"I had an excellent experience with Outlook Plumbing and Drain Cleaning LLC. I called after 9pm on a Monday night and spoke to Joseph. Tuesday morning Sam provided an ETA and showed up exactly when he said he would. We’re so grateful they could come out on such short notice. From the beginning, Sam was courteous, respectful, and highly professional. He took the time to thoroughly assess the situation and clearly explained what the issues were, how they happened, and offered suggestions on repairs, including options to fix problems immediately, and what we may want to consider for the future. I appreciated his honesty and transparency; there was no upselling or pressure, just straightforward information and practical solutions. The repair quote was very reasonable, and his work was efficient and high-quality. I would absolutely hire Outlook Plumbing and Drain LLC again and specifically request Sam!"

For more than 60 years, ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing has provided the highest-quality basement waterproofing, crawlspace encapsulation, radon mitigation, mold removal and foundation repair solutions for homes and commercial properties. We lead with a promise of Trusted Five-Star Service, which means the customer experience is at the center of everything we do. Since 1958, we have been steadfast in keeping this promise and in upholding the values on which '58 Foundations was built: trust, teamwork, integrity, respect and communication. This comes across in all that we do: from the initial call to job completion, our customers are met with a knowledgeable, caring, and professional staff prepared to offer a five-star experience that is unmatched in the home repair industry.

"If you’re considering 58 Foundations, do yourself a favor and stop right now. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this company to anyone—let alone friends or family. Their complete disregard for accountability is nothing short of infuriating. At first, things appeared to go smoothly. The workers were professional, and the workmanship seemed decent. But the illusion of competence quickly disintegrated when it came time for the building inspection. The city inspector requires a letter from the project engineer verifying that the work is safe, sound, and compliant with code. 58 Foundations flat-out refuses to provide this basic validation of their work. Why won’t they stand behind their project? Are they hiding shoddy, substandard work? As a homeowner, I’m now saddled with the mess of an open permit and no resolution in sight. This is unacceptable. If a company won’t back their work with a simple letter, what does that say about their integrity—or lack thereof? Didn't expect this kind of run around from a well established professional firm, save yourself the frustration and inevitable regret. Choose a company that honors their commitments and respects their customers. Once upon a time, 58 Foundations may have been reputable, but their crumbling standards are now painfully obvious. Don’t let their negligence become your problem."

"Needed sewage pump replaced and line opened up. Called several others (Barr, A+,Fremyer, Comstock, Tri County) . None knew or cared what to do. I was told various things, call someone else or just ghosted. Powells took the bull by the horns. They tracked down the manufacturer of my old school system here in The Woods and with some detective work diagnosed and replaced pump without digging it all up. Two prior companies had said it needed to be dug up. If you have a REAL problem, call a REAL plumber!"

"Do not use this company. They installed a unit for me six years ago and when it had issues, they came to check it (after missing 3 appointments) and then entirely broke the unit. Tony, the tech, was really helpful. Ashley, the scheduler, was also really helpful. The others were not. I've followed up and have not heard back. I canceled my service package and yet they continue to charge me. DO NOT USE THEM. You will regret it and have more issues after they leave."

We are family owned and operated. We do not charge trip fees, service fees or dispatch fees. Estimates are free on projects in excess of $500.00. Licensed in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and WSSC.

"I was initially quoted $350 for a repair. When I called back, the front desk quoted $150, so I decided to go ahead and schedule. The technician who came also told me a service call is $150. However they insisted that I pay $350 because evidently, the person who quoted me $350 is the owner. I was disappointed with how rude he was on the phone and didn't even want to hear me. If this review is still up, he hasn't called me. Its clear their pricing is not standard and based on what they can get in a situation. I would avoid."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

DIY installation is sometimes plausible, improving efficiency and reducing expenses, but adherence to safety practices guarantees optimal performance.

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

Hard water doesn’t hurt, but it might feel more abrasive, especially if you have sensitive skin. It’s also about how your skin feels after bathing. You might feel as though you have a sticky film over your body because you do—it’s all that soapy residue left behind because the hard water can’t rinse it off completely.

Softened water prevents scale deposits, reducing appliance wear, leading to energy savings and longer-lasting household fixtures.
