Residential Plumber in Mount Juliet, TN
★★★★★ 5.0 on Google · Owner-operated by Will Pontius
Southern Sun Plumbing is a residential plumber based in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. We don't chase commercial contracts or new-construction bids. Our whole day is spent inside Mount Juliet homes — under kitchen sinks, in garage water heater closets, and behind bathroom toilets — fixing the plumbing families use every day.
Owner Will Pontius holds Tennessee Master Plumber License #651 and runs the business himself. When you call a residential plumber in Mount Juliet and reach Southern Sun, you're talking to the person responsible for the work, not a dispatcher reading from a script.

Why Mount Juliet homeowners choose a residential-only plumber
Home plumbing is its own trade. A commercial plumber is used to big mechanical rooms and large-diameter pipe; a residential plumber in Mount Juliet is used to tight vanity cabinets, finished drywall, hardwood floors, and families who need the water back on before dinner. That focus changes how we work: drop cloths down, shutoffs located before anything gets cut, and a clear explanation of the problem before the repair starts.
Because Mount Juliet is our home base, it's also usually the shortest drive on our schedule. That makes it easier to fit in smaller jobs — a dripping hose bib, a toilet that keeps running, a water heater relief valve that's weeping — that bigger companies sometimes push to the bottom of the list.
Plumbing in Mount Juliet's fast-growing neighborhoods
Mount Juliet has added thousands of homes in the past twenty years, from subdivisions near Providence and Golden Bear Gateway to established streets off Lebanon Road and Old Lebanon Dirt Road. Many of those houses were built quickly with builder-grade fixtures. Ten or fifteen years later, the original water heaters, fill valves, faucet cartridges, and plastic shutoff valves start wearing out at roughly the same time.
As a Mount Juliet residential plumber, we see that pattern constantly. A homeowner calls about one leaky faucet, and we notice the angle stops under the sink are corroded and the water heater is nearing the end of its life. We'll point those things out honestly and let you decide what to tackle now and what can wait.

Residential plumbing services we handle in Mount Juliet
Our core work is residential plumbing repair: leaking supply lines, stuck shutoff valves, noisy pipes, and worn fittings. We install and replace tank water heaters, set new toilets and replace wax rings, swap indoor kitchen and bathroom faucets, replace outdoor hose bibs, clear small drain clogs in sinks and tubs, and track down and repair leaks.
If your problem isn't on that list, call or text anyway. We'll tell you straight whether it's something we handle.

- Shutoff valves under sinks that won't turn or drip when you turn them
- Slow drains in bathroom sinks or tubs that take more than a few seconds to empty
- Outdoor faucets that drip or leak inside the wall after winter
