Plumbing services in Lanham You Can Count On

Plumbing services in Lanham is the work of keeping water flowing and waste moving in a community that sits right where Prince George's County meets the Beltway. We have served Lanham since 2008, and in 18 years we have learned the neighborhoods block by block. From the older capes and ramblers near Lanham-Seabrook to the newer townhome clusters off Greenbelt Road, we know what fails and why. Cast iron drains in mid-century homes, galvanized steel supply lines that have quietly corroded for decades, and water heaters that give out on the coldest weekend of the year. Our licensed plumbers carry the tools to handle all of it: pipe wrenches, drain snakes, hydro-jetters, sewer cameras, and PEX crimping tools. We are not a franchise passing your call to a subcontractor. We are the crew that lives and works here, and we treat Lanham customers like neighbors. Whether it is a running toilet at 10 p.m. or a slab leak you just noticed, we pick up the phone and get moving.

Lanham sits in a sweet spot for plumbing demand. The housing stock spans roughly 70 years, from post-war builds with original cast iron pipe to newer construction with PEX tubing. That mix means we see everything: root intrusion in older sewer laterals, low water pressure from corroded galvanized lines, and water heater failures in homes where the tank has never been flushed. Add the freeze-thaw cycles that hit Maryland every winter and the heavy clay soil that shifts with the seasons, and you get a steady stream of real plumbing problems. We serve Lanham because this is where our customers live. We know the streets, the traffic patterns, and the quirks of the local building stock.

Who we serve in Lanham

Two very different jobs. One local crew.

For homes

Residential Plumbing Services in Lanham

Lanham homes are a mix of mid-century capes, split-levels, townhomes, and newer construction. Each era has its own plumbing profile. Older homes often need re-piping, drain repairs, and water heater replacements. Newer homes need tankless maintenance, fixture upgrades, and warranty work. We handle both. Our residential plumbers treat your home like their own: shoe covers, drop cloths, and a clean workspace when we leave. Whether you are dealing with a running toilet or a full sewer line replacement, we make it easy.

Water heater repair and replacement

We repair and replace gas and electric water heaters in Lanham homes. If your tank is leaking or over 10 years old, we can install a new Rheem, A.O. Smith, or Bradford White unit the same day. We also install tankless systems for homeowners who want endless hot water and lower energy bills.

Drain cleaning and root removal

Slow drains and recurring clogs are common in Lanham's older homes. We clear kitchen, bathroom, and main lines with drain snakes and hydro-jetters. If roots are the problem, we cut them out and show you the camera footage. We also offer preventive treatments to keep roots from coming back.

Leak detection and pipe repair

Hidden leaks waste water and damage your home. We use leak detection equipment to find slab leaks, pinhole leaks, and irrigation line breaks without tearing up your walls or floors. Once we find the leak, we repair it fast. Most repairs are done in a single visit.

Fixture installation and repair

We install and repair faucets, toilets, showers, and shutoff valves. We carry Moen, Delta, and Kohler fixtures, and we can match your existing style. If you are remodeling a bathroom or kitchen, we can rough in new plumbing and connect the fixtures. Licensed, permitted, and inspected.

  • Flat-rate pricing quoted before work begins, so you know the cost upfront.
  • Same-day service for most repairs, with 24/7 emergency availability.
  • 1-year workmanship warranty on all residential plumbing work.

For businesses

Commercial Plumbing Services in Lanham

Lanham's commercial corridor along Annapolis Road and Route 50 is home to restaurants, retail shops, offices, and service businesses. These properties have plumbing systems that work harder than residential ones. Grease lines, backflow preventers, commercial water heaters, and multi-stall restrooms all need regular service. We understand the pressure to stay open. A plumbing problem that shuts down your business costs you money every hour. That is why we offer after-hours and weekend scheduling, and why we keep our trucks stocked with commercial-grade parts.

