Plumber in Ogden, Utah
Six generations of local plumbing expertise — headquartered right here in Ogden since 1915.
Mike Bachman Plumbing has been fixing Ogden’s pipes longer than most of the buildings standing in town. Kasper Bachman founded the company in 1915, and the family has been serving Weber County ever since — through the railroad boom, the postwar subdivisions, and every freeze-thaw cycle the Wasatch Range has thrown at us. Our shop is at 549 W 24th St, which means when you call, we’re already close.
Ogden’s housing stock tells a story. The Jefferson Avenue and Bench neighborhoods are full of homes built between the 1890s and 1940s — beautiful craftsmans and bungalows with plumbing that’s lived a long life. Hard water from Wasatch snowmelt accelerates mineral buildup in pipes, water heaters, and fixtures. Combine that with a few generations of original galvanized steel lines and you get a predictable set of problems: slow drains, discolored water, failing water heaters, and slab leaks that go unnoticed until the damage is done. We’ve seen all of it, and we know how to fix it right.
Mike Bachman Plumbing is one of the oldest continuously operating plumbing companies in Utah. Six generations of the Bachman family have built a reputation in this community that we’re not willing to risk on a single job. When you call us, that history matters.

My Ogden home was built in the 1940s. Should I be worried about my plumbing?
Homes from that era often have galvanized steel supply lines, which corrode from the inside out over time. Signs include low water pressure, discolored water, or recurring leaks. We can run a camera inspection and give you an honest assessment of what needs attention and what can wait.
Is Ogden water really that hard?
Yes. Weber County municipal water typically tests in the 15–20 grains per gallon range, which is considered very hard. Hard water causes scale buildup in pipes, shortens water heater life, and damages fixtures. A whole-home water softener is one of the most cost-effective investments you can make for your plumbing system.
Do you install water softeners in Ogden?
We do. We install and service WaterTech systems and can recommend the right size and configuration for your home’s water usage and hardness level.
