Plumbers in Asheville, NC

6 local businesses listed

Plumbing problems in Asheville tend to trace back to two things: the age of the pipes and the cold. Older homes around town still have galvanized supply lines or cast iron drains, both of which fail from the inside where you can’t see them. And every few winters a cold snap parks over the mountains long enough to freeze lines in crawl spaces and exterior walls — which is where a lot of local plumbing runs, because that’s how houses were built here.

If you’re outside city water, there’s a third category: wells, pumps, and pressure tanks, plus septic in much of the county. Not every plumber works on well systems, so it’s worth asking before you have an emergency.

The plumbers listed serve Asheville, Alexander, and Mills River.

Before winter, find your main shutoff and make sure it turns. It’s a five-minute job that decides whether a burst pipe is a repair or a renovation, and most people go looking for that valve for the first time while water is coming through the ceiling.