  • Restaurants and food service
  • Retail and shopping centers
  • Office buildings
  • Medical and dental offices
  • Property management
After-hours and weekend scheduling

We work around your business hours. If your restaurant cannot afford to close during lunch, we come after dinner. If your office needs a restroom repair, we schedule it for a Saturday. You get the fix without losing a day of revenue.

Backflow prevention testing and certification

Commercial properties in Lanham with irrigation systems, boilers, or fire suppression lines need annual backflow testing. Our certified techs perform the test, file the paperwork with the local water authority, and keep you compliant. We track your due dates so you never miss one.

Grease line and drain jetting

Restaurant grease lines clog fast. We hydro-jet them clean, removing the grease buildup that causes slow drains and odors. We also install and service grease traps. Quarterly maintenance keeps your kitchen running and your health inspections passing.

Commercial water heater service

Commercial water heaters take a beating. We repair and replace them, and we stock high-capacity units for restaurants, hotels, and apartment buildings. If your heater fails, we can often install a replacement the same day. We also perform annual flushing to extend tank life.

Our licensed technicians reach neighborhoods like Seabrook, Good Luck, and Whitfield Gardens within the hour.

One call restores safety and stops water damage before it spreads.

Our on-call crew dispatches from Route 450 and reaches most Lanham addresses in under 60 minutes.

Whether you're near Lanham-Seabrook Elementary or off Cipriano Road, we isolate the leak, restore flow, and document everything for your insurer.

Burst Pipe Emergency Repairs

Lanham's 1950s housing stock hides copper and galvanized pipes inside slab floors and exterior walls. Winter freezes split them without warning. We locate the failure with acoustic listening, cut out the damaged section, and install PEX or copper replacements rated for Maryland's temperature swings. Most burst-pipe emergencies in Lanham are resolved the same night, with full pressure restored before we leave.

Sewage Backup Containment

Heavy rain overwhelms Lanham's combined storm and sanitary lines, pushing raw sewage into basements near the Amtrak corridor. Our emergency team arrives with containment barriers, commercial wet vacuums, and disinfectants. We clear the blockage, sanitize affected surfaces, and advise on backwater valve installation to prevent the next overflow. Every sewage emergency in Lanham ends with a clean, safe home.

We arrive on time, quote upfront, and leave your home cleaner than we found it. One trusted team handles every residential plumbing need.

Whole-Home Repiping Experts

Many Lanham homes still run on original galvanized steel that rusts from the inside out. We replace failing supply lines with copper or PEX, running new pipe through attics and crawlspaces with minimal drywall damage. A whole-home repipe in Lanham typically takes two to four days and restores full water pressure to every fixture, from kitchen sinks to second-floor showers.

Whether you're updating a bathroom in a 1962 rancher off Princess Garden Parkway or adding a utility sink in a Seabrook basement, we handle supply lines, drain connections, and code compliance. Every fixture install includes a leak test and a walkthrough so you know exactly how everything works.

Water Pressure Diagnostics

Low pressure in Lanham often traces to corroded galvanized pipe, a failing pressure-reducing valve, or sediment-clogged aerators. We test static and dynamic pressure at multiple fixtures, inspect the main shutoff, and identify the true cause. Solutions range from valve replacement to partial repiping. You get a written diagnosis and a flat-rate quote before any work begins.

Plumbing Repairs in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros handles plumbing repairs in Lanham for leaks, clogs, running toilets, and failing shutoff valves. Our licensed plumbers serve homeowners and businesses from Good Luck Road to the Lanham-Springhill border, diagnosing problems accurately and fixing them right the first time. We carry common parts on every truck, so most repairs finish in one visit. Upfront pricing means you approve the cost before we start.

Leak Detection And Repair

Hidden leaks behind Lanham walls and under slabs waste water and breed mold. We use thermal imaging, acoustic sensors, and pressure isolation to pinpoint the source without unnecessary demolition. Once located, we repair copper, PEX, and galvanized lines, then restore the affected area. Most leak repairs in Lanham are completed the same day with minimal disruption.

