    Should have checked the reviews here first. Called them for a one hour job to connect an under sink drain. Wanted $350. I'll pass

    Rick came to house yesterday to replace an old utility sink which was going to need some work. I…read moreunfortunately, bought the wrong hardware for the new sink. Rick quickly said he can look after that and I scheduled an appointment for the next day. This project involved several aspects of a plumbers profession (old pipes, drain that didn't drain etc.) and Rick was on top of it. Rick was pleasant, explained the process involved and completed the work efficiently. He left the area near and tidy. I am very happy with the completed work! Thanks Rick!

    Saved by Ehrhardt Brothers Quality Plumbing! (West of Baltimore, a.k.a ColumbiaPlumber)…read more Sunday evening, our water felt less hot than usual. Monday, it was only as warm as we keep the house, and only as much water as there is in the pipes! Our gas water-heater failed! Bad timing, too. Last week was what Chicago calls Fools'-Spring ... around 70°. But this week was back to Second-Winter, 30° (Mar 2026). And the next warm days, which Chicago calls the "Spring-of-Deception", is still ten days away. There was water leaking from the heater. This is considered the calm before the 50-gallon tsunami. If this is home-remedy advice, First call a friend who has successfully navigated this problem. Next shut off the gas and then the pilot. Next shut off the water inlet. Your friend will have at least one plumber to recommend. (They will enjoy that...) If your garden hose isn't frozen to the spigot, drain the water tank. If frozen, spend a sleepless night with the 24/7 plumber's number on speed-dial. We chose #2.  We made it through the night. Two of our friend's recommendations were small-businesses, our preference, and we asked all three for quotes and availability. Ehrhardt was ready to offer a price based on our descriptions and photos, of course with caveats for anything unexpected. I considered their bid to be a pretty-penny, but I'll say it was less than our friend's expectation, and more than our friend in Cleveland expected. A fair price. They came the next morning, and it might have been sooner if we had called right away. We cleared a path for them through the house, and they had the water heater replaced in 90min. Impressive. We went out for St. Pat's. But what we should have done was what they told us: check the pilot light for about 30min, and test the hot water after 60 to 90min. We came home to cold water. I'll admit some grumpiness. We called in the morning, and they came back in a jiffy (our apologies to everyone else who had appointments that day). In 30min, they figured it out: a faulty pilot in the new, just-unboxed water heater. They had a replacement part over-nighted. The next morning, in 30min, done. This time we did as told: checked the pilot after 20min (and nervously, an extra time again after that). Still lit! The second time we checked, the hot water outlet was noticeable warm. By 60min, hot water from the faucets! By 90min, much to relief of nearly everyone i know, a piping hot shower. AAAAAHHH :-) Ok, so how does three visits equal 5-stars! The hardest question answered first: Because the problem was the manufacturer's fault, and Ehrhardt handled it flawlessly: Excellent communication by Ehrhardt, priority attention to our problem, no excuses, just fast resolution. Great service staff, from the office to my house. Fair price. I admit that I'm writing this in the after-glow of that hot shower. This could be the start of a beautiful situationship.

Owner doesn't know to check the safety sensors manual reset button. Clearly a plumber not an HVAC pro.I disputed their fee w my credit card and won. Mistake to hire a plumbing company for boiler repair. DETAILS:  Despite warning the tech water intake valve leaks profusely, he turned on water w/o protecting the electronics below (see pic). Water spilled on gas valve & into the open service panel. Look at the mucky residue left on the electronics (pic). After he left the system would not ignite again! Went all weekend w/o heat (12deg).  Worried about frozen pipes I called office Monday morn. Office manager had no compassion for what we just endured. She was defensive right away and argued with me saying their tech "did not do anything to the system so it can't be their fault." With attitude she read me the service notes which clearly state he DID two things to the system. Then she weirdly repeated that he DID nothing to the system and accused me of trying to get a free boiler. The owner also made this accusation to my daughter. This was insulting and classless. I emphasized I was just trying to get heat, and I was still willing to pay them to repair the system, even after she insulted me. The owner came out w the tech later that morning. Spent 15min and couldn't get ignition. Later that day I spoke w owner and he offered me a refund. He later rescinded the offer! We had a real HVAC company come out and they pressed the manual reset button on one of the safety sensors. And it was up and running. We had them do the repairs and clean the heat exchanger, and it's running great. Does Metcalf Plumbing not know there is a manual reset button on boilers??? That's incompetent. Or did he choose not to press it in order to upsell us on a replacement???  Btw, the $12K quote for a 90KBTU (midsized) system was the most expensive in town.

This man will hustle and break his back to earn your business and build a relationship with his customers. He takes pride in his work. I cannot recommend this place enough. On a Friday afternoon, I reached out to ~5-7 vendors to assess a broken HVAC in a DC condo. Ricardo was able to come out IMMEDIATELY at 8PM on a Friday night. He did a quick dusting of the unit which hadn't been serviced in a while and even went to the roof as a part of his diagnosis. After sticking around for a couple hours trying to find the source of the problem, I was mentally preparing myself to pay a diagnosis and service fee, but there was no such thing. What signaled to me Ricardo was top notch was the fact that this man lives in Baltimore, easily a 50-minute commute from where I was in DC. He didn't leave until I was satisfied with his work until 930PM on a FRIDAY night. This type of service is difficult if not impossible to find. Ricardo patiently explained what the problem was, why I wouldn't have working AC after he would leave, and what my options were. He was very transparent with pricing, sent over a couple of quotes, and laid out what install schedules would look like depending on which manufacturer I went with. He and his team came in Tuesday and the install lasted about 7 hours. Fully working AC in less than 2 business days at a reasonable and competitive price. You cannot beat that.
