Plumber in Pelham, AL

Pelham is a Shelby County city straddling U.S. 31 south of Hoover, known for Oak Mountain State Park, the Pelham Civic Complex, and steady residential growth along the Highway 31 and Shelby County 52 corridors. The city's housing stock spans three distinct eras: older homes near downtown Pelham and along Valley Road that date to the 1950s–1970s, a large wave of 1990s–2000s construction in subdivisions like Ballantrae and Shelby Crossing, and active new construction in the southern reaches near Chelsea. That range means we see everything from aging galvanized supply lines in older Pelham homes to builder-grade water heaters hitting end of life in 1990s subdivisions to new construction rough-in work in the city's growing southern corridor. Pelham is served by the Shelby County Water Authority, and the area's karst limestone geology — common in Shelby County — can affect how buried lines settle and shift over time.

Pelham plumbing expertise across every era of construction

Pelham's mix of older homes, 1990s subdivisions, and new construction means a plumber serving this area needs experience across all three types. Max Lovelady has that range — 40+ years in the trade means he's worked on every era of construction common in Pelham and knows what each requires.

We're familiar with the Shelby County Water Authority's service requirements and the City of Pelham's permit process. All work is done to code, permits are pulled when required, and inspections are scheduled so your project closes out cleanly.

From our Leeds base, we reach Pelham in approximately 40–45 minutes via I-459 South. We're available 24 hours for Pelham emergency calls. Oak Mountain State Park may be Pelham's most famous landmark, but Lovelady Plumbing is working to become its most trusted plumber.

Every service, available in Pelham, AL

Pelham's three-era housing stock means we tailor our approach to the specific age and construction type of each home. In older Valley Road and downtown Pelham homes, we replace aging galvanized supply lines and reline or replace cast-iron drain stacks. In 1990s–2000s subdivisions like Ballantrae and Shelby Crossing, water heater replacements and tankless upgrades are the most common calls — builder-grade units installed 15–20 years ago are failing in large numbers. In Pelham's newer southern developments, we handle new construction rough-in and finish plumbing for builders and homeowners. We also service gas lines for Pelham homeowners on the Spire Energy natural gas network, which serves much of Shelby County.
