Salem carries one of the most diverse housing inventories in the Willamette Valley. The Court-Chemeketa Historic District east of the Oregon State Capitol and the Gaiety Hill-Bush Park Historic District together contain more than 100 documented homes built between the 1850s and 1930s. Victorian Stick, Craftsman, Queen Anne, and Foursquare styles from that era often retain original or early-generation supply lines and cast-iron drain stacks. Restoration work in those neighborhoods routinely calls for specialty parts and careful coordination with Marion County’s historic-review process for any exterior penetrations.
Beyond the historic core, Salem’s mid-century ranch belt and the newer suburban edges along the Willamette River corridor present their own plumbing demands, from aging galvanized supply in 1950s and 1960s homes to the larger-volume drain work that comes with contemporary construction. Lovett Plumbing handles the full spectrum. Permits for in-city work go through the City of Salem Permit Application Center via the PAC Portal, and we manage that process for qualifying projects. For jobs in unincorporated Marion County parcels on the edges of town, we coordinate through Oregon ePermitting.
As a leading plumbing company in Salem, Lovett Plumbing handles everything from precision leak detection to advanced trenchless pipe repair. Our technicians bring commercial-grade tools to your home and resolve issues efficiently to protect your property from costly water damage.
Older cast-iron drain stacks in Salem's historic neighborhoods accumulate scale and debris over decades. Our professional drain cleaning and high-pressure hydro jetting services clear those lines completely. We use video sewer inspection cameras first to locate blockages accurately, then apply pressurized water to scour the pipe interior, restoring flow without the pipe damage that chemical cleaners can cause on aging cast iron.
High-resolution video sewer inspection lets our technicians see exactly what is happening inside your underground lines before any excavation takes place. Once we identify the problem, we provide sewer line repair options suited to your property. For Salem homes that need significant underground work, trenchless pipe repair rehabilitates or replaces damaged lines with minimal disruption to your yard, garden, or driveway.
Shared sewer connections in older Salem neighborhoods require precise diagnosis and careful management. We specialize in identifying, repairing, and separating party sewer lines so your property operates on its own independent connection and meets current City of Salem standards.
From routine maintenance on a tank unit to a full tankless water heater installation, our technicians ensure Salem homes have reliable hot water year-round. If your heater is producing inconsistent temperatures, showing rust, or leaking around the base, we assess the system and recommend the most efficient repair or replacement based on your household's daily demand.
Hidden leaks behind plaster walls or beneath the floors of a Gaiety Hill Craftsman can cause serious structural damage long before any visible sign appears. We use precision leak detection tools to pinpoint moisture intrusion accurately. When localized repairs are not enough, our whole-house repiping services replace original galvanized or lead-solder supply lines with durable modern materials, eliminating the source of the problem.
Properties near Minto-Brown Island Park and along the Willamette River corridor can experience elevated groundwater during the wet season. A properly sized and maintained sump pump system keeps that moisture away from your foundation. We install, repair, and service sump pumps to protect Salem basements and crawlspaces through heavy Oregon winters.
We handle the daily fixtures your household depends on. Fixture repair and installation covers sinks, toilets, showers, and faucets throughout your home. We also provide garbage disposal maintenance to prevent kitchen drain jams and keep that part of your plumbing running cleanly before a minor issue becomes a messy backup.We handle the daily fixtures your household depends on.

Dan from Gladstone was prompt, courteous, and thorough in diagnosing our plumbing issues and finding a good solution. He was experienced and knowledgeable and offered good advice for maintaining our bath/shower plumbing going forward.

Brandon was a lifesaver. In just two hours, he figured out what our rental maintenance team and another contractor couldn’t. He found the leak was coming from upstairs. He didn’t stop there either. He cleaned up the mess left behind, helped reduce the active leaking, and made sure everything was handled as well as possible on our end.

Right before Christmas, we discovered a leaking water main when our water bill was more than 3x the same period last year. On short notice, Lovett was able to get Doug out to make an initial assessment, then Brian got me an estimate without delay. Foreman Steven showed up Monday morning and was able to head off potential delays by thinking creatively. He set things up nicely so that we had water running again by late Tuesday morning!

Lovett was dispatched to fix a leaky bathtub faucet in our rental home, and the service I received was top notch! Jill reached out to me quickly and was able to schedule us for the next day. Our plumber Cameron was friendly, gave us heads-up when he would be here so I could secure our furry friends, and was able to resolve the issue no problem! I definitely would recommend Lovett for your plumbing needs.

I had a kitchen sink issue. Lovett came out, and Greg was my tech. Very smart and informative. He was efficient and clean. He answered questions. And my sink was cleared up in an hour. I was so thankful for the service and reasonable price. I will use them again for any bigger projects that might come my way. I recommend this Company fully.

I hadn’t lived in my new place for ten days when a pipe broke. Dan came first thing the next morning, cut a 5×10 hole in the wall and capped off the pipe – problem solved! He also took the time to turn down the heat on my hot water heater, and explain the plumbing system to me. I wish I could give him another star.
Portland, OR
I had a major issue with my well system and was completely without water. After calling many companies who all said they couldn’t help, I reached Ken Williams at Lovett. Ken was immediately attentive, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. He helped me troubleshoot the problem and quickly got their equipment scheduled and out here to get the repair underway. His professionalism and genuine care made all the difference.

Tyler came out today to inspect/replace my garbage disposal and it was such a great experience! He made the interaction very personable. He also explained different things about the process along the way and I really appreciated that along with how clean he was. He wore shoe covers and completely cleaned up the underneath of my sink as well as the yuckies in the bottom of my sink. Overall, I highly recommend!!
