Consumer Comments for Alpha Plumbing & Heating

Consumer from BETHESDA, MD

We found a leak under the kitchen sink, so we had to turn the main water line off until we found the cause. However, guests were due in six hours and we had no water for the toilet, showers, kitchen, or anywhere in the house. Very stressful. Alpha sent Michael, who was knowledgeable, courteous, and fixed the problem in only 21 minutes -- much less time than expected! He also installed a new valve so that I can turn off just that valve if I ever need to in the future -- without having to turn off all water in the house. Our house has old copper pipes, so that was very thoughtful. We were very impressed with Michael and with Alpha Plumbing. They came within less than two hours, fixed the problem expertly and quickly, and charged the agreed-upon fee. No surprises. We would definitely recommend Alpha Plumbing and their plumber Michael.

Jimmy, owner of Alpha Plumbing, picked up when I called on a Friday at 7pm, which says a lot right there. I described flooding in the basement (fortunately on a porcelain tile floor), and he rightly suspected a frozen pipe. I'd already turned off water main and he advised turning on extra heat in the area. He and a staff member came the next day, Saturday, and quickly fixed the pipe which had been all wrong from previous owners. He recommended a sensible solution to relocate the waterlines to keep them from freezing again. Jimmy is an experienced expert, was upfront about a reasonable weekend rate, and did the job within the first hour rate plus a few inexpensive parts. It was also a pleasant transaction. I'll definitely call back for the suggested work, and I recommend this company highly.

We needed an emergency replacement of a leaking hot water heater. The owner came to evaluate the old heater within an hour of our call and provided an estimate to replace it. They replaced it the next morning. They used solder-free connectors for the new install. The workmanship on the install of the new water was excellent. The installation passed Rockville City inspection without any corrections needed. Was very impressed with their professionalism and quick and thorough response. They also fixed several other minor issues at nominal cost while they were here.
