112 W Section Ave Ste 106, Foley
(251) 979-9396Leak detection and repair sits on every service list on the Foley page, and water heaters run just behind it at three of the four plumbers, two of which fit tankless units. The work leans residential but not entirely: one crew takes commercial calls, one installs gas lines, and 24/7 emergency response sits with Gone Coastal Plumbing and Air. Baldwin County is the ground these businesses share, with the Alabama Gulf Coast beyond it.
Gone Coastal Plumbing and Air is the Foley name with the longest review file: 5.0 from 266 Google reviews. Locally owned and pairing plumbing with HVAC, it serves homes and businesses across Baldwin County and the Alabama Gulf Coast with more than 20 years of experience behind a licensed team, and the list runs from 24/7 emergency calls and drain cleaning to water heaters, leak detection, repiping, sewer line repair and replacement, sump and grinder pumps, remodel and new construction work, commercial jobs and financing.
Deep South Plumbing LLC, 4.9 from 31 reviews, draws repeat customers on the strength of Jesse's work at what customers call great rates, and the range shows up in the reviews themselves: one caller asked about error codes on a tankless water heater display and got an evaluation on the spot because Jesse was nearby on another call. Dyer Plumbing LLC holds a 5.0 from 19, and its feedback reads like a punch list: two toilets set, leaking shower valves replaced, a tankless water heater installed, all by a plumber customers describe as friendly, professional, affordable and quick to answer the phone.

Hiring a plumber in Foley: local notes
Gulf Coast — Mobile Bay, the Baldwin County shore towns and the pine woods behind them.
What the climate does here
- Hurricane and tropical-storm season runs June through November, and the remnant rains alone can flood streets and crawlspaces far inland from the landfall point.
- This is the wettest corner of the state: roughly 55 to 65 inches of rain a year, which keeps the water table high and septic drainfields working hard after wet summers.
- Salt air reaches well past the beach line, and it eats outdoor fixtures, hose bibbs and exposed gas piping faster than it does inland.
- Winters are the mildest in Alabama, but a single hard snap still bursts uninsulated pipes, and coastal houses built slab-on-grade hide those leaks under the floor.
Before you sign
- Ask Gulf Coast plumbers how they handle storm-season demand: sump and backup pumps, generator power and post-storm sewer backups are routine work here.
- If the property sits in a flood zone, ask how the water heater and air handler are elevated to meet local flood rules before you replace either one.
- Outdoor metal work near the bay should be specified for corrosion — a cheap fixture fails in a couple of seasons where one a hundred miles inland lasts ten.
- 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 Foley
Which Foley plumbers find hidden leaks?
Leak detection and repair sits on every service list in Foley. Gone Coastal Plumbing and Air pairs it with drain cleaning and sewer line work, Deep South Plumbing LLC pairs it with repiping, and Dyer Plumbing LLC with water heater installs, so a hidden leak can be traced and repaired by any of them.
Who answers plumbing calls overnight in Foley?
Gone Coastal Plumbing and Air runs 24/7 emergency service as part of its licensed operation, and C & J Plumbing is the shop customers mention for pickup: a real person answers even when the crew is already on a job, which is how one weekend water shutoff over a leaky faucet got fixed after three other plumbers did not pick up.
Do Foley shops install tankless water heaters?
Two do: Deep South Plumbing LLC and Dyer Plumbing LLC both confirm tankless water heater work, and the reviews back it up, from the tankless error code call Deep South evaluated on the spot to the tankless unit Dyer set in place. Gone Coastal Plumbing and Air covers standard water heater work alongside its emergency and drain services.
Who works on gas lines in Foley?
C & J Plumbing takes gas line work alongside its general plumbing and leak repair, so a caller with a gas appliance, a grill line or a generator hookup can raise it with the same shop that answers the phone on the first ring. It is the one shop on the Foley page with gas work in its list.
Which nearby towns have their own pages?
Silverhill, Summerdale, Fairhope, Elberta and Daphne each carry a page, so readers in those Baldwin County towns can see the shops closest to them. Foley's own page is the one for the four businesses described here.
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.
Does the Gulf Coast climate change what I should ask a plumber?
Yes. Around Mobile Bay the combination of heavy rain, a high water table and salt air makes drainage work, sump pumps, corrosion-resistant outdoor fixtures and post-storm sewer backups the local specialties. After a named storm, expect a wait for non-emergency work and ask about flood-zone equipment rules before replacing a water heater.
