Our Plumbing Services in Kansas City, MO

Along with urgent calls, Smedley Plumbing helps homeowners with a wide range of plumbing needs.

Our services include:

Water Heater Replacement When the tank’s shot, we pull it and set a new one so hot water’s not a gamble every morning.

Sump Pump A working sump pump is what keeps groundwater out of your basement during a storm. We make sure yours is one you can count on.

Tankless Water Heater Installation Tired of running out of hot water mid-shower? A tankless unit heats water on demand, and we size and install it right for your house.

Bathroom Plumbing Services Toilets, sinks, tubs, showers — we handle the repairs and upgrades that keep your bathroom actually working.

Pipe Repairs and Leaks A slow leak behind a wall or under a slab adds up fast on your water bill and your foundation. We track it down and close it up.

Toilet Repair Running toilet, weak flush, water pooling at the base — we find the actual cause instead of just tightening a bolt and hoping it holds.

Emergency Plumber A burst pipe doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. Call any time, day or night, and a real plumber answers.

Drain and Sewer Solutions We diagnose what’s backing up your drains and sewer line, then fix the real problem instead of just running a snake through it once.

Sewer Piping Service From small repairs to a full line replacement, we handle the pipe that carries everything out of your house.

Trenchless Pipe Relining For pipe that’s cracked or worn from the inside out, we run a new liner through the old one — no trench, no torn-up lawn.

Sewer Line Repair Solutions Cracks, offset joints, root intrusion — we target the actual break in the sewer line instead of replacing more pipe than you need.

Trenchless Pipe Repair A damaged pipe doesn’t mean tearing up your yard. Our Simple Sewer™ method needs one hole in the basement, one in the yard — no trench.

Clogged Drain Standing water in the tub or shower after every use means something’s blocking the line. We clear it fast so you’re not stepping into a swamp.

Drain Cleaning Slow drains get worse, not better, on their own. We clear the line all the way through so water moves like it’s supposed to.

Sewer Video Inspection A camera run down the line shows us roots, cracks, and blockages before we ever pick up a shovel.

Plumbing Smoke Testing We push safe smoke through your lines to find cracks and leaks you can’t see or smell any other way, so we know exactly where to work before anything gets opened up.

Excavation Some jobs still call for digging. When trenchless isn’t the right fit, we excavate carefully and put your yard back the way we found it.

Gas Water Heater Repair Pilot won’t light, no hot water, a burner acting up — we work on gas units safely and get the heat back on.

Hassle-Free Plumbing Services Leaky faucet, running toilet, a fixture that’s never worked right — we handle the everyday plumbing jobs most homeowners keep putting off.

Main Sewer Line Clog Services When every drain in the house backs up at once, that’s the main line, not a single fixture. We clear it and get everything moving again.

Drains Repair Services A drain that clogs again and again usually has a damaged pipe behind it, not just a hairball. We fix what’s actually broken so it stays clear.

Floor Drain Repair Services A floor drain that’s slow or backing up in the basement or garage is usually a warning sign, not a one-time fluke. We find out why and fix it before it floods.

Expert Plumbing Services Every plumber we send has put in real time on the tools — most of our guys have 20 years in the trade. That’s who shows up at your door.

Pipe Restoration Services Old pipe doesn’t have to come out to get fixed right. We rebuild what’s failing inside the line so it holds for years, not months.

Clogged Sink Repair Services Kitchen or bathroom sink not draining right? We clear the line and check for the buildup that’ll clog it again in a month.
