About
We are a commercial, residential repair, and remodeling plumbing company. We install new water heaters which include old-style tank heaters, electric and gas. We also install tankless on demand heaters as well.
Drain cleaning with standard cable were required depending on the application. Camera inspections of 3" drain lines up to 8" sewer lines are available as well.
I personally work on wells, trouble shooting and repairing up to complete reinstalls of the well system.
I'm certified with most of the local cities to test and repair cross connection backflows such as commercial and domestic water, commercial irrigation and residential irrigation. We replace water lines from city meters to the house, and sewer lines from house to the city or county taps.
Replacing customer supplied faucets as well as our own are available upon request. Repiping drain lines and water lines in houses and buildings along with the installation of all plumbing performed by Childress Plumbing will meet the North Carolina State plumbing codes.

Mike and his team went above and beyond to help us get the bathroom we want within our budget. It is always easy to throw money out there but it takes a lot of work and heart for someone to really listen and work around our individual needs.
Will hire Mike again!
