Get matched with top drain pipe installers in Gainesville, VA

"I came home from work to find our 40-gallon water heater was not working (it was working that morning). The pilot was out and I could not get it re-lit (I do know how to light a pilot) After checking a number of companies on Angie's List, I contacted DB's Plumbing and Drain. Although it was almost 6pm, a very nice person answered the phone and I explained my dilemma. I was told they could send someone that night but would have to charge an after-hours rate. I was reasonably certain what was wrong would not be a simple fix like re-lighting a pilot so scheduled a visit for the following morning between 10 am and 12 noon. Michael D arrived shortly after 10 am. He was very courteous, polite and professional. Before entering my home, he donned a pair of shoe covers which was kept on as long as he was in the house. He diagnosed the problem as being a failed main burner system. As the water heater was 14-years-old, I weighed the cost of replacing just the main burner system on such an old unit against replacing the unit itself. I opted for the water heater replacement. Michael setup the old unit to drain while he went to retrieve the new one from their warehouse which took him about 45 minutes. Upon his return, he removed the old unit and cleaned up the area. He then cut back the existing copper lines to eliminate the numerous soldered couplings from the previous homeowner's repairs. He installed new copper pipes including a new quarter turn shut-off valve. A catch pan was placed and the water heater setup in it. Up reconnecting the gas line, he installed a sediment trap or drip leg (it did not have one previously) which catches sediment sometimes present in natural gas. After bringing the system online, Michael checked the gas line connections for leaks using a detection monitor. The installation was clean and neat and it is obvious Michael is conscientious about his work. Always interested in how things in my home work, Michael was very gracious in answering my questions regarding the installation. I am very happy with the install.and would like to thank Michael for his professionalism and the education."

"Fine. I could’n get the old parts out which is why I called in a professional. They gave me a flat rate for the install in advance and that is what the job cost."

"My experience with this company was great. I was able to tell them my issues and they gave me several options. Ultimately we went for the full French Drain system. Everything was done on time and the estimates were very fair. Warranty on the work is great. I would call them again if needed."

""After 15 years of enduring water and flooding damage to our yard and the foundation of our house, and after trying various 'solutions' from well-intentioned landscapers that never truly resolved the issues, we ultimately decided to engage Drainage and Erosion Solutions. We required comprehensive flood control and damage mitigation, and their expert team skillfully implemented swales, dry creeks, catch basins, and channel drains in areas where water management was critical. They also replaced a water-damaged window well, removed a flagstone patio to install drain basins and drainage pipes, and flawlessly reinstalled it. The supervisor and crew displayed remarkable knowledge, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to detail throughout the entire project. This system has been operational for several months now, and even during the most intense rainfall, which historically led to road flooding, my house and foundation remain dry. We enthusiastically endorse this company without reservation.""

"Extremely excellent.. The service was good since 2008. They did excellent work. They repair the problem issue by installing a inside french drain and a sump pump. Which correct the problem at the time. The costing was reasonable and except able. And in addition to that courtesy and professional. And very clean after finishing work."

"I had a house fire and the fire department damaged the panel while putting out the fire. In one day Beacon got a permit pulled, new panel installed, and power restored to the house so my pipes wouldn't freehand repair work could be started. Great company."

"Had an emergency as hvac unit started flooding basement. David Cannon came out from John C. Flood immediately, and cleared out the blockages to the pipes and drains, plus explained in a very easy way to understand about how often the filter needed to be changed with a new dog in the house. He was extremely knowledgeable and worked quickly. I will be calling John C. Flood again, especially knowing they are available 24/7 and knowing how competent their specialists are."

"I closed the deal with Julian on late Tuesday night and the team was able to do the installation the next morning! Jesse gave me the details on the team as the ink was drying. They arrived on time first thing in the morning. Dan, Cal and Greg were a great team that stayed active all day. Seriously over 12 hours! They installed a new Hot water heater and an 18 Seer Lennox Heat Pump with Honeywell Humidifier and Honeywell Home Thermostats. My 17 year old system was tightly packed into the basement. I think the basement was built around it. They replaced everything...ducts, hoses, fuses boxes, wires and pipes. Everything was insulated and finally brought to code with new sensors and alarms. After working all day, they ended the evening cleaning up and taking me through the system in great detail. It has only been a couple hours but everything is running great. I talked to several vendors when making my choice. I liked several of them and they dealt with my silly process. Julian was very thorough with his pitch. He told me about the factors that differentiates them from the others. I believe I made a great choice. Merry Christmas!"

"Dave and his team did a wonderful job with a new trench and drain system. He tied in 5 new downspouts to the new drain and re-attached and cleaned out a few more downspouts ensuring my home will remain dry during the wet weather. The job was done on time at a fair cost. Excellent communication and overall job well done."

"My recently-purchased townhome in Reston backs to woods and the unfenced backyard was a *mess* with overgrown weeds & bushes, rampant poison ivy, and many fallen trees. My husband and I wanted to transform it into an area where our dog could roam free and we could make use of the space too. First step was to clear everything out, and then we planned to install a fence. I initially called ET Landscaping and Lawn Care for a quote just to clean out all the weeds, bushes, poison ivy, fallen trees, etc. Julio was happy to come out to provide a free estimate, even with COVID-19 going on. When Julio arrived there was some standing water from recent rain and he explaned that we'd have some drainage & erosion issues if we cleared everything down to bare earth and left it like that while we formulated a plan for sod, mulch, landscaping, etc. After a few more visits to discuss options -- first with me and then with my husband too -- we ended up getting a quote that included labor & materials for: yard clearing, removal of a few dead and/or heavily leaning trees, installing a French drain through the wettest area, re-routing PVC drainage pipes to the edge of the yard (originally dead-ended in the middle of the yard), about 600 square feet of sod, 30 cubic yards of mulch, and 160 linear feet of board-on-board fencing. While it was more than we anticipated spending on the backyard at this time, we felt we were in good hands with Julio & felt his price was fair. From contract signing to job completion was about 6 weeks. However, most of this time was waiting for wood! Due to COVID-19, there is a significant shortage of pressure-treated pine in our area & Julio had a really tough time finding enough wood for our fence from a single supplier. He kept me informed at least weekly (sometimes more often than that!) about his search. As soon as he confirmed that the materials would be available within the following 2 weeks, his landscaping crew came to do their portion of the work. The four-man landscaping crew was here 3 times: one day to clear the big stuff; another full day to clear all the smaller stuff, install the french drain, lay the sod, spread the mulch, etc.; and another few hours on a third day to finish up. The following week, his fencing crew (3 men and 1 woman) completed the entire fence in one day! Both of his crews worked quickly but didn't rush. Our yard looks so much better!! Julio and his landscaping & fencing crews were all friendly and knowledgeable about the work they were performing. They truly are professionals! I left them to their work while doing other things around the house or working from home. I never had any concerns about whether the work would be done how I wanted it or whether they were doing a good job. Also, we are not an end unit and the only way to access our property is through the yard of one neighbor who hates people walking through his yard. Julio had his crews use a pathway that was less convenient & not as easy to get materials/tools through, but disturbed our neighbor a little less. Thank you Julio!"
