Expert Plumbing Repair in New Orleans, LA

Plumbing repair in New Orleans comes with challenges you won't find in most other cities. Older homes across the area commonly run aging cast iron drain lines that rust, corrode, and back up over time. High humidity accelerates pipe corrosion inside walls, and the city's soft, shifting soil puts constant stress on underground lines and fixture connections. Heavy rainfall can push sewer backups into toilets, tubs, and floor drains. At Kern Construction LLC, we diagnose the actual source of the problem before we touch a single pipe. We repair leaky faucets, slow or blocked drains, running toilets, low water pressure, corroded supply lines, and sewer backups. We also address hidden leaks caused by foundation settling, which is common in New Orleans properties. Every repair is done with the building type and local conditions in mind. If you notice wet spots, foul odors, or dropping water pressure, call us before a small issue turns into structural damage.

What words can I say about JKern? Excellent and Amazing!! I met Jon in August 2025, He walked in and organized what was in my head concerning renovating my home. My thoughts turned into real plans because Jon is the best manager ever! The team he selected worked out perfect. Painting, flooring, bathroom competely gutted and renovated, electrical work, plumbing and the whole nine yards. I highly recommend all of these guys under Jon’s management.
