Plumber in Atlanta, GA

A&G Plumbing & Drain is a plumber in Atlanta, GA built around the city’s intown homes, from the Craftsman bungalows of Grant Park to the Victorians of Inman Park and the older houses tucked along the BeltLine. We are based in Marietta and have worked on Atlanta plumbing since 2006.

Plumbing Services in Atlanta, GA

Intown Atlanta runs on housing that is often 80 to 130 years old, so the plumbing under these floors needs someone who has actually worked on it. We handle water heater repair in Atlanta for everything from a tank crammed into a Virginia-Highland basement to a tankless unit in a renovated Cabbagetown shotgun house. If the hot water quits or you spot rust at the base of the tank, we can usually get out fast.

Slow and clogged drains are the call we get most. Our drain cleaning in Atlanta covers kitchen lines packed with grease, bathroom drains in 1920s homes, and the old cast iron stacks that scale up and choke down over the decades. When a clog keeps coming back, we camera the line instead of guessing.

For bigger trouble, we handle sewer line repair in Atlanta, plus whole-house repiping, leak detection, and toilet repair and replacement. We pull permits when the work calls for it and tell you plainly what a job needs.

Common Plumbing Problems in Atlanta Homes

The east-side intown ZIPs, 30306 around Virginia-Highland and Morningside, 30307 in Inman Park and Candler Park, 30312 in Grant Park and Cabbagetown, and 30316 in East Atlanta and Reynoldstown, hold some of the oldest housing stock in the city. Grant Park and Inman Park together carry the largest stretch of Victorian-era homes in Atlanta, and West End filled in with Queen Anne houses and bungalows after it was annexed in 1894. A lot of those homes still run on the original cast iron drains and galvanized supply lines, and both wear out from the inside.

Galvanized pipe rusts shut over time, which shows up as weak water pressure and brown water after the house sits empty. Cast iron drain stacks build scale and crack at the joints, so you get slow drains and the occasional backup. Out in the yard, the clay sewer laterals that served these neighborhoods are a magnet for tree roots, and the old oaks and water oaks all over the east side find every gap. A camera inspection tells us whether you are looking at a cleaning, a spot repair, or a full line replacement.

One thing worth knowing in Atlanta: the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management owns the sewer main, but the lateral from your house to the property line is your responsibility. When a backup starts at the cleanout, that buried lateral is usually where the problem lives, and that is the part we work on.

Plumbing Questions Atlanta Homeowners Ask

My intown home has galvanized pipes. Should I repipe?

If you have low pressure, discolored water, or pinhole leaks, repiping is often the fix. Many pre-1960 Atlanta homes still have galvanized supply lines that have rusted nearly shut. We inspect first and give you a flat-rate quote before any work begins.

Tree roots keep clogging my sewer line. What can be done?

Roots in old clay laterals are common across Grant Park, Inman Park, and the East Atlanta ZIPs. We run a camera to find the break, clear the roots, and recommend either a targeted repair or a full replacement depending on the pipe’s condition.

Do you offer same-day service?

When the schedule allows during business hours, Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm, we can often get a tech out the same day. Calling early in the day improves your odds of a same-day slot.

Who is responsible for my sewer line in Atlanta?

You own the lateral from your house to the property line, and the Department of Watershed Management owns the main beyond that. Most backups happen in the homeowner’s section, which is the part we repair.

How much does a plumbing repair cost?

We use flat-rate pricing, so you get the number before we start the work, not a surprise at the end. The price covers the job we quoted.
