Bathroom Plumbing Repair, Replacement & Installation Services
Bathroom plumbing problems can happen suddenly in any Oneonta or Otego home, especially in older Upstate NY properties with aging pipes, worn-out fixtures, or cast-iron drains. At PhD Home Services, we provide expert bathroom plumbing repairs, toilet replacements, shower valve installations, leak detection, and full bathroom plumbing replacements/upgrades. Whether you’re dealing with a clogged toilet, leaking shower, low water pressure, or a tub drain that hasn’t worked in years, we deliver precise, dependable solutions for every part of your bathroom.
Many bathrooms in this region were built decades ago and still rely on old copper, galvanized, or cast-iron piping that has slowly corroded over time. This can lead to pipe leaks inside walls, low flow to showers, or recurring drain clogs. We repair and replace supply lines, upgrade drain piping, and restore proper water pressure to sinks, toilets, and showers. When a leak spreads behind tile or drywall, pipe repair becomes essential to protect the bathroom from long-term damage.
Toilet problems are some of the most common issues we see in Otsego County. A toilet that constantly clogs and needs drain cleaning services or leaks at the base, or backs up into the tub often indicates a deeper drain or sewer problem. We handle toilet repairs, rebuilds, wax ring replacements, and new toilet installations. If the root cause is a deeper drain issue, we provide clogged drain solutions and camera inspections to identify whether the blockage is in the bathroom line or further down the sewer.
Shower valve failures can cause temperature fluctuations, poor flow, or issues with hot water regulation. Many older homes still use outdated valves that are no longer safe or code-compliant. We install new pressure-balanced or thermostatic mixing valves, ensuring safe, consistent water temperature. For shower and tub drain problems, we clear obstructions, replace aging drain assemblies, and repair the piping beneath the floor to restore proper drainage and prevent sewer odors.
Bathroom remodels, additions, and upgrades often require new plumbing layout design. Whether you’re renovating a farmhouse bathroom, adding a basement shower, or modernizing an older space, we install new supply lines, drains, venting, and fixtures according to code and long-term reliability standards. We also help homeowners plan upgrades that integrate with their existing heating system, including radiant floor heating in bathrooms for improved comfort.
If your home has multiple bathrooms with recurring clogs, slow sinks, or backup issues, the problem may be connected to the larger sewer line. Many Oneonta and Otego homes have long sewer runs or older clay tile piping that can restrict flow, causing bathroom drains to fail repeatedly. We perform sewer inspections and provide sewer replacement or repair when needed to restore full system function.
Leaking sinks, dripping faucets, and worn-out fixtures can lead to water waste, increased utility bills, and hidden damage over time. We repair and replace faucets, pop-up assemblies, shutoff valves, and supply lines to ensure your bathroom functions smoothly every day. For homes with hard water, we address buildup that affects fixtures and valves, restoring smooth operation and improving water flow throughout the bathroom.
Bathrooms are one of the most frequently used spaces in the home, and even minor plumbing issues can quickly become major disruptions. At PhD Home Services, we provide fast, reliable bathroom plumbing repairs and upgrades for all types of homes — from historic Oneonta houses to modern renovations in Otego and beyond. Our goal is to deliver long-term solutions that protect your bathroom, improve comfort, and maintain safe plumbing performance.