Toilet And Faucet Fixes

A running toilet in a Lanham townhome can waste hundreds of gallons daily. We replace fill valves, flappers, wax rings, and supply lines, and we repair or replace faucet cartridges, stems, and aerators. Whether it's a 1970s American Standard or a modern Moen, we carry the parts to fix it fast and stop the waste.

Valve And Pipe Replacement

Old gate valves seize, and corroded pipes develop pinhole leaks. We replace main shutoff valves, angle stops, and damaged pipe sections throughout Lanham. Our plumbers sweat copper, crimp PEX, and thread galvanized with equal skill. Every replacement is pressure-tested and inspected before we close up the wall or floor.

Drain Cleaning 05
Drain Cleaning in Lanham

Drain Cleaning in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros provides drain cleaning in Lanham for slow sinks, backed-up tubs, and recurring kitchen clogs. Our technicians serve homes and businesses from Whitfield Gardens to the Ardwick industrial area, using camera inspection and professional jetting to clear blockages at the source. We don't just punch a hole through the clog; we restore full flow and show you what caused it.

Hydro Jetting For Stubborn Clogs

Grease, scale, and roots demand more than a snake. Our hydro jetting equipment blasts water at up to 4,000 PSI, scouring pipe walls clean and restoring original diameter. In Lanham's older homes with cast iron drains, jetting removes decades of buildup that causes repeat backups. We finish with a camera inspection to confirm the line is truly clear.

Camera Drain Inspections

Before we clean, we look. A high-resolution sewer camera reveals cracked pipes, offset joints, root intrusions, and bellies in Lanham's clay and cast iron laterals. You see the footage on our monitor, and we explain exactly what's happening underground. This prevents unnecessary cleaning and helps you plan for repairs before a small issue becomes a flood.

Kitchen And Bathroom Drains

Kitchen sinks in Lanham restaurants and homes clog with grease and food debris, while bathroom drains catch hair and soap scum. We clear P-traps, branch lines, and main stacks using augers, jetters, and enzyme treatments. Every drain cleaning includes a flow test and advice on preventing future clogs, so your Lanham property stays free-flowing.

  • Hydro jetting up to 4,000 PSI for grease and roots
  • Sewer camera inspection with on-screen footage review
  • Kitchen, bathroom, and main line drain clearing

Sewer Line Repair in Lanham

Sewer Line Repair in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros performs sewer line repair in Lanham for cracked clay laterals, root intrusions, and offset joints that cause repeat backups. Our crews serve properties from Seabrook to the Lanham Metro area, using trenchless technology to fix pipes without destroying lawns and driveways. We camera-inspect first, explain your options, and restore your sewer line with minimal disruption to your property.

Trenchless Sewer Line Repair

Traditional sewer repair means digging a trench across your Lanham yard. Trenchless methods change that. We pull a resin-impregnated liner through the damaged pipe, inflate it, and cure it in place, creating a new pipe within the old one. Most trenchless sewer repairs in Lanham finish in a single day with only small access pits.

Root Intrusion Removal

Lanham's mature oak and maple trees send roots into clay sewer laterals through tiny cracks. We cut roots with chain knockers and cutters, then apply root-killing foam to discourage regrowth. If roots have cracked the pipe, we recommend spot repairs or lining. Left untreated, root intrusions cause sewage backups that damage basements and landscaping.

Pipe Descaling And Cleaning

Cast iron sewer lines in older Lanham homes accumulate rust and scale that narrows the pipe and catches debris. We descale with high-pressure chain flails, restoring flow capacity without replacing the line. After descaling, a camera inspection confirms the pipe is clean and structurally sound. This service extends the life of your existing sewer line for years.

  • Trenchless sewer lining with minimal yard excavation
  • Root cutting, foaming, and spot repair for clay laterals
  • Cast iron descaling to restore full pipe diameter
  • Post-repair camera inspection with written report

Sewer Line Replacement 07
Sewer Line Replacement in Lanham

Sewer Line Replacement in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros handles sewer line replacement in Lanham when repair is no longer enough. Collapsed clay pipes, chronic root damage, and bellied lines under Lanham's older neighborhoods require full replacement. We offer trenchless pipe bursting and traditional open-cut methods, matching the right approach to your property. Every replacement includes permits, inspection coordination, and a written warranty for peace of mind.

