We promise accurate quotes that don’t change, and offer an on time service guarantee, with exceptional communication. Our company is committed to being as environmentally friendly as possible by utilizing multiple donation and recycling centers.

"Everything went very smoothly. Sam, the plumber, and is highly professional and knowledgeable. He replaced 3 faucets, 2 sink plugs, two valves, and two supply lines. Sam inspected the p traps, and he added adhesive where it was necessary. Sam also took a look at my two year old hot water heater, and he assessed my water supply to this unit. We discussed performing a complete drain, and check of the components of the heater at a later date. Sam also advised me that a toilet in the basement should be replaced with a more updated commode. We rarely use this toilet, but it's 35 years old. I felt comfortable speaking with Sam. I did not sense he was doing a sales pitch."

Len The Plumber, LLC. is a leading plumbing and drain company serving Central Maryland. Our certified professional plumbers are available same day to assist residential customers in Anne Arundel County, Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Carroll County, Cecil County, Harford County, and Howard County. Our knowledgeable plumbers have years of experience dealing with a wide variety of plumbing issues including plumbing repairs, drain cleaning, water heaters, well systems, heating systems, sewer, water, and gas lines. We’re open 7 days a week with no extra charge on evenings or weekends!

"UPDATE: My previous review still stands from a couple years ago for that specific plumber only - but my most recent experience has been a nightmare. Will never recommend this company ever again. They definitely have changed since my last experience. Not only did the plumber they sent (12/9/24) not do anything to make any effort to clear a clog ( I won’t be petty and provide a name, even though I should) - after signing agreements and I asked if I should pay now -he said I probably should so he could get started - I know I should’ve just sent him on his way, but wanted to get this fixed (astronomical for what was -or in this case wasn’t done- and was told that prices had gone up a lot since my previous experience). He also had to inform me that normally they send the new guys to do this type of work ( implying unclogging drains was beneath his “expertise “). Then proceeded to tell me he was convinced it was a collapsed drain (after snaking the drain for less than a few mins)and that I probably had water flooding under the foundation said he needed to get a hold of their camera guy to be sure - he went to his truck to call him came back in, about 20-25 mins later to tell me he couldn’t get a hold of their camera guy and left a message for him. He then said he would try one more time with the snake - did the same amount of effort as the first time and said we would have to wait until he could get a camera down there and that we would have to let the drain dry out a bit so it would probably be the following week. Packed up his stuff and said I should call him in an hour to see if he heard from the camera guy (why should I do the calling for follow up??) When he left, he seemed to struggle backing out and damaged our lawn (have security camera footage). I called the company the next day and was sent to voicemail (left a message that said I had some concerns but didn’t leave a lot of detail) and was told that I should hear from someone that day - I did not. Called the next day and was told by the supervisor of the phone people that the phone person should have told me it was 24-48 hours before a manager would respond and she would not allow me to speak to anyone else. I did not hear back from anyone in 72 hrs, so I called back and then was told that the manager was out (conveniently). I gave up calling them and called another plumbing company who fixed the issue in a short amount of time (no collapsed drain, just a good ol’ clog). Decided to call Len the Plumber one more time ( 12/23/24) 2 weeks AFTER my original call and was told that there was a note in my file that said the mgr did call 3 days prior to this call (there had been no conversation or missed calls or voicemail received by me - so either he called a wrong number or this was a lie) and in the notes the mgr (Brian, I was told by the phone person)stated that I was told about the pricing and that was it. Not sure where he got his information of what he thought my issue was, since I didn’t leave a lot of info when I spoke to the phone people other than it was frustrating to be told I would get a call in 24-48 hrs. This last phone person said she would send an email to all managers with my concerns and would hope someone would assist. No response. (12/28/24). Think twice before using this company. It has changed ownership twice since the original owner- history has shown as ownership changes in companies , so do priorities and not to the benefit of the customers."

Boiler repairs FAQs

The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.

It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.

The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350
