Not every plumbing problem calls for a repair. In a city where roughly 40.8% of homes were built before 1940 and the median build year is 1951, a significant share of Cincinnati’s housing stock is still running on original galvanized supply lines, cast iron drain systems, and plumbing that has simply reached the end of its practical life. At some point, another patch repair stops making sense and a proper installation is the smarter long-term call.
Arlinghaus handles the full range of plumbing installation work throughout Cincinnati and Hamilton, Butler, and Clermont Counties, from single fixture upgrades and water heater replacements to full whole-house repiping and new construction rough-ins. We give you an honest read on whether repair or installation makes more sense for your situation before any work begins, and we back every job with upfront pricing, financing options, and our Happy House Seal of Approval guarantee.
With 7,000+ reviews and a 4.9-star rating across our locations and Best in Cincinnati recognition, Cincinnati homeowners are a big part of how we built that track record, one installation at a time.

Cincinnati’s median home was built in 1951, and roughly 40.8% of homes predate 1940. In neighborhoods like Northside, Walnut Hills, and Clifton, original galvanized steel supply lines and cast iron drain stacks are still common. These aren’t materials that fail all at once; they degrade gradually, which is why the same home can go years with minor repairs before the cumulative wear becomes impossible to patch around.
Galvanized steel corrodes from the inside, narrowing over time and eventually failing at joints and fittings. Cast iron drain systems crack, separate at joints, and accumulate buildup that no amount of cleaning fully resolves. Once a pipe has deteriorated along its length rather than at a single point, a spot repair addresses the symptom but not the system.
Homes built before 1986 carry an additional consideration: lead solder was commonly used on copper supply line joints before it was banned that year. If your home falls in that window and you haven’t had the supply lines evaluated, a full repipe removes the question entirely.
A whole-house repipe with modern PEX or copper supply lines isn’t an emergency fix, it’s a durable, long-term upgrade that eliminates a category of problems rather than managing them one call at a time.
We’re a family-owned business with deep roots in the Erlanger, Kentucky, and Greater Cincinnati communities. Our commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction has made us a trusted name in the area for years. Here’s a little more about what makes our electrical company stand out:

Arlinghaus installs the full range of residential plumbing fixtures and systems across Cincinnati:
Plumbing installation costs vary depending on the scope of work, and the best way to get an accurate number is to have a licensed plumber assess your home first. A few factors that consistently affect the price:
Arlinghaus provides upfront pricing before any work begins so you know exactly what you’re agreeing to. For larger projects like whole-house repiping or new sewer lateral work, financing options are available to help keep the right solution on the table regardless of budget timing.
New plumbing installation in Cincinnati isn’t just a technical job, it’s a permitted one. The City of Cincinnati Department of Buildings & Inspections issues permits for sewer lateral installation, gas line additions, whole-house repiping, and other significant plumbing work. Pulling the right permit matters both for code compliance and for your records if you ever sell the home.
Arlinghaus handles permit coordination as part of the installation process. We file what’s required, schedule any necessary inspections, and make sure the work is properly documented. So you’re not left managing the paperwork on top of the project itself.
Cincinnati’s older neighborhoods are in the middle of a long renovation wave. Walnut Hills and Northside have all seen significant reinvestment over the past decade, with older housing stock being gut-renovated, converted, and updated. That kind of project doesn’t just call for new fixtures, it often requires entirely new rough-in plumbing behind the walls, updated supply and drain configurations, and installation that works with the home’s existing structure rather than against it.
Arlinghaus works on both new construction projects and full remodel rough-ins across Hamilton County. Whether you’re building from the ground up or gutting a pre-war Cincinnati two-flat for a full renovation, we handle the plumbing from rough-in through trim-out.
Whether you’re replacing a single fixture or planning a full repipe, we’ll give you an honest assessment and a clear price before anything gets started. Call us to schedule a visit anywhere across Cincinnati and Hamilton County.
We believe that one of life’s greatest gifts is the ability to celebrate one’s place in a thriving community, with family and friends, where everyone shares a common set of goals and dreams. We are fortunate to work and live in great communities throughout Kentucky, Cincinnati and Indiana, areas that have welcomed and embraced us over the years. We are happy to give back to those communities through a variety of initiatives, some very public, others totally private. We’re a people-first company.
