Wacker Plumbing Inc

Plumbing, Kitchen and Bath Remodeling, Water Heaters,

About us

Wacker Plumbing was established in 1984 in the basement of a townhouse. It has grown from one man fixing faucets to one of the finest plumbing and remodeling contractors in the Northern Virginia area. Thanks to our loyal and competent staff, we will continue to grow and offer quality service at competitive prices. Our service staff has over 90 years combined plumbing experience. We pride ourselves in being honest and up front with our customers. Unlike some other companies who use "flat rate pricing", we still charge time and material for most service calls. The flat rate always has to be figured on the worst case scenario. We are only going to charge you for the time we are at your home. There is also never any travel time or trip charge. We feel this is the most fair way to charge our customers..

Description of Work: Gave us an estimate over the phone for a new Apollo hot water heater (the hot water heater also provides heat to the condo unit). While we did not go with them (used a company we had used before), Wacker was VERY responsive to all my questions (called a few times), thorough and professional.

Description of Work: We had a leak in our bath tub faucet, with screws stripped, needing new stems. They were courteous, when we called. They arrived right on time, and were professional throughout the visit. |We have used them for several projects. They have even given advice on how to complete DIY projects, with no sales pitch to have them come and do it. It's located near us, so easy to go directly to the business location. |I feel that they strive to give good customer service and be professional at all times.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for $39 for a plumbing service call because we had water leaking and over flowing from the bathtub upstairs. We had our overflow gate repaired last year. He said that we did not need to repair our overflow gate in our bathtub, but put less water in the tub. I thought that was great advice at the time but it did not resolve the issue. I thought the technician was very courteous and had good customer skills, but he did not solve our problem.

Response from Wacker Plumbing Inc
I don't believe that we are the company that you are reviewing. We do not offer a $39 Big Deal and I do not show that we have been to your house for this problem.

Description of Work: Tub and shower in guest bathroom had never had good pressure. We had another plumber (MY Plumber) try, unsuccessfully, to fix the problem last year. Problem actually seemed worse after he worked on it. We rarely use the bathroom but had guests coming in this weekend, and in preparation, discovered that, not only was the pressure terrible, but that there was no hot water at all. We called our regular plumber, Wacker Plumbing (not sure why we tried a different plumber last time. Live and learn, right?). Wacker sent someone out the same day. He discovered that the pressure problem was because of solder caught in the line. He thought it had probably been there since the house was built and may have even gotten pushed into a slightly worse position when the previous plumber turned the water back on after trying his fix. The solder was in a very difficult place to reach and he thought for a while he would have to cut out some pipe and replace it in order to get the solder out. Fortunately, after numerous tries, he was successful. Unfortunately, there was still no hot water. He discovered that the ball (likely replaced by My Plumber) had broken. He'd never seen one of that design and said it looked like, even when new, it wouldn't last more than a year or two. He said normally (assuming the typical design), these almost never break, and because of that, he didn't have one on his truck. Another Wacker plumber had by this time stopped by to help and I was afraid I would get billed for both plumbers plus another trip out to replace what was probably a $10 part. Instead, one plumber left and the other went to Home Depot, got a replacement ball, came back and fixed the problem. On top of that, they only charged us the minimum charge, which includes a travel charge and the first half hour of work, plus the parts fees (I also had him replace a couple internal parts while he was in there, as a preventative measure. So, bottom line, they were here for probably 1 1/2 hours and we only got charged for a half hour. In my book, that's excellent service, in this day and age.

Description of Work: I contracted with Wacker to do the plumbing work for two bathrooms that were being remodeled. They installed two new toilets, three bathroom sinks, two showers and a faucet for a jacuzzi tub. I had to call them back on several occasions due to a wobbly tank on the toilet, faucets that were dripping, a shower faucet that was put on backwards, faucet for jacuzzi was loose. They did come back out to fix everything but the initial workmanship was far below satisfactory. I don't plan to use them again.

Description of Work: We had a bathroom sink stopper that no longer opened, a possible malfunctioning hot-water heater, and a leaky faucet.The plumber came, fixed the sink stopper issue immediately, did a thorough check of the hot-water heater and reported it in perfect condition, and looked at the leaky faucet in the bar sink. Noting that it was the original faucet from probably 1968, he recommended I purchase a new faucet and let him know when I had received it. He would be back to install it (for a fee). We have used Wacker Plumbing for several years and have always been satisfied by their work.
