Your hometown plumber in Pittsboro, Indiana

Pittsboro is home base for Essential Plumbing. We’re a locally owned, family-run plumbing company with over 20 years in the trade, serving Pittsboro’s in-town neighborhoods and the farm and country homes around it — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Local to Pittsboro

Pittsboro sits in northern Hendricks County along US 136, just off I-74, between Brownsburg and Lizton. Being based here, we know the town’s neighborhoods and the county roads around it — and we also serve North Salem, Jamestown and the rest of the north side of the county.

Town water and country wells

Pittsboro is a mix of homes on town water and properties in the surrounding countryside that rely on private wells. That shapes a lot of the calls we get:

  • Well pumps and pressure tanks — no water, low pressure, or a pump that cycles on and off.
  • Iron and sulfur — orange stains and rotten-egg odors are common with well water in the area.
  • Hard water — on town water and wells alike, which means scale on fixtures and in water heaters.
  • Sump pumps — keeping basements dry through spring storms.

Our pump installers are Indiana DNR licensed, so we can handle the well side and the house side of the job.

Every-day plumbing, too

Not every call is an emergency. We also install water heaters and softeners, fix running toilets and dripping faucets, replace sinks and disposals, and clear slow drains for Pittsboro homeowners.

    “Jeff was able to come out on the same day—especially on a Saturday—to troubleshoot our water heater and get everything back up and running. Having hot water out is always a major inconvenience, so getting fast, reliable service with clear, upfront pricing makes all the difference. He has done work for most of oir family and was honest and upfront with reasonable pricing. Highly recommend.”

    “I can’t say enough great things about Jeff at Essential plumbing! Not only did he show up quickly but he offered to do the work at a fair price unlike the other bids we received. He also went above & beyond by fixing a few extra things we didn’t hire him to do! 10/10 would highly recommend!”
