Plumbers in Shepherdstown, WV | Charles Town Plumbing
Shepherdstown is one of West Virginia's most treasured communities — a college town with deep roots, beautifully preserved architecture, and homeowners who care deeply about maintaining what they have. It's also a place where plumbing systems often tell the same story as the homes they run through: older infrastructure, cast iron pipes that have been in service for decades, and hard water that quietly wears things down year after year. When something needs attention, you want a plumber who understands what they're working with before they ever turn a wrench. Charles Town Plumbing has been serving Shepherdstown homeowners for over 25 years with exactly that kind of expertise and care.
We know this community and we know its homes. Working in an older Shepherdstown property isn't the same as working in a new subdivision — it requires patience, accuracy, and a respect for the structure that goes beyond the immediate repair. Our licensed technicians take the time to assess what's actually in front of them, explain every option clearly, and ask before making any invasive changes to your home. Whether it's a water heater installation, a plumbing repair, or an emergency in the middle of the night, we show up prepared and we do the job right.
Charles Town Plumbing has been voted the #1 plumber in the region by The Journal Readers' Choice Awards four years in a row — 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 — and we hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. For Shepherdstown homeowners who expect the best, that track record matters. Request your free estimate today and see the difference.

What We DO
Plumbing Services In Shepherdstown, WV
Drain Cleaning & Sewer Services
Older homes in Shepherdstown often have cast iron or galvanized drain lines that have narrowed significantly over the decades — which means that what looks like a simple slow drain could be a sign of deeper buildup that a quick fix won't address. Our professional drain cleaning service goes all the way to the source, thoroughly cleaning pipe walls and identifying what's actually causing the problem. We explain everything we find in plain terms and make sure you understand the state of your plumbing before we pack up and leave.
Hydro Jetting
Shepherdstown's mature canopy of trees is one of the things that makes the town so beautiful — and one of the things that makes its underground sewer lines so vulnerable. Root intrusion, combined with decades of grease and mineral scale inside older pipes, creates the kind of blockages that a standard snake can only temporarily manage. Hydro jetting uses water pressurized to 4,000 PSI to scour the interior walls of your pipes completely clean, cutting through root systems and buildup from every angle. For Shepherdstown properties with established landscaping and aging underground infrastructure, it's the lasting solution that actually removes the problem.
Water Heater Installation & Repair
Hard water is a consistent challenge throughout the Shenandoah Valley, and Shepherdstown homes are no exception. Mineral scale accumulates inside water heater tanks over time, reducing efficiency and shortening the unit's useful life — sometimes significantly. Whether your current water heater is struggling or you're ready to make the switch to a more efficient tankless system, Charles Town Plumbing handles both installation and repair with the experience your home deserves. For any major replacement, we provide three separate written quotes at different efficiency and price levels so you can weigh your options clearly and choose what works best for your household — on your timeline, without pressure.
Well Water and Water Treatment
While much of Shepherdstown connects to municipal water, properties on the outskirts and in surrounding neighborhoods may still rely on private wells — and even municipal water users can benefit from addressing the area's high mineral content. Charles Town Plumbing offers whole-home filtration, water softener installation, and UV purification systems that address the specific water quality challenges common throughout Jefferson County. We also handle well pump service and pressure tank repair for properties that depend on private well systems. If you've noticed scale on your fixtures, changes in your water's taste, or reduced pressure, we can assess what's going on and recommend the right solution.
24/7 Emergency Plumbers
Plumbing emergencies in an older home can escalate faster than in newer construction — aging pipes leave less margin for error, and a small failure can quickly become a bigger problem. Charles Town Plumbing provides true 24/7 emergency response for Shepherdstown homeowners, with a licensed plumber available every hour of every day for burst pipes, sewer backups, and sudden water loss. We'll walk you through immediate steps the moment you call, arrive prepared, and work carefully and efficiently to stop the damage and restore your home's plumbing.
Bathroom Remodeling
In Shepherdstown, a bathroom remodel is as much about preserving the character of your home as it is about modernizing it. Our team handles all the rough plumbing, fixture installation, and drain work for walk-in showers, freestanding tubs, vanity upgrades, and complete bathroom renovations — working carefully within the existing structure of older homes and communicating at every step of the process. We never make a structural change without your approval, and we don't consider the job done until everything is installed correctly and you're fully satisfied with the result.
