We hired Hicks Plumbing in March 2026 to repair a faulty pipe serving an upstairs bathroom sink after a leak caused water damage in our home. During that visit, Hicks recommended several additional plumbing repairs throughout our home that they believed would help prevent future leaks and water damage. Based on those recommendations, we authorized the additional work, including a repair to the water supply line serving our outdoor hose spigot. The total cost of the work was $5,946.25. Less than 24 hours after the work was completed, the repair to the hose spigot supply line failed, flooding our basement and causing extensive damage to flooring, walls, ceilings, and personal belongings. To their credit, Hicks initially accepted responsibility for the failed repair and assured us that we would not be responsible for the resulting damages. However, the restoration process revealed asbestos in areas that needed to be removed because of the damage caused by the failed repair. While Hicks paid for the asbestos testing, they declined to cover the asbestos abatement costs, despite the fact that the abatement would not have been necessary had their repair not failed. We were informed by Hicks' insurance company that their policy did not cover asbestos abatement and that payment would need to come directly from Hicks. As a result, we were forced to file a claim with our own homeowners insurance, creating additional expenses, uncertainty, and delays. What has been most disappointing is the lack of communication. After initially appearing committed to making things right, phone calls have gone unreturned and communication regarding resolution of this matter has been minimal. As a result of this failed repair, we are now thousands of dollars out of pocket and have been without the use of our basement for weeks. Our teenage daughter's belongings were damaged, sentimental items were destroyed, and much of her furniture and personal property remains in storage. We have been left coordinating multiple companies, all of which have been unable to proceed until responsibility for payment is resolved. This has resulted in time away from work, hotel stays during the abatement process, countless hours managing claims and repairs, and numerous unanswered phone calls. What began as a preventative plumbing repair has turned into months of disruption, expense, and stress for our family. Based on our experience, Hicks Plumbing did not fully stand behind its work when the consequences of its failed repair became significant. read more

So i thought that they were good as far as getting in quickly and doing the job efficiently however the price was outrageously expensive in my opinion. I needed a blown shark valve to my outdoor spigot changed out which they did and it was a pretty quick job, changed out to a ball valve however they charged me $425 and they were on my property for no more than 30 minutes. So they were quick to respond and did work fast but it came at a very high price tag and for that reason I don't think I would use them again. read more

It didn't take the repairman to fix the problem. Courteous, friendly, on time and reasonable.

We have used Hicks in the past and love them because they are quick, reasonable, and don't try upselling you.

I am truly impressed with their professional service. The technician diagnosed and provide a simple fix to both plumbing issues. I will use them again and give a high recommendation to my neighbors. read more

An unexpected plumbing issue can send the heart rate soaring. I contacted Hick's Plumbing and spoke to Christine. She is kind, professional, and upfront. She explained the diagnostic process and the cost for that service, which was a few hundred dollars less than a competing company. Christine was able to schedule an hour window of service (not the standard four-hour block) for the following day. Tony then showed up promptly, performed the work, and finished by billing me the exact amount discussed with no haggling or upselling. I recommend Hick's Plumbing to anyone that desires quality work and fair pricing. As Christine and Tony own the business, they work to make sure the client's issues are fixed instead of "lining their own pockets". It is refreshing to know that a trustworthy company like Hick's Plumbing operates in the Fairfax area, and I highly recommend Tony to anyone who has plumbing needs. read more

I called with a non-urgent need for a plumber. Within 15 minutes I got a text that Jason was just finishing up a job about 5 minutes away, and could he come right over. Jason diagnosed the problem quickly and was able to modify a part he had in his truck to fix it. Less than an hour after I called, the problem was fixed! read more

We can't say enough about Hick's Plumbing! We've used them twice now, and each time they have truly come to the rescue. Whether it was for a plumbing emergency or just a couple of quick fixes, their team was incredibly responsive and punctual. They arrived when they said they would, and got straight to work. The communication was excellent from start to finish. Mr. Hick's clearly explained the issues and what needed to be done, and the quality of their work is outstanding. We are so grateful to have found a plumbing service we can rely on. If you want a team that is professional, trustworthy, and gets the job done right, Hick's Plumbing is the one to call! read more

I recently moved to Vienna and upon encountering a few plumbing issues in my home, I wanted to hire a local company to come do the work. I stumbled on Hick's Plumbing, based right here in town. From first contact, Christine made me feel like we were having a conversation among neighbors rather than a business transaction. She was patient in listening to all of my issues, and was honest with her scheduling availability. She even recommended another local company if I needed the job done immediately. Right there, I felt a degree of integrity that made me want to work with Hicks. They even offered free estimates on the work! I had a tight work schedule and Christine was incredibly understanding and scheduled me for a timeslot. Tony showed up exactly when he said he would, and the service got even better from there. When I explained the issues, instead of just quoting me a price and then charging me a ton, he explained that all of the issues were things I could do myself and could save a few bucks on by proceeding that way. He even showed me how to do it! This level of service and integrity is unbelievable in today's corporate approach to everything. Hick's has earned my trust, my business and my recommendation to anyone that needs plumbing help. They are an honest, local company, and worth a call for your plumbing needs as well! read more

