Lemont's Plumber for Repairs and More

Leto Plumbing & Heating, Inc. is a licensed plumber serving Lemont, IL for plumbing repairs, drain cleaning, water heater service, pipe replacement and HVAC. We've done this for 24 years across Chicagoland, we answer every time, and we hold 4.8 stars across 53 Google reviews. Call (815) 609-3150 and we'll get someone to you.

Older Lemont homes can still have galvanized and cast iron pipe. Lemont's water is hard, and flood risk makes sump pump condition matter more than in drier parts of Will County.

What We Fix for Lemont Homeowners

Drain Cleaning

Recurring clogs here are often scale narrowing the pipe. We clear it and check the cause; if it keeps returning, the pipe needs attention.

Water Heater Repair and Replacement

In hard water, sediment builds fast. Tank and tankless water heater installations, with an honest flush, repair or replace call.

Pipe Repair and Replacement

Galvanized supply lines in older sections are decades past their useful life. We assess and replace to local code.

Leak Detection and Repair

Drummer silty clay shifts seasonally and stresses buried lines. A high bill, soft yard spots or a musty basement are worth checking.

Toilet Repair

Hard water scales fill valves and flappers. Most fixes take one visit.

Outdoor Spigot and Valve Work

Cracked outdoor spigots after a sub-zero stretch, and shutoff valves that won't close fully.

Hard Water

What Hard Water Does to Your Plumbing

Lemont groundwater is hard on pipes and fixtures.

Lemont's well water is hard. The white scale on aerators is also building in your water heater, on the element and in supply valves, so the unit works harder and dies early. Flushing helps until sediment compacts. If your water heater is noisy, lukewarm or running out fast, we'll say whether service or replacement is the honest answer, and how a softener or filter affects going tankless.

Older Lemont Homes: What to Expect Underground

Galvanized pipe corrodes inside while looking intact. Low pressure in one area, discolored first-draw water or pinhole leaks are the signals. Lemont's clay-heavy soil also shifts with moisture, cracking older cast iron or clay tile sewer sections and letting roots in. A drain that backs up despite cleaning is a pipe problem. We lay out options before it forces a costlier decision.

In February of 2026 I used Leto Plumbing & Heating on two occasions. First for an emergency after hours weekend call when my sump pump line was frozen during our recent sub-zero weather. The second was a routine maintenance call to flush my hot water heaters. Both times the individuals that came out were pros who were friendly, knowledgeable and got the job done right the first time. Would highly recommend!

Leto Plumbing has been servicing the plumbing and HVAC in our homes for many years. Rick and Chris, father and son, are amazing in every way. They are reliable, neat, courteous, and knowledgeable in all areas of plumbing and HVAC. They go out of their way to rush out to our home for needed repairs and new work. They may not be “cheap”, but you can rest easy that their work is top quality and will give you peace of mind. TFK St. Charles

Very happy with the service received by Leto plumbing. Starting with phone call made, very nice and was able to get us scheduled next day. Chris, technician, was earlier than originally expected (which was great), he explained everything, was very courteous and timely. Extremely happy with service provided and will be calling Leto for any future needs.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do during a plumbing emergency in Lemont before help arrives?
Turn off the main shutoff, usually where the line enters the basement or utility room near the front foundation wall in most Lemont homes. Find it before you need it. Call (815) 609-3150 and we'll talk you through it on the way.
How do I know if my older Lemont home needs its pipes replaced?
Galvanized supply lines in pre-1980s homes corrode from the inside. Watch for dropping pressure, rust-tinged water at first draw, buildup on pipe exteriors and frequent joint leaks. An inspection and pressure test shows whether repair or replacement makes sense.
Should I repair or replace my water heater in Lemont?
Hard water shortens tank life here. A unit over 10 years old that rumbles or runs uneven is usually better replaced; a younger one with a failed element or stuck valve is usually worth repairing. We give you an honest read.
Does plumbing work in Lemont require a permit?
Most do, including water heaters, sewer repairs and supply line replacements, through the Village of Lemont Building Department, which needs at least 24 hours' notice for an inspection. Unpermitted work causes trouble at resale or with insurance, so we handle the permit.
