Customer Reviews

What Charlotte homeowners say.

5-star rated on Google. Real customers. Real jobs. No staging.

  • “Called at 6am when our main line backed up. Mike had a plumber here by 7:30. Job was done by 10am and the price was exactly what they quoted on the phone. No surprises. This is how it should work.”

    Susan M.

    South Charlotte homeowner

  • “Blue Ridge has been our go-to for three years. When you manage rentals, you need a plumber who picks up the phone and shows up when they say. These guys are the only plumbers in Charlotte I trust with my tenants.”

    James P.

    Property manager, 8 units in Plaza Midwood

  • “Our water heater died on Christmas Eve. I didn't expect anyone to come out, but Blue Ridge sent someone within two hours. Had hot water back by evening. They could have charged anything — they charged the standard rate. Integrity.”

    Linda K.

    Huntersville homeowner

  • “I've used six plumbing companies in Charlotte over the years. Blue Ridge is the only one I recommend to homeowners. Their work passes inspection first try, every time. That matters on a job site.”

    Marcus T.

    General contractor, Charlotte

  • “We've used them for everything — new water heater, bathroom remodel plumbing, a slab leak. Mike is honest. He'll tell you when something doesn't need replacing yet. That's rare. We'll never call anyone else.”

    Diane R.

    Ballantyne homeowner, 12 years customer

About the Master Plumber

Hi, I'm Mike Harrington.

I started Blue Ridge Plumbing in 2009 after 8 years as a journeyman plumber in the Charlotte metro. I earned my Master Plumber license because I believed homeowners and businesses deserved to work with someone fully accountable for the work — not just a company name, but a licensed professional standing behind every job. In 15 years we've served thousands of Charlotte families.

My commitment is simple: show up on time, tell you the price upfront, do the work right the first time, and leave your home the way we found it. Every technician we employ is background-checked, licensed, and trained under my direct supervision.

We're not a franchise. We're not a call center. When you call Blue Ridge Plumbing, you're calling a local company where I know every technician by name and stand behind every job we do.

FAQ

Common questions

Still have questions? Call (704) 555-0199 — we answer every call.

Call Now
How fast can you respond to a plumbing emergency?
For true emergencies — burst pipes, sewage backup, no water at all — we dispatch within the hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When you call our emergency line, a licensed plumber answers. You won't get an answering service or a callback the next morning. We understand that water damage happens fast.
Do you give upfront pricing before starting work?
Yes — always. Our plumbers won't start any work until you've seen and approved the flat-rate price in writing. The diagnostic fee ($89) is waived when you proceed with the repair. The price we quote is the price you pay — no hourly surprises, no "it took longer than expected" markups.
Are you licensed and insured?
Mike Harrington holds NC Master Plumber License #MP-48293. Blue Ridge Plumbing carries $1M general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage on all employees. We pull permits for all permit-required work and coordinate the final inspection. You can verify our license at nclbgc.org.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Charlotte and the greater Charlotte metro: South Charlotte (Ballantyne, Pineville, Matthews), East Charlotte (Mint Hill, Plaza Midwood), North Charlotte (Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Mooresville), and West Charlotte (Gastonia area, Belmont, Mount Holly). Call us and we'll confirm your address is in our service area.
Can you fix a slab leak?
Yes. Slab leaks are one of our specialties. We use electronic leak detection equipment to locate the leak without unnecessary excavation, then discuss repair options with you — direct-access repair, pipe re-routing, or epoxy pipe lining, depending on your home's situation. We also help you document the leak for insurance claims.
How long does a water heater installation take?
Most standard water heater replacements (40–50 gallon tank) take 2–3 hours. We stock the most common models on our trucks, so same-day replacement is usually possible when you call before noon. Tankless water heater installations typically take 4–6 hours and may require a permit — we handle that paperwork.
My drain is slow but not totally blocked. Is that an emergency?
Not an emergency, but worth addressing. A slow drain usually means partial blockage — hair, grease buildup, or early root intrusion. Left alone, it becomes a full backup (which IS an emergency). We offer same-day appointments for slow drains. A cable snake service typically resolves it and costs less than an emergency call.
Do you offer any warranty on your plumbing work?
Yes. All labor is warranted for one year from the date of service — if the same problem recurs due to our workmanship, we come back at no charge. Parts carry the manufacturer's warranty (typically 1–5 years depending on the part). New water heaters carry a separate 6-year parts warranty on the tank.