Trenchless Pipe Bursting

Pipe bursting pulls a new HDPE pipe through the old one while breaking the host pipe outward. This method works well for Lanham properties with mature landscaping, driveways, or patios that can't be disturbed. We dig small entry and exit pits, burst the old line, and connect the new pipe to the municipal sewer. Most replacements finish in one to two days.

Open-Cut Sewer Replacement

When a Lanham sewer line is deeply buried, severely bellied, or needs a grade correction, open-cut replacement is the right call. We excavate the failed section, install new PVC pipe with proper slope, and backfill with compacted gravel. We restore the surface with topsoil and seed. This method delivers a brand-new sewer line with a long service life.

Permits And Inspections

Sewer replacement in Prince George's County requires permits and inspections. We handle the paperwork, schedule the WSSC Water inspection, and meet the inspector on site. You don't chase signatures or wait on hold. Our team manages the entire compliance process so your new Lanham sewer line is legal, documented, and covered by warranty.

  • Trenchless pipe bursting for minimal landscape disruption
  • Open-cut replacement with proper slope and PVC pipe
  • Permit filing and WSSC Water inspection coordination
  • Written warranty on all sewer line replacement work

Water Heater Installation in Lanham

Water Heater Installation in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros provides water heater installation in Lanham for homeowners replacing aging tanks or upgrading to modern efficiency. We install gas, electric, and hybrid models in Lanham's ranchers, townhomes, and commercial buildings. Our licensed plumbers handle permits, code upgrades, and old-unit disposal. You get hot water restored the same day, with a manufacturer warranty and our own workmanship guarantee.

Tank Water Heater Replacement

Most Lanham homes rely on 40- or 50-gallon tank water heaters that last 8 to 12 years. When yours fails, we drain and remove the old unit, inspect the pan and venting, and install a new tank sized to your household. We upgrade expansion tanks and shutoff valves to current code, so your installation passes inspection without delay.

Hybrid Heat Pump Water Heaters

Hybrid heat pump water heaters cut energy use by up to 60 percent compared to standard electric tanks. They work well in Lanham basements and garages with adequate clearance and moderate temperatures. We assess your space, explain rebate opportunities, and install the unit with proper condensate drainage. Many Lanham homeowners see lower utility bills within the first month.

Code Upgrades And Permits

New water heater installations in Prince George's County require permits and specific safety upgrades, including thermal expansion control and proper venting. We pull the permit, install the required components, and schedule the inspection. Our Lanham water heater installations are fully code-compliant, so you avoid fines and insurance complications down the road.

Water Heater Repair in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros delivers water heater repair in Lanham when your hot water runs out, your tank leaks, or your pilot won't stay lit. We service gas, electric, tankless, and hybrid units throughout Lanham, from Good Luck Road to the Seabrook community. Our technicians diagnose the problem, explain your options, and complete most repairs the same day with parts stocked on every truck.

No Hot Water Diagnosis

Cold showers in Lanham often trace to a failed heating element, a broken thermocouple, or a tripped high-limit switch. We test each component systematically, identify the root cause, and replace only what's failed. If your water heater is under warranty, we document the failure and help you file the claim. Most no-hot-water calls are fixed within two hours.

Leaking Tank And Valve Repair

A leaking water heater in a Lanham basement can cause thousands in damage. We inspect the tank, T&P valve, drain valve, and fittings to find the source. Sometimes a simple valve replacement solves it; other times the tank itself has failed. We give you an honest assessment and, if replacement is needed, a clear quote before any work begins.

Pilot And Ignition Fixes

Gas water heaters in Lanham sometimes lose their pilot light or fail to ignite. We clean the pilot assembly, replace thermocouples and igniters, and check gas pressure at the valve. If the problem is a cracked heat exchanger or a failed gas control valve, we explain the repair cost versus replacement so you can decide with confidence.

