Plumbing built for how Germantown actually lives

Germantown is one of the largest communities in Montgomery County, and it grew up fast. Master-planned in the 1980s and 1990s around a cluster of villages, Kingsview, Clopper’s Mill, Waters Landing, Churchill, Middlebrook, and more, it filled with townhomes, garden condos, and single-family homes almost all at once, anchored today by the Germantown Town Center, Montgomery College, and the parks around Little Seneca Lake.

That building boom is exactly why plumbing here has its own personality. A huge share of Germantown homes are now 30 to 40 years old, which is prime time for water heaters and fixtures to fail, and many were plumbed with polybutylene supply lines that are known to crack and leak. Almost everything is on WSSC public water and sewer, though homes toward the Boyds and upcounty edges still run on private wells. We work in all of it, every week.

What we see here

Common plumbing issues in Germantown homes

The age and type of your home tells us a lot about what is likely going on.

1

Polybutylene pipes

Many homes built during Germantown’s 80s and 90s boom have polybutylene supply lines that are prone to cracking and sudden leaks.

2

End-of-life heaters & fixtures

With so much of Germantown now 30 to 40 years old, water heaters, valves, and faucets are reaching the age where they simply wear out.

3

Townhome & condo plumbing

The village communities of Clopper’s Mill, Waters Landing, and Kingsview mean shared stacks, tight shutoffs, and setups a local plumber should know.

4

Hard water & scale

Like the rest of the county, Germantown water leaves scale that shortens the life of heaters and fixtures.

Franklin and his crew showed up promptly and communicated great with us to help limit disruption with the tenants at 4 of our building. Unfortunately for us a second water main leak occurred the day before. But luckily for us they were able to stay on site another 2 days and knock the second one out, even staying till 8pm to find the line and get it repaired. These will be the guys I request for our next time needs

Seth and Brady did a fantastic job replacing our water heater. They were professional, courteous, and detail oriented. They arrived on time and did careful, clean work all the way through. We have worked with Clarksburg Plumbing on smaller items before this and would be very happy to utilize their services in the future, as well.

We were very happy with the service we received today from John and Maddie. They were both very professional, ran the necessary tests to confirm the issue, and explained what they were doing step by step. They wore the protective booties to keep the floor nice and dry from the rainy weather too. Thank John and Maddie for all your help!

Seth provided an estimate on 8/25 for upgrading my basement sump pump to a dual system. He explained the setup clearly and promptly reordered the exact Wi-Fi-capable model I requested before installation. Seth and Maddie returned on 8/28 and did a fantastic job. The system works great, and their professionalism was top-notch. Highly recommended!

Katie and the Clarksburg Plumbing team were phenomenal. Katie came highly recommended, and it could not have been a better choice. During an emergency plumbing issue at one of the buildings we service, her team came right out and made it happen. It was a complicated situation, but they handled it from start to finish with great responsiveness, professionalism, and patience throughout the entire process. We greatly appreciate their help and highly recommend them.

The plumber from Clarksburg Plumbing who worked on my broken gas hot water heater was John Brown. John is an amazing plumber. He is extremely energetic, very efficient, has amazing knowledge about plumbing, and is very honest. He is also very friendly, considerate, and took the time to answer all my questions. He diagnosed the problem quickly (which was a defective burner assembly). Then when I showed him the manufacturer's warranty, he took the initiative to immediately call the manufacturer and order all the necessary parts (which were free under the warranty). When the parts were delivered, he made sure to show up the next day and install the parts. As we talked throughout his time in the house, I could see that he has very deep knowledge of plumbing, which gives me confidence that his work is top quality. I also had a problem with very high water pressure in the house. The pressure regulator had to be replaced. John, working with Maddie, did a great job in fixing that as well. After the work, everything was cleaned up completely.

Highly recommend John Brown from Clarksburg Plumbing LLC! Yesterday John flushed and descaled our tankless water heater. We've gotten used to waiting and waiting for service people. That's not the case with John. He arrived pleasantly early for both the initial visit (for a no-cost estimate) and for the actual service call. He was personable, knowledgeable, and very patient with our many questions. He really helped us understand the ins and outs of this new-to-us technology of tankless water heaters. We're already recommending him to our neighbors!

I had Clarksburg Plumbing come out for a minor home plumbing repair. Seth and Maddie were on time, friendly, and professional. They provided a free estimate, and I went ahead with the repair. The repairs took just under 2 hours and I was completely satisfied with the service. I will definitely use Clarksburg Plumbing again in the future. Thanks, Seth and Maddie!

I recently used Clarksburg Plumbing for a condo repair of my main water turnoff valve and my outside hose bib. It required coordination with DC Water and the condo, and Clarksburg was extremely helpful, professional, and patient in the process. They came out a few times to evaluate and troubleshoot the issues, and then ultimately performed/made the repairs. Garrett and John Brown were the first to help, both very kind, knowledgable and highly skilled, and then Pablo (along with apprentice Tevon) made the final repairs. Not only did they do a great job, explaining everything to me in the process and checking after the water was restored to the condo, they also helped out one of the other owners that was having a sudden, luckily minor issue, as well. It’s a relief to know that I finally have a plumbing company that I can rely on for any future issues.
