About Allen and Sons Plumbing in Columbus, OH

Columbus's hard water causes mineral scale to build up inside your water heater tank, reducing efficiency, increasing energy bills, and shortening its lifespan. Allen and Sons can perform a professional water heater inspection, flush the tank to remove sediment, and recommend solutions like water softeners or tankless models better suited for our local water conditions to ensure reliable hot water.

To prevent the common issue of frozen pipes in our Columbus winters, we offer key preventative services. This includes insulating exposed water pipes in attics, basements, and crawl spaces, performing a pre-winter plumbing inspection to identify vulnerable lines, and installing or repairing sump pumps to manage groundwater that can contribute to freezing issues in foundations.

Often, slow drains in Columbus homes are caused by hard water mineral buildup rather than a broken pipe. Our team can first attempt to clear the scale through professional hydro-jetting or other repair methods. If the pipes are severely compromised, we can then discuss partial or full drain pipe replacement. We always aim for the most effective and cost-efficient solution for your home.
