Homes around River, Kentucky tend to be older and further apart, which changes the job. Longer water service runs, more private wells, more frozen pipe calls in January. A plumber who only works new construction is out of his depth here.
What you actually get when you call us.
This started as two people and a truck in 1998 and grew on water, sewer and drain work. Nearly three decades in one trade, not a franchise name bought off a shelf last year.
Burst pipes and sewage backups do not wait for business hours. The phone is answered at night and on weekends, and the first thing you get is help finding your shutoff.
Sewer and drain problems get a camera down the line first, and you see the screen. Nobody trenches a yard on a guess when a fifteen minute look will show the break.
Told you need a full repipe or a new sewer line? Get it looked at again. Sometimes it is a smaller fix, and sometimes we confirm the first plumber was right so you can spend with confidence.
Every job goes to a licensed, insured plumbing contractor who pulls the permits your town requires. Licence numbers are on the invoice, not buried on a webpage.
What you probably want to know before you book.
That is the classic hidden leak — usually a slab leak, an underground service line, or a toilet flapper passing water quietly all night. A River leak detection visit puts a pressure gauge on the system and finds it without digging up the yard first.
Yes, and it starts with an actual water test rather than a guess. Hardness, iron and sulfur all need different equipment, so the River system gets sized off what is really in your water.
Yes. Burst pipes, sewage backups and no-water calls in River are answered around the clock. The first thing on the phone is getting your main shutoff closed so the house stops taking damage while a truck is on the way.
Yes — well pumps, pressure tanks and pressure switches are regular work. Short cycling, no pressure and a pump that will not shut off are the three most common calls we take from well owners near River.
You get a price for the repair before any work starts, not an hourly meter that runs while you watch. The diagnostic visit in River is quoted up front on the phone, and if you approve the repair that visit charge goes toward the job.
Yes. A River repipe runs room by room so the house never loses water for more than a few hours at a stretch. Old galvanized and polybutylene are the two we replace most.
The work speaks, but so do the people who paid for it.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Good work on the sewer line, camera first so I could see the root ball myself. Took a day longer than quoted because of the rain, but they called me both mornings instead of leaving me guessing."
"Bill jumped forty dollars with nobody home. They found a slab leak under the hallway in about twenty minutes with a listening device. No jackhammering until they knew exactly where."
