I had a freeze-proof faucet that leaked and needed replacement. I called and Renee was here in less than an hour - He readily answered my questions, recommended a replacement brand, and texted (and emailed) an estimate. He was able to schedule an appointment that was convenient for me, and his two colleagues came right on time. They did a great job in installing the faucet (and showed me where the problem was with the old faucet). They did need to cut some drywall (inside a closet) but did so in a way that it will be easy to patch. They were courteous and did a good job cleaning up. The price was reasonable. I'd recommend them! read more

They cancelled the first appointment then didn't show for the second appointment. I would not recommend them.

Was able to respond in a couple days for a leak contained inside the wall water, or they would have responded faster. Repaired the initial leak on first visit, but found a couple more to remediate, including a sewage drain pipe (You can call it an "upsell") One of my issues were they ended up replacing about 16-20 feet of copper pipe (cold and hot) with PEX-A (plastic) pipe for a quoted price of $3500, that I ended up paying. The other issue was there was not an itemized bill for the work; just quoted $3.5k as a flat rate without a reason behind it. read more

These guys were great! Came out early on a Saturday and knocked it out the repair I needed at a reasonable price.

Great to have someone who knows tankless water heaters! Did a good job! He is now my go to plumber!​

Rene and his helper Brian are great. On time, good work, fixed the problem fast. Left the area nice and clean. Cannot ask for more. Rene was actually my plumber years ago when I had a different house, with a rather large reno. I had lost touch with him. So happy to have found him again here on Yelp. I will be sure not to lose his contact info again. Every homeowner needs a good plumber! read more

We had a serious leak and R-Plumber sent a perfectly nice person, but not a licensed plumber. (He was, he explained, "working under my uncle's license.") We discovered that only mid-way when a big hole was already made in a ceiling. The owner did come out when we complained, which was the right thing to do. However his estimate of the cost of the repair was twice as high as what we ultimately paid someone else to do. read more

They installed a new faucet and replaced a cold water valve for my sink in under a. They were friendly, efficient, and relatively affordable I'd definitely recommend their services. read more

I woke up to half of my basement flooded and out of panic - started looking for plumbers with good reviews. R-plumbing came up as one of the businesses I called and Rene came so super quick! He also didn't leave until he fixed the blockage (why my home was flooding) and was so kind and professional! Definitely recommend his business and saved the number for any future calls! read more

Rene was super responsive to a water heater leak on a Saturday morning, communicating via text before arriving so I could share pics of the problem. Thankfully it was not a big issue and resolved very quickly, appreciated his understanding of the issue and explaining the fix to me. Plan to use him in the future! read more

R-Plumber quoted me 1500 to gap my kitchen stove gas line in changing over from electric. One other company then quoted me 275, plus the permit cost, which is under 100. Another also quoted 275, plus permiting costs. read more

Replaced water heater. Did not give good estimate. Was too expensive. Would not discuss issue. Must not be interested in building a business // just one off service. read more

Rene gave a fair quote for replacing the water heater. He provided all the necessary details, was on time, and was easy to communicate with. Luis and Walter came to do the actual replacement. They were on-time. They took care to protect the house. They did exactly what Rene described in the quote. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I would definitely use this company again and would recommend R Plumber to friends and colleagues. read more

Rene did a fantastic job for the plumbing problems I was experiencing in my townhouse. I have been renting it out and the tenants have a very high household usage, so we had to replace two sink faucets and rebuild two toilets. Rene did extremely high quality work for a very reasonable price. I had previously been using another local plumber (highly rated on Yelp), so I initially called him for a price quote. His quote was completely outrageous for the work involved, but what really killed the deal for me was that he spent about two minutes on the phone with me and tried to brush me off quickly after he gave me the quote. Rene, on the other hand, took the time to speak with me and truly understand the problem first. He then asked (I didn't even offer) to see photos first to make sure that the problem was as he expected (the waterfall faucets were clogged and needed to be replaced, it's a common problem). I sent photos and videos and he took the time to examine them first before giving me a quote. He then also make some faucet replacement recommendations, including a website to purchase them off of (build.com). In addition to this stellar customer service, he was able to schedule me in very quickly and he was always accessible over the phone. He is polite, knowledgeable, and treats people with respect. I highly recommend using R-Plumber and Rene and I will definitely be using him for all future plumbing needs. Thank you again, Rene! read more