  • Same-day diagnosis for no hot water and pilot failures
  • Heating element, thermocouple, and valve replacement
  • Leak detection on tanks, fittings, and T&P valves
  • Warranty documentation and honest repair-versus-replace advice

Tankless Water Heater Services in Lanham

Maryland Plumbing Pros offers tankless water heater services in Lanham for homeowners and businesses wanting endless hot water and lower energy bills. We install, repair, and maintain gas and electric tankless units throughout Lanham, from Whitfield Gardens to the Route 450 corridor. Our licensed plumbers size the unit to your demand, handle venting and gas line upgrades, and keep your system running efficiently year after year.

Tankless Installation And Sizing

A tankless water heater must be sized to your peak hot-water demand and incoming groundwater temperature. Lanham's cold winter supply affects flow rates, so we calculate properly rather than guessing. We install the unit, upgrade gas lines and venting as needed, and commission the system. You get endless hot water and a unit that meets manufacturer specifications.

Descaling And Maintenance

Lanham's water contains minerals that build scale inside tankless heat exchangers, reducing efficiency and flow. We perform annual descaling with food-grade vinegar, flush the system, and clean inlet filters. Regular maintenance prevents costly failures and keeps your warranty valid. Most tankless water heater services in Lanham take about an hour and extend unit life by years.

Tankless Repair And Diagnostics

Error codes, fluctuating temperatures, and reduced flow signal problems with your tankless unit. We diagnose ignition failures, flow sensor faults, and heat exchanger issues using manufacturer diagnostic tools. Our trucks carry common replacement parts for Rinnai, Navien, and Rheem units. Most tankless repairs in Lanham are completed in a single visit, restoring reliable hot water fast.

How We Handle Plumbing Work in Lanham

Every Lanham job starts with a real diagnosis. We do not guess. If your drain is slow, we run a sewer camera before we quote a repair. If your water pressure is low, we test the main and check for pipe corrosion. Once we

Older clay and cast iron sewer laterals

Many Lanham homes built before 1970 still have original clay tile or cast iron sewer lines. These pipes crack, offset at the joints, and invite root intrusion. A slow main line is often the first sign.

How we help: We run a sewer camera to see exactly what is happening underground. If the damage is localized, we repair that section. If the pipe is failing along its length, we recommend replacement with PVC. We show you the footage so you can see the problem yourself.

Galvanized steel supply lines corroding from inside

Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside out. In Lanham homes from the 1950s and 60s, this shows up as low water pressure, brownish water, and pinhole leaks. The pipe may look fine from the outside.

How we help: We test water pressure at multiple fixtures to confirm the diagnosis. Then we re-pipe the affected runs with PEX tubing or copper pipe. PEX is faster to install, handles freeze-thaw cycles well, and costs less. Most re-pipes are done in one to two days.

Freeze-thaw cycles cracking pipes in winter

Maryland winters swing between freezing nights and mild days. That cycle stresses pipes, especially in crawlspaces, garages, and exterior walls. A cracked pipe can dump hundreds of gallons into your basement before you notice.

How we help: We insulate exposed pipes, install shutoff valves where they are missing, and fix the drafts that let cold air reach plumbing. If a pipe does freeze, we thaw it safely with controlled heat, never an open torch. Then we repair or replace the damaged section.

“Our water heater died on a Friday night. I called Maryland Plumbing Pros and they had a tech at our door by 8 a.m. Saturday. He explained everything, gave us a price before starting, and had the new heater installed by lunch. No surprises, no upsell. We have hot water again and I could not be happier.”

“We had a sewer backup that turned out to be roots in the old clay pipe. The team ran a camera, showed me the footage, and gave me two options: spot repair or full replacement. I chose the spot repair. They did the work in a day and a half and cleaned up the yard better than I expected. Fair price, honest advice.”

