When it finally gives out, RDP Plumbing LLC is close by. We are a licensed and insured plumber based on Dunwoody Place in north Atlanta, open 24/7 for Dunwoody homes and businesses.

Common Plumbing Problems in Dunwoody Homes and Businesses
Dunwoody is known for established subdivisions of ranches, split-levels, and two-story colonials on wooded lots, many with basements. Around Perimeter, the picture shifts to offices, apartments, hotels, and restaurants.
Original plumbing reaching retirement age
Homes built 40 to 60 years ago can still have original galvanized supply lines, early copper, or old shutoff valves that no longer close. Galvanized pipe corrodes inside, so pressure slowly drops and water may look rusty. We repair what is worth saving and repipe when it is not.
Polybutylene in some later homes
Some houses built in the 1980s and early 1990s used polybutylene, a gray plastic supply pipe known for failing suddenly. If you are not sure what you have, we can take a look and explain your options.
Finished basements and hidden leaks
Many Dunwoody homes have finished basements. A slow leak from a water heater, supply line, or drain can soak carpet and drywall before anyone notices. Our leak detection finds the source, and a basement floor drain that backs up may point to a main line problem.
Roots and wooded lots
Mature pines and hardwoods shade most Dunwoody streets. Over decades, their roots reach sewer laterals and cause slow drains and backups. Hydro jetting clears the line, and a camera inspection shows whether repair is needed.
Perimeter businesses
Restaurants and offices near Perimeter Mall need working grease traps, clear kitchen drains, and reliable restroom flush valves. We serve them 24/7.

Dunwoody Plumbing FAQs
Is your Dunwoody Place shop actually in Dunwoody?
Not quite. Despite the name, Dunwoody Place is in north Sandy Springs, near the Chattahoochee River. It is still a short drive from Dunwoody, which makes Dunwoody one of the closest areas we serve. We are open 24/7, and same-day service is often available. Call (678) 330-8439 and we will let you know when we can be there.
How do I know if my Dunwoody water heater needs replacing?
Watch for rusty or discolored hot water, popping or rumbling sounds, hot water that runs out faster than it used to, and any moisture around the base of the tank. Age matters too. If your heater has been in place for many years, have a licensed plumber inspect it. We give upfront pricing on repair or replacement, and GreenSky financing is available.
Do you replace polybutylene pipe in Dunwoody homes?
Yes. Some homes built in the 1980s and early 1990s used polybutylene, a gray plastic supply pipe that can become brittle and fail without warning. If you see it at your water heater or under sinks, we can inspect it and give you upfront pricing to repipe with copper or PEX. Financing through GreenSky is available for repiping.
Can you work with my Dunwoody HOA or townhome community?
Yes. We work with homeowners associations, townhome communities, and property managers on shared sewer lines, common-area plumbing, and unit repairs. We communicate clearly about schedules and water shutoffs and give upfront pricing before any work starts. For individual owners, we also help sort out whether a problem is on your side of the line or the association’s.
