MCM Plumbing & Drain Cleaning handles the plumbing calls that Oak Creek homeowners, landlords, property managers, and business operators deal with every day. Burst pipes in January. Drains that back up on a Friday night. A water heater that stops working before the first morning shower. We cover residential and commercial plumbing across Oak Creek and the surrounding Milwaukee County area, and same-day service is often available when you need someone out quickly. Real experience. Local knowledge. Ready to plumb.
A straightforward choice for homeowners and property managers, we handle everything from routine fixture work to full repiping jobs. Call for a quote at (414) 414-2993 and we will take it from there.
From drain cleaning to sewer line repair, we cover the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work in Oak Creek and the broader Milwaukee County area. Whether you manage a single-family home or a multi-unit property, here is what we handle on a regular basis.
Kitchen grease buildup, bathroom hair clogs, slow shower drains, backed-up floor drains - these are everyday problems that get worse the longer they sit. We clear clogs using drain snake service for standard blockages and hydro jetting for stubborn or recurring buildup deep in the line. Emergency drain cleaning is available when a backup cannot wait.
A hidden leak can cause significant damage before you ever see a wet spot on the wall. We locate the source, assess the condition of the line, and repair or replace what needs to come out. Code-compliant plumbing on every job means the repair holds up whether you are scheduling routine maintenance or dealing with an urgent break. We handle water line leaks, burst pipe repair, and supply line damage across Oak Creek and the surrounding area.
No hot water is one of the most disruptive plumbing problems a household or business faces. We repair and replace both tank and tankless water heaters, working with gas and electric units. Whether the issue is a failing heating element, a corroded tank, or a unit that simply needs to be replaced with a more efficient model, we assess the situation and give you a clear picture of what makes sense. We'll make your plumbing sound again.
Running toilets waste water and drive up utility bills. Leaky faucets are rarely just cosmetic. We handle toilet repair and replacement, toilet clog removal, leaky faucet repair, kitchen and bathroom faucet installation, shower valve repair, sink installation, and garbage disposal repair and installation. If a fixture needs to come out or go in, we handle it cleanly and correctly.
A main line clog or sewer backup affects every drain in the building at once. We clear main line blockages, repair and replace damaged sewer lines, and run camera inspections to see exactly what is going on inside the pipe. Tree root intrusion is a common problem in Milwaukee County neighborhoods where mature trees grow close to older sewer lines. We remove roots from the line and assess whether a repair or replacement is the right next step. Where trenchless methods apply, we use them.
Older homes in Oak Creek sometimes carry galvanized steel pipe that has corroded from the inside out, reducing water pressure and affecting water quality. We handle whole-house repiping with copper or PEX, shutoff valve replacement, and supply line repair. Experienced plumbers who respect your home handle every repipe job, which means careful work inside walls and under floors with clean results when the job is done.
Wisconsin winters are hard on plumbing. Oak Creek sits in a climate where temperatures drop well below freezing for weeks at a time, spring snowmelt raises the water table under basements, and the freeze-thaw cycle puts real stress on pipes, fittings, and exterior connections. The work in this section comes up every year here, and we are set up to handle it.
When temperatures fall sharply overnight, pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, unheated garages, and attic chases are at risk of freezing. A frozen pipe that bursts can release a significant amount of water in a short time. We respond to burst pipe emergencies and work to locate the damage, shut off the supply, and repair or replace the affected section. Same-day service is often available for burst pipe calls because waiting is not an option when water is running inside a wall.
Most homes in Oak Creek and across Milwaukee County are built on basements. When spring snowmelt and seasonal rain push the water table up, a functioning sump pump is what keeps that water from finding its way inside. We install new sump pumps, replace failed units, and repair existing systems. If a sump pump stops working during a heavy rain event, that is an emergency call we take seriously.
The best time to address freeze risk is before the temperature drops. We insulate exposed pipes in crawl spaces, garages, exterior walls, and other vulnerable areas, and we handle full winterization service for outdoor lines, hose bibs, and irrigation supply connections. Frost-free hose bib installation is a common upgrade that eliminates one of the most frequent freeze points on a Wisconsin home. Schedule this work in the fall before the first hard freeze.
We find the leak. We fix the line. We test the pressure.
Reach out and a plumber will follow up.
If you've never hired a plumber before, the part that trips most people up is not knowing what it will cost before someone shows up. We give you the rate on the phone before anything is scheduled, and we explain what the price covers. No guessing, no waiting until the job is done to find out what you owe.
Same-day appointments are often available, and we answer calls from 5:30 AM to 9:00 PM daily. That window covers early-morning emergencies and after-work calls without stretching into overnight hours. We work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, restaurant operators, and office building managers across Oak Creek and Milwaukee County.
Plumbing here gets handled by people who answer to this community. Plumbing done to the standard the next inspection expects is what we bring to every job, whether it is a single fixture swap or a full commercial service call. We'll take care of the pipes from here.

Every home's plumbing tells a different story, and the same is true for commercial properties. Restaurant operators dealing with grease-clogged kitchen drains, apartment owners managing multiple units, and office building managers facing water heater failures all have different needs, and we handle them. We provide commercial drain cleaning, commercial water heater repair and replacement, leak detection, sewer line service, and fixture installation for businesses across Oak Creek and Milwaukee County. Call for a commercial plumbing quote at (414) 414-2993.

