New plumbing installation covers anything from adding a bathroom in a finished basement to running full rough-in plumbing for a home addition or new construction. It's planning-heavy work: getting supply, drain and vent lines right the first time matters far more than it does on a repair call.
We work with homeowners planning a renovation and with contractors on new builds, handling permits and inspections through Prince William County as part of the job.

Basement finishing is one of the more common installation calls we get in Woodbridge, particularly in the 1960s and 1970s Dale City and Lake Ridge housing stock where basements were originally left unfinished and are now being converted into livable space, often including a new bathroom or wet bar that needs plumbing run from scratch.
Newer construction near Belmont Bay and other river-adjacent development typically already has rough-in plumbing planned into the original build, which shifts our work there more toward fixture upgrades and additions than ground-up installation.
A sewage ejector pump, when a basement bathroom's drain elevation sits below the main sewer line, has to be sized to both the fixture count and the vertical lift required, and undersizing it is one of the more common reasons a new basement bathroom underperforms once it's actually in use.
Common new installation projects.
- ✓Adding a bathroom to a finished basement
Requires new supply, drain and vent lines, often with a sewage ejector pump if gravity drainage isn't available. - ✓Rough-in plumbing for a home addition
Needs to be planned and inspected before walls and flooring close it in. - ✓Adding an outdoor hose bib or irrigation line
Straightforward addition, but backflow prevention requirements apply on irrigation connections. - ✓New laundry room plumbing in a converted space
Supply and drain lines for a washer, plus proper venting.
How we handle it
We plan the full layout before cutting into anything: where supply, drain and vent lines need to run, whether a basement bathroom needs a sewage ejector pump given your home's drain elevation, and how the new work ties into existing plumbing without creating pressure or drainage issues elsewhere in the house.
We pull the required permits through Prince William County, schedule the rough-in inspection before anything is closed up behind drywall, and complete the finish work once that inspection passes.
Every new installation gets pressure tested before we close up any wall or ceiling access, and we schedule the required county inspection ourselves rather than leaving that step for the homeowner to arrange, so the project is fully signed off, not just physically finished.
For any addition or basement finish, we lay out the full plumbing plan on paper before cutting anything, walking through it with you so there are no surprises about where a cleanout, vent stack, or ejector pump basin ends up in the finished space.
We also handle the plumbing side of a home addition's utility room or laundry relocation, coordinating supply and drain line extensions with the same planning rigor we apply to a full basement bathroom, since a laundry relocation done without proper venting is a common source of slow-draining washers down the line.
For a detached structure like a pool house or a workshop, we handle the exterior supply and drain line run from the main house, including any trenching and freeze protection needed for a line that travels outside the heated building envelope.

Do I need a sewage ejector pump for a basement bathroom?
Depends on your home's drain elevation relative to the main sewer line. If gravity drainage isn't possible, an ejector pump is required to move wastewater up to the main line.
How long does it take to rough-in plumbing for a basement bathroom?
Typically a few days for the rough-in itself, plus time for the required inspection before walls close it in. We'll give you a realistic schedule based on your specific layout.
Can you handle the permit process for me?
Yes, we pull the required permits through Prince William County and schedule inspections as part of the installation, so you're not managing that separately.
