4426 Chisholm Rd, Florence
(256) 766-7770Florence anchors the Shoals, and the plumbers here treat the whole region as home ground. The 13 plumbers on this page include shops based in Sheffield, Tuscumbia, Muscle Shoals, Killen, Cherokee and Bailey Springs, and the map stretches past all of them: Pro Plumbing & Gasfitting, LLC, headquartered in Sheffield, holds Alabama state license MPG 449 and covers the Shoals plus Colbert, Lauderdale, Franklin and Marion Counties, with extra attention to Killen and Turtle Point. Together the page holds 1178 Google reviews at an average rating of 4.3.
Crouch and Sons Plumbing LLC works out of Florence with the deepest review record here, 4.9 from 801, master plumber certifications behind it, weekday hours of 7 to 5 and after-hours emergency service outside them. State Line Septic and Plumbing, also branded State-Line Septic Pro, LLC, pairs septic system work with plumbing for homeowners and businesses across northern Alabama and southern middle Tennessee, a service area that crosses the line the name promises, and holds 5.0 from 72 reviews. Barnett Plumbing, LLC shows the tempo of a shop that moves: a 3 o'clock Friday afternoon call got an after-hours response, the lines were snaked, and the bigger problem underneath was set for repair first thing Monday.
Leak finding is where this market leans hardest. Most of the shops here take leak detection and repair calls, and some treat it as a specialty: Eden's Plumbing LLC of Muscle Shoals built a following on second-opinion calls, finding on the spot what an earlier company left incomplete, and Olympus Plumbing LLC of Killen pinpointed two separate leaks at one house and repaired both without trouble. Shoals Plumbing, in Tuscumbia, took care of what one customer described as a waterfall running between the first floor and the basement. Beck Boys Plumbing & Gas Piping, in Bailey Springs, takes leak calls too, rated 4.0 from 12.

1313 Sherrod Ave, Florence
(256) 764-6812Gas fitting has real footing in the Shoals. Pro Plumbing & Gasfitting, LLC does what its name says, and Cutter Contracting, LLC, a licensed master gas plumbing company and general contractor based in Muscle Shoals, installs, maintains and repairs gas appliances and systems, from standard tank water heaters to tankless conversions. Water heater work is broad as well: Barnett Plumbing draws praise for its installs, and Glover Plumbing has spent more than 25 years as Killen's full-service plumber, covering water heater repair and installation for homes and businesses along the way.
The smaller records read as numbers first. Thorn's Plumbing, answering calls in Cherokee, holds 4.9 from 32 reviews, and the wins customers count go back fifteen years, from hot water in winter again to a toilet behaving and no leaks left behind. Charlie's Plumbing Services carries 3.4 from 10, and Beck's Plumbing sits at 2.1 from 11; call before you plan a job around either one.
Killen sits on this page twice, with Glover Plumbing and Olympus Plumbing LLC both based there, and Muscle Shoals carries two shops of its own, Cutter Contracting, LLC and Eden's Plumbing LLC. Tuscumbia and Cherokee come up as places the shops here already work. When a job points toward Decatur, Trinity, Hartselle, Madison or Toney, those towns keep their own pages.
Hiring a plumber in Florence: local notes
North Alabama and the Tennessee Valley — Huntsville and Madison, the Decatur shoals, the Shoals and the mountain towns east.
What the climate does here
- The valley's limestone aquifers load the water with dissolved minerals — hard water is why water softeners, descaling and shortened water-heater life come up constantly here.
- North Alabama sees the state's hardest freezes. The December 2022 arctic outbreak cracked mains, spigots and water heaters across Huntsville and Decatur, and the 2014 polar vortex did the same.
- This is the heart of Dixie Alley: the April 2011 outbreak remains the benchmark, and tornado-damaged homes bring emergency re-pipe and meter-set work after every severe season.
- Karst geology means occasional sinkholes and shifting ground that move buried service lines without warning.
Before you sign
- Ask about hard-water handling: a softener or a descaling plan extends a tank heater's life here more than anywhere else in the state.
- Before the first hard freeze, insulate crawlspace runs and hose bibbs; North Alabama plumbers run their busiest burst-pipe days in exactly these cold snaps.
- If you are digging, Alabama 811 locates buried lines first — karst ground can shift a line away from where the old map says it is.
- Ask for the company's state registration and the individual's certification level — apprentice, journeyman or master — before any quote is scheduled.
- Check the certificate in the Board's own business search; the record here shows the license number and issue date, the Board shows the current status.
- Confirm who pulls the permit for anything beyond a like-for-like swap, and make the inspection schedule part of the written estimate.
Licensing: Plumbing is a state-certified trade in Alabama: the Plumbers & Gas Fitters Examining Board certifies every level from apprentice to master, and registered companies must carry a Principal Master. City building departments add local licenses and pull permits for code-covered work. Verify a license in the Board's business search (status and expiration live there, not here) — see Alabama Plumbers & Gas Fitters Examining Board. Before any job that digs, Alabama 811 locates buried lines free.
Common questions about plumbers in Florence
Which Florence plumbers cover the towns around the Shoals?
Pro Plumbing & Gasfitting, LLC, headquartered in Sheffield, covers the Shoals plus Colbert, Lauderdale, Franklin and Marion Counties, with attention to Killen and Turtle Point. State Line Septic and Plumbing works northern Alabama and crosses into southern middle Tennessee. Glover Plumbing has been Killen's full-service plumber for more than 25 years, working residential and commercial jobs across the area.
Who finds a hidden water leak here?
Leak tracing is a strength across the page. Olympus Plumbing LLC pinpointed two separate leaks at one Killen house quickly and repaired both, and Eden's Plumbing LLC of Muscle Shoals takes the second-opinion calls other companies left unfinished, including a clogged sewer line found on the spot. Shoals Plumbing in Tuscumbia handled a leak running between the first floor and the basement of one house.
Do any plumbers here work on gas lines and gas appliances?
Yes. Pro Plumbing & Gasfitting, LLC works under Alabama state license MPG 449, and Cutter Contracting, LLC, a licensed master gas plumbing company, installs, maintains and repairs gas appliances and systems, including tankless conversions. Glover Plumbing takes gas line work as part of its residential and commercial service as well.
Who works on water heaters, tank and tankless, in Florence?
Barnett Plumbing, LLC draws praise for water heater installs, including a job that started with a 3 o'clock Friday afternoon call and an after-hours response. Cutter Contracting, LLC runs replacements from standard tank units to tankless conversions, and Crouch and Sons Plumbing LLC carries tankless work too, backed by a 4.9 rating from 801 reviews.
Which shops cross the state line from Florence?
State Line Septic and Plumbing is the one built for it: septic and plumbing work across northern Alabama and southern middle Tennessee, under its name or the State-Line Septic Pro, LLC brand. For jobs that stay in Alabama, Pro Plumbing & Gasfitting, LLC covers the Shoals and four counties, and Thorn's Plumbing answers calls in Cherokee, one of the smaller towns on this page.
How do I check a plumber's certification in Alabama?
Ask the business for its license number, then look it up in the Board's own business search. Listing pages on this directory show the license number and the year it was issued where a Board record exists; the Board's search is where the current status lives, so check there before you hire.
Why is water heater scale such a theme in Huntsville and Decatur?
The Tennessee Valley sits on limestone, and the groundwater it feeds is hard — dissolved minerals plate out inside tank heaters, tankless heat exchangers and fixtures. Local plumbers recommend flushing tank heaters yearly (or more), and many keep softener or treatment options ready. It is the single cheapest way to add years to a heater in this region.
