Why Homeowners in Merrimack, 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 Merrimack, NH
Merrimack grew up around river crossings, and you can still see that in its neighborhoods. The oldest homes sit in Merrimack Village along the Souhegan River and in the old ferry villages of Reeds Ferry and Thornton’s Ferry, where 1800s houses often have stone foundations and plumbing that has been replaced in bits and pieces. The town’s big growth came in the 1970s and 80s, filling in with raised ranches, split-levels, and colonials whose original pipes and water heaters are now getting old. Newer neighborhoods add modern systems that still need regular care.
LHR Plumbing and Heating handles plumbing for every era of Merrimack home. Check out our residential plumbing services to see how we can help.
Plumbing Repair & Troubleshooting
Between two rivers, damp lower levels, and stretches of bitter cold, Merrimack plumbing gets put to work. These are the problems we see most around town.
- Frozen lines often hit raised ranches and split-levels with plumbing in garage walls or over unheated spaces.
- Hidden leaks in damp lower levels near the rivers can go unnoticed until mold or rot shows up.
- Slow or backed-up drains build up in lines that have served the same house for 40 years or more.
- Failing water heaters in 1970s and 80s homes start leaking or can’t keep up with demand.
- Aging pipes in older village homes lose pressure and spring leaks at old joints.
We fix the real reason the problem happened and test our work before leaving.
Water Heater Installations & Upgrades
Merrimack’s split-levels and raised ranches often have water heaters tucked into small utility rooms that make replacements tricky. We can install a new tank sized for your household or switch you to a compact tankless water heater that mounts on the wall and frees up floor space. Financing is available to help with the cost.
Planning something bigger? If you are remodeling a lower level or adding a bathroom, we will plan the plumbing and hot water for your whole home. All work meets current code.

A Recent Plumbing Job in Merrimack, NH
On one of the coldest mornings last winter, Matt turned on the kitchen faucet in his Reeds Ferry split-level and nothing came out. The supply line ran along an outside wall right next to the garage. Our plumber thawed it safely, checked for cracks, and added insulation to that section of wall. Matt said he was glad to get his water back before his family woke up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Older homes near the river often have aging pipes, stone foundations, and damp basements that speed up corrosion. An inspection helps you see what needs attention first.
Clogs that keep returning, low water pressure, musty smells, or stains on walls and ceilings are warning signs. They often point to a hidden leak or deeper blockage.
Larger jobs like water heater replacements, new fixtures, or moving pipes usually need a permit from the Town of Merrimack. Simple repairs typically don’t. We will tell you up front if yours does.
Colder incoming water in winter makes your heater work longer, and older tanks with sediment fall behind fast. Our water heater team can service, repair, or replace a unit that can’t keep up.
Yes. We serve Merrimack from our Manchester location and respond quickly to burst pipes, leaks, and backups. Give us a call to get help on the way.
