Our team has been serving Baltimore County and Howard County since 2002, responding quickly to plumbing issues and providing comprehensive repair and installation services. Our offerings include drain cleaning, water heater services, toilet repairs, faucet installations, sump pumps, gas services, leak detection, and more. Fully licensed and insured, we approach every job with professionalism and care, ensuring our customers receive reliable results and a positive service experience.
Gas Services
We offer professional gas services that enable safe and efficient use of natural gas in the home. Gas-powered systems can operate heating equipment, appliances, water heaters, and fireplaces. Since mistakes can be dangerous, our approach centers on proper installation and repair. Gas line services are a key specialty within our plumbing capabilities.
Sewage & Sump Pumps
We provide comprehensive sewage pump support, from diagnosing problems to restoring full system functionality. When a pump fails, we clean the pit and assess all related components. Repairs are performed when feasible, with replacements recommended only when required. Our goal is to resolve issues efficiently and responsibly.
Faucet Repair
When a faucet begins to leak or fail, professional service makes all the difference. We offer expert faucet repair and installation performed by trained plumbers who stay current with industry practices. Using top-quality parts and straightforward pricing, we ensure dependable results and stand behind our work completely.
Boilers
Boiler systems remain a trusted option for dependable heating and hot water delivery. We provide comprehensive boiler installation services supported by skilled professionals with extensive hands-on experience. Our approach emphasizes quality workmanship and precise installation standards. Every project is completed with the goal of exceeding expectations and ensuring lasting system performance.
Drain Services
We deliver reliable drain cleaning and repair solutions that resolve blockages and prevent recurring problems. Each service starts with an inspection that allows us to accurately assess system conditions. Our technicians clear accumulated debris and foreign materials without risking pipe damage. When wear or breakage is present, we replace affected sections to maintain proper drainage.
Water Pipe Repair
We specialize in repairing water pipes affected by leaks, cracks, and pressure-related damage. Drain systems exposed to outside elements often develop blockages that strain pipe materials. Even minimal leaks can spread moisture into walls or ceilings. Our team restores damaged pipes to proper working condition using proven techniques.
Toilets
Toilets can experience gradual wear that leads to leaks, running water, or separation from critical seals. These conditions may remain unnoticed while causing higher utility costs or structural concerns. Observing stains below the bathroom or movement at the bowl can signal trouble. We offer skilled repair, replacement, and upgrade services to ensure reliable operation.
Sewer Line Repair
We deliver comprehensive sewer line repair and replacement solutions for damaged or nonfunctional main lines. Our process begins with detailed camera inspections to locate defects beneath the surface. Advanced methods allow us to resolve issues efficiently. The result is restored flow with minimal disruption to your home.
Water Heaters
Our business provides water heater services that support daily household needs and system reliability. Reduced performance or visible wear may indicate the need for repair or replacement. Most units function efficiently for about twelve years. We help customers make informed decisions that improve efficiency and reduce ongoing operating expenses.

Les and Charles are amazing! Our boiler was failing and they replaced it in the same week. The installation is beautiful. They are knowledgeable, professional, and so organized! We are grateful to Les for organizing his team to repair our heat quickly and near the holidays. Metcalf is local, family owned, and scheduling was a breeze. They are now our go-to plumbing service!

Very quick and very kind. Helped me to verify what was going on as a second opinion and of course both them and the people at honest Abe were right about my aquastat. Mike really took the time to hear me out and was sensitive to my obvious lack of financing. I highly recommend both him and the individual on the phone were very helpful.

Excellent service! Mike and Jonathan were really nice and explained everything that they were doing. This first experience with Metcalf Plumbing and please consider me a new customer.

Very professional. They wore booties and cleaned up the work area. They offered to come the same day but that actually didn't work for me, so they came a couple days later. They fixed some poor workmanship done by a prior plumber as well as taking care of the acute problem. Mike worked tirelessly until it was taken care of. I am very grateful. I would wholeheartedly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again.

The job required more work than expected. They didn't try to charge me more. There were some valves that were concerning to me , but they assured me they were in good shape and didn't try to sell me work that wasn't necessary. I will use them again when needed.

