Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most common plumbing issue you see in older DC homes, and how do you fix it?
In many of DC's historic and older neighborhoods, we frequently encounter aging cast iron drain pipes. These pipes can corrode from the inside out, leading to slow drains, blockages, and even catastrophic collapses. For repair, our approach is tailored. For localized issues, we can often perform a trenchless spot repair. For more extensive problems, we may recommend replacing the affected section with modern, durable PVC piping. We provide a clear assessment and options, always prioritizing a solution that is effective and minimally disruptive to your property.
My garbage disposal stopped working. Can you repair it, or is replacement usually better?
We can almost always attempt a repair first. Often, a simple jam or a reset of the overload protector is all that's needed. If the motor has failed or the unit is very old, replacement might be the more reliable and cost-effective long-term choice. We'll diagnose the issue, explain the cause (like a worn impeller or a faulty seal), and give you an honest recommendation. If a new unit is best, we handle the installation, including proper electrical connections and ensuring your sink's plumbing is correctly aligned, all with upfront pricing.
I'm planning a bathroom remodel in my DC row house. What plumbing services do you handle for a project like this?
We can manage all the essential plumbing work for your DC bathroom renovation. This includes the removal and professional installation of new bathtubs, showers, toilets, and sinks, ensuring all fixtures are properly sealed and connected. We also handle critical behind-the-wall work like re-routing water supply and drain lines, installing new vent pipes, and setting up the plumbing for any new features. We work closely with you and your general contractor to ensure the plumbing phase is completed on schedule, meets code, and provides a solid foundation for the rest of your remodel.
