Around-the-clock emergency service dispatched for Kernstown homeowners facing burst or frozen pipes, sewer or septic backups, well-pump failures, or no-water situations, day or night, weekends and holidays, with no after-hours fees.

Plumbing Repairs
Expert diagnosis and repair of leaks, fixtures, and supply problems, with our plumbers trained to resolve up to 90% of issues on the first visit.
Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting
Drain cleaning and hydro jetting with camera inspection to clear recurring clogs and find the real cause.
Water Heaters
Water heater repair, replacement, and installation, including tankless systems, the Valley's hard water deposits scale that shortens a heater's life, so sizing and maintenance matter.
Sewer & Septic Service
Sewer line repair and replacement, trenchless options, and septic service for the county's many septic-connected homes.
Piping, Repiping & Frozen Pipes
Pipe repair and whole-home repiping for aging galvanized and lead-era systems, plus frozen-pipe repair through cold Shenandoah Valley winters.
Leak Detection
Non-destructive leak detection and hidden and slab leak repair that pinpoint basement, wall, and buried-line leaks before we cut into anything.
Water Treatment & Softeners
Water softeners and filtration for the limestone-hard water common across the Valley, plus iron and sulfur treatment for homes on private wells.
Well Pumps & Water Systems
Well pump repair and replacement and pressure-tank service for the many Frederick County homes on private wells.
Gas Lines
Gas line repair, replacement, and installation for ranges, water heaters, generators, and outdoor features.
Sump Pumps & Backups
Sump pump installation and repair, including battery backups and ejector pumps, to keep basements and crawlspaces dry through wet weather and snowmelt.
Fixtures, Faucets, Toilets & Disposals
Faucets, toilets, sinks, and garbage disposals repaired and installed.
Commercial Plumbing
Commercial plumbing service for area businesses, restaurants, retail, and multi-family properties.

Kernstown's developed character means most homes and businesses are on Frederick Water, drawn from the county's limestone quarry reservoirs and wells, with the usual Valley hard water that makes softeners a common residential request. The area's growth has brought retail centers, restaurants, and offices that depend on reliable commercial plumbing and fast emergency response, because a failure here can mean lost revenue.

On the residential side, Kernstown's neighborhoods range from older homes with aging pipe to newer subdivisions reaching water-heater-replacement age. Basements over the Valley's soils make sump pumps worthwhile for lower-lying homes, and cold winters bring frozen-pipe risk to exposed runs.

Linda Burns

I highly recommend this company. They were quick and responsive in scheduling my service, and the plumber they sent out was fantastic. Sometimes it’s hard to find a plumber, but search no more. Use them! I certainly will use them again. Most importantly, their prices are very reasonable and competitive.

W P

Outstanding experience! A polite young man Mr. Amado handled a small repair for us, and everything went seamlessly. Scheduling through the call center was quick, communication was stellar, and the pricing and workmanship were top-notch. As someone who has worked in the service industry for a long time, I truly appreciate the commitment to customer service and communication training shown here. The quality of work still needs to stand the test of time, but the overall experience was 10 out of 10. I won't hesitate to use them again!

Brian Ridenour

Daniel was great!! He was very prompt and explained the workings of the new water heater. The company is awesome. Now you could find a cheaper water heater and cheaper labor but I tried one of those water heaters from the big box store and it failed after only 4 years. The ones that Benjamin Franklin sells are MADE IN THE USA instead of a foreign country. Give them a try, you won’t be sorry!

Dennis Sen

10/10, no doubt about it. Lucas was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. We had an issue with our water heater that left us without hot water or heat this fall. He quickly diagnosed the problems, explained his findings in excellent detail, and got everything fixed. He also went the extra mile in a couple of ways I didn’t expect, which I really appreciated. I’d absolutely recommend Lucas!

Refind Vintage

We had our water heater repaired and had a new water filter system installed after the technician suggested it. He was friendly and factual. After his visit we had to have another repair man to set the water heater temperature. Now it is working fine.

Suzyn Purdy

Christian was a very kind and pleasant young man. He did an exceptional job replacing my kitchen sink faucet and incinerator. He was thorough and helped to get the smell out of our pipes I would recommend him for any job.

Larry Murphy

Our plumber, Jared was efficient and understood our issue quickly! Very respectful of us and property and we highly recommend this company.

Jeremiah Fisher

A full gas water heater installation -- quick install with courteous service. Jon Hare and Luke Stelly gave excellent advice and were finished with the install in less 3 hours (including purchasing the unit itself)! Thanks!

Tammy Spencer

Luke was awesome! I am so happy that I picked your company to do my repair! I will be using your company again. Thank you for your awesome service! I would highly recommend your company to anyone needing service done at their home!

Paula Thompson

The guys were personable, have plumbing experience and seemed knowledgeable of the situation.