Rene did a fabulous job, was so reasonable (and gave me an accurate quote before starting any work) and was so personable as well. We had a major pipe issue and he reconfigured the replacement pipes in a better set up than the originals. SO grateful to have found him! Don't hesitate to call him!! read more

I called with some questions about a weird plumbing situation in an old 50's house. I do most of the plumbing myself in our house but we have an original floor drain that ties in with the foundation "weep tile" and then goes into the sanitary sewer. The week tile had tons of critters growing in the old seemingly inactive pipes and I wasn't sure if it would be safe to cap them. Rene stopped by after working on another job and was able to talk me through what the pipes (used to) do and whether or not it would be safe to cap them. We wound up not needing any work and he had a solid recommendation of how to deal with the inactive pipesqq aww a read more

A+++++ Service. 5 Stars for sure. You should definitely check them out. I am so glad I've taken my time to find good, honest, trustable and fair plumbing company, and I finally found this R-Plumber company. A few months ago, my place had a water leak in the shower on upstairs bathroom and it caused ceiling damage, etc. so I needed to a ceiling drywall repair, bathroom tile repair, CPVC pipes reconnect, water pressure reducer install, etc. I took my time to compare various popular local plumbing companies in the DMV area and this is, by far, the best I've found due to many reasons: 1. They are licensed, bond, and insured -- They sent me a copy of their license, bond, insurance, and worker compensation. This gave me a relief because I wanted to make sure I hire a professional. You'll need it in case if anything happens. 2. They really care about you and HONEST -- Rene, Luis, his apprentice, and other staff use the best brand and told ,e really honest and professional opinion. I have a limited budget and they told me I can just fix the issue for now. The other companies recommended me to remodel the whole bathroom, which would cost at least $4,000 or much more. 3. Their price is VERY REASONABLE and FAIR -- They do not overcharge at all in compare to other companies in this area. I compared 6 other plumbing companies. Other plumbing companies seem to take advantage of you especially if you don't really know much about plumbing. They either: - could only offer to fix the plumbing and I had to find my other contractor to repair the tiles and dry wall - offer me to fix this issue for $4,500 or more - R Plumber offer me about 40-50% less than other companies. - another well known company (they were featured in local Costco) gave me a price to fix my sink popup assembly for about $700 but I went to home depot and bought the parts myself for $17. 4. They really guarantee that they carry their work by the correct local regulations and to the high standard. -- you can see the photos for reference. - I ASKED them a lot of questions and researched the way they do they work online and everything seems to be done very correctly (e.g., using the right glue, chemical for connecting my CPVC pipes, copper pipes) - They went above and beyond in installing my water pressure reducing pipe by anchoring my water supply pipes so it doesn't get shaky. - They have 1 year labor warranty. Their shower MOAN is lifetime warranty on parts. In fact, I am so impressed that I literary have to write my appreciation on various social media in a hope to help others who are in the same situation as me. This company doesn't spend on marketing but just spend on high quality so I'm really trying to help get this company to top review to help others who are in the same boat. Best wishes to you guys who are looking for a good plumbing company. This is some company you should consider. read more

See all

Finishing the dishes after dinner and turned on the garbage disposal. When I ran the water afterward, it backed up into the sink. After hubby used our very small snake and was unable to clear it, a sense of dread set in. This problem occurred Thursday evening and seemed that it would be more than a quick snake of the pipes. Using the Yelp feature that sends messages to local (in this case) plumbers to get someone out to the house (we were scheduled to go out of town Friday afternoon), Rene reached out and was at the house by 10 AM. He had to leave after a couple of hours for another job, and returned Saturday with his brother to replace the problem pipe (side note: we live in a town house. The person who designed the plumbing failed efficiency and logic 101.) Several cuts in the drywall and a spliced pipe later, we had water. We decided to replace the entire routing of the pipe from kitchen to street with wider pipe and scheduled Rene to come back in a few days. We had to go out of town on a family emergency and Rene had the added burden of moving all our bicycles and stuff in the way, since we could not do it. No complaints. We also hired them to restore the drywall and paint. Excellent work! You cannot tell anything was ever cut. When we redo our bathrooms - I know who to call. These guys are great AND affordable. read more

