Genevie Plumbing

We have worked with Genevie for many years, both in ur home in Accokeek and here in Waldorf when we moved, and found them to be terrific. Quick response, personable and efficient service and reasonable prices. Always dependable. I recommend them without reservation.

We had a dreadful problem with another plumbing company that got their snake stuck in our sewage line. They quoted us a price of $9600 to excavate and remove the snake. Nick, from Genevieve Plumbing, was able to squeeze in an extra appointment on the same day. He even made a special effort to do this so I would not have to pay the after hours rates. In no time at all, Nick was able to retrieve the snake. The cost was less than $700 and I'm not sure how they knew to give me a military discount, but I am military and they did give me that discount even though I never asked for it. This company from the first person I spoke with, who was Linda, was professional, thorough, efficient, and KIND. We have lost this value in business as bigger businesses have taken over. I would implore you to are use this company for all of your plumbing needs!

As before, it was a very pleasant experience and now I have three new valves, can shut of my main water supply (!) and there is water and ice coming from the fridge. I'm a happy camper. Nick came early so that was nice also. Yup, I now have a ""most trusted and reliable"" plumber.

I don't know why they aren't rated higher! These people are really good!! Will was our tech and he was friendly , courteous, and professional! He got here on time and went right to work! I am glad I waited for the appointment with them!

I wanted to update this but got busy and forgot. In hindsight, the previous review that I gave was way overkill. I actually got the opportunity to meet Mr. Genevie after and he explained the charges and why they were necessary. Ultimately, it wasn't his fault that I didn't know that I needed the heat running before de-winterizing my property... yeah stupid me. Would definitely recommend these guys.

They charged me over $500 to install a new kitchen faucet (that I already purchased) and snake a bathroom sink. And because I'm a woman they thought it okay to rob me. I wrote to them asking for half the money back....Women: beware!

They fixed the problem but I believe I was severely overcharged. I had low water pressure and my hot water heater stopped working. My house is about 5 1/2 year old. I was told the water pressure valve was bad and the part would cost $150. Then he went ahead to clean out the water heater in hopes that it would fix the problem, which didn't. I was charged $380. He then ordered that part and told me he was able to get the parts for the water heater for free because it was barely out of warranty and that he would need to come back to install the part for another $165. I ended up paying $545 to replace a water pressure valve and to replace parts in my water heater. They fixed the problem, which I think any plumbing company could have done, nothing out of the ordinary. I WILL NEVER USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN and I do not recommend this company because they are over priced which to me is scamming desperate people out of their money. You only get one chance to scam me. Never again! I wished I saw the other reviews.

We called Genevie Plumbing for several problems: a nonworking faucet as well as a nonworking garbage disposal, and installations of two toilet seats. Nick and Will arrived on time and quickly resolved our problems. They were so efficient! Better yet, the price we paid was LESS than what had been originally quoted! Thank you, Genevie Plumbing, for making our life much more pleasant!

Called them about a stopped-up bathroom sink. They came by, added some fluid(note that I had already tried Roto-Rooter and a snake, but they didn't work), cleared out the stoppage(10 minutes max), then, Wham-bam-thank-you-mam - $150 for labor?, $50 for PARTS.
In addition, there was a leak under the same sink, which they didn't even check. I ended up doing the plumber work after the plumber left.
My wife called them to let them know(not irate, just FYI for future) that they should check for leaks also(more $$ for them, right?). The actual plumber called back and was completely irate with her.
How can I put this plainly - There are lots of good plumbers out there, which these guys are not.

The work performed, which was the replacement of an exterior hose bib, was fine, but I was way over charged.

The time spent actually on my property replacing the hose bib took just over an hour, but I was charged for a total of 2.5 hours (@ $150/hour) due to the company's policy to charge the customer for the plumber's travel (at the full rate of $150/hr) by starting the clock once the plumber leaves his previous job. On top of that, there was a $100 'ARRIVAL FEE' for the appointment. Neither the cost for travel time or arrival fee were disclosed when the appointment was made with the owner several days prior, or when the plumber arrived before the work began. What frustrated me was that I had no control over where the plumber's previous appointment was, and even before the plumber had even arrived, I was on the hook for $250!!

I did contact the owner of the company to confirm the company's policy on charging travel time, and if it was true, how I witnessed the technician spend about 10 minutes smoking before coming to my door (while I was apparently on the clock). The owner said he was only responsible for booking the appointment and not what occurred during the appointment, what the plumber did with his time, or what he ended up charging for time/travel (since the owner was not actually there to witness it). He did offer to split the travel cost with me.

I will not be using this company again, and recommend anyone who does use them make sure you get an agreement of their costs before setting any appointment.
