Jamie was a pleasure to work with. He’s a technician and an artist. He solved the problem quickly.
I had a pipe leak on a Sunday. Robinson's was very polite on the phone, sent someone out in a timely manner and fixed it very quickly. Super service. I highly recommend using them.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review Diane! We fix leaking pipes whenever they happen, even on a weekend. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!
Micheal and Justin installed a new water heater for me yesterday and did an outstanding job. They were polite, professional, and very knowledgeable. I had questions before and after the installation and they took the time to answer all of them and also addressed a few concerns I had. They were really great to work with! I have been using Robinson’s for several years and continue to be impressed with the customer service and the quality of the work performed. So I would highly recommend them.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the fantastic review!

Excellent customer service. Very friendly. Would recommend 👌
On timeProfessionalHelpful & tidy!
I had a very slow leak in the crawlspace that was not an emergency (yet). I was still able to get an appointment first thing the next morning. Derick called ahead and was right on time. He was very friendly and professional, jumped under the house and assessed the situation within minutes. Then he gave me a detailed description of what he was going to do, the cost involved, and answered all of my questions and concerns. Derrck fixed the problem, showed me the repair and the bad section of pipe her replaced, answered some more questions about future concerns I had, and was on his way in just over an hour after arrival. I will definitely be calling Robinson's Plumbing Services next time I need plumbing work that I can't handle myself!
Excellent service!
The job was done in a professional manner was very pleased with the outcome keep up the good work
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review Sheila! Professional service, professional results, and happy customers are a great combination. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!
Woke to garage filled with water and water heater was the culprit. Other places didn't have appointments for 3 days, these guys got to us in 3 hours and had it fixed before noon. Very happy with the service and when it's time to upgrade, I'll be calling again, thanks Tim!
Michael was awesome! Great communication with prompt service.
A fine Professional job.
Reece was super informative and efficient . Outstanding service
I needed an after hours appointment and got one the same day I called. Michael came out and diagnosed, repaired and cleaned up the areas perfectly. He also quoted another non-emergency job and explained it thoroughly. I will use this company again for plumbing needs - they were great!
Excellent response; the plumber (Reece) did an excellent job and cleaned-up after the work; came on time and got the job done very well.
Reliable quality service.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review Rountree Properties! We handle commercial plumbing for Property Managers, grocery stores, restaurants, and all other commercial properties. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!
Very good experience. I had no hot water. I agreed to recommendation of heater replacement. Also cleaned out bathroom sink pipe. Very hayy with Michael's efficiency.
The day after thanksgiving, we had a large leak in the kitchen waste pipe that goes down through the garage, right next to the electrical panel. In short, an emergency. We didn't know the exact source of the leak or the difficulty of a remedy. We called Robinson's and about two hours Nigel showed up to help. Again, the day after Thanksgiving. The leak turned out to be a break in the pipe in a remarkably inaccessible spot as it passed through the subfloor of the kitchen. Had we waited through the weekend the consequences could have been severe. Nigel found the exact location of the break, fabricated a fix with a series of couplings that had to be assembled in place due to the turns and location, and had us good to go within the course if about 2.5 hours. What started out as a holiday disaster ended as a minor inconvenience. I can't recommend him enough.
No one wants a water leak when you have company but when it happens - Robinson Plumbing can help! I had someone at the house within a few hours and the issue was identified and resolved quickly and efficiently! And the “after hours” prices are so reasonable!
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review EM! We handle all plumbing jobs with care no matter if they are something small like a running toilet or a larger repair like a water heater or an underground water line. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!
Courteous and knowledgeable technicians looking to solve the problem with my hot water heater with the simplest and least expensive solution. Addressed all issues and answered all questions. Will use Robison Plumbing again without reservation.

Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review Cary! We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!
Great response after hours, great communication, great job and impressive that fiber optic camera was used to verify drain clear all the way to street.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review Cris! A camera system is the only way to verify the condition of drain pipes so we recommend a camera inspection after most drain calls. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again!

Water Heater Repair FAQs

We often hear people ask similar questions about water heater repair in VA. Here are a few of the more frequently asked ones:

Q: My water heater leaks—am I in danger?

A: There are a few things that could cause a water heater leak. An explosion could occur if your temperature and pressure valve (T&P) doesn’t turn off when the pressure or temperature is too high.

Sediment buildup (that can lead to corrosion) can also cause a leak in your water heater. The best way to know for sure is to call the experts from Robinson’s Plumbing to diagnose the problem.

Q: What color should my water heater burner flame be?

A: The flame of your water heater burner should be blue with yellow tips. If the overall color appears to be more orange-yellow, this could be a sign of poor burning. It can also negatively impact water heater performance and potentially produce deadly carbon monoxide.

Q: What caused my water heater to stop working?

A: Age and sediment buildup are two of the most common things that cause water heaters to stop working. Minerals such as magnesium and calcium start to collect in the burner and on the sides of the water tank. Over time, they form a barrier that causes burner performance issues.
