Emergency Plumbing (24/7)
Plumbing disasters don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Vermont Plumbing Pros provides true 24/7 emergency plumbing services across the entire state, from Burlington to Brattleboro and every town in between. When a pipe bursts at midnight on a February weekend or your basement starts flooding during a spring thaw, our licensed plumbers are already mobilizing to your location.
Common emergencies we handle include burst pipes from freezing temperatures, overflowing toilets, major leaks threatening structural damage, sewage backups, and water heater failures leaving you without hot water. Because emergency calls require immediate response and after-hours staffing, our emergency rates typically run $150–$250 for the service call plus hourly labor, with most urgent repairs completed within 1–3 hours. When disaster strikes, call (888) 217-3928 anytime—day, night, or holiday—and speak directly with a plumber, not an answering service.
Drain Cleaning
Slow drains and complete blockages are among the most common plumbing complaints in Vermont homes. Our professional drain cleaning service goes far beyond store-bought chemicals that can damage your pipes. Using professional-grade augers, hydro-jetting equipment, and video inspection technology, we clear blockages thoroughly and identify underlying problems before they return.
We solve kitchen sinks clogged with grease and food debris, bathroom drains blocked by hair and soap scum, main sewer line obstructions from tree roots, and laundry drains backing up with sediment. Routine drain cleaning typically costs $100–$200 per fixture, while main line clearing runs $250–$500 depending on access and severity. For recurring problems, we offer camera inspections ($150–$300) to pinpoint exactly what's happening inside your pipes. Don't let a small clog become a major backup—call (888) 217-3928 for fast, effective drain cleaning.
Water Heater Repair & Installation (Tank and Tankless)
Reliable hot water isn't a luxury in Vermont—it's essential for comfortable living through long, cold winters. Vermont Plumbing Pros repairs and installs both traditional tank water heaters and modern tankless systems, helping you choose the right solution for your household's needs and energy goals.
We fix pilot light failures, thermostat malfunctions, heating element burnouts, sediment buildup, pressure valve leaks, and rusty water discoloration. Tank water heater repairs generally run $150–$400, while new tank installations range $800–$1,500 depending on capacity. Tankless repairs average $200–$500, with installations typically $2,000–$3,500 including necessary venting and gas line upgrades. Tankless systems offer 20+ year lifespans and significant energy savings, making them increasingly popular for Vermont homeowners looking to reduce utility costs. Whether you need a quick repair or want to explore upgrading to tankless technology, our specialists will walk you through honest recommendations without pressure.
Leak Detection & Repair
Hidden leaks waste thousands of gallons of water annually and can cause devastating structural damage before you ever see evidence. Our advanced leak detection service uses acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and moisture meters to pinpoint leaks behind walls, under concrete slabs, and in underground lines without unnecessary destruction to your property.
We locate and repair pinhole leaks in copper piping, slab leaks threatening foundation integrity, leaking pipe joints behind finished walls, outdoor spigot and irrigation line leaks, and corroded galvanized pipe failures common in older Vermont homes. Simple accessible repairs start around $150–$300, while slab leak repairs or extensive repiping projects range from $500 to several thousand depending on access and materials. If your water bill spiked unexpectedly, you hear running water when fixtures are off, or notice mysterious damp spots, don't delay—undetected leaks compound damage exponentially. Contact us for precise detection and lasting repairs.
Toilet, Faucet & Fixture Services
Everyday fixtures see constant use and eventual wear. Vermont Plumbing Pros handles everything from simple washer replacements to complete fixture upgrades, ensuring your bathrooms and kitchens function properly and look their best.
We repair running toilets wasting hundreds of gallons monthly, weak flushes caused by mineral buildup, leaking faucet cartridges and valves, low water pressure from clogged aerators, cracked porcelain, and outdated fixtures ready for replacement. Faucet repairs typically cost $75–$150, toilet repairs $100–$250, and quality fixture replacements with professional installation range $200–$600 per unit. We install water-efficient models that reduce consumption and qualify for utility rebates. Whether you need a quick fix or want to refresh your space with modern fixtures, we carry reliable brands and back every installation with our workmanship guarantee.
Sewer Line Services
Your sewer line is the critical highway carrying waste away from your home, and when it fails, the consequences are immediate and unpleasant. Vermont Plumbing Pros provides complete sewer line diagnostics, repair, and replacement using both traditional excavation and trenchless technologies that minimize disruption to your landscaping and hardscaping.
We address tree root infiltration through cracked joints, bellied pipes collecting debris, collapsed sections from ground shifting or age, grease and foreign object blockages, and corroded cast iron or Orangeburg piping common in mid-century homes. Sewer cleaning and spot repairs run $300–$800, while trenchless pipe lining costs $80–$250 per linear foot and full replacement ranges $3,000–$7,000 depending on length, depth, and access. Our video inspections ($150–$300) take the guesswork out of sewer problems, showing you exactly what we're dealing with before any major work begins. If you notice multiple drains backing up simultaneously, gurgling sounds, or sewage odors, your main line needs professional attention immediately.
Sump Pump Services
Vermont's spring snowmelt, heavy rains, and high water tables make functional sump pumps non-negotiable for homes with basements or crawl spaces. We install, repair, and maintain sump pump systems that protect your foundation, prevent mold growth, and preserve your home's value and air quality.
Our services cover failed or burned-out pumps, stuck float switches, discharge line freezing or clogging, inadequate pump capacity for your water volume, battery backup system installation, and pedestal-to-submersible upgrades. Basic sump pump repairs cost $150–$300, new standard installations $400–$800, and premium systems with battery backup range $800–$1,500. We recommend annual testing before spring thaw and offer maintenance plans to ensure your system performs when needed most. A failed sump pump during a heavy rain event can cause tens of thousands in damage—proactive service is inexpensive insurance.
Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing
Whether you're renovating a century-old farmhouse kitchen or updating a bathroom in a modern condo, Vermont Plumbing Pros brings the expertise to execute your project properly from rough-in to finish. We handle complete remodel plumbing, new construction, and targeted upgrades with attention to both functionality and code compliance.
Our kitchen services include dishwasher and refrigerator water line installation, garbage disposal replacement, pot filler and instant hot water taps, and island sink venting solutions. Bathroom projects encompass shower and tub valve replacement, walk-in shower conversions, freestanding tub installation, double vanity rough-ins, and accessibility modifications. Small kitchen or bathroom updates typically run $500–$2,000, while full remodel plumbing ranges $3,000–$8,000 depending on fixture quality and layout changes. We coordinate seamlessly with your contractor or serve as your primary plumbing partner, pulling permits and ensuring everything flows perfectly—literally.
