Water heaters, drains, and sewer lines, and nothing else
We do one trade, and we do it narrowly: water heaters, drains, and sewer lines for homes in Woodstock and Cumming. That focus is not a marketing line. It is the reason the crew that arrives at your house has seen your exact problem many times before, and it is the reason our advice stays honest about what we can fix well and what we cannot. If your problem sits outside this scope, we will tell you that plainly rather than taking a job we are not sharp on.
Each service below has its own page with full detail. This hub is the map: what each service covers, when it is the right call, and where to read more. Pricing factors for all of them live on the cost guide, and the questions we hear most often are answered on the FAQs.

Water heater installation
A new water heater installation starts with sizing, not with a product pick. We ask how your household uses hot water at its busiest, what fuel the house already has, where the unit will sit, and what venting path is available. A tank unit is sized by storage plus recovery. A tankless unit is sized by flow at winter incoming water temperature. Both calculations matter, and both are done from your real use rather than from square footage alone.
Installation covers gas and electric units, venting checks, gas-line sizing checks, expansion tank assessment where your system calls for it, disposal of an old unit where there is one, and testing at a fixture before we leave. Warranty terms are explained before you choose: tank warranties usually come as 6 or 12 year manufacturer options, and we explain what each option covers so you are not buying a longer piece of paper without understanding what it means.

Water heater replacement
When an old tank leaks from the tank body, delivers rusty water, or rumbles heavily from sediment, the honest verdict is usually replacement. But not every no-hot-water call is a replacement. A failed element, a faulty thermostat, or a tripped reset can all leave a house cold with a tank body that is still sound, and we check those first. A replacement visit starts with that verdict, made on site from the condition of the unit, not from a label alone.
The swap itself covers isolation, draining, removal, a fresh venting and gas-line check for the new unit, connection, leak testing under pressure, and disposal of the old tank. We also use the visit to talk about the maintenance that keeps the new tank alive longer: sediment flushing on a schedule and anode rod checks, since the anode rod is the sacrificial part that protects the tank steel from corrosion.

Tankless water heater
A tankless unit heats water only when you need it, so hot water does not run out because a tank emptied, and no tank is kept hot all day. The fit depends on three checks: gas supply, venting, and winter flow demand. A tankless burner at full fire consumes gas at a rate no standard tank burner approaches, so the gas line must be sized for it. Venting must match the unit's requirements, not the old tank's vent path. And the unit must be sized for winter incoming water temperature and simultaneous use, not for a single summer shower.
Tankless maintenance matters in this area because hard water scale builds inside the heat exchanger. We show you the service valves and explain descaling during installation, so it becomes a known routine rather than a surprise repair. If a tankless unit cannot honestly cover your household's simultaneous demand, we will say so and talk through the tank options instead.

Sewer line replacement
A sewer line replacement starts with a camera run, because the footage decides the method. Roots, bellies, offsets, cracks, and collapses each point to a different fix, and some point to trenchless methods while others point to an open trench. Pipe lining creates a new pipe inside the old one and works best when the old pipe still holds its shape. Pipe bursting pulls a new pipe through the old line. An open trench is the honest answer when the pipe has collapsed, when the grade must be corrected, or when access does not allow a trenchless pull.
Whatever the method, we show you the footage before work starts, explain the access and restoration plan, handle permits where required, and camera the finished work so the replacement is verified rather than assumed. A line that keeps blocking after repeated cleanings is often a pipe that has failed, and the camera is how we prove that before you pay for a replacement.

Drain cleaning
Drain cleaning is where most Woodstock households first meet us, and it is covered in depth on our Woodstock home page for drain cleaning Woodstock. The approach is camera-first when a problem repeats or the cause is unclear: cable work for soft blockages, jetting for grease or scale along a long run, and a full-flow test after clearing, not a dribble, before we call the job done. Kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and main lines each fail their own way, and we treat them differently rather than running the same pass at every drain.
Cumming households can read the drain cleaning support section on our Cumming page, which covers Cumming drain patterns, including roots from oaks and pines and the effect of red clay soil on yard lines.
Leak detection support
Leak detection is a support service for us, not a standalone money page, and it is worth explaining what that means. When a homeowner suspects a leak, the first job is narrowing down where water is going and whether the leak is in a water heater connection, a visible fixture supply, a drain line, or a buried line. We use the signs on site: water meter movement with fixtures off, damp spots, warm patches on a floor near a hot line, and the pattern of when the symptom appears. Camera inspection helps where the suspect line is a drain or sewer line, because the footage shows the failure directly.
Some leak situations belong with a dedicated leak specialist, particularly slab leaks and hidden supply leaks that need acoustic or thermal locating equipment. When the evidence points that way, we will say so rather than pretending a general look is a location. When the leak traces to a water heater connection, a drain, or a sewer line within our scope, we fix it within that scope and explain what we found. If you suspect a leak, describe the symptom when you call: where the dampness is, when it appeared, and whether the water meter moves with everything off. That history narrows the search faster than any tool alone.
Where we work, and how to book
Our home base is Woodstock in Cherokee County, and our Forsyth County footprint is Cumming. The areas hub covers both towns and how we serve each one. Upfront pricing before work starts applies on every service on this page.
You can reach us through the form on the contact page or by calling (770) 555-0100. Tell us which service you need, which fixtures or units are involved, and how long the problem has been building. That short history helps us bring the right tools and start in the right place.
We do not do general plumbing beyond water heaters, drains, and sewer lines. That boundary is what keeps every service on this page sharp, and it is why the crew that handles your job does this exact work every day.
