Tysons is Northern Virginia's biggest business district and a growing place to live. It sits between McLean and Vienna where Route 7, Route 123 and the Capital Beltway meet, with four Silver Line Metro stations. Thousands of residents live in mid-rise and high-rise condos and apartments, alongside older townhomes and single-family streets at its edges. We bring the same leak detection in McLean skills to stacked buildings, where water travels in ways that surprise people.
Why plumbing in Tysons is different
In a high-rise, kitchens and bathrooms are stacked floor over floor. A leak from a toilet seal, shower pan or water heater on one floor can appear on a ceiling one or two floors down. Water also follows pipes and slabs sideways, so the stain is not always under the source.
Many condos have water heaters in small closets with no floor drain, so a failing tank can soak carpet and the unit below. Shared risers and building pumps belong to the association, while fixtures and branch lines inside a unit often belong to the owner. Your association documents set the line.
Townhomes and single-family homes at the edges of Tysons have more typical issues: basement water heaters, sump pumps and aging supply pipe.

Tips for Tysons condo and townhome owners
- Find your unit shutoffs. Know where the valves are for the whole unit, the water heater and each fixture.
- Add a drain pan and leak sensor. A water heater pan and a small sensor alarm give early warning in a closet.
- Replace supply hoses. Old rubber hoses to washers, sinks and toilets fail often; braided lines last longer.
- Report stains fast. Tell management and neighbors early, before more drywall and flooring get wet.
- Keep records. Photos, dates and repair invoices help with association and insurance questions.
Condo leaks and insurance
Condo leaks often involve two owners and an association. Who pays depends on where the leak began, what your governing documents say and what each policy covers. We give you a clear written finding of where the water came from, which is what management and insurers usually ask for.
Older homes around the edges of Tysons
Not everyone in Tysons lives in a tower. Streets off Route 7, Old Courthouse Road and Westpark Drive have townhomes and single-family houses from the 1960s through the 1990s. These homes face the same issues as nearby McLean and Vienna: basement water heaters near the end of their life, sump pumps working hard after storms, pinhole leaks in aging copper and service lines that run under mature trees. If your home has a basement and a yard, our water line repair and sump pump repair pages cover what to check.

Water is coming through my condo ceiling. What should I do?
Tell the unit owner above and your building management right away, then call us. Shut off water to your own unit if the leak could be yours. We find which unit and which fixture or pipe is leaking.
Who pays for a leak between condo units?
It depends on where the leak started and on your association documents and insurance. Keep photos and our findings. Your association's management and your insurance agent can explain who covers what.
Do you work in high-rise buildings?
Yes, for plumbing inside your unit. Shared risers, booster pumps and building systems belong to the association, so we coordinate with building engineering when a problem reaches them.
Where is the water shutoff in my Tysons condo?
Many units have shutoffs at the water heater closet, under sinks, behind an access panel or in a utility closet. If you cannot find one, building management can show you. Find it before you need it.
