Emergency plumbing across Perry Township
Perry Township has about 12,577 housing units according to the 2022 American Community Survey, and roughly 78 percent are owner-occupied. The median owner-occupied home is valued around 152,000 dollars, which means most owners are keeping up older houses rather than buying new ones. A failed water heater or a backed-up main is a big deal on that kind of budget.
We cover the whole township, including the West Manor Allotment, Perry Hills Colony, Crescent Gardens, the Oakhill Subdivision, Whipple Heights and Pine Hills. Call, give us a cross street, and we book the next appointment.
24/7 dispatch
Calls are answered around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays.
Close to Massillon
We are based in Massillon on Lincoln Way East, a short drive from most of the township.
Drain and sewer work
Backups from a main line clog or a stressed lateral are a frequent call here.
Water heaters and leaks
Tank failures and burst lines in older homes are the other common calls.
Where we work in the township
Perry Drive, Navarre Road, Whipple Avenue, Genoa Avenue, Fohl Road and Southway Street carry most of the traffic, and the parks at Perry Park, Meredith, Oakhill, Summerdale and Lynch give you landmarks if your house number is hard to find. The Lincoln Way corridor accounts for about half of the township's business land use, so shops and restaurants there are part of our regular work, too.
Water, sewer and septic: know which one you have
Perry Township is served by two water suppliers. The City of Canton and Aqua Ohio each serve part of it, and the name on your water bill tells you which one is yours. Sewer service comes from the Stark County Metropolitan Sewer District, and most of the flow ends up at Massillon's treatment plant.
Not every home is on a sewer. The township's plan counts about 1,475 septic systems and 15 county lift stations. A backup in a septic home points to the tank or the drain field, and a backup in a sewered home points to the lateral or the main. We find out which before we quote the work.

Flood-prone ground and basement trouble
The Tuscarawas River is the township's main waterway. The 2025 plan shows wetlands and 100-year floodplain in the northwest, and stormwater runoff problems in the northeast and north-central areas. If your basement takes on water after a hard rain, a working sump pump with a battery backup is the first thing to check.
A floor drain that backs up during a storm is a different problem. It may be the line, or it may be the shared system. Our sewer line cleaning visit tells you which.
| Common Perry Township call | Usual cause | Where to read more |

| Sewage in a floor drain | Main line clog or damaged lateral | Sewer line repair |
