Gilkin Plumbing & Heating - Philadelphia's Reliable Plumbing Repair

Slow bathroom drains in Philly are often caused by years of soap scum, hair, and mineral buildup common in our older pipes. At Gilkin Plumbing & Heating, we start with a detailed plumbing inspection using camera technology to pinpoint the exact blockage. We then perform a thorough repair or cleaning, and for severe cases, we can expertly replace the affected section of pipe to restore proper drainage and prevent future issues.

Absolutely. In older Philly homes, corroded pipes can restrict water flow and cause inconsistent temperatures. Installing a hot water recirculation pump ensures hot water is available on-demand at your faucets, reducing the strain on your pipes from running water for long periods to get it hot. Our expert installation minimizes wait times and can help extend the life of your existing plumbing system while we assess any necessary repairs for corrosion.

For Philadelphia row homes, space and efficiency are key. During our consultation, we assess your specific hot water needs and the physical constraints of your home to recommend the right unit—whether tankless for compact spaces or a high-efficiency traditional model. Our professional installation ensures optimal performance, addresses any local code requirements, and includes a check of your home's existing pipes for corrosion that could affect your new system's longevity.
