I needed an utility sink hooked up and a steam attachment for my dryer. Dan went the extra mile and made sure the sink was level and properly fitted. He walked me through the whole process of what he was going to do and it was awesome. He further helped me to understand how some oft he things worked in my new home as it was a new build's and I was unfamiliar with a lot of the nuances of the water tank and associated items. Thanks DL for making me smarter!!

Everything was electronic, confirmed via email and text and the receptionist was polite and friendly. They told me who the plumber was in advance and sent a picture of him and he called when he got close. As a woman who was home alone, that's a great safety feature so I don't let a predator into the house thinking it's the plumber!!! The plumber himself was respectful of my house, polite and friendly to me and did the work needed on the spot and had all the materials in his truck. The best part, he emailed me a detailed invoice of the work and took my payment on his iPad right then. I will absolutely work with them going forward!!!!!!

Throw a rock near Culpeper, Virginia and you'll hit a landmark of Civil War significance. Thanks to…read morea non-profit that fights to preserve the country's earliest memories, Cedar Mountain Battlefield is a place for all to visit for free. Stopping by while at a nearby cabin, here's my experience: 1) Parking: Follow the signs to free parking near the visitor center. By the picnic table in the yard, you'll see a trailhead with maps and info on the battlefield. Follow the trails to find old gravestones and places where the battle took place. 2) Points of Interest: Markers along the trail talk about the significance of the battle. Confederate General Stonewall Jackson drew his sword during this battle for the only time during the Civil War. It was also his last battle led by him. 3) Amenities: There are benches along the trails looking out over the fields. Two cannons can be seen near one field with two outhouses nearby as the only restrooms on the grounds. It is worth noting that three historic markers put up by the Culpeper Calvary Museum clearly glorify the Confederacy over the Union. Even though erected almost 100 years ago, the fact that they remain standing shows the gap between an equitable society in this country.

They also charged me for cleaning. When the heating season came, I had the gas turned on, I called C1 again to get my boiler turned on. They still couldn't bug quitedc me to replace both valves for $4k or get a new boiler for $8500. OHA was the second company came to give me a diagnostic. Mr Bryan discovered that the water pipes were completely empty and found a spot on the radiator where the pipes were disconnected. No wonder the boiler won't turn on! However, OHA doesn't repair radiator pipes so he left me this valuable information without charging me a penny! I found a 3rd company came to repair the valves and saved thousands from the 1st company. Forever thankful for Mr Bryan!

But our most recent experience reminded us why we trust this company so much. On a Saturday night around 8 p.m., we discovered a leak on our main level--every homeowner's nightmare. I was terrified we wouldn't get help until the next morning. Instead, dispatch quickly sent Eric, a capable, kind, and highly skilled plumber. He was thorough in finding the source of the leak and stopping it, and he did so with a calm professionalism that instantly put us at ease. I've been a fan of Marine Plumbing for years, but I have no words for how much it meant to have a well-qualified person show up exactly when we needed help the most. Their reliability, expertise, and genuine care for their customers continue to set them apart. Highly recommend.

Outrageous pricing!…read more If those two words are not enough to begin your search for plumbing services elsewhere, keep reading. I was called by Michael and Sons to see if I wished to schedule a plumbing inspection as part of our maintenance package. I said "no," that I would like to get a quote on installing a tankless hot water heater. The same model they recommended cost half that at a big box store. The gas permit charge is $400 through them. Madison County has a rather opaque system for determine plumbing permit charges which means if I get the permit myself, it will be between $75 and $310. I'm willing to pay a convenience fee to have a project done in one fell swoop and won't comment on this charge. What I will comment on is the price for labor alone -- approximately $4200 with our Gold Discount of $600-$800, meaning that a first time customer would be out approximately $5000 for the labor of one skilled plumber. I was told that M&S need to block out a time frame from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM -- nine hours assuming their man takes an hour for lunch. I told the scheduler that I don't think an admittedly-skilled person is going to take nine hours to install such a device and estimated out loud that that is around $500 per hour. After trying to deflect my assertion, I was somewhat-disingenuously told that there was no per hour rate and that such calculations cannot be made. But after a little back-and-forth, my numbers were generally-confirmed. You are welcome to do the math and try to get your mind around the actual number of man hours involved. A lot of you out there pay for such services after refinancing your houses and don't spend much time thinking about how much such projects cost because you are awash in cash and have projects that have been nagging you for years. Or the plumbing company can give you easy credit. Slow down! And one last point I wish to make is through an experience I had years ago when replacing a gas water heater. Can't remember the company, but I got an outrageous estimate, but from an honest plumber. He told me people in Woodbridge have more money than sense; that the job would take him two hours or so; and that after looking at my workshop, he advised me to do it myself. I did. It took around three hours and his quote was for around $1200.
