Plumbing repair in Waterford, MI

A slow drain, a drip behind the wall or a sump pump that quits during a spring thaw. Most plumbing problems start small and get expensive when they sit. We've been fixing them for Waterford and Oakland County homeowners since 1983.

Our licensed master plumbers find the actual cause, tell you what it will take to fix it, and do the work so it holds. No upselling, no guesswork.

Services

What we handle

  1. 01

    Drain cleaning

    Kitchen, bath, floor and main sewer drains cleared. We get the clog out instead of pushing it further down the line.

  2. 02

    Leak detection and repair

    Water stains on the ceiling or a meter that keeps spinning. We track the leak to its source and repair it with as little damage to walls as we can manage.

  3. 03

    Pipe repair and repiping

    Burst, corroded or pinhole-leaking pipes repaired. When an older house has had one leak too many, we can repipe it.

  4. 04

    Sump pumps

    Repair, replacement and new installs. A working sump pump is what stands between a Michigan basement and a spring flood.

  5. 05

    Garbage disposals

    Jammed, humming, leaking or dead disposals repaired or swapped out.

  6. 06

    Toilets, faucets and fixtures

    Running toilets, dripping faucets, weak showers and new fixture installs, done clean and leak-free.

  7. 07

    Gas lines

    Gas line repair and new lines for ranges, dryers, water heaters and furnaces, installed and tested by licensed plumbers.

  8. 08

    Pre-purchase inspections and commercial plumbing

    Buying a house? We'll look over the plumbing before you sign. We also handle plumbing for shops, offices and other commercial buildings.

    We make the repair with quality parts, test it, and clean up after ourselves. The goal is that you don't have to call us back for the same problem.

FAQ

Common questions

Do you handle plumbing emergencies at night?

Yes. We're open 24 hours, 7 days a week. If a pipe bursts or a drain backs up at 3 a.m., call (248) 674-1971.

Why does my drain keep clogging?

Repeat clogs usually mean the problem is further down the line: grease buildup, tree roots or a sagging pipe. We clear it and tell you what's causing it so it stops coming back.

Should I repair a leaking pipe or repipe the house?

One leak is usually a repair. If you've had several leaks in older galvanized or corroded pipe, repiping can cost less over time. We'll tell you honestly which one makes sense.

Do you work on commercial buildings?

Yes. We do residential and commercial plumbing across Waterford, Clarkston and the rest of Oakland County.
