"I had a great experience with ARS/Manassas thanks to John Curry, their knowledgeable and professional plumber. John provided an in-depth home inspection of my plumbing and educated me on the importance of venting my sinks to avoid moisture buildup, mold, corrosion, and bad odors. He also found that one of my toilets needed a new flapper valve/lift rod and corrected me on how I was using my garbage disposal, advising me to only use it for light particles stuck to my plate. To assist with the upkeep of my plumbing, John recommended that I buy a drain cleaning kit and even called his dispatch to schedule another member of his team to repair my toilet's lift rod. John Curry's expertise and helpfulness were much appreciated during the home inspection. He was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough in his work, and he took the time to educate me and provide valuable advice. Thank you, John Curry and ARS/Manassas!"

"The gentlemen were very polite and respectful. They came out the same day for an emergency (a severely clogged drain), which was very much appreciated. However, the problem was not solved, despite assurances that it was. A second company came out and found a piece of an old plumbing snake that had somehow been stuck in the pipe, which was causing the clog. The second company believed that the piece should have been able to be detected (and removed) by Sewer & Drain Specialists during the first check, as it was very large. I am not a plumber, so I can only go by what they tell me. I hate leaving anything but glowing reviews, but it is also important to note when things don't go quite so well, to hopefully avoid the same problem in the future, as it did end up costing double what it should have to fix the problem and almost a week of extra time without working toilets/showers/etc."

"Slow draining tub, a toilet that just won't flush, and some back flow when using the dishwasher left us thinking we just had a major clog. To our surprise, it was a collapsed sewer line that needed to be replaced. While there was a 1 week wait due to the time of year and the demands they were expecting, we were more than happy to wait the week. Work went quickly and smoothly, and was far less intrusive than we anticipated. Their staff even wore shoe coverings when coming into the house! Only some minor clean up work was required once they left, which appeared to be an oversight when they cleaned up. Everything else was back to normal after they left and no problems since."
"First off, thanks to Rocco, owner of company, for working around my crazy work hours, rotating morning, afternoon, nights, as I do all 3 shifts at my job. Very considerate he was. Highly recommended this company for all your home construction needs!!!! Rocco initially performed an evalution inspection of scope size of my bath job. He was super knowledgeable and thorough. I was impressed. I then compared between 3 estimates and since Rocco was squared away, knowledgeable and first back to me with estimate, he stole the job right away. Approx 50 hours on my jobsite was put in. Rocco first stripped 3 walls of old wallpaper, then smoothed, mudded, sanded, cured walls, followed by 2 coats of Kilz primer, 2 coats of paint to finish the walls and ceiling. Did paint 2 bath doors as well. Great finished paint texture. He kept clean throughout. Next, he removed old ceiling fan exhaust and installed new fan with a light on it. Inspected attic as well. Then removed 2 old hanging vanity lights on chains & hooks. Filled ceiling, wall holes with mud, sanded painted over to match rest room. He then installed subfloor plywood and topped floor with vinyl 12" x 12" adhesive tiles. For added securing, he used tile glue as well. Next, he lined baseboard trim molding, all pieces cut to fit. Rocco suggested beautiful wainscoting on 3 walls and then installed that and finished wall trim around top & corners. Again, cutting to fit. Caulking around all molding, trim, shower base, etc, was very neat and done well. Rocco then removed and disguarded my old sink with vanity, and old 2 piece toilet. Next, he installed new vanity cabinets topped then with new sink. He caulked sink top securely to walls & vanity. He installed all plumbing, valves, water lines and sink faucet. Ensured no leakage as well. Next, he installed new one piece toilet with new water line and valve. I was pleased when Rocco also removed electric baseboard heater, dissembled heater sections and spray painted all heater pieces to match room. Lastly, Rocco installed 2 new light/fan switches and GFI outlet. Followed by installing beautiful nickel finish 3 lamp vanity light fixture over and centered over sink. Final touch was the installation of a heavy vanity mirror, secured and centered over sink to my liking!! Was so happy with that light fixture and mirror and Rocco's attention to details installing both. All throughout Rocco and I kept good communications and Rocco was very considerate, laid back and added timely ideas and suggestions. He replied immediately to all my calls, emails, and texts. I take away his company is very professional and highly capable of major house construction work. So happy and very pleased with Falcone Construction Inc. Thanks Bro!!! "
"The pipes in my house would rattle everytime I ran water. Every sink and the two toilets would cause a rattle from somewhere deep in the house. Mr. Machen and an assistant came out within two days of me calling and had figured out what the problem was and had it fixed within a half an hour. The city had been working outside on the water lines in the street and I pretty much started having problems around the same time, but I didn't think they were related. Once I told him about this, he made some adjustments and the rattling stopped! I was very pleased. "
"Fixed shower but stated Toilet not on work order but suggested remedy. To keep in mind: If you need more than one thing done, Be sure to specify on initial work order as they will only do what is on work order from AHS"
Yes, flushing a clogged toilet can make it overflow. While flushing the toilet may push enough pressure through the system to dislodge the clog, this is unlikely. Your best bet is to use a plunger and hope the suction can break up whatever is blocking the pipe. If this doesn’t work, use a plumbing auger or call a pro to help.
Yes, you’ll need to replace your toilet’s wax seal any time you move the toilet. This is because movement of the toilet will break the seal, rendering the remaining wax useless. Thankfully, replacing a wax seal is fairly easy, and the seal itself only costs $2 to $10 at most home improvement stores.
When replacing a wax seal you typically also have to replace the closet bolts that secure the toilet to the flange. These are usually about 2.5" - 3" long and have to be cut once the toilet is secure. Cutting them usually makes them too short to reuse.
The average cost to replace a toilet seal ring is around $50 to $200 if you hire a pro to do the job. If you do it yourself, you’ll only need to pay for the supplies. Wax rings alone cost anywhere from $5 to $25 at hardware stores and can save you a lot of money compared to having a professional installation. At the same time, a licensed plumber knows how to properly install your new wax ring to prevent premature issues down the line.
Yes, you can fill your toilet tank manually to help it flush, or you can pour the water directly into the bowl to flush it manually. This will work for the majority of toilets, as most use a gravity feed system. However, you should only ever use this as a temporary solution. If your toilet tank isn’t filling, you should find out why. First, make sure the speedy valve connected to your toilet and your water main are open. If that doesn’t solve the issue, call in a professional to address the problem.
Depending on the type of renovations needed, the cost to build an ADA bathroom ranges between $700 and $8,050. On average, most homeowners pay around $4,375 for this remodel. This type of remodeling requires following strict ADA accessibility guidelines to ensure a universal design.
