plumbing!). Scott came in, removed the macerator, cut the metal sewer pipe, and connected the toilet to the sewer line with some PVC pipe and joints. He tested it with us, explained his work, and disposed of the used materials for us. All appreciated. In total, he was in and out in less than 4 hours. It was a great experience work-wise, and we don't mind at all to pay more for a very skilled, high-quality job that avoids sewage in our basement!! Still....we can't for the life of us figure out how that adds up to $2K, and felt a bit like we were easy marks as first-time home owners who clearly needed the service day-of. We didn't realize when he said he could "get it done today" that he meant it would only take 3-4 hours. That's $500/hr. Even if we doubled it to 8 hours of labor if we round up generously on the commute and time to buy materials, that's $250/hour. We're told $175/hr is standard, or up to $210 on the very high end. We also know from other DIY projects that the materials (PVC and joints) were inexpensive. I don't know if we paid for special expertise, or "emergency rates" or what. Again, we don't mind at all paying for quality, but we're stumped. Live and learn, but next time we'll be sure to ask how many hours it will probably take, and start our negotiations about price from there. Note: If anyone has information about pricing methods that would make sense out of this for us, we'd be open to that too, and I'd change the review to Yes, Would Hire Again. We'd want to hire again, for all the reasons above, but would hesitate because I don't feel great about a pricing strategy of "see what the customer will be willing to pay unwittingly, and go with that." :P p.s. Given the price, the 11% Angie's List membership discount was much appreciated!"

"The installation of these items went very well. Kelly was punctual and very efficient. A malfunctioning toilet in a powder room needed to be removed, and a different toilet installed. Also, a new toilet had to be installed in the master bedroom and a new faucet needed to be installed in the kitchen. He was cordial and very willing to explain the approach he was taking with the work. This increased my comfort level a great deal. I consulted with him on the ordering of the toilets and faucet from a design showroom and he passed along the plumber's discount that he received to me. The installation of the faucet also went well. The space that he needed to work in was very tight and the faucet was not easy to install, due to the placement of the faucet hole and its proximity to the kitchen windowsill. However, he was able to complete the installation without any issues. What I really appreciated is that he is very meticulous, takes a great deal of pride in his workmanship, and is very careful to make sure that the work is done correctly. He also cleans away any debris from any areas that he works on. He is respectful of a person's home, which I appreciate. The quality of the work was terrific. He also offered advice on work that I might need to undertake in the future, which I appreciated. I would definitely hire him again (and I have)."

FAQs for well pump installation and replacement projects in Washington, DC

Signs that your well pressure tank requires replacement include inconsistent water pressure, your pump turning on and off frequently (known as short cycling), visible leaks around the tank, or unusual noises from your well system. Physical damage, corrosion, or a tank that's reached its seven to 10-year expected lifespan may also indicate it's time for replacement. When multiple issues arise simultaneously, replacement often proves more economical than attempting repairs.

The timeframe for professional well pressure tank replacement varies depending on your specific system and any complications that might arise during installation. Factors that can affect installation time include accessibility of your current tank, whether additional components need replacement, and the complexity of your well system. For precise timing expectations, consult with the professional handling your installation.

Attempting to replace your well pressure tank involves several potential risks, including improper pressure calibration that could damage your pump, contamination of your water supply, and physical injury from handling heavy equipment. Additionally, incorrect installation might lead to water leaks, property damage, or system inefficiency. Many manufacturers also specify that professional installation is required to maintain warranty coverage, making the $125 to $200 professional installation fee a worthwhile investment for most homeowners.
