Plumber in Murfreesboro, TN

Simply Plumbing does residential service work only, so every job on the schedule is somebody's house. We aren't splitting our week between job sites and big contracts, which means your water heater or leaking line gets our full attention. Here's what Murfreesboro homeowners call us for most often.

• Tankless water heaters. We install mostly Rinnai units and know them inside and out. Because Simply Plumbing is a small shop with low overhead, a tankless water heater installation usually comes in well under what the big companies quote, without cutting corners on the install itself.
• Tank water heater replacement. Gas or electric, in the garage, a closet or the attic. Installed properly and covered by a one-year warranty.
• Gas lines. Most people don't realize plumbers handle gas. We run new gas lines for ranges, dryers, grills and water heaters, and we track down and fix leaks after the gas company has locked a meter.
• Drain and sewer cleaning. Small and large drain machines, plus a sewer camera and locator to show what's causing a clog and exactly where it sits.
• Everyday repairs. Running toilets, dripping faucets, worn-out garbage disposals, and water pressure that's too high or too low. We treat a small plumbing repair with the same care as a full repipe.
• Repiping and water filtration. Whole-house repipes for homes with failing pipe, and whole-house filtration and softener systems, including SpringWell.

Simply Plumbing grew out of years working for larger plumbing companies, and it was built around fixing the parts of those service calls that customers liked least. There's no dispatcher handing you off, no sales visit before the real visit, and no charge just for showing up. Here's how a call goes from the first phone call to the finished job.

Most calls follow that exact path. Bigger projects, like a repipe or a tankless conversion, just get a little more conversation up front so you know what the job involves, how long it will take, and what the house will look like while the work is happening.

Murfreesboro's housing covers a lot of ground, and the plumbing problems change with the age of the house. We work on both ends of it.

Older homes near downtown and around the MTSU area can still have original pipe and drains that have been repaired more than once. Newer homes in Blackman, Siegel and the subdivisions off the main roads usually have modern pipe, but they come with their own wear points, like original water heaters that are starting to give out. Here's what that looks like in practice.

• Water heaters on their way out. Rust at the base, rumbling noises, not enough hot water, or a tank that's simply old. We can tell you whether it's worth repairing or time to replace, and whether tankless makes sense for your household.
• Leaks and pressure problems. Water pressure that's too high wears out fixtures and supply lines, and pressure that's too low makes every shower a chore. Both have a cause that can be found and fixed.
• Slow or backed-up drains. A camera inspection shows whether it's a simple clog or something in the line that will keep coming back.
• Older pipe that keeps failing. When leaks show up in a new spot every few months, a repipe often costs less in the long run than chasing repairs.

Murfreesboro has no shortage of plumbing companies. What makes Simply Plumbing different is mostly what's missing: no service fee, no sales team, and no runaround about what your repair is going to cost.

It's a small, owner-run shop, and that's the point. When you call, you're dealing with the person responsible for the work, start to finish.

Every job gets the same attention, whether it's a single faucet washer or a whole-house repipe.

• A plumber, not a salesman. The person in your house is a licensed Tennessee plumber (LLP #4109), not someone working on commission.
• A real troubleshooter. Simply Plumbing is who people call when a problem has already stumped somebody else.
• Respect for your home. Well groomed, well spoken and professional. We park on the street, keep dirt off your floors, and won't leave oil spots on your driveway.
• Local through and through. Locally owned, rooted in the area and based in Murfreesboro. This is home, not just a service territory.

Murfreesboro is home for us, and building a client list in our own town is a big part of why Simply Plumbing exists. Few places in Middle Tennessee mix old and new quite like it does. A house a few blocks off the courthouse square may have plumbing that's been patched for decades, while a home in a newer subdivision out toward Blackman is still on its original water heater. We enjoy working on both.

A few of the places that make this town home:

• The Square. The historic Rutherford County Courthouse anchors downtown, surrounded by local shops and restaurants, with some of the city's oldest homes on the streets nearby.
• MTSU. Middle Tennessee State University keeps the east side of town busy, and the rentals and older houses around campus need a plumber who shows up when promised.
• Stones River National Battlefield and the Stones River Greenway. Two of the city's best-known outdoor spots, with the greenway winding through town along the river.
• Old Fort Park and Barfield Crescent Park. Ball fields, trails and playgrounds that families on both sides of town use every week.
• The Avenue. The shopping and dining center off Medical Center Parkway in the Gateway area.
• Cannonsburgh Village. The pioneer village near downtown that hosts community events throughout the year.

If something in your house is leaking, clogged, not heating, or just not right, call or text us at (931) 993-2525. You'll talk to a real person, not a call center, and there's no fee for us to come take a look.