We have been calling Hick's plumbing services ever since we bought our house way back in 2009. They have helped us with everything from toilet's that won't stop filling and clogged sinks, to installing a new bathroom in our addition, installing a sump pump in our crawlspace, snaking our sewer lines and replacing a water heater over a holiday weekend (after ours ruptured unexpectedly). Pricing has always been fair. Even the emergency repair on the water heater wasn't as much as I was expecting! They have taken such great care of us that I recommend them to everyone I know! read more

I cannot say how amazed and happy I am with Hicks plumbing. Mr. Hicks is so kind and explains things so I can be reassured of the work he does. He always goes the extra mile, coming to fix something, often the same day I call. Thank you Mr Hicks for all you do, your kindness and knowledge is much appreciated. read more

Hick's Plumbing (Tony & Christina) are the absolute best and have been the ONLY under and above ground plumbing contractor that I will use for the past 10 years.

This is where HICK'S PLUMBING comes to the RESCUE EVERYTIME !!! Day, Night, Weekend, Rain, Sun or Snow, anytime we have had an issue from simple plumbing to complete underground sewer and water line repair or replacement Hick's has been and always will be the ONLY people I trust to have my back and tenants best interest at heart. Calling and using them will be the best decision you will ever make. read more

Responsive and reasonable. Hicks diagnosed and fixed sewage line issue at a fraction of the cost the big name company wanted. Highly recommend! read more

Highly professional and extremely easy to work with. From scheduling to discussion with technician, top notch service. Would highly recommend to others and will be using them for years to come! read more

I use Hick's both professionally and personally. As a property manager, Hick's is my go-to plumber for all level of jobs. They are particularly good with their cameras in the event you need to look deep into you home's drain lines for problems. I have used them for snaking clogs, new plumbing installation (toilets, faucets, spigots), repairing faucets, replacing mains (under concrete), and one particularly ugly situation in a small crawlspace fixing an improperly installed sump line that emptied into a sewer line. In all cases, problem fixed professionally. I also use Hick's for work at my own house. For other reviews that mention Hick's is expensive ... the only conclusion I can draw is that those people have never hired a plumber in the DMV. Our company uses no less than a dozen different plumbers depending on location and job (we manage 700 homes), and Hick's is very competitively priced and offers great quality. They are not cheap, but they are definitely not expensive for this area. Over the past few years, Hick's reputation has grown, and they can be very busy. The best way to get through in emergencies is to TEXT the office manager Christina at (703) 973-3012. Their time windows may not be perfect, but I have found their communication excellent. read more

Had an emergency with my mom on this Memorial Weekend. SATURDAY MAY 25TH, 2024. She's 86 and clogged her toilet with an item. We needed it ASAP because that bathroom is on the same level as her bathroom. They came quickly. Tony unclogged it in less than 15 min. There was an emergency fee but to be expected on a holiday weekend. But even with the fee, the total was affordable!!! read more

I've seen Christina's response. I made it clear in my review that I accepted the estimate, incorrectly assuming that it was a more complex and time consuming job than I had anticipated. It was not. It took an hour, for which I paid about $800 labor. In my opinion that is excessive. I'll leave others to make their own judgment. read more

These guys unclogged my sink with a $400 snake fee. It backed up again 6 weeks later. I asked if they could help me out at a reduced fee and they ghosted me. Ineffective work. Unresponsive. Expensive. read more

Really pleased with the service we received from Tony. He came quickly, diagnosed the issue, ascertained that it had already fixed itself, and did not charge us since he didn't have to fix anything. We really appreciate his customer-service mindset and will be sure to use Hicks Plumbing going forward. Thanks again! read more

Super quick and very knowledgeable! They came out for a free consultation and suggested a couple of suggestions to try first. Will definitely use them in the future. Would recommend! read more

Tony replaced an old tub faucet stem and swapped out a kitchen faucet. When the brittle, old refrigerator line connection started leaking, he came back - twice! - and ultimately put in a secure copper/compression connection at no charge. read more

very prompt service even though it was 10 pm. very capable and friendly. also very thorough. I would highly recommend this company.

