Tim Whistler Home Protection Membership

Most plumbing and gas appliance failures we respond to could have been caught months earlier by a routine inspection. The Home Protection Membership is built for DMV homeowners who'd rather catch small problems early than pay for emergency repairs.

‍

What's Included Every Year

- Whole-home plumbing inspection. A licensed plumber walks every fixture, water line, drain, water heater, and main shutoff. Water pressure test, leak detection review, drain performance evaluation, and a written report with prioritized recommendations.

- Gas fireplace safety inspection. Combustion check, gas pressure test, venting and chimney inspection, safety sensor verification, and a CO emissions reading. Annual inspection is recommended by most fireplace manufacturers and is sometimes required to maintain warranty coverage.

- No diagnostic fee. Members never pay a service-call diagnostic charge when something goes wrong.

- 5 percent off every approved repair. Discount applies to repair work that comes out of your annual inspections or future service calls.

- Priority scheduling. When DMV storms, cold snaps, or holiday-weekend emergencies hit, members move to the front of the dispatch queue.

Why it's worth it

One emergency repair often costs more than an entire year of membership. At $25 a month, the Home Protection Membership pays for itself the first time it catches something. Licensed across DC, Maryland, and Virginia, the same membership covers your home anywhere in the DMV.

Terms

$25 per month, billed monthly. 1-year minimum commitment. Inspections can be scheduled together or separately during the membership year. Membership transfers if you sell your home and move within our DMV service area.

FAQs

Common Questions You May Have

These are the most common questions people ask our professional plumbers and electricians.

Let's talk

Do we install tank and tankless water heaters?

Yes. We install, replace, and service traditional tank water heaters and ENERGY STAR rated tankless gas systems for homes and businesses across Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. We handle the gas, water, and venting work in-house since our team is licensed across plumbing, gas, and HVAC. Tankless conversions often qualify for utility rebates, and we'll walk you through which option makes sense for your home.

Do you install EV chargers and handle electrical panel upgrades?

Yes. Our licensed electricians install Level 2 EV chargers and handle full electrical panel upgrades (100A, 200A, and 400A) across the DMV. Older homes often need a panel upgrade to support modern loads like an EV charger, heat pump, or solar system. Every project is permitted, inspected, and brought to current code. Call 1-866-477-6190 for a panel evaluation.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. We provide free estimates for most installation and replacement projects, including water heaters, boilers, AC units, panel upgrades, gas line work, and full system installations. For diagnostic work on existing equipment (like an AC that isn't cooling), there may be a small service call fee that's credited toward the repair if you move forward. Call 1-866-477-6190 to schedule.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing, gas, HVAC, and electrical service?

Yes. Tim Whistler Plumbing offers true 24/7 emergency response for plumbing, gas, HVAC, and electrical issues across the DMV. Whether it's a burst pipe at 2 a.m., a suspected gas leak, a furnace that died on the coldest night of the year, or a panel that's tripping breakers, we have a licensed technician available. Call 1-866-477-6190.
