**** IMPORTANT UPDATE **** About 6 weeks later, the water heater stopped working one morning and I had no idea why. I called Angel and he was at my house immediately within 20 minutes. He checked some electrical things and then was on the phone with his electrician for more details. Not much could be done that morning, but the electrician was able to come over to check things out that evening once he was free. After further investigation, the sub-panel providing power was working fine but the water heater control panel was not working properly to send electricity to the heating elements. Jovani (the electrician) and Angel contacted the manufacturer of the water heater the next day and had a replacement part overnighted. The part came the part came the next day and Jovani installed it and all was working with the water heater again. Upon further investigation, the water heater began to slowly stop working due to the power outage in DC caused by the blown transformer at RFK stadium about 2 weeks before it stopped working completely. All in all, Angel and Wall to Wall construction responded to my emergency immediately and worked quickly enough to solve the problem. We were only without hot water for approx. 2 days. I will definitely hire Angel and Wall to Wall again and again because of the knowledge they have, the trustworthiness of the entire company, and because they stand by the guarantee they give on the work they do!!!

We hired them to clean our two chimneys and at this time they recommended that we install sterling silver linings in both of our flues due to a fire hazard. Based on the information provided to us by this company, we decided to install a sterling silver tube in our downstairs chimney/flue. The company spent almost 10 hours installing the sterling silver tube on January 13. That evening, our boiler shut off and the radiators turned off. We had no heat. The next day we paid for an emergency visit by a plumber, who told us a carbon monoxide sensor in the boiler was triggered and recommended we contact Priddy Clean Chimney Sweep. It turns out that Priddy Clean Chimney Sweep was completely negligent in recommending the installation of a lining in our flue because they cut off the exhaust pipe of our boiler. As a result, we spent three days without heat in January due to our legitimate fear of carbon monoxide poisoning. When Priddy returned to fix the problem, they ended up hitting some pipe that flooded our basement (our tenants unit). There was about an inch of water in our tenant?s bedroom. They spent all day working on the issue and never found a solution. They just pulled out the silver lining and left. The problem was that our house is 115 years old and at one point was heated by coal, resulting in the boiler venting into the chimney flue. A competent chimney company would have checked to ensure that this was not the case before installing a sterling silver lining that created a serious hazard to our home and health. Even though Priddy Clean Chimney Sweep refunded most of our money, we still felt at a severe disadvantage after spending three days with no heat and paying for a plumber to come out. I would highly recommend not using this company. They created a dangerous situation that resulted in us being in fear for our health, our home, and wasted over 20 hours of our time."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/md/beltsville/priddy-chimney-solutions-reviews-162748.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Stevens Co","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"VA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Deborah G."},"reviewBody":"Robert Jackson from Steven's Plumbing was professional, thorough and honest.

"I called to get an inspection done on my AC unit and was quoted $90 for the inspection plus $120 an hr for ADDITIONAL hrs. I ASKED when do I know when the “additional hrs start”, He stated that the tech would let me know once the inspection was done and then at that time he would let me know if there was work that needed to be fixed or if there was nothing then the service would end and I would only have to pay the $90. They charged me $210 for the inspection. I called and requested that we both listen to the call (Because all calls are recorded) They played the call, heard what the rep said and then stated they would get back to me. When I finally reached them again (they never called me back), they stated I would not get a refund, then replayed the call cutting out the part when the rep stated clearly that the service was only $90. They not only GASLIGHTED me, but they altered the recording. $120 may not matter to most but it sure matters to me."

"We bought a new construction and McCrea installed the HVAC. Home inspection identified the heat pump was not working in Oct. 2020. McCrea identified it was due to leaking refrigerants and promise fixed the issue. Our electric bill was extremely high the following two months and the heat pump was not cooling in Spring 2021. McCrea sent technician and again repaired the system. Bought their maintenance plan. We had 4+ repairs plus regular tune up in the past two years. Last week the heat pump stopped cooling again. We are out of labor warranty and charge us with $89 diagnostic cost after membership discount. It took three days for them to send someone to check while we suffering 90F in our house. They identified the compressor dead and need replacement. They charge $1900 for labor after membership discount. Most likely cause of the compressor failure is "suicide" with assistance. Low refrigerant at beginning and over change in later repairs likely contributed the short life."

Plumbing Heating Companies questions, answered by experts
The time it takes to fix a burst pipe depends on the location and severity of the problem. A minor burst can be cleared up in a day. But if more than one pipe burst or cracked, or the source of the burst and leak is more complex, it can take a week or longer for a licensed local plumber to fix it.
The most common types of backflow preventer devices depend on the purpose of the installation. For example, Portland.gov states that the double-check valve assembly and the pressure vacuum breaker assembly are most commonly used in irrigation systems, while the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) states that double-check valve assembly and the reduced pressure zone assembly backflow preventers are best for fire protection systems.
Ask a plumber for recommendations on the best backflow preventer device for your home.
Pipes most often burst during winter and early spring because those seasons experience the coldest temperatures that can freeze pipes. Pipes typically begin to freeze when the outside temperature falls below 20 degrees Fahrenheit—but it’s not a hard and fast rule.
The largest risk is any period of time when outdoor temperatures fall below freezing for six hours or more. That’s an average winter night in many areas of the United States, so it’s best to take precautions before winter begins, like insulating your pipes.
Replacing a toilet takes two to four hours. Several factors, including the condition of the old toilet and flange, can impact the installation time. Inspect the flange for cracks, chips, or other signs of damage. You can reuse it and the bolts if they’re in good working order. If not, you’ll need to purchase an identical one and install it before attaching the toilet, which adds time. Be careful when moving the old and new toilets—they’re heavy, so it’s best to hire a pro to get the placement right.
Recaulk your toilet at least every five years. If you feel like your toilet is getting wobbly before that, it still might be time for a new caulking. Never directly place new caulk over existing caulk because that doesn’t produce lasting results. Also, caulking over existing moldy caulk does not kill out the mold by suffocating it, so if you have mold, be sure to get rid of it before recaulking.