Yes, we work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial operators across Oak Creek and Milwaukee County. The core work is the same whether the property is a single-family home, a multi-unit rental building, or a small commercial space. We adjust to the scale and scheduling needs of each job type.
A standard visit can cover drain cleaning and clog removal, leak detection and pipe repair, toilet and faucet work, water heater diagnosis, sewer line service, garbage disposal repair, shutoff valve replacement, and water pressure diagnostics. We come prepared to assess and handle the work in a single visit where the job allows. If the scope is larger, such as a repipe or sewer line replacement, we walk you through what the project involves before scheduling the work.
The price depends on the type of work, the condition of the existing plumbing, and the time involved. When you call, we give you the rate on the phone before anything is scheduled, and we explain what that price covers. You have the full picture before you decide to move forward.
A job can run longer or require more material if the existing plumbing is older, corroded, or harder to access than expected. Galvanized pipe that crumbles when cut, shutoff valves that will not close, or a clog that sits deep in the main line rather than at the fixture can all affect the scope. We explain what we find as we go and confirm any changes before continuing.
Payment is due when the work is complete. We confirm the price before we schedule, so you know what to expect before the plumber arrives. If anything changes during the job, we discuss it with you before proceeding.
It helps to clear access to the affected fixtures, the water heater, the main shutoff valve, and any crawl space or basement access points that may be relevant. If you know where the main shutoff is and can point us to it quickly, that saves time on urgent calls. Beyond that, there is nothing complicated to prepare.
Someone should be on site to let the plumber in and to answer questions about the work. For rental properties, a tenant can be present in place of the owner, as long as they can provide access and reach you if a decision needs to be made. If you manage multiple units and need to coordinate access, let us know when you call.
For non-emergency work, same-day and next-day appointments are often available. Urgent situations like burst pipes, major leaks, or a complete loss of hot water are handled as priority calls within our daily hours of 5:30 AM to 9:00 PM. Call us at (414) 414-2993 and we will find the earliest available time that works.
MCM Plumbing & Drain Cleaning is available from 5:30 AM to 9:00 PM daily, and same-day service is often available for calls that cannot wait. Don't let a small leak turn into a flooded floor - the sooner a plumber looks at it, the simpler the fix usually is.

| Service Type | What the Job Covers | Typical Situations | Helpful to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sump Pump Installation | new sump pit and pump installation, replacement of failed units, discharge line routing, assessment for homes without existing systems | Basements at risk during spring snowmelt or homes without an existing sump system | The water table in parts of Oak Creek rises significantly in spring. A working sump pump is real insurance. |
| Frozen & Burst Pipe Repair | locating the frozen or burst section, supply shutoff and flow stop, pipe repair or replacement, assessment of why the pipe froze | Homes with pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, or unheated garages during Milwaukee County winters | We look at the cause after the repair so the same pipe does not freeze again next season. |
| Emergency Plumbing | burst pipe response, major active leaks, complete loss of hot water, main shutoff and supply isolation | Any situation where water is actively damaging the home or service cannot wait | We are open every day from 5:30 AM to 9:00 PM. Same-day service is often available for urgent calls. |
| Water Heater Repair & ReplacementMost Popular | tank and tankless units, diagnosis of heating and pressure issues, full unit replacement, sizing and option walkthrough | Households with no hot water, rusty water, or a unit past its useful life | Replacement is often the more practical call once a tank is showing multiple symptoms. |
| Water Pressure & Shutoff Valve Repair | pressure regulator diagnosis and replacement, shutoff valve repair and replacement, whole-house pressure check, fixture-level valve service | Homes with pressure that has dropped, spiked, or varies room to room | Galvanized pipe that has corroded from the inside is a common cause of pressure loss in older Oak Creek homes. |
| Faucet & Fixture Installation | faucet repair and replacement, shower and tub valve service, sink and fixture installation, remodel rough-in and finish work | Renovation projects or fixtures that drip, leak, or will not hold temperature | Proper connection at installation prevents slow leaks that show up weeks later behind the wall. |
| Toilet Repair & Installation | running and leaking toilets, flush valve and fill valve replacement, full toilet replacement, new installation for remodels | Homeowners dealing with a running toilet, a leak at the base, or a full replacement | A running toilet can waste a significant amount of water before it becomes obvious on the bill. |
| Drain Cleaning & Clog Removal | sink, tub, and shower drains, floor drains and laundry lines, main line clearing, hydro jetting for stubborn blockages | Homeowners or tenants with slow or fully blocked drains | Multiple slow drains at once usually point to the main line, not individual fixtures. |
| Pipe Insulation & Winterization | insulating exposed supply lines, frost-free hose bib installation, outdoor line shutdown and drain, crawl space and rim joist pipe protection | Homeowners preparing for winter or following a prior freeze event | Scheduling in fall, before temperatures drop consistently, takes far less time than repairing a burst pipe in February. |
| Leak Detection & Repair | supply line and joint leaks, fixture connection leaks, hidden leak tracing, pipe repair after locating the source | Anyone seeing water damage, high bills, or moisture with no obvious source | Finding the source before cutting into walls saves time and material on the repair. |
| Garbage Disposal Service | disposal repair and reset, full unit replacement, electrical and drain connection check, installation for new or remodeled kitchens | Kitchens with a disposal that hums, jams, or leaks at the sink flange | A humming disposal that will not spin usually has a jammed plate, which is often a quick fix. |
| Sewer & Main Line Service | main line clearing and cleaning, root intrusion removal, camera inspection of the line, repair or replacement of the line to the city tap | Homes with backups affecting multiple fixtures or suspected line damage | We work the line from the cleanout to the city connection. We do not service septic tanks or drain fields. |
