Years Experience
Who We Are
York Plumbing was built on 45 years of hands-on plumbing experience in the Kansas City metro. Owner and master technician Ronald York personally leads every project, backed by a tight-knit crew of licensed plumbers who treat every home and business the way they’d treat their own.
We’ve earned our reputation the hard way — one fair quote, one clean job site, and one satisfied Kansas City customer at a time. From national clients like Taco Bell, QuikTrip and local gas stations to everyday homeowners in Overland Park and Blue Springs, the work speaks for itself. No high-pressure sales. No surprise invoices. Just straight-shooter plumbers who show up, fix it right, and stand behind every job.
WHAT WE FIX, INSTALL & REPLACE

No hot water this morning? Leaking tank? Strange banging noises? We repair every major brand of water heater and install new tank and tankless units the same day when we have them in stock.
Slow sinks, gurgling tubs, and backed-up toilets — cleared quickly with proper drain machines, not chemicals that eat your pipes. We also handle main line drain cleaning.
Mystery wet spots, jumping water bills, or the sound of water running when nothing is on — we find hidden leaks in walls, ceilings, and slabs before they turn into real damage.
Running toilets, weak flushes, rocking bowls, and full replacements. We install the toilet you picked out, or help you pick one that fits your rough-in.
Kitchen faucets, bathroom vanities, laundry tubs, garbage disposals, ice maker lines — if it connects to a water line, we install it clean and leak-free.
Roots in the line, collapsed clay tile, or a sewer that backs up after every heavy rain? We run a camera to see exactly what is happening and give you real options — not a blank estimate.
Leaking supply line from the meter to the house, low pressure, or rusty water? We replace main water lines and interior supply lines with code-approved materials.
Basement flooding after every storm? We install and service primary sump pumps, backup pumps, and battery backups so your finished basement stays finished.
Burst pipe, sewer backup, or water heater leaking into the garage? Call day or night — we are the emergency plumber Kansas City homeowners actually reach a human at.
THE YORK DIFFERENCE
Our team of licensed, insured, and experienced Kansas City plumbers are experts in residential and commercial plumbing repair, sewer line work, water heaters, and drain cleaning. Led by a master technician with 45 years in the trade.
Plumbing problems are stressful enough. That’s why we keep pricing competitive, pricing upfront, and estimates free — so quality plumbing services in Kansas City stay accessible whether you’re a homeowner or a small business.
We answer the phone. We show up when we say we will. We walk you through what we’re doing and why. It’s the kind of customer service Kansas City has been missing from its plumbers — and the reason most of our work comes from referrals and repeat clients.
45 years of master-technician experience means we’ve seen it — sewer line backups, broken water lines, tankless water heater installs, sump pump failures after a KC storm. You get a plumber who fixes the problem the first time and doesn’t come back a week later to redo it.
HOW IT WORKS
Ron York is on the job — not behind a desk. You get a master plumber’s eye on every sewer, water line, and water heater project, not a rookie learning on your dime.
Fully licensed across Missouri and Kansas and carrying full liability insurance. The work is permitted where it should be permitted, and inspected when it should be inspected.
From the sewer lines under older homes in Kansas City, MO to new builds out in Olathe and Lee’s Summit, we’ve plumbed this metro for four decades. We know the soil, the city codes, and the older pipe systems.
Free estimates. Fair rates. No gotcha add-ons at the end of the invoice. If something needs to change mid-job, you’ll hear from us before we do anything else.
