Why Homeowners in Hooksett, NH Trust Us
Our tankless water heater stopped working right before Christmas leaving us with not only no hot water, but not even water to do laundry or run the dish washer.
So finding a good plumber, you can rely on, is different than finding a good plumber. When my family needed a plumber recently, LHR handled our call.
LHR got my service scheduled immediately for 2 days out from the day I called. Cody, the technician, showed up on time and was professional.
This is a completely professional organization start-to-finish. From my first phone call through the service to the follow-up, the LHR team treated me with kindness.
Cold call (literally!) from Hot Water Heater Manufacturer website. No prior relationship with them. No problem. Came same day. Tech friendly and knowledgeable.
Plumber in Hooksett, NH
Hooksett grew up along the Merrimack River, and its homes still tell that story. Older houses in Hooksett Village date to the mill days, with cast iron stacks and damp stone basements close to the river’s water table. Homes from the 1950s through the 70s often have galvanized lines clogging with rust. Newer neighborhoods in South Hooksett and around Head’s Pond have modern piping, but builder-grade water heaters and fixtures are now due for replacement.
LHR Plumbing and Heating handles every one of them. Our residential plumbing team works on century-old village homes and brand-new builds alike.
Plumbing Repair & Troubleshooting
Living near the river and through a New Hampshire winter puts steady pressure on Hooksett pipes, and a few problems keep coming up.
- Frozen lines are common in homes with plumbing along north-facing walls or in drafty basements near the river.
- Hidden leaks under slabs and behind walls can quietly push your water bill higher for months.
- Slow or backed-up drains often trace back to old cast iron or roots finding their way into sewer lines.
- Failing water heaters start rumbling, leaking, or running out of hot water too soon.
- Aging pipes in older village homes lose pressure as rust and scale build up inside.
Our plumbers find what is really causing the problem, fix it properly, and test the system before calling it done.
Water Heater Installations & Upgrades
Plenty of Hooksett homes still have a water heater sized for a smaller family or a simpler kitchen. When yours starts leaking or can’t keep up, we can swap in a new tank or install a tankless water heater that frees up basement space, a plus in tight village basements. Financing plans help make the switch easier on your budget.
Planning something bigger? If you are remodeling a bathroom or adding living space, we can map out hot water and piping for the whole house. All work meets current code.

A Recent Plumbing Job in Hooksett, NH
Jen, a homeowner in South Hooksett, noticed her water bill had nearly doubled even though nothing at home had changed. Our plumber used leak detection equipment and tracked the problem to a cracked line under the kitchen floor. We repaired the section and had her water back on the same day. Jen told us she was just glad to stop paying for water she never used.

Frequently Asked Questions
It’s worth a look. Older village homes can still have galvanized or cast iron pipe that rusts from the inside and restricts flow. A quick inspection tells you what shape they are in and what to plan for.
Clogs that return quickly, low water pressure, sewer smells, or a water bill that keeps rising are all warning signs. These often mean the issue is deeper in the line. Calling early usually means a simpler fix.
Bigger projects like bathroom additions, repiping, or water heater replacements usually need a permit from the Town of Hooksett. Small repairs typically don’t. We’ll tell you up front what your job requires.
Incoming water gets much colder in winter, so your heater has to work harder to bring it up to temperature. Older tanks with sediment buildup feel this the most. Our water heater team can flush, repair, or replace a unit that can’t keep up.
Yes. Hooksett is just up the road from our Manchester base, so we can get to you fast. Give us a call any time a plumbing emergency hits.
