Ask any plumber who’s been working in Erlanger, Florence, and the surrounding NKY communities for more than a few years and they’ll tell you the same thing, the drain systems in these neighborhoods have stories. The cast iron floor drain in a Covington basement that’s been in place since Truman was president. The shower drain in a Florence split-level that’s been snaked so many times the threads are worn smooth. The kitchen drain under the sink in an Erlanger ranch home that smells no matter what goes down it because the trap cracked three winters ago and nobody knew.
Boone and Kenton counties have some of the oldest residential housing stock in the tri-state region, and the drain lines that came with those homes were never going to last forever. When cleaning stops working, when the same drain backs up again three weeks after being snaked, when the odor comes back no matter what you pour down it, when water starts appearing under the cabinet that wasn’t there before, that’s the conversation worth having. Arlinghaus replaces and installs drain lines for homeowners throughout Erlanger, Florence, Covington, Newport, Independence, and all of Northern Kentucky. We diagnose whether your drain needs cleaning or replacing, and if replacement is the answer, we do it right the first time with same-day service available and 24/7 emergency response for drain and sewer situations that can’t wait.

Kitchen sink drains handle more daily use than almost any other drain in the home and in NKY homes where hard water contributes to mineral buildup inside drain lines, they wear faster than most homeowners expect. Arlinghaus replaces kitchen sink drains, garbage disposal drain connections, and under-sink P-trap assemblies throughout Erlanger and Florence. If the existing drain body is corroded, leaking, or improperly configured, we replace it completely rather than patching a component that will fail again.
Bathtub and shower drain replacement is one of our most common service calls from NKY homeowners. A shower drain that requires frequent cleaning despite a drain strainer, a tub drain that smells persistently, or a drain that’s visibly cracked or rusted needs replacement rather than repeated cleaning. Arlinghaus replaces tub and shower drains including the drain body, overflow plate assembly, and P-trap, everything needed for a properly sealed, correctly sloped installation.
Bathroom sink drains, particularly pop-up drain assemblies in older NKY homes, corrode and fail at the drain body and stopper mechanism over time. We replace pop-up assemblies, P-traps, and drain bodies for bathroom vanities throughout Erlanger, Florence, and Northern Kentucky.
Floor drains in NKY basements and utility rooms take on significant water intrusion during the heavy spring rain events this region sees every year. A floor drain that’s backing up, draining slowly, or emitting odor may have a failed trap, a deteriorated drain body, or an inadequate connection to the main line. Arlinghaus replaces and installs floor drains throughout Northern Kentucky, including the P-trap and backflow prevention components that keep sewer gas from entering the basement when the drain isn’t actively being used.
Outdoor drainage and basement drain installation are more involved projects that often include French drain systems, trench drains, and area drains designed to redirect surface water away from foundations. For NKY homes in Erlanger and Florence where clay-heavy soil holds moisture against foundation walls, proper exterior drainage is one of the most impactful improvements a homeowner can make. Arlinghaus assesses your specific drainage situation and installs the right system for your property’s grade and soil conditions.
Putting off drain replacement doesn’t just mean living with a slow drain – it means allowing a problem to compound:
A floor drain actively backing up sewage, complete loss of drainage throughout the home, or a drain failure causing active water damage can’t wait. Arlinghaus provides 24/7 emergency drain service throughout Erlanger, Florence, and all of Northern Kentucky with fully stocked trucks that allow most emergency drain repairs and replacements to be completed in a single visit. If multiple fixtures are backing up simultaneously, stop using all fixtures and call us immediately.
Don’t keep cleaning a drain that needs replacing. Call Arlinghaus now or book online, same-day drain replacement and installation throughout Erlanger, Florence, and all of Northern Kentucky.
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.
