I had a very positive experience with Twin Plumbing Solutions and Parker. He was warm, professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and very easy to communicate with throughout the process. He took the time to explain what he was seeing, discussed the different repair options with me, and gave me a clear written quote. What especially impressed me was how quickly everything was handled. I requested a quote and the work was completed the same day. The price also felt very reasonable for the scope of the work. Parker worked efficiently and carefully, and he even took care of an unrelated clogged half-bath faucet that had not been flowing at full pressure, without charging me anything extra. That was very much appreciated. Most importantly, the plumbing issue appears to be fully resolved. It is now the second day after the work was completed and everything is working well with no problems that I can see. Overall, excellent service, good communication, thoughtful attention to detail, and a very professional experience. I would gladly use Twin Plumbing Solutions again and highly recommend Parker and the team.Posted on Google![]()

Parker is the most responsive and honest plumber I have ever worked with. He answered my call and made arrangements to evaluate my plumbing crisis the same day. His evaluation and visit was free of charge! No service call charge. He was professional and personable and quickly earned my trust. After an evaluation, he provided me with an estimate that was reasonable for the scope of work required. All of his estimates are sent electronically and once I clicked on the accept button, Parker reached out and we got the job scheduled. The day of the work, Parker was good at communicating his estimated time of arrival and was sensitive to my work schedule. The job was completed, checked and tested very quickly. Twins plumbing did an exceptional job, were reasonably priced and were trust worthy and reliable. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better experience.Posted on Google![]()

We’ve had such a great experience with Twin Plumbing Solutions! This is the second time we’ve used their services, this time for a different office location, and once again they were fantastic. Both of our offices are located in DC, which can sometimes make coordinating service a little more complicated. One of our locations is also in a federal building, so there were additional requirements and documentation needed before they could be approved to perform the work. Twin Plumbing Solutions was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. They provided everything we needed to obtain approval, scheduled the visit promptly, and got the job done without any issues. Jessy and his team were professional, reliable, easy to work with, and extremely responsive. It’s refreshing to work with a company that makes the entire process so easy from start to finish. We will definitely continue using Twin Plumbing Solutions for our offices and highly recommend them!Posted on Google![]()

Five-star service! I was in a complete panic when my shower valve burst, but Twin Plumbing came to the rescue. They responded and Jesse arrived the very same day I called, which was a lifesaver. Jesse was incredibly friendly, kind, and reassuring from the moment he walked in. He was professional and went above and beyond to be helpful during a stressful situation. To top it all off, the price was great and very reasonable. I will definitely be calling Twin Plumbing Solutions again for any future plumbing needs!Posted on Google![]()

We have a 100 year old bungalow in Takoma Park with one bathroom and a main sewer line that had backed up six times in under two years. The original pipe was terra cotta and tree roots were coming in every few feet. Twin Plumbing lined the whole run with a new pipe from the inside, re-piped the old cast iron stack in the basement, and found and repaired a broken section under the basement floor that nobody had caught before. The job finished right on schedule. What I appreciated most was that they explained what they were doing in plain language at every step, which is not something I've gotten from every plumber I've hired. Professional, easy to have in the house, and straight with me about what they were finding. They also pulled together the documentation I needed for a Maryland historic tax credit application, broken out the way the state wanted it. They didn't have to do that, and it saved me a lot of back and forth. Good work. Would hire them again.Posted on Google![]()

Solid work! Parker is amazing. Went above and beyond with the hard task at hand but got it done! I appreciate everything!Posted on Google![]()

Twin Plumbing Solutions did an amazing job replacing our sewer line. Our entire inside sewer line was completely rotted out, and I was worried we would have to tear up the basement floor to replace it. Instead, they installed a 20-foot trenchless CIPP liner, which allowed them to restore the sewer line without digging up our basement floor. The whole process went smoothly, the crew was professional, and they saved us from a huge mess and costly floor repairs. I highly recommend Twin Plumbing Solutions to anyone dealing with damaged or deteriorated sewer lines! Best plumbing company in Montgomery CountyPosted on Google![]()

I found Twin Plumbing Solutions via Yelp and compared the reviews there to the ones on Google. 5-star across the board, and my experience so far is the same. Jesse has been very responsive to the problems I've had with my garbage disposal and kitchen sink, has explained the issues and solutions clearly, and their prices seem very fair. I'm already planning to have them replace my hot water heater later this year.Posted on Google![]()

This place has saved me twice. Once from a shower that had been broken for over two years. Then less then 72 hours later...my toilet exploded(not really, but it overflowed in an obnoxious way). Now these two things were entirely unrelated but I had no one else to call and they rose to the occasion. They cam out gave me a great price and just saved my Sunday night. I owe them big time. They are professional and kind. I will definitely be calling them back for future plumbing help.
SERVICE OVERVIEW
How Our Laurel Sump Pump Services Keeps Your Basement Dry & Flood-Free
A sump pump is designed to protect your home from basement flooding by removing excess groundwater before it can cause damage. Installed in a sump pit at the lowest point of your basement or crawl space, it automatically turns on when water levels rise and pumps the water safely away from your home’s foundation. A properly working sump pump helps keep your basement dry, reduces the risk of mold growth, and protects your home from costly water damage during heavy rain or groundwater buildup.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about pricing, scheduling, or drain issues? Read our quick compiled answers below or call us directly at (301) 920-6922
Why does basement keep flooding even after installing a sump pump?
This usually means the existing pump is undersized for how much groundwater your property actually collects, or it’s simply reaching the end of its lifespan. Sometimes the discharge line is also routed poorly, sending water right back toward the foundation instead of away from it. Our residential plumbing team can take a look and figure out what’s actually going wrong.
What's the difference between a sump pump and a sewage ejector pump?
A sump pump only handles clean groundwater that collects around your foundation, while a sewage ejector pump moves actual wastewater from a basement bathroom or laundry hookup. They’re built for completely different jobs even though people often mix them up. If you’re not sure which one your basement actually needs, it’s worth having someone check both systems.
What to do if the basement floods during a power outage?
Without power, a standard sump pump can’t run, which is exactly why battery backup systems exist for situations like this. If this has happened before in your home, it’s a strong sign a backup system is worth adding. Our drain cleaning team can also check if slow drainage elsewhere is adding to the problem.
Can a sump pump help with recurring musty smells in my basement?
Often yes, since a musty smell is usually tied to excess moisture sitting around your foundation over time, which a properly working sump pump is designed to remove. If the smell continues even after installation, there could be an additional source like a hidden leak. Our hydro jetting service can help if the issue turns out to be connected to a nearby drain line instead.
Do all homes in Laurel need a sump pump, or just certain areas?
It really depends on your property’s elevation and how the surrounding ground handles water. Homes in lower lying spots or areas with a history of wet basements benefit the most. You can check our service areas page to see if your neighborhood is one we regularly work in, since local groundwater patterns vary quite a bit across the region.
