Plumber in Kennesaw, GA

A Kennesaw plumber from a family shop, not a call center
Kennesaw sits at the south end of our service area, about half an hour down I-575 and Highway 92 from our shop on Valley Street in Ball Ground. We work the whole city: the older homes off Main Street and around Kennesaw Mountain, the subdivisions along Barrett Parkway and Cobb Parkway, the neighborhoods out Pine Mountain Road and Mars Hill Road toward Due West and Acworth, and the apartments and rentals around Kennesaw State University on Chastain Road. The plumber who shows up is a licensed tech from our own crew, not a subcontractor dispatched from the other side of Atlanta. Performance Plumbing is licensed and insured (Georgia master plumber license MP210684), a real person answers the phone 24 hours a day, and we do not charge a service call fee. You get a flat rate quote before any work starts, and the number you hear is the number you pay.
Every plumbing service, one licensed company
Everything on this site is available in Kennesaw: water heater repair and installation, tankless water heaters, slab leak detection and repair, water line repair, drain cleaning, sewer camera inspections, sewer line repair, repiping, gas lines, kitchen plumbing, water filtration and commercial plumbing. One company, one license, one number.
Water heater installation and repair in Kennesaw
Water heaters are the most common Kennesaw call we get. Tank units in the subdivisions built through the 1990s and 2000s are past the ten to twelve year mark, and the signs are always the same: hot water running out early, rust colored water on the hot side, popping sounds from sediment, or water in the pan. We repair what is worth repairing and replace what is not, and we tell you which one before any work starts. A water heater that is leaking from the tank itself is worth a same day call, before a slow leak becomes a flooded garage or basement.
Tankless water heater installation and repair in Kennesaw
We install and service tankless units across Kennesaw, and we check gas line size and venting before anything else, because a tankless heater needs more gas than the tank it replaces and a rushed install is why people end up unhappy with them. If your tankless unit is throwing an error code, short cycling or losing temperature in the shower, we service the common brands, stock the common parts, and handle the annual flush and descaling that keeps the heat exchanger clean and the warranty valid.
Slab leak detection and repair
A warm spot on the floor, a water bill that jumped with no change in use, the sound of running water when everything is off, or a crack working across a tile floor: those are the slab leak signs we hear from Kennesaw homeowners on slab foundations. We locate the leak with electronic detection before anyone cuts concrete, then repair the line or reroute it overhead so the slab stays closed where it can.
Water line repair and repiping
A main water line that drops pressure or leaves a soggy strip in the front yard gets found and repaired, and where the line has reached the end of its life we replace it. Inside the house, polybutylene (the grey plastic pipe from the late 1970s to mid 1990s) and old galvanized steel are where Kennesaw repipes start, replaced with PEX or copper and new shutoffs at every fixture. We give you the whole-house price up front so there is no surprise mid-job.
Drain cleaning, sewer camera inspections and sewer line repair
One slow drain or a clogged toilet gets a cable machine the same day. A main line that keeps backing up gets a camera before anything else, so you see the pipe yourself and nobody sells you a sewer line replacement for a root ball that hydro jetting would have cleared. When the line really is broken, we repair the section that failed or replace the run, and we show you the footage either way.
Water filtration for Kennesaw homes
Hard water scale on fixtures, chlorine taste, and spotted glassware are the usual reasons Kennesaw homeowners ask about whole house filtration and softening. We size the system to the house and the water, install it at the main, and set it up so the water heater and the tankless unit last longer too.
Emergency plumbing, 24 hours a day
A burst pipe, a water heater that let go, or sewage coming up a floor drain does not wait for business hours. A real person answers the phone 24 hours a day and an emergency plumber comes out at any hour. There is still no service call fee and you still get the flat rate quote before any work starts.

Kennesaw plumbing questions we hear every week
Do you charge a service call fee in Kennesaw?
No. We come out, diagnose the problem and give you a flat rate quote before any work starts. If you decide not to move forward, you owe nothing for the visit.
How fast can a plumber get to Kennesaw?
Our shop in Ball Ground is about half an hour from Kennesaw by I-575 and Highway 92, and for emergencies a plumber comes out at any hour.
Do you replace water heaters in Kennesaw the same day?
A leaking or failed water heater is treated as a same day call. We tell you before any work starts whether yours is worth repairing or needs replacing, and we install both tank and tankless units.
Do you install tankless water heaters in Kennesaw?
Yes. We install and service tankless units and we check gas line size and venting first, because the unit needs more gas than the tank it replaces. We also descale and repair existing tankless heaters.
How do I know if I have a slab leak?
A warm spot on the floor, a water bill that jumped with no change in use, the sound of running water when everything is off, or low pressure on one side of the house. We locate the leak electronically before anyone cuts concrete.
Do you repair main water lines in Kennesaw?
Yes. We find and repair leaking or broken main water lines between the meter and the house, and we replace lines that have reached the end of their life. You get the full price before we dig.
How do I know if my sewer line needs to be replaced?
You do not know until a camera goes down the line. Repeated backups, gurgling, sewage smell or a soft spot in the yard are reasons to look. We run the camera, show you the footage, and recommend jetting, a spot repair or a replacement based on what is actually there.
Do you install water filtration systems in Kennesaw?
Yes. Whole house filtration and softening systems are sized to the house and the water, installed at the main, and set up so the water heater and fixtures last longer.
Do you work on commercial buildings in Kennesaw?
Yes. Restaurants, retail, offices and rental properties along Barrett Parkway, Cobb Parkway and Main Street get the same licensed crew, flat rate quote and 24 hour emergency response.
Is Performance Plumbing licensed and insured?
Yes. Georgia master plumber license MP210684, fully insured, drug tested and background checked technicians, family owned and based in Ball Ground since 2015.
