Common Plumbing Problems in West Atlanta Homes and Businesses
West Atlanta’s housing spans more than a century. West End, Adair Park, and Westview are known for Victorian, Queen Anne, and Craftsman homes built around the turn of the 20th century and after. Farther west, Collier Heights and parts of Cascade Heights are known for mid-century brick ranches. Both groups have their own plumbing needs.
Renovations That Uncover Old Pipe
Many west side homes are being restored or updated. Once the walls are open, it’s common to find galvanized supply lines, cast iron drains, and years of patchwork repairs. Renovation is the ideal time for a repipe with PEX or copper, and for new drain lines to serve added bathrooms.
Clay and Cast Iron Sewer Laterals
Older sewer laterals made of clay or cast iron can crack, sag, or fill with roots from the neighborhood’s big trees. We recommend a sewer camera inspection before you buy or renovate an older home. It shows you the line’s condition before it becomes a surprise.
Mid-Century Ranches Showing Their Age
Ranch homes from the 1950s and 60s often have aging drain lines under the slab or basement, water heaters that are past due for replacement, and old shutoff valves that no longer close. We help you prioritize what needs fixing now and what can wait.

West Atlanta Plumbing FAQs
Should I get a sewer inspection before buying an older West Atlanta home?
It’s a smart move. Many older homes have clay or cast iron sewer laterals that can crack, sag, or fill with roots, and those problems aren’t visible from inside the house. A sewer camera inspection shows the pipe’s condition so you can plan ahead or negotiate. Our licensed plumbers explain the footage and give you upfront pricing for any repairs.
Do you work with investors and contractors on renovations?
Yes. We work with homeowners, investors, and contractors on renovation plumbing, including repiping, new bathroom and kitchen rough-ins, water heater installation, gas lines, and water and sewer line replacement. We assess the existing system first so you know what you’re working with, and we provide clear, upfront pricing before any work begins.
Is it worth replacing galvanized pipe in my historic home?
In most cases, yes. Galvanized steel rusts from the inside, which lowers water pressure, can discolor your water, and eventually leads to leaks. Replacing it with PEX or copper restores pressure and reduces leak risk. We’ll inspect your system and explain your options with upfront pricing. GreenSky financing is available for repiping.
Do you provide emergency plumbing in West Atlanta?
Yes. RDP Plumbing is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call (678) 330-8439 for burst pipes, sewer backups, major leaks, or water heater failures. If you smell gas, leave the building and call 911 and your gas utility’s emergency line from outside first.
