What We Fix

Our Plumbing Services

Leak Repair

A leaking pipe, fixture, or fitting rarely fixes itself, and it can cause real damage to a home fast. We track down the source of the leak, whether it's hidden behind a wall or dripping under a sink, and repair it properly the first time so it doesn't come back.

Water Heater Replacement

When a standard tank water heater starts failing, we size and install a proper replacement to code, not a quick swap that leaves you with the wrong unit. We handle the removal of the old tank and get your hot water back up and running with minimal disruption.

Heat Pump Water Heater Plumbing

Installing or servicing a heat pump water heater takes plumbing work that connects directly to the unit's performance. We handle that connection and integration work as part of our broader heat pump water heater installation expertise, so the plumbing and the heat pump work together the way they should.

Drain Cleaning

A slow or clogged drain usually points to a buildup that only gets worse with time. We clear kitchen, bathroom, and main line drains so water flows the way it should, and we'll flag anything that points to a bigger issue before it turns into one.

Plumbing Fixtures

Whether it's a faucet, toilet, sink, or shower fixture that's leaking, running, or simply worn out, we install and repair fixtures throughout the home so every tap and valve works the way it's supposed to.

Pipe Repairs

Corroded, cracked, or frozen pipes are common in older Maine homes, and they only get more expensive to fix the longer they're left alone. We repair and replace damaged sections of pipe, so your water supply stays reliable through every season.

One Call for Everything

Plumbing and HVAC Under One Trusted Contractor

Plumbing problems rarely stay in their own lane. A failing water heater, a heat pump water heater tied into your hot water supply, or a furnace with plumbing connections can all touch the same system, and coordinating two separate companies to sort it out wastes time and invites miscommunication. Hiring one contractor who handles both plumbing and HVAC removes that headache entirely.

RK Heating, Plumbing, Cooling has worked on homes and light commercial buildings across Central and Western Maine for 38 years, and that experience means one crew that already understands how your plumbing, heating, and cooling systems fit together. You make one call, get one appointment, and get one team that already knows your property, instead of explaining the same problem twice to two different companies.

Plumbing Questions

Plumbing Questions Homeowners Ask Before Booking

  • How fast can RK Heating, Plumbing, Cooling get to a leaking pipe?

    We respond quickly to active leaks because we know every hour matters once water starts getting where it shouldn't. Our regular hours run Monday through Friday, 8am to 4pm, and we take emergency calls as needed. Same-week appointments are often available across Central and Western Maine, even outside emergency situations.

  • Can RK replace a water heater that failed suddenly?

    Yes. Same-day or next-day replacement is often possible depending on which unit you need and what we have on hand. We carry standard tank water heaters as well as heat pump water heater replacements, so most homeowners aren't left without hot water for long.

  • Does RK Heating, Plumbing, Cooling work on older farmhouse plumbing?

    Yes. A lot of homes across Central and Western Maine are older farmhouses and colonials with aging pipe systems that need a careful eye. We've spent 38 years diagnosing and repairing plumbing in exactly this kind of older housing stock, so we know what to look for.

  • Do I need a separate plumber if I already use RK for heating and cooling?

    No. RK Heating, Plumbing, Cooling handles plumbing, heating, cooling, and heat pump work all under one contractor. That means you don't have to find, vet, and coordinate a second company when a plumbing issue comes up on top of your heating or cooling needs.