Very grateful to Hick's plumbing for taking care of our plumbing issue so quickly and professionally! From the moment I called Christina, I knew that I was in good hands. She was very fast, empathetic, organized and kept me up-to-date. Kevin came onsite and was very professional to work with, friendly and patient. He was able to successfully troubleshoot our plumbing issue rather quickly! If you are looking for a plumbing company that is professional in their dealings, has high integrity, with skilled people that will go out of their way to provide you with the best service this is your firm! read more

We had a plumbing emergency early on a Saturday morning. My husband couldn't get our shower water faucet to turn off and I couldn't get our water main line to shut off either! I called Hicks plumbing and a nice lady on the phone said that Tony would be right over. He arrived about 20 minutes later! He was able to diagnose the problems and then run up to Home Depot and get the parts he needed to fix our bathroom faucet. He also fixed our water main shut off downstairs in our basement. Tony was super fast and friendly and extremely calm under the circumstances. I'm so happy that we found Tony the plumber! I highly recommend calling Hick's plumbing for any plumbing emergency that you might have. read more

I asked for services of Hicks Plumbing and was delighted that the response was so quick as I discovered that the affected toilet was continuously loosing water from a failure of a water level control valve. $200 was a fair price to pay but I was upset when quoted $450 for replacement off a shut off valve from the wall to the toilet. I was sorry I was not more assertive in saying no to that portion of the job as I noticed that that valve was leaking water on to the floor after I closed it off and then turned it on again. In my opinion this cost was way too excessive. I would not choose to use these services again read more

We had an emergency service ticket for a clogged drain at a children's school. After two other companies bailed on us, Hicks came recommended . Tony arrived quicker then expected and was very quick to determine where to cut our stack to resolve our clogged drains and restore normal operations Was he cheap? Not at all - But good labor isn't cheap, cheap labor isn't good- 6PM emergency service call taking him and his helper away from their families I am sorry but you have to pay for that- His prices were not at all unreasonable - You pay a premium for his skill, his availability, his truck stock and at the end of the day- you can either pay the premium or deal with a flood Glad we found him and will be using him in the future read more

Our new go-to plumbing company! Two other plumbing companies were unable to identify/address our plumbing issue. Tony Hicks assessed and repaired the problem in less than 40 minutes!

My main water supply line ruptured under my front lawn, and after hearing the good reviews and recommendations of Hicks Plumbing from my neighbors (who had the same problems in the past), I called Hicks early Monday morning. Tony Hicks came out to my home within 90 minutes, and gave me a quote that was very reasonable and within the price range I was expecting (it was also half of what another plumber quoted me). He promised to start work that day. Later that afternoon, maybe around 5pm, a 2-man crew showed up with a Bobcat. They worked till 1am digging, and cutting and pulling out the old water supply line from the curb water meter into my basement. They dug around and under our patio sidewalk, put back the mailbox, except for some dirt that needs to settle over the next several months; the landscape damage was negligible. The guys were very professional and courteous. We felt sympathy for them working into the night using lights from the Bobcat and flashlights to finish the job. I can't express my appreciation and commitment for Hicks to get the job done as promised. It was a relief to get water restored in time for Tuesday morning when the kids woke up. Highly recommended ! read more

I've used Hicks Plumbing Svcs twice now. Both times outstanding service, I highly recommend them. We had a years-long problem with a drain that we had snaked yearly to prevent backups. Hicks was the only plumber after all those years who diagnosed the problem correctly. He located the cause of the backup, not the symptoms. The second time was for something minor: a leaky valve. He showed me how to stop the leak and didn't charge for the visit, though I would have been happy to pay for time driving out to my house. read more

Extremely expensive. You can get the same job done for a lot less. I had a faucet in my kitchen replaced and was also hoping to have the faucets in my bathtub repaired as well. Technician told my husband he just needed to contact Kohler, order parts and he could fix it himself. First off, he told my husband to order the wrong part. I thought a plumber was supposed to be a problem solver. He was not helpful and I feel like we were overcharged for the work that he did and the time he was at my house. I will never use Hicks Plumbing again. Look around for better prices and a plumber that's interested in helping solve your problem and follow through. read more

The pilot light on our water heater, which Hicks had installed for us a few years back, went out and we could not get it come back on. Called Hicks first thing on a Monday and they sent someone out take a look during the agreed to timeframe, got the system heating and back online. The service was courteous and quick. read more

If there were more stars, I would go higher! My water heater died last night. I called Hicks at 10:00 am today and they were available to come at 11:30. They were on time, extremely nice and very efficient. They confirmed I needed a new unit and had it here, pulled the old one, installed the new one, and cleaned up by 12:15! I couldn't have asked for better service. Highly recommend! read more

I had a sink cut off valve that was leaking. I attempted to fix it myself but the old compression ring would not come off. Compounding the problem, when I put the old valve back on the compression nut cracked. Now I was stuck. I need it fixed so water could be turned back on. I called several "24/7" plumbers but none of them could help. I used the Hicks Chat Line and was connected with an operator who was able to schedule an appointment for that day. Tip: Just call the number because the chat function took a lot of unnecessary time. I was told the plumber would be at my house in 1-1.5 hours but he showed up within 45 minutes. Tony fixed the problem in about 20 minutes. He was very professional and did not mess around. I would use Hick again. read more

Hicks plumbing is awesome. They are prompt, courteous and excellent plumbers at a fair price. Highly recommend!!!!
