Serving Cave Spring, VA
Cave Spring is a community in southwest Roanoke County that grew from an old village into a suburb, with much of its neighborhood building from the 1960s on. We serve its neighborhoods with emergency plumbing, drain cleaning, water heater repair & replacement, leak detection & repair, toilet repair & installation, and repiping.
Public water in Roanoke County comes from the Western Virginia Water Authority, formed on July 1, 2004 when Roanoke County and the City of Roanoke merged their water and sewer systems.
Roanoke County’s Building Safety office, which issues plumbing permits for the unincorporated county, is right in the Cave Spring area at 5204 Bernard Drive. We pull the permit when the job needs one.

Age is usually the answer. Many Cave Spring homes are now 40 to 60 years old, with original galvanized branch lines and cast-iron drains reaching the end of their life. Galvanized supply pipe corrodes and scales internally, choking flow and dropping pressure, while cast-iron drains roughen and narrow inside so they clog again and again. Aging water heaters compound the pressure and hot-water complaints. We diagnose whether you’re looking at a cleanable drain, a failing branch that needs repair, or a whole-house issue that calls for repiping, and give you a straight recommendation rather than an automatic upsell. Call (540) 302-5580.
We do — a tank water heater typically lasts 8 to 12 years, so many Cave Spring homes from the 1960s on are on their second or third heater, and an older one is worth checking. We size and install the right replacement, tie it into the existing lines properly, and haul the old unit away. If yours is rusting, leaking, rumbling from sediment, or just not keeping up, it’s worth replacing before it fails and floods the space. Where the tank’s still sound and it’s a valve, element, or thermostat, we’ll repair instead. Call (540) 302-5580 and we’ll tell you honestly which makes sense.
