The Honest Plumbers of Fairfax, VA

I called a plumber in Fairfax when I realized a tankless water heater that had started running noticeably slower wasn't going to fix itself. He flushed and descaled it and ran a flow test when he was done. He recommended an annual descale going forward given the mineral content of the water around here. I've already passed his number to two people on my street.

I've been in Fairfax since 2023 and I had to deal with a water line to the refrigerator that needed to be run this year. It took about 45 minutes. He ran a new line from the closest supply valve and finished it neatly and walked me to the shutoff before he left and made sure I knew where it was. I was bracing for a bigger number on the bill and it was reasonable.

I had a shutoff valve under the bathroom sink that wouldn't close all the way at the house and went with the Honest Plumbers who work in the Fairfax area. He replaced it with a quarter-turn ball valve and explained that those older compression-type valves tend to do exactly this as they age and there's not much of a repair for it. The whole thing took about 20 minutes. I had no complaints, which honestly is the best I can say about any contractor.

I called a plumber in Fairfax about a toilet that had started needing two flushes to clear that had been getting worse for a couple months. He cleared a partial blockage in the trap. Checked everything else while he was in there and said the toilet itself was in fine shape. I've had plumbers show up two hours late before. This one was on time.

I called the Honest Plumbers in Fairfax when I had a persistent sewage smell coming up from the basement floor drain come up. He diagnosed it immediately as a dried-out P-trap. He showed me how to keep water in it so it doesn't dry out again between uses. I noticed he cleaned everything up before he left, which I genuinely appreciate.
