Top Rated Plumbers in Asheville, North Carolina
Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Buncombe & Henderson Counties
160 Royal Pines Dr, Arden, NC 28704, USA
(828) 835-2871Jeremy from Mr Rooter was seriously awesome to work with. He first did a camera inspection but hit a blockage and then a full line cleaning, which then helped us see what was really going on with the camera, and then he carefully dug up under the driveway to confirm the actual issue. Turns out the construction next door had cracked my pipe under the driveway and because of his work I had the proof I needed to get it fixed by their crew. Even though he didn’t end up doing the repair himself, the investigation he did was super thorough and honestly saved me a ton of stress. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, didn’t try to upsell anything, and was professional and straightforward. The entire investigation and cleaning cost ~$800. If you need someone who actually cares about finding the real problem and helping you move forward, I’d definitely recommend Mr Rooter.
2 months agoHad Jeremy out to scoop our sewer line to see if there were any clogs. Not only did he fix the clog he spent hours going through our lines explaining any future issues we may have in giving us a full understanding of any concerns. Highly recommended for not only above and beyond service, but also for just getting to understand how your house functions.
2 months agoWe had an excellent experience with Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Buncombe & Henderson Counties installing new commercial power vent water heaters at our motel in Black Mountain. The entire process was smooth, professional, and efficient. Ryan was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything step by step before getting started, which gave us complete confidence in the work being done. The installation was done cleanly, on time, and to a very high standard. If you’re looking for a reliable, honest, and professional plumbing company for commercial work, I highly recommend Mr. Rooter. We will definitely use them again for future projects!
3 months ago1-Tom-Plumber
5134 Old Haywood Rd, Mills River, NC 28759, USA
(828) 214-7497Keean was super friendly and helpful in quickly diagnosing and snaking a clogged branch of our drainage system. I highly recommend 1-Tom-Plumber for their responsiveness and professional work. Keean came back to replace an old, leaky galvanized drain pipe with PVC and did a great job. Ensured everything was working before leaving. I’m very satisfied with the work! Louis came to repair a pipe where an improperly soldered valve had fallen off. He cut back two lines and did a great job on short notice!
4 months agoWe love working with Cindy Novak at 1 Tom Plumber! She is professional, responsive, and always dependable when our community needs service. Her team communicates clearly and gets the job done right the first time. Reliable, efficient, and a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend! 💖🪠😊
2 months agoSpencer did an excellent job fixing my water line. He came out promptly, assessed the issue quickly, and clearly explained what needed to be done before getting started. His work was efficient, thorough, and done right the first time. He was professional, respectful, and left the area clean when he finished. It’s such a relief to work with a plumber who’s knowledgeable and dependable. I highly recommend Spencer for any plumbing needs.
2 months agoBlue Planet Plumbing
1131 Sweeten Creek Rd, Asheville, NC 28803, USA
(828) 423-6289Everything about this experience has been excellent. (Should mention we were expecting to have to replace a hot water heater, so this was going to be $$$$$ no matter what) It started with the website- that actually contained informative info about hot water heater types and not just boilerplate, and an online scheduling system that was so easy. Next was their clear text communication and call before the appointment. Then our tech, Patrick, was great. He took the time to explain what he saw and why it was likely that way, then diagnosed it, and provided multiple possible solutions, at different levels of workload and price point. Then he worked patiently with our home warranty rep (don’t get me started on that 1-star pos company), and finally we set up payment and got financing options. We ended up getting the service subscription because the savings we got from the discount you get with that plan pays for the plan itself and more. So happy to have found our plumbers for life! Will gladly update this review after they complete the work. UPDATE: work is completed and it was more of the same great experience! Our tech Uber was a hard worker, communicated well and was dedicated. He pushed through a long day installing our water heater and even upgraded our system replacing some of our pex with copper. He ran out of time when replacing our shower cartridges but that was because they were a bit more challenging to remove since it had been too long since their last replacement and sediment had jammed them. So he had to come back, but when he did, both were replaced within 45 min and we were set. Even got to meet the owner George and can say, culture really does come from the top down. Our only snag in the whole process was calling the main line. If we choose the option for “appt for a previous estimate (1)” or “appt status update (4)”, we received an automated error of “extension 101 is unavailable” But when we relayed this on to Mary in billing (the menu option that did reach a person), she apologized and took ownership. We did get through on option 1 to Tierra (sp?) and she got us quickly to Uber to figure it appt details Overall this is a great plumbing group and I look forward to trusting them with future plumbing needs.
