Company Overview

If you require a top-notch plumbing service in Washington, DC, contact Ruth Plumbing, Heating & Cooling. We prioritize detailed and prompt service.

Founded in 2004, we have evolved from standard operations to a licensed and insured business. I am proud to be a journeyman plumber and gas fitter.

During my teenage years, I became intrigued by the dripping water noise from the bathroom. I questioned my parents about the unaddressed issue, they explained that calling a plumber was too costly. Determined to solve it myself, regardless of their concerns. Following numerous efforts, I succeeded. Our neighbors and family learned about my efforts, and I was acknowledged for my work. That day marked a turning point, I decided to dedicate myself to the plumbing profession. I made it a point to provide free services to seniors and family, and to charge a minimal fee for those who could afford it. Eventually, I enrolled in a class and joined a union, gaining valuable practical and theoretical insights. I strive to provide the community with honest, proficient, and quality plumbing services, ensuring that every job is done right the first time, while working with passion.

I had my flue pipes rerouted and graded properly. Prior to the fix, the pipes were sagging, and were angled incorrectly thus retaining water. This resulted in my furnace shutting down during cold temperatures. So far, it's been over a week since Mr. E rerouted and properly graded the pipes. I have noticed significant improvement in the efficiency of my furnace. What I equally appreciated from this company, besides their good work, is their professionalism and courtesy. Mr. E was respectful, fair, patient and answered all my questions.

Have used them twice for HVAC service. They answered my call promptly and were at my property within hours. They are very reasonably priced and perform quality work. My HVAC was back to normal within hours.

We've had Ephrem from Ruth Plumbing replace two water heaters, one in our DC rowhouse and another in our previous Arlington condo. The rowhouse water heater replacement also involved a bunch of plumbing work in order to install a washer/dryer in the adjacent closet. Ephrem was easy to work with, we felt the prices quoted were fair, and we've been consistently happy with the results.

Great service. Super responsive and charged a fair price. Really flexible for me as I was working to repair an issue for a tenant from abroad.

Called 8:00 PM 1.3.17, a cold night. Heat wasn't working. Were told we'd have someone come by within 2 hours to check on a furnace. No one showed for roughly 2.5 hours. We called a few numbers and were told no one could make it out, so sorry. No call to inform us, no explanation, just a cancel nearly 3 hours later on a cold cold night without the courtesy of a phone call to explain why.

No thanks.

Heat went out. Ephraim was here in a little over an hour. Had heat about 40 minutes after that. I will suggest them to everybody

Today is the third time I've used Ruth Plumbing. Ephrem is on my speed dial now: Consistently better rates and very professional work and service. I sincerely appreciate the extra effort they take to keep my house clean too. They lay down blankets and use disposable booties in your house to avoid tracking dirt in and clean up afterwards. Best plumbers in DC, IMHO.

Great work!! Ephrem is an amazing plumber & HVAC man. He come out to our house back in July in middle of the night and fixed our AC unit. We was so great that we called him again for major plumbing issues in our bathroom. The man works like a charm without digging deep in your pockets.

I had a terrible experience with them diagnosing my HVAC yesterday! In addition to the language barrier making it extremely difficult for the service representative to follow my directions regarding entry into my condo building and unit, he also tried to charge $945 for a leak test that most other vendors charge $200-300 for. Total and complete waste of my $95 diagnostic fee!

I called to have a faucet in my kitchen replaced. I though overall it was great service. Very efficient, helpful and reasonably priced.
