Emergency services offered. 40 years in business. Prices are quoted upfront. Family owned. State Certified Plumbing Contractor. Additional DBA's: Andy Wyatt Plumbing, The New Plumbing Co., Inc., Wyatt Plumbing & Heating, Inc., Wyatt Works Plumbing Solutions & Wyatt Works. Consider it done.

"As I requested they provided the cost for drain snaking upfront. A simple procedure that most others would not quote. (They wanted to do a separate "diagnostic" visit and additional fee. The work was fine. The technician very competent and concientious about keeping things clean. The only rub, they wanted $179 to put the toilet back in (way out of line). I think they could have told me. Nevertheless, I drove to home depot for a wax ring and had it done in 10 minutes. Overall, a 4 oout of 5. If they charged a more reasonable rate for reseating the toilet i would have had them do it, and would have rated a 5."

"Excellent. McGuire installed my new Delta faucet. While doing so, we saw the sink was pulled away from the counter and sunk. It was installed 17 years ago. The sticks were worn, the basket was bad, which we didn't know at the time. McGuire called his boss, Mike who came over and along with Mike fixed my sink. Fabulous service and quality."

Mackin & Sons Plumbing was founded in 2009 to provide exceptional plumbing service to residents of the greater Akron area. The foundation of their success is their love of craftsmanship and service. They believe the customer – their needs, schedule, dilemma, budget, wishes, whatever – comes first and not the other way around. Give us a call today to set up your appointment!

"8/21/2023 We requested service for drain clogging and self-diagnosed additional leaking from washer due to the clogged drain from the main kitchen sink. This was verified by plumber Anthony P. when he arrived. He was professional and completed the unclogging of my kitchen sink to the main line. Only negative was the total cost, as it was more than 2x our local company Allen Drain. But I wanted a plumber and not just an unclogging service, just in case. With my discount coupon from Angi's for service call, total was $290 for unclogging my kitchen sink drain line. I would call them again if the price was more competitive. Sarah K"

"I was a loyal customer for 20+ years. When I sold my home, they were awful. The people in the front office are horrible, no respect for residential customers. Seniors beware!!!! Picture this, after 27 years in my home, the movers had just left, we were sharing a tearful goodbye with my daughter in the driveway, when my phone rings, the realtor telling me there was a last minute snag because the nasty ******* at Davis read the riot act to my buyer, telling him he needed to extend the rental plan or they would rip out their equipment. Never mentioned that he could buy it - get this, the young nasty ***** in the office told me $350, then the office manager told me $300, then they told the new buyer $379. This to buy out 20+ year old equipment that was fully depreciated 10 years ago. Liars! Rob Davis would be very sad to know how they treat customers now. Probably sorry he left his name on the company."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

Hard water isn’t unhealthy. It’s safe to drink, bathe in, and cook with. However, it can make some skin, hair, and scalp problems, such as eczema, worse by affecting the pH balance of your skin and hair. Additionally, some people don’t like the taste of hard water, but it does contain minerals that are important to your overall health, like calcium.

Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.

Hard water doesn’t hurt, but it might feel more abrasive, especially if you have sensitive skin. It’s also about how your skin feels after bathing. You might feel as though you have a sticky film over your body because you do—it’s all that soapy residue left behind because the hard water can’t rinse it off completely.
