Named Forbes' Top Ranked Plumbing Company of 2024!
Crabapple is one of North Fulton’s most recognized and beloved historic communities. The original Crabapple crossroads — anchored by the historic brick building at the intersection of Crabapple Road, Mayfield Road, and Birmingham Road — now sits at the heart of the City of Milton, which incorporated the area in 2006. Today the Crabapple community spans portions of Milton, Roswell, and Alpharetta, and has grown into a vibrant mixed-use district featuring Milton City Hall, boutique retail, restaurants, and a growing Market District. The surrounding residential neighborhoods range from historic properties on large lots to newer townhomes and single-family homes built in recent years.
Crabapple’s housing stock spans a wide age range, and that range drives different plumbing considerations. The area’s older properties — homes built in the 1970s through 1990s along Crabapple Road, Mayfield Road, and Birmingham Highway — are in the age bracket where original copper supply lines show meaningful age-related wear. Pinhole leaks from localized pitting corrosion are a well-documented pattern in homes of this vintage throughout the area. For properties with slab foundations, locating these leaks before any concrete work begins requires thermal imaging and acoustic detection equipment.
The newer construction in the Crabapple Market District and surrounding townhome communities is generally on mixed-use or smaller-lot development footprints. These homes tend to have more recent plumbing installations, but the high density of the newer development means any plumbing failure can affect multiple units or adjacent properties quickly. Prompt response matters.
Crabapple’s established mature tree canopy — one of the community’s defining aesthetic features — also means tree root intrusion into sewer lines is a common service issue for older properties on larger lots.

Buffalo Girl
All very nice people! They got me in the next day for a consultation and after giving the green light to fix my issues, the plumber was scheduled to come out same day. Benjamin was the consultant and he couldn’t have been nicer and explained everything to me. Especially for not being from here, but from Texas, I didn’t know a lot about how things are done differently bc of true winters. Vince and his partner did a Fantastic job rerouting my water line

Yes. The Crabapple community spans portions of Milton, Alpharetta, and Roswell, and we serve homeowners throughout all three. Our service area covers all of North Fulton County, so your exact city boundary doesn’t affect our ability to respond. Call (678) 833-2754 and we’ll dispatch to your address regardless of which city it falls in.
Homes built in the 1970s through 1990s in the Crabapple area have original copper supply lines that are now 30 to 50 years old. At that pipe age, these systems are in the window where localized pitting corrosion produces recurring pinhole leaks. Slab leaks are also a consistent finding in slab-on-grade homes of this vintage. Tree root intrusion into sewer lines is another common issue given the mature tree cover throughout Crabapple’s established neighborhoods. An annual plumbing assessment is a reasonable precaution for homes in this age range.
Yes. We service all residential plumbing regardless of home type, including the newer townhomes and condominiums in and around the Crabapple Market District. Newer construction is not immune to plumbing issues — supply line failures, water heater problems, and drain blockages occur in new homes too. We provide flat-rate pricing on all work before we start, and every repair carries a full warranty.
