Do you serve all of Leesburg and the rest of Lake County?

Yes. We work in every part of Leesburg, from the historic downtown and lakeside neighborhoods to the newer communities on the edges of town. We also serve Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, Tavares, Eustis, Mount Dora and beyond. Call or text with your address and we will schedule a visit with an upfront estimate.

Can you work on plumbing in Leesburg's historic homes?

Absolutely. Older Leesburg homes may have cast-iron drains, galvanized supply lines and a mix of repairs from different eras. We camera-inspect drain lines, locate corroded sections and recommend repairs that respect the home. When the system is beyond patching, we plan a repipe that minimizes disruption to plaster and original finishes where possible.

Why do my drains back up after heavy rain?

In older neighborhoods, cracked clay or cast-iron sewer lines can let groundwater and roots in, and heavy summer storms make the problem worse. A partially blocked main line also struggles when everyone in the house is using water. A sewer camera inspection shows the cause, and hydro jetting or a sectional repair usually resolves it.

Leesburg, Florida Plumbing for Old Homes and New

Leesburg sits on a strip of land between Lake Harris and Lake Griffin, two of the larger lakes in Lake County’s Harris Chain. It is one of the county’s oldest and largest cities, with a historic downtown, the waterfront Venetian Gardens park, mid-century neighborhoods and newer subdivisions growing toward The Villages. K&K Plumbing serves the whole city, and as a plumber in Leesburg FL we are as comfortable with a century-old drain line as with brand-new PEX.

Leesburg’s plumbing by neighborhood type

Downtown and historic streets. Older homes near downtown can still have their original cast-iron drains and galvanized water lines, along with fixtures and valves that have been replaced piecemeal over the years.

Lakeside neighborhoods. Homes near the shores of Lake Harris and Lake Griffin range from mid-century block houses to updated lakefront homes. Many have aging copper supply lines and older sewer laterals.

Newer communities. Subdivisions on the north and south edges of the city use PEX and modern fixtures, so calls tend to involve water heaters, fixtures and water treatment.

Commercial corridors. US-441 and US-27 carry shops, restaurants and offices that need dependable drains, water heaters and backflow devices.

What Leesburg homeowners call us about

Stubborn drains and sewer lines

Roots, grease and aging pipe cause recurring clogs in older parts of the city. We clear lines with cable machines or hydro jetting and use a camera to see exactly what is going on underground. Read more on our page for drain cleaning in Leesburg.

Corroded supply lines

Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside out, choking flow and discoloring water. Thin copper develops pinhole leaks. A Leesburg repiping project replaces failing lines with PEX, copper or CPVC.

Water heater failures

Hard water from the limestone aquifer fills tank heaters with sediment. We repair and replace tank and tankless water heaters, and our page on Leesburg water heater service explains the options.

Slab leaks and hidden water loss

A spinning meter, a damp spot on the carpet or warm tile can mean a leak under the slab. Electronic detection pinpoints it before any concrete is touched.

After-hours emergencies

Burst pipes and overflowing fixtures do not wait for morning. 24/7 emergency plumbing is available throughout Leesburg.

A few tips for older Leesburg homes

Avoid chemical drain cleaners in cast-iron lines. They can accelerate corrosion.
Keep grease out of kitchen drains and wipes out of toilets.
If you have had more than one supply line leak in a year, ask about a repipe evaluation.
Know where your main shut-off is and test it once in a while so it does not seize.
