Your Greensboro Plumber, We Always Answer
24/7 plumbing service for Greensboro homes and businesses. If we can’t fix it, you don’t pay.
Serving Greensboro from High Point, Just 20 Minutes Away
When you’ve got water pouring through the ceiling or a backed-up sewer at 2 AM, you need a plumber who picks up the phone. We’re All-Star Plumbing, based in High Point, about 20 minutes from most Greensboro neighborhoods via I-85. We’ve been serving Greensboro homeowners since 2007.
Greensboro is the largest city in the Triad with over 300,000 residents. According to U.S. Census data, nearly 40% of Greensboro homes were built between 1950 and 1979 — meaning a significant portion of the city’s housing stock has plumbing systems approaching 50-70 years old. We work on everything from historic Fisher Park homes with original pipes to new construction in Lake Jeanette.
Our family has been plumbing in the Triad since 1986. Joshua Davis and his father Larry bring over 100 years of combined experience. We’re not a franchise — we’re local.
Why Greensboro Homeowners Call Us
No showers. No clean dishes. No laundry. When your hot water heater fails, your whole routine grinds to a halt. And it always seems to happen at the worst possible time — early morning, before guests arrive, or in the middle of winter.
All-Star Plumbing treats no-hot-water calls as emergencies. We respond fast, diagnose the problem, and get your hot water back — often the same day you call. Serving High Point, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and communities throughout the Triad.
We repair both tank and tankless water heaters. Gas, electric, propane — whatever you have, we work on it. And if repair isn’t the answer, we can replace your water heater quickly so you’re not without hot water for days.
Plumbing Services for Greensboro Homes
We provide complete residential and commercial plumbing throughout Greensboro:
Burst pipes, major leaks, sewer backups, no hot water. We respond to Greensboro emergencies typically within 45 minutes.
Tank and tankless water heaters. Greensboro’s soft water (2-3 grains per gallon) is gentle on equipment, but sediment still builds up — regular flushing extends tank life.
Slow drains, clogs, main line backups. Many older Greensboro homes have clay or cast iron sewer lines prone to root intrusion after 50+ years.
Hidden leaks waste water and cause damage. We find leaks under slabs, behind walls, and in crawl spaces without unnecessary demolition.
Homes with galvanized steel pipes experience corrosion, low pressure, and rusty water. We repipe with modern PEX or copper.
Toilets, faucets, sinks, garbage disposals, dishwashers. Same-day service for most fixture work.
Plumbing Considerations for Greensboro Homes
Local factors affect your plumbing. Here’s what matters in Greensboro:
- Aging Housing Stock
Nearly 40% of Greensboro homes were built between 1950 and 1979. These homes often have galvanized steel water lines that corrode from the inside, reducing water pressure and causing discolored water. Cast iron drain pipes from this era are also reaching end of life.
Signs it’s time to repipe: Low water pressure, rusty water, frequent leaks, visible corrosion on exposed pipes.
- Soft Water, Good News for Pipes
Greensboro’s municipal water is classified as soft (2-3 grains per gallon) according to the City of Greensboro Water Resources. Unlike hard water areas, you won’t see heavy mineral scale on fixtures or inside pipes.
What it means for you: Water softeners are generally unnecessary. Your water heater and fixtures experience less mineral buildup than in harder-water cities.
- Winter Freeze Risk
Greensboro averages 147 nights per year below freezing. During cold snaps, the city experiences dozens of water main breaks, and residential pipes in crawl spaces, exterior walls, and unheated areas are equally vulnerable.
Prevention: Insulate exposed pipes, know your main shutoff location, and call immediately if you suspect frozen pipes. We offer 24/7 emergency service for burst pipes.
- Historic Home Plumbing
Neighborhoods like Fisher Park, Irving Park, and College Hill contain homes 80-120 years old. Original plumbing in these homes like galvanized steel, clay sewer lines, and outdated fixtures, requires specialized knowledge to repair without damaging historic features.
Our approach: We work carefully in historic homes, matching existing systems when appropriate and recommending upgrades when necessary.