“I manage a small office building on Annapolis Road. We had a backflow test coming due and a leaky faucet in the break room. Maryland Plumbing Pros handled both in one visit. They filed the backflow paperwork with the county and fixed the faucet. Professional, on time, and they know commercial code. We use them for all our plumbing now.”

Recent Plumbing Jobs in Lanham

We do not just talk about plumbing. We do it every day in Lanham. Here are three recent jobs that show what we handle and how we handle it. Names and exact addresses are left out, but the details are real.

01 Lanham-Seabrook

The problem

A homeowner in Lanham-Seabrook noticed sewage backing up into the basement floor drain every time the washing machine drained. The house was built in 1962 and still had the original cast iron sewer lateral.

What we did

We ran a sewer camera and found root intrusion at two joints plus a collapsed section about 15 feet from the foundation. We excavated the damaged section, replaced it with PVC pipe, and installed a cleanout for future access. The job took two days.

The result

The backup stopped immediately. The homeowner now has a cleanout that makes future maintenance easy. We also gave them a camera inspection report for their records.

02 Annapolis Road commercial corridor

The problem

A restaurant on Annapolis Road had a grease clog that was causing slow drains in the kitchen and a bad smell in the dining area. They had tried off-the-shelf drain cleaner with no luck.

What we did

We hydro-jetted the grease line from the kitchen to the main sewer connection. The hydro-jetter scoured the pipe walls clean, removing years of grease buildup. We also installed a larger grease trap to reduce future clogs.

The result

Drains flowed freely the same day. The restaurant passed its health inspection the following week. We set them up on a quarterly jetting schedule to prevent future problems.

03 Woodmore

The problem

A family in Woodmore had a 12-year-old tank water heater that started leaking from the bottom. They had no hot water and a small puddle spreading across the garage floor.

What we did

We shut off the water and gas, drained the tank, and hauled it away. The next morning we installed a new 50-gallon Rheem unit, replaced the expansion tank and supply lines, and brought everything up to current code.

The result

Hot water was back by noon. The new heater came with a 6-year manufacturer warranty and our 1-year workmanship warranty. The family also signed up for annual flushing to extend the tank life.

Common Plumbing Problems in Lanham

Lanham has its own set of plumbing challenges. The housing stock is older than in many parts of Prince George's County, and the soil and climate add stress. Here are the four problems we see most often and how we handle them.

01

Root intrusion in clay sewer laterals

Why it happens: Many Lanham homes built before 1975 have clay tile sewer lines. The joints between tiles are not watertight, and tree roots find their way in. Once inside, roots grow and block the pipe. The problem gets worse every year until the line backs up.

Our approach: We run a sewer camera to see the extent of the intrusion. If roots are the only issue, we can cut them out with a drain snake or hydro-jetter. If the pipe is cracked or offset, we repair or replace that section. We also offer preventive treatments to slow future root growth.

02

Galvanized steel pipes corroding from the inside

Why it happens: Galvanized pipe was common in homes built between 1940 and 1970. Over decades, the zinc coating wears away and the steel rusts. The pipe narrows, pressure drops, and pinhole leaks appear. From the outside, the pipe may look fine.

Our approach: We test water pressure and inspect exposed pipes. If corrosion is widespread, we recommend re-piping with PEX tubing or copper pipe. PEX is faster to install, resists freeze damage, and costs less than copper. Most re-pipes are completed in one to two days.

03

Water heater failure during cold snaps

Why it happens: Water heaters work harder in winter. Cold incoming water takes more energy to heat, and the tank expands and contracts with temperature swings. A tank that is already corroded inside is more likely to fail when demand is highest.

Our approach: We repair what can be repaired and replace what cannot. If your heater is over 10 years old and leaking, replacement is the right call. We stock Rheem, A.O. Smith, and Bradford White units so we can install the same day. We also flush the new tank and check the anode rod.

04

Frozen pipes in crawlspaces and exterior walls

Why it happens: Lanham winters bring overnight freezes and daytime thaws. Pipes in unheated crawlspaces, garages, and exterior walls are vulnerable. When water freezes, it expands and cracks the pipe. The leak starts when the ice thaws.