2 months agoWhen you’re dealing with an active plumbing leak, time matters and unfortunately our original plumbing contractor made us feel like it didn’t. They told us it would be over a week before they could even come out, and acted like our emergency wasn’t a big deal. That’s when Blue Planet Plumbing swooped in and truly saved the day. From the very first call, they treated our situation with urgency and care. They came out quickly, assessed the problem, and had everything lined up so a technician could return the very next day to handle the major repair. Now THAT is what I call GREAT SERVICE! Patrick Toomey came in like Superman, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly thorough. He diagnosed the issue right away and made us feel confident that everything was being handled correctly. Because of the outstanding service, quick response, and genuine care we received, Blue Planet Plumbing is now our forever plumbing company. We highly recommend them, especially Patrick Toomey, if you want the job done right and done fast. Thank you for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience! Joe & Vickie Serrone
3 months agoBlue Planet Plumbing is the Premier source for your plumbing needs. Arion came promptly to inspect what we thought would be a simple issue we had in our Master Bathroom, but turns out there would be a lot more work involved than expected. Arion was kind, courteous and knowledgeable about what needed to be done to get our shower back up and running. Luckily they had availability next week to get this resolved. The pricing was fair and I truly believe they have their clients best interests at heart. Choose Blue Planet Plumbing if you have an issue that needs to be resolved quickly and want your job to be handled professionally and with care.
3 months agoT.P. Howard's Plumbing Co., Inc.
90 Number 9 Rd, Fairview, NC 28730, USA
(828) 628-1369I had to drain my hot water heater due to severe icy & freezing cold weather. When the power came back, I got error codes. Austin with TP came out and fixed it! Neil is coming to set my filtration system before the snow and cold. Thanks so much! I always appreciate TP Howard staff
3 months agoAustin is Awesome!!!🏆 He came out to install a new taller toilet, bidet seat, and replaced our downstairs toilet. Austin was right on time, super pleasant, professional, and strong enough to easily lift the new 88 pound toilet out of my car. All the work was done to our complete satisfaction. We've used TP Howard's for over 6 years now; in the past, they replaced our water heater and have dup up and repaired a waterline leak under our driveway. We highly recommend them!
2 months agoMark & Jake showed up promptly and installed a sink in our garage for my pottery studio. They were polite, efficient and knowledgeable. Things went smoothly, but after they left we lost water pressure. I was surprised when Mark came right back and solved the problem with a new valve he had on the truck. Excellent service. I thought I was going to have deal with low pressure until a service call could be scheduled, but when Mark found out he came right back. Shows he has pride in his work. Great initiative! Thanks! Would highly recommend.
3 months agoAll About Plumbing - Mills River
5521 Old Haywood Rd Ste 1, Mills River, NC 28759, USA
(828) 778-2425I’ve thought about this review for a few days before posting it. As a small business owner myself, I understand how important reviews are, so I don’t leave them lightly. However, I can’t overlook my experiences with Richard W. from All About Plumbing. Last Wednesday we had a main line break in a 2-inch PVC line. I called All About Plumbing, and Richard answered. The conversation was a little rough from the start—maybe he was having a bad day, or maybe we just didn’t get off on the right foot. Either way, the interaction didn’t feel very welcoming. For context, the repair was a simple 16-inch splice with two couplers. We had already excavated the area and had equipment on site ready to assist with the repair. After explaining why the job was supposedly going to be very technical and difficult, Richard quoted $4,700 for the repair. That number felt extremely high, so we called Hometown Plumbers for a second opinion. We explained the situation and what had already been quoted. They stopped by Core & Main down the road, picked up a couple of bolt-on couplers for about $300 each, came to the site, and determined they weren’t even necessary. They installed two high-pressure PVC fittings and had the repair completed in about 20 minutes. Total cost: • $175 emergency call • $200 labor and parts $375 total The repair has held perfectly since Wednesday. I probably wouldn’t have written this review, but this was actually my second experience with Richard. A few years ago he came to my house to quote a water purification system. I remembered his face and the same unwelcoming tone. After a short visit he quoted $19,000 for the system. We ended up calling Four Seasons Plumbing. They were extremely professional, installed a large tank system with inline filters, replaced the main line, and performed before-and-after water testing. The difference was huge and the system has worked great for three years now. Their total install cost: $5,300. That’s a $13,700 difference. Richard may be a good person, but based on my experiences I wouldn’t feel comfortable having someone with that tone or pricing approach representing my business or interacting with my customers. This review may not impact the company one way or another, but based on my experiences I wouldn’t consider calling All About Plumbing again.