I had a ceiling leak from an upstairs bathroom. A section of the ceiling had to be cut open to find where the leak was coming from, which turned out to be the toilet. The wax ring was replaced under the toilet. Everything was done quickly and professionally, they cleaned up after the job and were very pleasant to work with.

Mike & John were fantastic. They were professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. They replaced our water heater the same day and offered us the most competitive price. This is our second time working with this company and they exceeded our expectations each time.

Mike and John arrived promptly to get to work and ensure our plumbing issues were solved immediately. Mike's explanations for the plumbing issues were very easy to follow and he never hesitated to answer any questions my wife and I had. Can't speak enough to their professionalism and expertise. We were so impressed that we will be scheduling and turning over our plumbing to do list completely over to Metcalf Plumbing Services. I also appreciated a visit from the owner during the job - GREAT JOB gentlemen and Thank You!

I have hired Metcalf Plumbing on three occasions for various different services. In every case, Mike was prompt, courteous, very neat and worked efficiently with great skill to successfully complete each task. He came up with some creative approaches to avoid making holes in tile or drywall which was greatly appreciated. I couldnt be happier with Mike M. and the entire Metcalf staff. Even met owner who was also a pleasure to speak with.

On time. Polite. Listened and fully understood what I wanted done. Excellent work. That's why I called Metcalf for the new work. The other jobs they've done for me were superb, too.

Mr. Metcalf and Johnathan showed up on time (early), listened to our concerns about our needs, and gave us an estimate on each aspect of the work. When we approved the work to be done, they got right to work. The work was done efficiently and cleanly. Everything was left as they found it. Highly recommended. Thanks.

Les Metcalf came to asses what was needed. He then presented us with a detailed description of the job. It was scheduled for Friday. However, there was availability for the work same day! The plumber and his apprentice worked hard and were very professional. Thank you for a job well done!

I recently had a catastrophic plumbing issue at my home, and Im beyond thankful for the incredible service provided by this company. From the moment they arrived, the experience was nothing short of outstanding.
The two technicians who came out were absolutely fantasticskilled, professional, friendly, and courteous. They not only solved the problem efficiently but also took the time to explain everything clearly, offering helpful tips and advice along the way. Their calm demeanor and clear communication made a stressful situation much more manageable.
The owner personally checked on the work, ensure everything met high standards, and took the time to chat with me. That kind of personal touch and commitment to quality is rare these days.
If you're in need of plumbing help and want a team that truly cares, acts professionally, and goes the extra mile, this is the company to call. Highly recommended!

Customer service - exceptional!
We have been without a hot water heater for two weeks. Metcalf was able to come out and inspect the issue and replace a hot water in the same day. Danielle was a person who answered the phone gave me details on how to process works. Chris was the gentleman who came out and replaced the hot water heater. I gave birth five stars as well as Metcalf. Thank you, Metcalf.

If you need a plumber, you can feel good about calling Metcalf. They are honest, and they go the extra mile to solve your issues. We saw water on our kitchen ceiling under our bathroom. We were able to get a timely appointment and Michael spent a long time tracing the issue. The charge was very reasonable and the staff is friendly and helpful.

We had an urgent plumbing issue at our home, and reached out to Metcalf Plumbing after reading some positive reviews. From the first call, we were impressed with their professionalism & response time. The technicians that came (Michael, Jonathan & Chris) arrived promptly as scheduled and explained the problem in clear terms to us and fixed the issue. They also took the time to ensure everything was working properly before leaving. I appreciate their honesty, expertise, and friendly customer service. We will definitely be calling them again for any future plumbing needs and highly recommend them to anyone looking in the area for reliable, high-quality plumbing services!

We've had to call Metcalf Plumbing twice now (once for water service line replacement and more recently for our leaking water heater). Both times, Metcalf has been easy to work with from start to finish. For both projects, Metcalf showed up on time, explained what was going on, our options, and price estimates. For our water line, Les, Lou, and Mike M. all came out. For our water heater, it was just Mike M. Both times, everyone was friendly, encouraged us to ask questions, polite, treated our home like it was their home, etc. We can't recommend them enough!
