Burst pipes, active leaks, and stubborn drains — Lawson Plumbing & Drain fixes the problem and keeps your home dry.
Burst pipes, active leaks, and backed-up drains handled fast — plus water heaters, sump pumps, and sewer lines for homes across Grand Rapids and nearby towns.
When water is where it shouldn't be, you need a plumber who knows Grand Rapids homes and picks up the phone. Lawson Plumbing & Drain handles the everyday and the urgent — dripping faucets, running toilets, clogged mains, dead water heaters, and burst pipes that can't wait.
We work across Grand Rapids, Wyoming, Kentwood, and nearby communities, Monday through Saturday. Call (616) 555-2829 and talk through the problem with someone who does this all day — then we get it scheduled and solved.
When water won't stop, minutes matter. We prioritize active leaks and burst pipes across Grand Rapids.
A burst supply line or a leak spreading across the ceiling can't wait for a callback. We come out fast, shut the water down safely, and repair the source — from split copper and failed shutoffs to leaking joints under sinks and in walls. You get a straight explanation of what failed and exactly what it takes to make it right, so the same problem doesn't return next week.
Call (616) 555-2829Slow drains and gurgles often start at the sewer line. We find out why.
Repeated backups, sewer smells, or water pooling in the yard usually trace back to your main line. We diagnose household sewer line concerns for older Grand Rapids homes with root intrusion, bellied pipe, and aging clay — then explain your real options in plain terms. No guessing and no upselling: just a clear picture of the line's condition and what the fix involves.
Call (616) 555-2829West Michigan storms test every sump pump. We test yours before it fails.
A sump pump only matters when it's raining hard — and that's exactly when a worn one quits. We test, repair, and replace residential sump pumps so your basement stays dry through Grand Rapids' wet seasons. That includes checking the float, the check valve, and the discharge line, and recommending a battery backup when a finished basement is on the line.
Call (616) 555-2829Tank or tankless, sized right for your household.
When a heater is beyond repair, we guide you to the right replacement instead of just the cheapest box on the shelf. We size the unit to your household, walk through standard tank versus tankless, and handle the install to code with proper venting and connections. You end up with reliable hot water and a heater that fits how your family actually uses it.
Call (616) 555-2829Jams, leaks, hums — we sort out the disposal.
A disposal that hums, leaks under the sink, or won't turn at all brings the whole kitchen to a halt. We diagnose jammed, leaking, and nonworking units, clear what's stuck, and reset or replace the motor and mounting as needed. If a repair isn't worth it, we'll tell you plainly and swap in a properly sized unit that handles your household's kitchen load.
Call (616) 555-2829A running toilet wastes gallons a day. Let's stop it.
Running, leaking, clogged, or unreliable — a bad toilet quietly wastes water and rattles nerves. We repair phantom flushes, worn flappers and fill valves, weeping bases, and stubborn clogs, and we reset or reseal the toilet when the wax ring has failed. Simple problems get simple fixes so you're not living around a bathroom you can't trust.
Call (616) 555-2829High bill and no visible leak? We track it down.
A climbing water bill, a damp spot, or a meter that spins with everything off points to a hidden leak. We run targeted troubleshooting for both visible and hidden plumbing leaks — under slabs, behind walls, and inside supply lines — so you're not tearing open drywall on a hunch. You get a located problem and a focused repair instead of expensive guesswork.
Call (616) 555-2829Kitchen, bath, or main line — cleared and flowing.
Slow sinks, gurgling tubs, and backed-up main drains never fix themselves. We clear kitchen, bathroom, and main line clogs — grease, hair, soap, and buildup — and get water moving the way it should. When a drain keeps clogging, we look at why so you're not calling us back for the same sink every couple of months.
Call (616) 555-2829Standard or tankless, diagnosed and repaired.
Lukewarm showers, rumbling tanks, or no hot water at all — we diagnose and repair standard and tankless water heaters. That covers failed elements and thermocouples, faulty valves, sediment buildup, and pilot problems. Where a repair makes sense, we make it; where a unit is at the end of its life, we say so honestly instead of patching a heater that's about to leak.
Call (616) 555-2829Weak shower? We find the real cause.
Low or inconsistent pressure has a cause — and it's rarely the one people assume. We track down the likely culprits: clogged aerators, a failing pressure regulator, corroded galvanized pipe, or a hidden leak dropping supply. Instead of throwing parts at it, we find what's actually choking the flow so your showers and faucets deliver the pressure your home should have.
Call (616) 555-2829“They came out for our water pressure troubleshooting and had it sorted in one visit.”
“Great experience with the water heater repair.”
“We've used them twice now, most recently for drain cleaning.”
“Quick response when I called about sump pump service.”
Thirty-two years working on West Michigan homes means we know the pipe, the soil, and the seasonal problems that hit this area — and we've seen your issue before.
We explain what failed, what the fix takes, and what it doesn't need. When a repair beats a replacement, we tell you — and vice versa.
