Kitchen and Bathroom Plumbing in Charlottesville, VA
Kitchens and bathrooms concentrate most of a home’s plumbing into its most-used spaces: supply lines, drains, fixtures, valves, and appliances stacked into cabinets and walls where small failures hide until they are large ones. Robertson Electric provides kitchen and bathroom plumbing in Charlottesville, VA and the surrounding counties, from single-fixture repairs to the rough-in and finish plumbing of full remodels.
Schedule with Robertson Electric by phone, online, or 24/7 chat, and keep both rooms working on documented evidence.

Kitchen Plumbing
Kitchen work covers sinks and faucets, garbage disposals, dishwasher and refrigerator water connections, pot fillers, and the supply and drain lines serving all of it. The kitchen’s chronic patient is its drain line, which grease and soap close from the inside over years, and its quiet risk is the cluster of aging connections inside the sink cabinet, where a failed disposal gasket or supply line can run for days behind closed doors. We repair at the cause, replace what has earned it, and photograph findings so the state of your cabinet’s plumbing is documented, not described.
Bathroom Plumbing
Bathroom work spans faucets, sinks, tubs, showers, shower valves, and toilets, plus the supply and drain infrastructure behind the tile. Shower valves deserve their special mention: a shower that will not hold temperature or drips behind the wall has a valve problem whose repair is far cheaper than the rot the drip funds. Fixture-specific repairs are detailed under our faucet repair and toilet repair pages, and chronically slow tub and sink drains belong to our drain clearing services.
Remodels and Upgrades
Remodel plumbing is where planning pays: relocating fixtures means rerouting supply and drain lines with correct slope and venting, older homes reveal their pipe eras the moment walls open, and appliance upgrades change demand. We handle rough-in and finish work with permits where required, coordinate with your contractor or directly with you, and back installations with the 10-Year Worry-Free Warranty. When opened walls reveal galvanized or failing supply piping, the honest conversation routes to our repiping services while access is cheap, and hot water capacity questions to our water heater services.

FAQs
What plumbing should be checked when buying an older home's kitchen or bath?
The supply material and shutoff condition inside the cabinets, the drain’s behavior under real use, and any softness in the floor near tubs and toilets. Those three findings predict most of the first year’s surprises.
Why does my garbage disposal hum but not spin?
The motor is energized against a jam, and running it that way burns the motor. Power off, clear the jam by the manufacturer’s method, and if humming persists the bearings or motor are done, at which point we quote replacement honestly.
Can a bathroom be added to a home without negatively impacting my plumbing?
Usually, at a cost set by drainage: getting waste to the main line with correct slope and venting is the engineering, and basements and additions each have their standard solutions. We scope it with the drain path first.
Why does my shower go cold when someone runs a faucet?
A pressure-balance problem, typically an aging shower valve or undersized supply lines reacting to competing demand. Modern valves hold temperature through pressure swings, and replacing the valve fixes what behavior changes cannot.
Is a slow leak urgent?
Leaks should always be addressed when discovered. Leaks feed mold and damage home materials within weeks while staying out of sight. Anything damp under a sink deserves a look now rather than a demolition later.

Robertson Electric was quick to reply to my call for help when my water heater was malfunctioning. They actually acquired a new one for me and showed up that very afternoon when they were extremely busy. The repairman was so competent and quickly addressed the problem, saving me a couple of thousand dollars even after they had the new water heater on the truck. In other words, they came to my rescue and I will continue to use them whenever I can.

The pressure switch on my water tank failed one afternoon, spraying water everywhere! I got everything shut off and called Robertson Electric. The two gentlemen showed up on time, were professional, knowledgeable, polite and took the time to answer my questions. They got the switch repaired quickly and efficiently and I trust their work. As a repeat customer (they previously installed our central air system a few years ago - quite a task!) Robertson Electric is my "Go-To" for household repairs. I highly recommend them for any problems you may encounter.
