Your Shawnee Hills Plumber

Shawnee Hills is a small village of about 835 people in Concord Township, tucked along the O'Shaughnessy Reservoir next to Dublin. It was platted in the 1920s as a fishing resort, with thousands of tiny lots, and became a village in 1942. Many of the early cottages have since turned into year-round homes. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Delaware is based just up the road in Delaware.

We're The Punctual Plumber, and we put money on it. If we're late, we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300.

The Shawnee Hills Plumbing Landscape

Shawnee Hills is unusual. The village started as a collection of weekend fishing cottages on lots roughly 35 by 70 feet, and early homes relied on private wells and on-site septic. Del-Co Water reached the village in the 1980s, and a central sewer system was added beginning in 2001, after septic failures threatened the O'Shaughnessy Reservoir. Not every platted lot has been able to get a sewer tap, so the mix of plumbing across the village varies from street to street.

The village's older housing stock, a lot of which dates back more than 30 years, runs alongside newer homes built since 2000, such as those in Shawnee Woods. Older cottage-era houses are where we see aging supply lines, old drain lines, and sewer laterals that need a camera inspection. Many lots are hilly and wooded, and shallow limestone bedrock can limit how deep basements go. Del-Co water is moderately hard, about 7 to 8 grains per gallon, and it leaves scale in water heaters and fixtures over time.

Shawnee Hills Local Insight

Shawnee Hills calls tend to depend on the age of the house. In the older cottages it's aging supply and drain lines, small water heaters, sewer lateral problems and slow drains. In the newer homes it's water heaters, pressure valves and fixtures. Our techs test your water pressure and check the age of your water heater on every visit, so you get time to plan a replacement instead of scrambling when something quits. Our trucks are stocked, and most calls are fixed on the first visit.

Seasonal Plumbing in Shawnee Hills

Before the first hard freeze, disconnect your garden hoses, shut off and drain the outdoor faucets, and insulate pipes in crawl spaces and other unheated areas, which matters for older cottage-style homes. Flush the water heater once a year to clear sediment and scale. If your home has a sump pump, test it and its battery backup before the spring rain and snowmelt, and check that downspouts carry water away from the foundation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Shawnee Hills on public water and sewer?

The village has had Del-Co water since the 1980s and a central sewer since 2001, but not every lot has been able to connect to sewer. If you're not sure how your house is set up, we can find out whether you're on sewer or septic and what that means for your plumbing.

My Shawnee Hills house was originally a cottage. What should I check?

Start with the supply pipes, the drain lines and the water heater. Older homes can have galvanized supply lines, aging drains and original water or sewer lines that deserve a look. A camera inspection and a pressure check will tell you what you have.

Can a house with shallow bedrock still have a sump pump?

Yes. Shallow limestone in the area limits how deep many basements go, but if your home has a basement or crawl space that takes on water, a sump pump can still help. We can look at your setup and tell you what makes sense.

How long does a water heater last in Shawnee Hills?

Most tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years, and hard water can cut that short. If yours is past 10 years old, rusting at the base or popping as it heats, have us look at it before it fails.

Do you serve all of ZIP 43065?

Yes. That covers Shawnee Hills, Powell and Liberty Township, plus the rest of our Delaware County service area.
