We are a family owned Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning business serving Washington, Greene, Fayette, Westmoreland & Allegheny Counties of Pennsylvania as well as Ohio, Marshall, Wetzel & Monongalia Counties of West Virginia. Residential, Commercial & Industrial Since 1909.

"Substantial amount of water was leaking from clogged pipe of the discharge from air conditioning unit inside home near bedrooms. First guy didn't fix it properly. Had to call them again. Two weeks after contacting this company someone else came and he was not even aware why he was sent to the location. We hope this latest unclogging will work. Terrible experience all around."

At Mitchell Plumbing, Heating and Cooling, we offer a full range of general plumbing, heating, and air conditioning services. From installation of new fixtures to radiant heating to air conditioning repairs, we do it all. Our commitment is to provide honest, professional, affordable service on every job we take. Our licensed, professional, courteous plumbing and HVAC experts can provide solutions for all of your home comfort needs.

"I was charged $99 for a diagnostic fee despite my system being left in a worse condition than before he arrived, and no fix was made. Update: I contacted the service manager about this issue, and he sent me a check for the $99, but he marked it as a "non-payment" instead of a refund, meaning that if I wanted to use Mitchell's services in the future, I would need to repay this "debt" of $99 before scheduling any other work. For this reason, I will no longer use Mitchell’s services for anything I may need in the future. When I need something to be repaired, I expect that repair to be completed, or at least an estimate provided (for labor and parts) for the additional work beyond the diagnosis of what it would take to adequately repair the issue. I received neither in this case, and so this $99 diagnostic fee should have been waived."

"In February I had a tech named Chad come to fix a squealing toilet. He insisted it wasn’t the fill valve but the inlet valve behind the toilet. When remounting the toilet he made ME, who just had open abdominal surgery help him remount the toilet! He flushes it 3 times, still squealing. He knows he hasn’t fixed the issue but still charges me and leaves. Like I said, I’m recovering from a major operation & this was a toilet in my rental unit located above my unit. I wasn’t renting it out at the time so I let it go for a few months bc you know recovering from illness and working 50 hours a week gets in the way. The part & work was supposedly under warranty for 1 year. I had another plumbing service cone and look at the squealing toilet. They replaced the fill valve. After 8 flushes- squealing again. Stays for another hour repeatedly flushing the toilet then leaves with problem not fixed. I go to my unit, HUGE hole in my ceiling. Clearly the toilet has been leaking every times it’s flushed and just sat in the floor/ceiling until it got too wet and the plaster gave away. Call roto rooter- they take 2 days to come and are no where in the time window. If I had a tennant at the time this would be an EMERGENCY but they take their sweet time. They come and replace the fill valve AGAIN. They admit Chad had no idea what he was doing. They said I would be refunded for the damage, lost money from not being able to rent it, and the original call. In comes the arrogant Ozie Soarks. He will ONLY send some third party restoration company to “fix the damage”. This third party company is even more rude and stupid than roto rooter and wants to rip up my place, leave it dry for 2 weeks, then only patch the hole. According to the two companies my insurance company sent out, they said the floor of the bathroom was also shot and needed repaired. So I had to use the insurance company Incase there were future issues, if this claim wasn’t followed through I’ll be liable for all future issues since this would be “pre existing” if not fixed right. This ends up being a $5,000 claim. Again I have to deal with this Ozie moron. He says he’s done with me bc I cancelled the home restoration he recommended. When I explain they couldn’t fix all the damage he tries to mansplain to me and says “Mistakes happen” and they’re not liable. Sending inexperienced techs that don’t know what they’re doing is absolutely their problem. I work in healthcare, if I make a mistake someone dies. I’m so sick of people not standing behind their work with garbage excuses. I’m like you need to refund me bc after ALL of this the toilet is squealing again SO loudly you can hear it in the yard. Ozie blames this on a wax ring. It’s not the F$&@ing ring!!! Ozie tells me that he’s “done with me & I can call the BBB and my lawyer” and hangs up. Buckle up buddy!!!!!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Ideally, you might find that you only need to clean the sewer line or remove a clog from the main line. That costs $200 to $300. However, “sewer main clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear, depending on what is causing the clog, distance from accessible cleanouts to the clog, and whether there is occupied space below the clogged line (apartment buildings, condos, etc.),” says Botelho.

If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

Some experts estimate that descaling your cast iron pipes can extend their lifetime by upwards of 50 years, although there’s not a lot of research to prove it. But we do know that without proper maintenance, cast iron pipes can quickly rust—leading to more expensive issues like burst pipes or main line clogs.
