Plumbing in Johnson City
Johnson City is the largest city in the Tri-Cities, with a population over 71,000 and East Tennessee State University at its center. The city spans three counties (Washington, Carter and Sullivan), and most water and sewer service comes through Johnson City Water and Sewer Services, which serves roughly 130,000 people across four counties and draws from an intake on the Watauga River. The Watauga River arm of Boone Lake is partly inside the city limits.
Frazier Plumbing is a family-owned, service-area business based in Bluff City, and we've served Johnson City homes and businesses since 1980.
Common Plumbing Problems in Johnson City Homes
Johnson City's housing changes a lot from one neighborhood to the next, and the age of the house usually tells you what to expect.
Early 1900s homes, like the Craftsman bungalows and foursquares in the Tree Streets and on the South Side near Buffalo Mountain, often still have some original galvanized steel supply lines and older cast iron or clay drain lines, because plumbing in houses that old has usually been repaired in sections over the decades. Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside, which shows up as low pressure and brown water. Older drain lines corrode, crack, or fill with roots.
Mid-century ranches, the typical home around ETSU and in Boones Creek and Winged Deer Park, were built in an era when some homes used Orangeburg pipe for the sewer line. Orangeburg is a fiber and tar pipe used through the 1970s. It lasts about 50 years under good conditions and has failed in as few as 10, so a sewer line under a 1950s to 1970s home that has never been inspected is worth a camera check.
Recent Johnson City Work
Water heater replacement. At a commercial property in Johnson City, we replaced a wall-mounted water heater and went from a 6 gallon unit to a 10 gallon unit. The heater sits high on a steel wall bracket near the ceiling, so the job was as much about working at height as swapping the tank.
Faucet replacement. We replaced the wall-mounted faucet on a two-compartment commercial sink at a Johnson City business.
