I was surprised that most plumbers would only replace a hot water heater if one was purchased from them. The reason given was that they could not guarantee the hot water heater unless it was purchased through them. When I asked what was the brand name they sold, several of them replied with the exact same brand/model number that I bought through my connections - but they still would not install that same heater. (And surprise surprise, their prices ranged from $230 to $415 more than I paid for the same heater. After talking to four A-rated plumbers in the area, I found F J Hooks who had no problem installing my heater, at a price that was $50 less than their nearest competitor, even those offering an Angie's List discount. They even offered to go to my supplier and pick up the heater for me, but I had already arranged delivery. An appointment was made for two days later. Unfortunately I was unable to keep the appointment and they graciously rescheduled for a few days later - to show up between 10 and 12. At 9:20 on the morning of my appointment, I received a call saying they were on the way. Jesus and his assistant arrived, removed the old heater, installed the new one, and were finished around 11:00. I was told I would receive the bill in the mail. I left on a business trip and returned 17 days later. The bill I received was for $525 - $75 more than I was quoted. And it was due on the day I opened the mail after returning home. I called the office, left a voice mail - and within 10 minutes I received a call back. I was actually in their driveway to drop the check off when the call came in. I went into the office, showed the invoice - and without any dickering, the invoice was reduced to $450 paid in full. Apparently the additional charge came from upgrading from a 42 gallon to a 50 gallon heater. Would I use them again? I'm already looking at projects for them to complete - converting a wood burning fireplace to gas, rerouting a water line for a refrigerator ice maker, installing a new dishwasher and gas stove, etc ?. as $$ become available. They've become my go-to plumbers. Friendly and professional all-the-way.

There was no one answering the phone in the office until more than 15 minutes after they opened (it was still forwarding to the answering service) so that's the reason for the B rating I gave in Responsiveness. They charged me $1944.00 for a new 50 gallon propane water heater (includes all charges and installation). Today, my mom checked prices out of curiosity, and found a similar one at Sears - she priced it with installation and old water heater haul-away (to make sure it was an even comparison) to see how much they charge. The online estimate was $1075.00. I can understand there being a price difference for using a private company rather than going through something large like Sears, but almost double the price??? When I called the office to ask about the charges they told me that propane water heaters cost more (the estimate from Sears was for a similar propane water heater). I asked how much they charge an hour for labor. The woman on the phone said that they don't itemize - the charge included everything and isn't broken down. I am so disappointed because I really thought the company would do right by me because this is still a small (but growing) town, and I trusted that they were at least competitive in price. I wish I'd checked Sears and Home Depot before I bought the water heater from Rapidan Plumbing. I am willing to pay a hundred dollars or even two hundred dollars more to use a private company for such a large purchse, but almost double the price is really disappointing. I feel very cheated and feel like I was taken advantage of, and wish that I'd checked around instead of trusting them. The serviceman was great, which makes it even more sad that I plan to never call them again because of how much they took advantage of my trust and my pocketbook. Note: I listed N/A for quality because it was only installed a few days ago. I have had no issues yet, but 2 days isn't a very long time to know the 'quality' of the water heater and service yet.
4/13/2013: Even after bringing the significant price difference to their attention no price adjustment was offered (we found many other prices that were significantly less expensive)... I did not want them to come down to the less expensive prices we found, but thought they might at least come down a few hundred dollars. They did not. I hope that they reconsider their prices at least for the benefit of future customers, and offer them a more 'fair' price considering the local price for the work done."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/va/fredericksburg/rapidan-plumbing-inc-reviews-2001751.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Farrell Plumbing and Heating Inc","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"VA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Lauren H."},"reviewBody":"Replaced our water heater.

"Needed to replace a 25+ year old HVAC system in the coldest months of the year, so I contacted Advanced Environment Solutions for a bid. I worked with Tammy at AES to schedule the inspection, follow-up, etc. - a fantastic employee. Courteous, professional, and really knows her stuff when it comes to HVAC.

Plumbing Heating Companies questions, answered by experts
The most common reasons a toilet won’t stop running are a faulty flapper or fill valve, improper fill height, or incorrect chain length. Luckily, all these issues are relatively easy to fix with parts you can find at a local hardware store. You can also call a plumber or toilet repair professional to solve the problem.
A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.
Yes, many people choose to bury their sump pump discharge pipes. When you leave the pipe visible in your yard, you might trip over it or accidentally damage it with your lawn mower. Plus, from an aesthetic perspective, hiding the discharge line underground looks nicer than leaving it out in the open. Before burying a sump pump pipe, review your local building codes to make sure your installation is compliant.
Trenchless sewer replacements are actually a great solution for sewer lines located under concrete. A professional can still sleeve and burst old piping to make room for a new one without having to dig up your slab.
Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.
