Nags Head stretches from the historic cottage row on the Beach Road and the dunes of Jockey's Ridge State Park to the oceanfront rentals of South Nags Head and the wooded soundside streets near Nags Head Woods. Absolute Plumbing has worked on Nags Head homes, vacation rentals and businesses since 2009, and our team brings over 20 years of plumbing experience to every job, from a single dripping faucet to repiping a cottage that still has its original lines.

Plumbing Services in Nags Head


Water Heater Repair & Replacement:

Rusty hot water, a rumbling tank or a puddle at the base usually means sediment or corrosion has caught up with the heater. We repair tank water heaters, replace the ones that are finished, and service tankless water heaters from Navien, Rinnai, A. O. Smith and Rheem.

Repiping Older Cottages:

Many Nags Head cottages were built long before today's piping. When old lines corrode, lose pressure or keep springing pinhole leaks, we replace the worst sections or repipe the house.

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting:

Wind-blown sand, beach gear rinsed off in the tub and kitchen grease from restaurants along the Bypass all end up in Nags Head drains. We clear the clog, and hydro jetting cleans the whole line when it keeps backing up.

Leak Repair & Fixtures:

Running toilets, dripping faucets, leaking shut-off valves, and new faucet, sink, shower and toilet installations for homes and rentals.

Remodels & New Homes:

Plumbing for bathroom and kitchen remodels and for new construction in Nags Head.

What We See in Nags Head Homes

Salt Spray on the Oceanfront: Homes on the oceanfront and in South Nags Head take the full force of salt spray. Outdoor hose bibs, exposed supply lines and the valves and connections on water heaters corrode years ahead of schedule, and a corroded fitting is usually where the next leak starts.

Big Rental Houses, Heavy Use: A large rental with a full house every week runs several showers, a dishwasher and laundry at once. That is when a worn-out water heater runs cold and a partly clogged drain finally backs up, so we look at the whole system, not just the fixture that failed.

Year-Round Homes on the Soundside: The wooded neighborhoods on the sound side of town hold many of Nags Head's year-round homes, where water heaters, fixtures and older drain lines wear out on a normal schedule. We handle the routine repairs as well as the big jobs.

Emergency Plumbing Services:We know that plumbing emergencies can happen at any time. That’s why our emergency services are available 24/7, ensuring that we’re here for you when you need us the most, ready to address urgent issues promptly and efficiently.

—Robin H.

       

“Kevin did a great job and was very informative and kind. All the work got done professionally and timely. Absolute had done some work for me years ago when I first bought my home and they will always be my “go to” plumber from now on. Great job, very happy with their work.”
—Maria F.

       

“We are a small property management and maintenance company here and we can’t always handle some bigger problems, put a call into absolute after hours today and they sent someone out right away to take care of a blocked sewer pipe, I will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to all of my homeowners.”
—Rob S.