2 months agoMy well pump went out after the ice storm 1/27/26. All About Plumbing had a crew to assess the situation at my home in less than 3 hours. They determined the pump needed replacement and arranged to have a crew come the next day prepared to do the job. They had to make some logistics arrangements to make it down my icy road. Matt, Scott and Pete did a great job. They were well prepared and didn't stop working from the time they arrived until the job was done. They also brought my water system back into code. My wife and I were very impressed with the crew, their work ethic, professionalism and cleanliness. Would definitely recommend!
3 months agoMarco and his team went above and beyond identifying that our sewage system had collapsed and replacing the entire system. We highly recommend All About Plumbing. We have used this company several times and have been very satisfied.
6 months agoRoto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain Service
44 Buck Shoals Rd Unit H5, Arden, NC 28704, USA
(828) 348-7333Great experience with Roto Rooter! I booked my appointment via Yelp and they arrived on time as promised. They kept me updated on the technicians arrival time and were responsive by phone when I called to clarify my issue. Great results and technicians Connor & Finn completed my repair within 30 minutes!

8 months agoThis is how a service company should operate! The guys who came to my house were courteous, professional, and communicated well. They really respected my home by being very efficient and clean with their work. They showed me what they found via pipe camera, the immediate problems and potential future issues. I'm very happy with the quality of work and service provided. I highly recommend!
3 months agoI had a water leak in the line from the meter to the house (200 Ft). I called three companies and the first two immediately said they would have to dig a new line for $13,500 and $19,000 respectively. In comes Dylan Muller with Roto Rooter and offered to dig around the meter to see if he could find it. No one else had offered that. He had come back on a Sunday to finish and he found the leak and fixed it. Dylan is a great guy: smart, thoughtful, hard-working and incredibly polite and respectful. His knowledge of the problem and solutions to fix it were impressive. Roto Rooter and Dylan will be my first call from now on.

(828) 974-6147We had an amazing experience with PlumbSmart! Justin and Teddy replaced our water heater and a faulty valve in record time, and the entire process was smooth and stress-free. They were professional, knowledgeable, and clearly take pride in their work. What really impressed us was their incredible customer service. Not only did they handle the water heater and valve quickly and efficiently, but they also went above and beyond by fixing our sink garbage disposal and helping us drain our dishwasher. They made sure everything was working perfectly before they left. They explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and left the area clean when they were done. It’s hard to find dependable, honest professionals like Justin and Teddy. We truly appreciate their hard work and highly recommend this company to anyone needing plumbing services!
3 months agoI had a great experience with Plumbsmart . They had to reroute my water line , and put in a shut off valve in the house … I extremely impressed. One more huge fact, they were communicative and very respectful -TY
2 months agoNick was a pleasure to have as a serviceman and explained everything and cleaned up after. Made a tough job look easy. Company is not cheap but very professional. Could have saved some money if I had identified the size type of disposal required prior to his arrival but was unaware that was possible.
6 months agoMy Plumbers L.L.C.
1095 Hendersonville Rd Ste A3, Asheville, NC 28803, USA
(828) 708-7107This company is the best. They showed up when they said they would an upgraded my plumbing that was way overdue for an update. I worked with John Michael who was very gracious and didn’t remark on the old DIY plumbing my husband had maintained over the last 50 years. No sarcasm, etc I’d received from other vendors. I highly recommend this group. Thanks John.
