Our team is composed of dedicated, full-time professionals known for their technical expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to exceptional customer service. All consultations, assessments, and installations are performed by licensed experts—including soils engineers and landscape and drainage system designers—who bring decades of combined experience in design and construction. Clients trust DES for our reliability and results, leading to a strong referral-based business and consistently high rankings on contractor-rating platforms.

"I highly recommend DES! I arranged a consultation after a home inspection report indicated that there was moisture in our basement walls. I was worried that costly mitigation efforts would be required. A friend who had previously used DES for a basement water problem highly recommend them, telling us that they were an honest company that only does what is necessary to solve a problem. Happily, Mark Fine from DES inspected both our basement and our exterior grounds and reported that there was no indication of cracks in the foundation or water intrusion, and that no work needed to be done. It is so refreshing to have a company that doesn't try to sell expensive services when they are not necessary!"

"I’ve been a loyal Snell customer for years, but this recent experience was deeply disappointing. After our AC failed in August, Snell diagnosed a leaking evaporator coil. We chose to replace the system through them, and the salesperson took time to evaluate the setup in advance. However, on installation day, the crew arrived without the correct ductwork and had to make adjustments on the fly. Unfortunately, the adjustments were poorly executed: • The Aprilaire humidifier was mounted on sloped ductwork rather than a level surface, contrary to manufacturer specifications. • The hole for the humidifier was cut inaccurately. • The drain line was left kinked in multiple places. Aprilaire support later confirmed the humidifier was not installed correctly and warned this could lead to water backing up into the system — a concern I had raised with the installers before they left. Despite multiple follow-up attempts, I received no meaningful response. I was told my concerns would be escalated, but no one followed through. This was a major investment, and I now feel I need to bring in another HVAC team to correct issues that should have been resolved from the start. I’ve recommended Snell in the past, but I can’t in good faith do so now after this experience."

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts

For plumbing in Fairfax, regular maintenance is key. Homeowners should check for leaks and test shut-off valves monthly. Each season, flush the water heater, inspect sump pumps, and winterize outdoor faucets. Annually, arrange professional drain cleaning, water pressure testing, and inspect pipe insulation. Following this routine helps prevent plumbing emergencies, ensures compliance with local plumbing codes, and extends the life of your system.

Helpful?

Common mistakes with plumbing work in Fairfax include skipping required permits, failing to follow Fairfax County plumbing regulations, and attempting complex repairs without proper expertise. Mixing incompatible pipe materials and neglecting to insulate pipes in basements or crawl spaces are frequent issues. Overlooking high water pressure can also cause long-term damage. Consulting a licensed local professional helps avoid these pitfalls and ensures safe, code-compliant results.

Helpful?

For plumbing work in Fairfax, PEX and copper piping are preferred for water lines due to their reliability in local freeze-thaw cycles. For sewer lines, PVC is commonly used for its durability and ease of repair. Choose fixtures rated for hard water, and consider high-efficiency tankless water heaters to handle local demands. Sourcing materials from reputable local supply houses ensures compliance with Fairfax plumbing regulations and long-term performance.

Helpful?

For plumbing work in Fairfax, you'll generally need permits from Fairfax County Land Development Services, and projects must comply with the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Most plumbing permits are required for new installations, major repairs, or water heater replacements. Inspections are mandatory at rough-in and final stages. Always verify requirements with both county officials and the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation to ensure full compliance.

Helpful?

Fairfax's cold winters and humid summers significantly affect plumbing work in Fairfax. Freezing temperatures can cause pipes to burst, especially in uninsulated areas, so pipe insulation is crucial. Spring and fall are ideal for major plumbing projects, as milder weather reduces risks. Scheduling work outside peak summer demand helps secure local professionals and prevents delays, while winterizing systems in autumn can prevent costly emergencies.
