Our Commitment to You
"Hi, I'm Nick Gerhard Jr. When I started DrainTek, I set out to build a service company that puts the customer first. Too often, people feel taken advantage of by corporate franchise plumbing outfits that play games with pricing or charge high hourly rates that reward slower work."
"We do things differently. We inspect the problem, outline exactly what needs to be done, and give you a flat-rate price *before* we pick up a tool. You know exactly what you are paying, no matter how long it takes. That is the DrainTek promise."
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about plumbing repair, bookings, and emergency service calls.
With flat-rate pricing, you pay a single fixed fee for the specific repair task, regardless of how many hours the technician spends resolving it. This protects you from pay-by-the-hour pricing, where slower work costs you more money. You approve the price upfront before we begin.
No, we do not charge emergency surcharges or extra travel fees. We offer transparent pricing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. An emergency on Sunday night costs the same flat rate as a scheduled repair on Tuesday morning.
We're based in Middletown (45044) and serve Hamilton, Lebanon, and the greater Cincinnati and Dayton areas, plus surrounding communities within about a 100-mile radius. Use our zip code checker in the hero section to verify coverage instantly.