Our approach: We insulate exposed pipes, seal drafts, and install shutoff valves where they are missing. If a pipe freezes, we thaw it with controlled heat, never an open flame. Then we repair or replace the damaged section. We also show you how to shut off the main if it happens again.

Plumbing Prices in Lanham: What to Expect

Plumbing prices in Lanham depend on the job, not the ZIP code. A drain cleaning might run $150 to $350. A water heater replacement typically lands between $1,200 and $2,500 installed, depending on tank size and fuel type. Sewer line repairs range from $1,500 for a spot fix to $8,000 or more for a full replacement with excavation. We quote flat rates before we start, so you know the number. No hourly billing, no surprise line items. If we run into something unexpected, we stop and talk to you before we proceed. That is how we have kept Lanham customers coming back for 18 years.

We schedule regular appointments Monday through Saturday, with morning and afternoon windows. Emergency service runs 24/7, including holidays. For Lanham customers, we can often offer same-day service if you call before noon. If you need a specific time, tell us when you book and we will do our best to hit it. We send a text when the tech is on the way.

01Access and excavation depth

Sewer line work costs more when the pipe is deep or located under concrete, driveways, or mature landscaping. A shallow lateral in an open yard is a straightforward dig. A line under a finished patio requires cutting and restoration, which adds labor and materials.

02Parts and material type

Standard PVC pipe and fittings are affordable. Copper pipe costs more than PEX tubing. Specialty fixtures from Kohler or Delta carry a higher price than builder-grade options. We stock common parts on the truck, which saves you a second trip and a second labor charge.

03Urgency and time of day

Emergency calls after hours, on weekends, or on holidays carry a higher rate. That is standard across the trades. If you can wait until the next business day, you will pay less. If water is pouring into your basement, call us and we will deal with it now.

Lanham through the year

How Seasons Affect Plumbing in Lanham

Lanham's climate keeps plumbers busy year-round. Winter brings freezes, spring brings rain and root growth, summer stresses water heaters and irrigation systems, and fall is the time to prepare for cold. Here is what to expect each season and what you can do to stay ahead of problems.

Spring

Spring rain saturates the ground, which can shift soil and stress underground pipes. Tree roots wake up and start growing, which means sewer clogs become more common. We also see sump pump failures and basement seepage that homeowners mistake for plumbing leaks.

Tip: Schedule a sewer camera inspection if your drains are slow. Clear gutters and check your sump pump before the heavy rains hit. If you have mature trees near your sewer line, ask us about preventive root treatment.

Summer

Summer is peak season for water heater replacements and drain cleaning. Air conditioning condensate lines can clog and cause water damage. Irrigation systems run daily, which stresses outdoor faucets and supply lines. We also handle more commercial calls as restaurants hit their busy season.

Tip: Flush your water heater if it has been more than a year. Check outdoor faucets for leaks. If your AC condensate line drains into a floor drain, make sure the drain is clear. A $150 drain cleaning beats a $1,500 water damage repair.

Fall

Fall is the time to prepare for winter. We see a spike in requests for pipe insulation, shutoff valve installation, and water heater tune-ups. Leaves and debris can clog exterior drains. Homeowners who wait until the first freeze often pay emergency rates.

Tip: Insulate pipes in crawlspaces, garages, and exterior walls. Disconnect garden hoses and shut off outdoor faucets. If your water heater is over 10 years old, get it inspected now. Replacing a heater on a mild October day is cheaper and easier than an emergency swap in January.

Winter

Winter is emergency season. Frozen pipes, burst lines, and water heater failures keep our phones ringing. The freeze-thaw cycle is hardest on older homes with uninsulated pipes. We also see more slab leaks as the ground shifts under changing temperatures.

Tip: Know where your main shutoff valve is and make sure it turns freely. If you leave town, set your thermostat to at least 55 degrees. If a pipe freezes, thaw it slowly with a hair dryer or space heater. Never use an open torch. If you cannot find the freeze point, call us.
