"Jimmy Gusky HVAC is truly as good as it gets. One of our AC units went down and through the warranty company found our way to Jimmy Gusky himself. Although out of their territory, Jimmy was willing to make the extra trip to diagnose the problem. He was very responsive to get our initial service call scheduled and determined the unit needed to be replaced, and we all know these units usually decide to break down only when pushed to the limit in the hottest summer months and we need AC the most. He did the legwork to get the warranty company to honor the recommendation and as you can see from the attached photo put in a much more substantial unit that is doing a fabulous job cooling the home. Add to that he actually had the unit and scheduled the install even before the warranty company approved the swap out. I that isn't one of the greatest examples of outstanding customer service and going above and beyond to exceed expectations, I don't know what is. Big thanks to Jimmy and team for their commitment to excellence!"

"My Remedy Plumber arrived on time and didn’t really charge me for his service because he stated what he needed to do may not fix my problem because I needed a new faucet which he did not have. Water was running from both the tub’s faucet and the shower head. After pulling off the faucet and making a minor adjustment to a washer within the faucet the problem was "temporary" fixed, the washer was damaged. He stated that a new faucet was needed and that I could call back to have that installed. I thanked him, gave him a small thank you gift, and he was on his way. I was thankful that this plumber had "integrity" and did not try to overcharge me for work that did not fix my problem. I would surly hire this company again!!"

"The repair man was a Burmese guy, Joe, and he did an outstanding job changing the anode bar and removing the sediment from my water heater. This should extend the life of the tank. Joe showed up 10 minutes early and finished promptly. He worked hard and had the necessary supplies and tools. He knew what he was doing. I would glad to use Joe again in the future!"

"I had to replace a water heater quickly. Gave me a competitive quote with a water heater with desirable specs within a day and scheduled me the day after. Technician was knowledgeable and efficiently performed the work. Water heater performs just fine. Cleaned up workspace and took a few mins to walk through water heater and maintenance after."

"Service was professional and experienced. They discussed with me the work that was involved before they begin the work, and whether there was any other options I should consider. The work was completed quickly, and the water pressure was improved immediately. I wish I had known the need for the repair long ago, we had been suffering from poor water pressure for some years."

"It was great finding Washington Home Doctor Inc. Our water heater started to leak. We found them on Angi.com. The next day the company installed a new energy efficient water heater. The gentleman were on time and professional. One week later they were hired again to replace a copper pipe. Will definitely use them again for our plumbing needs."

"Kurt and his team at American Home Services did an absolutely amazing job.  They are very committed and honest.  Unlike other companies I got quotes from, they do not use scare tactics.  I had two separate mold jobs done, which I will describe below:
1- Visible mold in basement:  They start by totaling sealing the room in plastic and running air scrubbers constantly so there was no cross contamination.  His team helped me go through each item, hand by hand, determine if they could be cleaned or needed to be tossed.  This took a full day, and they literally looked at each photo, book, piece of furniture, etc. with me.  I was able to salvage more items than I thought would be possible.  They then went to work removing the damaged dry wall and floor molding (which poetically had mold on the back of it).  After disposing of the damaged items, they sprayed down all the walls, floors, ceilings, etc. with non toxic cleaners.  By throwing away all the contaminated items, and cleaning everything that remains, the rooms are now mold free.  They don't do the build-back, so you will need to get a handy man to install new dry wall, etc.  Now that the mold is gone, his solution for the problem to not arise again was practical and cheap:  run a dehumidifier to keep the place clean.
2- Non-visible mold in kitchen:  Coincidentally, the weekend before Kurt was to come out for the above long-standing issue, I had a major water leak in the kitchen.  The possibility of mold never crossed my mind.  However, Kurt told me how water gets under the cabinets, will not dry thoroughly, and then grow mold from the inside.  I ended up calling my home insurance company, who resisted ripping out the cabinets.  Kurt fought them on my behalf and got them to agree.  I first had the cabinets removed by a different firm hired by the insurance company.  American Home Services then performed mold remediation similar to my basement - namely rip up the damaged items (floor boards in this case), use the mold cleaning solutions and then dry everything with huge dehumidifiers since the sub flooring was still wet from the leak.  I'm so glad Kurt kept pushing for this.  I had our inside air tested by an independent firm and it counted 9,000 spores 3 days after the water leak and 200 about a week later, after remediation.  If not for Kurt, mold would have been growing under all my kitchen cabinets.
In summary, Kurt and his team are extremely honest, very thorough and everything they do is of great quality.  Their cost was reasonable compared to the other quotes I got.
If you have mold issues, my first suggestion is to do something about it quickly.  It won't get better on its own.  Give Kurt and American Home Services a call."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Riverdale Park, MD

Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out, unusual noises from the tank, or complete heating failure. You might also detect a rotten egg smell, indicating a potential gas leak, or notice water that never reaches the proper temperature. If your water heater is over eight years old and displaying these symptoms, the gas valve is a likely culprit. Professional inspection is recommended, especially if gas odors are present.

Water heater gas valves are not universally interchangeable. Each valve must match your specific water heater's make, model, and specifications. Important compatibility factors include gas type (natural gas vs. propane), BTU rating, connection types, and physical dimensions. Using an incorrect valve can result in poor performance, premature failure, or dangerous gas leaks. Always consult your water heater's documentation or a professional plumber to identify the appropriate replacement valve for your unit.