More than happy with their service! They respond quickly, arrived on time, very friendly with all the Covid safety mesures. Luis explained different options. They took baby steps to see if they could fix it before doing a big work (opening our ceiling). The price was great, and we can call them back if there is still a problem. Our house is old with old pipes... I recommend this company highly and will call them back next time! read more

I have used R Plumber since 2019 from when lived in our townhouse...first time I had issue with water leak from upstairs bathroom and water leaking onto living room ceiling...other plumbers were quoting me higher pricing. R plumber did a superb job and their quote included sealing the ceiling drywall section that needed to be removed to access plumbing pipes. 2nd time around, now in our single family home, I had an issue at beginning of 2022 with upstairs shower plumbing pipe Leaking water onto kitchen ceiling. Once again, R Plumber send their top plumber - Luis - and he did an outstanding job removing one tile from recently renovated master bathroom without damaging tile (we didn't have extra tiles since we had recently moved in and prior owner didn't leave spare tiles). Fortunately the tile price was salvageable and the leak was fixed and I was able to use same tile to seal everything back. Third time, my water heater valve and water pressure Valve were replaced since it was time to replace due to age of water heater and issues with water pressure. Once again, R plumber did a great job and came back after installation within a week to ensure pressure issues I had previously were gone. Highly recommend R Plumber for any plumbing issue! He's is honest and if they can't do the work when it's non-plumbing issue they will recommend other reliable contractors. Hard to find reliable and honest contractors. read more

Good service and good price for tankless hot water heater service. Very friendly as well.

Very helpful for installation of new gas line for an outdoor grill. Quote was straightforward, they handled all permitting and coordination of inspections, and the work was performed in a timely, professional manner. Would recommend Rene and consider working with him again in the future. read more

Who wants a visit from a plumber on Xmas day? No me, but when you have a toilet emergency you need R-Plumber . . . not Rudolf the Reindeer. R-Plumber (Renee) arrived 45 minutes after I called and replaced the faulty shut-off valve to stop the flood, so I could wait until Dec. 26 for them to install a new toilet. Excellent job! I am so thankful for their responsive, courteous and professional service. Highly recommend!!! read more

Rene and his team ran a gas line from my meter to the back of my house. Total run was about 100'. Everything about the job was smooth and professional. Rene was able to come and provide me a quote quickly. He gave me instructions on how to get an upgraded meter from Washington Gas. He and his guys worked very hard in the hot sun digging the trench and installing the new gas line. They were all very polite. They obtained all the permits and completed the inspection with WSSC. Now we are grilling with fire thanks to Rene and his team. read more

I truly can't say enough wonderful things about Rene and his crew. We've had them out twice to do work for us - the first time to replace a drop in sink. The sink project ending up being MUCH more complicated than we expected, the crew must have spent nearly 10 hours working on what should have been a pretty straight forward project. They truly went above and beyond to get the project done right for us. By the end of the day they felt like friends! I couldn't thank them enough for everything they did, and for very reasonable rates. The second time they came out and replaced several of the shut offs for our hoses and the shut off on our water main, and replaced a shower valve that had gone bad. I am always totally blown away by their professionalism and work. We plan to use them again when we remodel our kitchen to relocate a sink and and repipe some work that was done incorrectly before we moved in! We have our plumber for life!! read more

As first time homeowners, we were hesitant to begin the process of converting our electric stove to gas. After careful research and based on the reviews, my husband hired R-Plumber for the job. Well, suffice to say we now have permanent plumber! Rene and his crew were awesome! Professional, extremely knowledgeable...we had no idea of permits and inspections, but Rene did. The job was completed when they said it would be, at the price they quoted. They even went out of their way to assist us in working a solution to a problem that arose when we installed our new cook top (our fault, the size of the cook top was off; the installation was perfect). Then, when they were finished installing the gas pipes, I was impressed again by the patch job on the dry wall...it is barely noticeable! A little paint and no one will know any work was done. We already have plans for more jobs with them. I absolutely, highly recommend you hire R-Plumber for ALL your plumbing jobs. You will NOT regret it. read more

He was easy to schedule and arrived right on time, easily diagnosed the problem with the drain for our clothes washer and ended up only charging us a reasonable service call, which was really nice.

Very professional and did good work. Fairly priced. Hooked up a gas line to my fireplace and did some water pipe repair. Will use again.
