Excellence Plumbing

Caleb J.

I hired Excellence Plumbing because I had a leak in my ceiling and thought that it was coming from my upstairs bathrooms. They suggested it might cost $150 to fix a leaky toilet. They came out and agreed it might be the toilet valve and flapper in both upstairs bathrooms, but also my tub needed to be recaulked. So they charged me $425 to replace both valves and ""caulk my tub"". This was the worst caulking job I have ever seen - I could have done a better job myself. They didn't even bother to remove the old caulk, they just recaulked over some of it and did a terrible job at that. See the attached photos. I asked for a receipt breaking down the labor and parts because that seemed incredibly high for what was done and they refused to provide one for over a week. They came out to ""re-do"" the caulking job and again did a terrible job. I was then told that they didn't really do caulking and that this was just a courtesy. Yet a courtesy that they charged me an arm and a leg for. Incredible.
I again asked for a receipt and he said he would email me one and drive off. They also said my water pressure was probably just a city issue. I spoke to my immediate neighbors and their water pressure is fine. So it was clearly a plumbing issue. These guys are ridiculous. Did a terrible job and gouged me.
[edit: STILL NO RECEIPT! $425 for two toilet valves and a terrible caulk job on part of my bathtub]

I hit the jackpot when I found this plumbing company. Jay, Steve and Jeremy came to my home and fixed a busted pipe and snaked a clogged drain all within one hour. This team of professionals have great personalities, are highly skilled and are very affordable. If your choose to use them, and you should, you won't be disappointed with the outcome.

Absolutely fantastic experience. The reviews are true. I needed to have a replacement done pretty promptly as I was without water in my home and had to temporarily relocate to a hotel. With the headaches that come with major repairs in the form of insurance adjusters & contractors, I can't tell you how relieving it was to have such a smooth experience with Excellence Plumbing. This company is aptly named and comes highly recommended! Many thanks!!!

At a total loss of words for the positive ratings. My introduction during a call last week was ""I am a master plumber, I build houses."" Three days later reached out to see what the problem was concerning the lack of courtesy in either being interested in the job or not. Informed misunderstanding on communication. Eight days later no response. Please use Roto-Rooter. At least your call will be returned and you know where you stand. Good luck master plumber. Are you licensed, bonded and insured within the District of Columbia. Can your credentials be checked? The ""master plumber"" did not even know the Foggy Bottom area, which is three blocks from the White House. Best wishes Capitol Hill on having a ""master plumber, the one and only,"" in your neighborhood. Gardez bien.

Super prompt response. Steve and Jay came in, figured out the problem and fixed it right away. Beyond fixing the toilet that we were having problems with, he checked the others too. Great job. Thanks!

This guy is great he gave me instructions over the phone, I see why all the great reviews. This is without a doubt the best plumber in the entire DMV area bar none. The service is beyond excellence he took time out his busy day to help me over the phone with my toilet leak. This guy is the best!

Wow, these guys are great! We needed to have a Water Heater replaced in quick order. I called and they came out the same day, happens that this was a rarity since they're usually very busy with appointments but I'm glad I was able to catch them. They were very knowledgeable and requested that I call the original Water Heater manufacturer to diagnose the problem...this seemed weird at first but that goodness I did as they told me. Come to find out the manufacturer informed me that the existing heater was vented improperly and I would need to get a short model water heater and replace the unit as they did not recommend repairing. After providing them with this info, they came the same day, replaced our water heater and had someone haul away the old one. Never had such a seamless same day experience. Money well spent!

Steve and Jay came by early one morning to fix a cracked pipe in our old rowhouse that had been leaking for weeks. They were fast, friendly, and fairly priced, and they did great work. Would definitely use these guys again!

Steve and his colleague did a great job at the house! We needed to have the faucet replaced and the excellence plumbing team went above and beyond to find and install an affordable faucet the same day.

Would recommend to anyone looking for an honest, skilled and cost effective job.
