Our Plumbing Services in Lakewood
Lakewood’s housing ranges from homes built in the 1950s and 1960s to newer townhomes and large apartment communities, and each brings different plumbing needs. As residential plumbers and commercial plumbers, our team handles repairs, replacements, upgrades, and the cleanup that follows a major leak.
Drain Cleaning
In homes built before the 1970s, cast iron and clay drain lines can develop rough interiors and cracked joints that catch debris, making repeat clogs more likely. Our plumbers clear kitchen, bathroom, and main drains and check whether the pipe itself is part of the problem.
Plumbing Repair
Allen Service handles plumbing repair for leaking pipes and valves, worn faucets, running toilets, and clogged toilet repair. In older Lakewood homes, we also check nearby fittings and shutoffs, since one failing part is often a sign that others are close behind.
Plumbing Replacement
Updating a mid-century bathroom often means more than swapping a fixture. As your bathroom plumber, we handle toilet replacement, new faucets and valves, and plumbing installation for remodels, including replacing old supply lines that won’t hold up to new fixtures.
Plumbing Maintenance
Regular plumbing maintenance is especially worthwhile in homes with original piping. During a visit, our plumbers check the water heater, look for corrosion on exposed lines, test shutoff valves that may not have been turned in years, and flag any slow leaks.
Commercial Plumbing
Apartment complexes make up a large share of Lakewood’s housing, and a single failed water heater or drain stack can affect many units at once. Allen Service’s commercial plumbers repair, replace, and maintain plumbing for multifamily buildings, offices, and retail spaces.
Repiping Services
Galvanized steel supply lines were common in homes built before the 1970s, and they corrode from the inside, slowly reducing water pressure and sometimes discoloring the water. Depending on what an inspection shows, our plumbers can replace corroded sections or repipe the house with modern materials.
Sewer Line Services
A sewer line installed in the 1950s or 1960s may be made of clay or cast iron, and both can crack, sag, or let roots in with age. If drains back up throughout the house, we inspect the main line and recommend sewer line repair or replacement.
Sump Pumps
Older basements and crawlspaces don’t always have the drainage that newer construction includes. Where a sump pit is present, Allen Service repairs and replaces sump pumps, tests float switches, and adds battery backups so the pump can run during an outage.
Water Filtration
Lakewood is served by more than 30 water and sewer providers, from the city’s own utility to Denver Water, Consolidated Mutual, and several local districts. Because your water source depends on your address, our plumbers start with your provider’s water quality report before recommending filtration equipment.
Gas Line Installation
Older homes were often built with just enough gas piping for a furnace and water heater. Adding a gas range, dryer, or outdoor grill may require new or larger lines, and Allen Service installs and repairs gas piping sized for the full load.
Water Softeners
Water hardness varies across Lakewood because so many different providers serve the city. If you’re dealing with spotty dishes or scale on faucets, we can review your water report with you and install or service a water softener sized for your home.
Water Heaters
A water heater tucked into a small utility closet or basement corner in an older home may need updated venting or connections when it’s replaced. Allen Service handles water heater repair and replacement for tank and tankless models, and in Lakewood, a replacement must be permitted by a registered plumbing contractor.
Sewage Cleanup
When an old sewer lateral fails, sewage can come up through a basement floor drain. Our crew removes the contamination, cleans the space, and repairs the line that caused the backup.
Mold Removal
Basements and bathrooms with limited ventilation can hold moisture long after a leak. Allen Service removes mold from affected areas and corrects the plumbing issue that allowed it to start.
Water Damage Restoration
Whether it’s a burst pipe in the basement or an overflowing tub upstairs, we remove standing water, dry the area, and address damaged materials, then finish the plumbing repair.

5 Reasons To Call an Lakewood Plumbing Contractor
Older plumbing usually gives warning signs before it fails. Call a local plumber if your Lakewood home shows any of these.
- Rusty or Discolored Water: Brown or yellow water from the tap can point to corroding galvanized pipe.
- Drains That Back Up in More Than One Place: Several slow or backed-up drains often mean trouble in the main sewer line, especially if it’s original to the house.
- Water Pressure That Keeps Dropping: Mineral buildup inside old steel pipe narrows the opening over time.
- Shutoff Valves That Won’t Turn: Valves that have sat untouched for decades can seize or leak when you need them most.
- A Water Heater Past Its Prime: Rust at the base, leaks, or inconsistent hot water are signs it’s time for repair or replacement.
Do You Need a Permit for Plumbing Services in Lakewood?
Yes, in most cases. The City of Lakewood issues plumbing permits for new work as well as replacement and repair work, and a water heater replacement must be permitted by a registered plumbing contractor. Water and sewer service line work has its own permit types, and work in the public right-of-way needs an additional permit. Applications go through the city’s eTRAKiT system.
