(256) 845-1382The Fort Payne pair bring their own habits. Plumber Dan Services LLC, rated 4.5 from 31 reviews, came out after hours on the same day a customer made contact, quick and clearly experienced, and explains the work before starting it. Chadwick Plumbing Services, rated 4.0 from 16 reviews, covers home and business calls for a customer who has used it for most everything, fixed up a rental house with a huge mess of old cast iron sewer lines, and handles possible slab leaks with care.
Water heaters and leak detection are the busiest lanes here, with drain cleaning close behind: Wolf Plumbing Services takes leak detection calls, Chadwick Plumbing Services works sewer lines and commercial jobs, and Chad's Plumbing & Drain Cleaning takes remodel and new construction work. Emergency cover is thinner, resting on Plumber Dan Services LLC's after-hours effort.

Hiring a plumber in Talladega: local notes
Central Alabama — Birmingham and its ridge-and-valley suburbs, Tuscaloosa, Anniston and Gadsden.
What the climate does here
- Ridge-and-valley red clay moves with the weather, and the region's older neighborhoods — Birmingham's pre-1950 stock above all — still run on galvanized steel and cast iron that age out together.
- Central Alabama sits in Dixie Alley: the April 2011 outbreak tore through Birmingham's suburbs, and post-storm re-pipes and meter sets follow every severe season.
- Ice storms are the winter signature — a thin glaze is enough to snap tree limbs onto service lines and cut power for days, which is why battery-backup sump pumps sell here.
- Summer storms drop intense rain on narrow valleys, so yard drains, area drains and sewer laterals take the water all at once.
Before you sign
- In Birmingham's older neighborhoods, ask whether the supply lines are original galvanized; a whole-house repipe quote is easier to take before the pinhole leaks start.
- Camera the sewer lateral before buying an mid-century house — big clay laterals under these neighborhoods root-in and belly where the clay soil has moved.
- Tuscaloosa, Anniston and Gadsden carry the same aging-mains issues as Birmingham with fewer contractors per capita, so book non-emergencies early in the week.
- 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.

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.
Are repipes as common in Birmingham as it sounds?
Yes. Birmingham's pre-1950 neighborhoods were plumbed in galvanized steel and cast iron, and that stock ages out in clusters — once one neighbor is repiping, the street usually follows within a few years. Most local plumbers quote whole-house PEX or copper repipes, and the listing tiles on this site show which businesses confirm repiping work before you call.
