Frequently Asked Questions
Did you used to be called TK Plumbing?
We sure did! After just over two years as TK Plumbing, we rebranded to The Gentleman Plumber to better reflect our commitment to service, professionalism, and old-fashioned courtesy. Same ownership, same great team—just a sharper look.

We proudly serve Shawnee, Raytown, and the greater Kansas City Metro area — both Kansas and Missouri sides.

Do you service both residential and commercial properties?
We do! Whether you’re a homeowner or a business owner, we’ve got the experience to handle your plumbing needs.
What kind of plumbing work do you specialize in?
From drain cleaning and water heaters to sewer excavation and high-pressure jetting — we handle it all.
Do you offer free estimates?

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does drain cleaning cost in Kansas City?
Cost depends on the clog's location and severity, but most standard drain cleaning calls are more affordable than homeowners assume. We diagnose the issue first and give you a clear, upfront price before any work starts. Call us and we'll get you a straight answer fast.
Do I need a permit to replace my water heater?
In most Kansas City metro cities, yes — water heater replacements typically require a permit and inspection. We pull the permit and coordinate the inspection as part of the job, so you don't have to manage it yourself. Just let us know you're ready to move forward.
Do you serve Overland Park and Olathe?
Yes, both are within our greater Kansas City Metro service area on the Kansas side. If you're not sure whether your specific neighborhood is covered, just give us a call and we'll confirm right away.
How long does a water heater installation take?
Most standard water heater installations are completed in half a day, while tankless conversions can take a bit longer due to the extra venting and gas line work involved. We'll let you know the expected timeline when we quote the job. Request a call and we can often get you scheduled quickly.
How often should I have my sump pump serviced?
We recommend testing your sump pump at least once a year, ideally before spring rains hit, to make sure it kicks on when you need it most. A failed sump pump during a storm can mean a flooded basement fast. We can inspect yours and make sure it's ready.
We Make Clients Happy 😁
Pierce and Grant have been out twice, and I’m looking to have them back. I bought an old, run-down, little project, and appreciate the help in doing some stuff right. They jetted my main, after checking into the condition. Next, hose bibs and some pipe replacement. See ya soon guys.
Peirce did a great job installing my new outside hose faucet. It went quick and he was a pleasure to work with. The Gentleman Plumber will have my business again if need be.
Chris and Anthony are an awesome team! Had them out for a sewer line scope that a few other vendors said could not be done. That extra effort from them helped my client get a full scope and understanding of the health of their line. They are technical and knowledgeable. One of my other clients only uses them and I see why! Will definitely use again.
TK/ The Gentleman Plumber was able to get to my property on the day I called. Grant was very helpful in addressing the leak I had. I will use this company in the future do to their quality work and reasonable pricing.
This company is amazing!! Great price and Great work! Grant was super! Knowledgeable and friendly and kept us informed every step of fixing the issue. Top notch company, great job Grant!!!
The Gentleman Plumber was very quick to respond to my message for emergency needed services, and just as quick to schedule and send someone out. Grant was amazing, thorough, and was able to resolve our issue while also educating us on the futuristic problems that our leasing office will be made aware of. We have functional plumbing for now, which is more than I can say for the previous 24 hours!
The technicians (Nate & Pierce) arrived on time, quoted me a price that was very reasonable and explained all repairs in detail. Very neat and organized! I highly recommend this company for any future repairs.
Trent and his crew did a great job when they replaced the sewer line in our basement. At the beginning it took a few attempts to schedule his company to come and look at the job site. After we agreed to hire this company, they did the work and completed it on time within the estimated cost they provided. Highly recommended!
Grant and Pierce both were very thorough and explained the issues and work needing to be done. Once they completed the work they showed us what they did and made sure we were content. 10/10 would recommend and we would call them back for any future plumbing work!
I called them and they had someone out the very next day. They were all very friendly and my tech Pierce did a great job fast and quality work. I will only use these guys for our company in the future.
Grant was great, very professional, knowledgeable, courteous and cleaned up after the project. Our refrigerator water line was leaking and needed a new valve. Grant had it fixed within an hour of showing up. The price was right and highly recommended for any plumbing needs.
Great customer service from initial call, to free estimate, through job completion. Technician Grant was knowledgeable, courteous and efficient. Handled a sneaky shower valve with minimal access to perfection. I highly recommend The Gentleman Plumber.
