How it works

From your call to a fixed pipe or warm home

No mystery, no meter running — here's exactly what happens when you call Pitsch.

  1. Call any time

    A live dispatcher — not a voicemail — answers 24/7 and gives you an honest arrival window for Akron and surrounding areas.

  2. Get an upfront quote

    Your tech diagnoses the problem and hands you a flat-rate quote to approve before any work starts. No approval, no charge.

  3. We fix it

    Stocked trucks mean most repairs finish in one visit, with drop cloths down and the work area cleaner than we found it.

  4. Backed in writing

    Every repair leaves with a 1-year labor warranty. If it leaks or fails, we come back and make it right at no cost.

Neighbors talking

What Akron says about Pitsch

Our furnace died on the coldest night of the year. Pitsch had a tech out within an hour, fixed it on the spot, and the price was exactly what they quoted.

Third plumber we called about a recurring kitchen clog, first one to run a camera. Found a bellied line, jetted it, and it hasn't backed up since.

They repiped our 1962 ranch house in three days. Walls patched, floors spotless, and the rusty water is gone for good.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you really answer 24/7?

Yes — a live dispatcher answers our emergency line around the clock, every day of the year, and an on-call tech is always within reach of Akron.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Pitsch Plumbing & Heating Co is fully licensed, insured, and bonded. We carry general liability and workers' comp on every technician.

Does emergency work cost more?

Our flat-rate book is the same day or night. You approve the exact price before we start, whether it's a Tuesday morning or a holiday at 3 AM.

Tank or tankless water heater — which should I choose?

Tankless costs more upfront but delivers endless hot water and lasts about twice as long. We size and price both options so you can compare side by side.

What areas do you serve?

Akron and surrounding areas, including Barberton, Cuyahoga Falls, Stow, and Kent.
