Thos. Somerville Co. & The Somerville Bath & Kitchen Store

Thos. Somerville Co. is an excellent distributor of plumbing, heating and AC supplies in DMV. It took me endless efforts to find o-rings for my leaky vacuum breaker at hardware stores. None of them worked. Finally I used Google to search plumbing suppliers. Staff of Thos. Somerville let me buy Watts vac breaker instead of o-rings, and made sure I knew how to install it. It took me 5 minutes and 25 dollars to resolve my longtime headache. The company with superb expertise and friendly service is highly appreciated and strongly recommended. It’s interesting to learn that the company was established in 1861 - one of the oldest in DMV!

Extremely poor customer service in their kitchen and bath showroom. It was clear to me the woman on duty didn’t want to be bothered. I have money to spend on bath remodel and will take my business to Ferguson instead.

Went there today as I found them quite knowledgeable and helpful in the past. This time it was for a replacement hose for my shower hand held device. As it wasn't in their inventory and quite expensive as it was somewhat unique they showed me how I could buy it from Amazon and save $30. That continues an amazing string of help and will keep me going back.

Great service, would definitely shop here again. I'm not a plumber, but I was still treated with respect. They took time to match my part and talk to me about other options (e.g., cheaper workarounds). I ultimately decided to buy the factory part, but I appreciated them taking the time to talk through the options with me.

What a place for plumbing parts, large and small!!! A very nice man at the counter helped us buy a radiator bleeder valve (is that what it's called?) and he and my husband had a grand time talking about which one is better, make sure you have the right size, and all sorts of aspects of those things. We bought the last one on the shelf and he ordered more that will come in tomorrow for us and a few extra to have on hand. Parking was plentiful when we came, right at closing so everyone had gone home.