3 months agoStephen fixed our Navien tankless hot water heater and performed a complete PM review after nine years without prior servicing. We had another plumbing service drop by a few years ago when we had a similar problem, but they could not determine how to fix the water heater. Stephen was outstanding and fixed the equipment and performed a complete cleanup of the filters and got the system working in just a few hours. Thank you.
3 months agoI’m new to the area and had a nasty plumbing problem that needed to be resolved quickly. Stephen was courteous and efficient, and explained everything before doing it. To my relief the problem was fixed in short order. I’m so grateful to have found this company. I give them the highest recommendation.
2 months agoProfessional Drain Cleaning in Asheville, North Carolina
Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville residents know that mountain living comes with unique plumbing challenges.

But we don't just give you a list; we proactively call these professionals to verify they are available and equipped to handle your specific drain emergency right now. From the River Arts District to the heights of Town Mountain, we ensure you get the help you need without the endless phone tag.
Common Drain Issues in Asheville, North Carolina
Asheville's lush, green canopy is part of its charm, but those ancient root systems are a nightmare for sewer lines. Many local homes experience invasive root growth that penetrates older clay or cast iron pipes, leading to slow drains and recurring backups.
In historic neighborhoods like Kenilworth and West Asheville, aging infrastructure is a common culprit. Over decades, cast iron pipes can develop scale and corrosion that snags debris, causing stubborn clogs that a simple store-bought plunger can't touch.
Asheville’s mountain water, while delicious, can sometimes contribute to mineral buildup within residential plumbing. This scale narrows the diameter of your pipes over time, significantly reducing flow and making your system more prone to total blockages.
With Asheville's vibrant food and craft brewery scene, many homes—especially those used as short-term rentals—deal with heavy grease and organic waste buildup. These 'fatbergs' in the kitchen line require professional hydro-jetting to fully clear the diameter of the pipe.
Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Asheville, North Carolina
Before the heavy spring rains hit the Blue Ridge, ensure your outdoor area drains and gutter downspouts are clear of debris to prevent basement flooding and foundation pressure.
With Asheville's high volume of summer visitors, your guest bathroom drains take a beating. Consider a proactive enzymatic cleaner to keep hair and soap scum from causing a mid-vacation backup.
As the leaves fall in autumn, be vigilant about keeping them away from your exterior sewer cleanout and driveway drains. Wet leaves can create a thick mat that quickly leads to localized flooding.
Asheville winters often see deep freezes. Ensure your pipes are well-insulated, especially in crawlspaces, as frozen drains can crack and lead to expensive water damage once the mountain thaw begins.
Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Asheville, North Carolina
Prices in Asheville typically vary based on the severity of the clog, the location of the blockage (e.g., main line vs. sink), and whether high-end equipment like hydro-jetting or sewer cameras are required.
Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning in Asheville, North Carolina
How quickly can a plumber reach my home in West Asheville?
Because we filter our network by your specific zip code, we identify the closest available pros first. Our verification service ensures that we only connect you with someone who has confirmed they can reach your Asheville neighborhood today.
Are your Asheville plumbers available for 24/7 emergencies?
Yes. We specifically scan for 24-hour availability and call the plumber to confirm they are actually on-call before we send them your way, saving you time during a late-night mountain plumbing crisis.
Do Asheville's older homes require special drain cleaning techniques?
Absolutely. Many Asheville homes have fragile cast iron or clay pipes. We verify that our plumbers are experienced with historic infrastructure and can offer gentler solutions like mechanical snaking or localized repairs when high-pressure jetting might be too risky.
What is the most common cause of clogged drains in Buncombe County?
Tree root intrusion is the leading cause due to our dense forest environment. We connect you with pros who specialize in root removal and sewer line camera inspections to prevent future issues.
How do I know the plumber you find is reputable?
We only work with a hand-selected network of 14 certified, licensed, and insured plumbers in the Asheville area. Our verification process ensures they have the local expertise and tools necessary to handle North Carolina's specific residential plumbing codes.
