Business Background

Kimmen Plumbing & Heating, Inc. is a family-owned and operated cornerstone of the Altoona community, founded by Charles W. Kimmen in 1976. Officially incorporated in 1990, the business has grown from a home-based operation into a robust service provider operating from multiple buildings on South Dartmouth Lane, where it has been proudly serving Blair County for over four decades. Now led by Owner & President Charles W. Kimmen III (Charlie), who took over in 2011, the company is built on a foundation of deep expertise—both Charlie and his father, Chuck, are registered Master Plumbers with multiple heating certifications. We handle everything from routine plumbing repairs and HVAC maintenance to full system installations and excavation work, employing our own skilled machine operators and well-maintained equipment. As a local, family-run business, we are committed to providing reliable, expert service for both residential and commercial clients, backed by fully insured, 24-hour emergency support.

Frequently Asked Questions

As a long-time family business, what kind of experience can Altoona residents expect with Kimmen Plumbing & Heating?

You can expect service rooted in deep local knowledge and hands-on family expertise. Founded in 1976 by Chuck Kimmen and now led by his son, Charlie, both are registered Master Plumbers. This means your project, from a simple faucet repair to a major HVAC installation, is handled by licensed professionals who have been solving Altoona's home service needs for over 40 years. We're not just a service provider; we're your neighbors who have built our business on trust and quality workmanship.

My furnace won't ignite on a cold Altoona night. Can you help, and are you available for emergencies?

Absolutely. Furnace ignition failures are a common issue during our Pennsylvania winters, and we're equipped to diagnose and repair them promptly. Our technicians are certified to handle all major HVAC brands and ignition systems. More importantly, we offer 24-hour emergency service because we know heating problems can't wait. As a family-operated business right here in Altoona, we understand the urgency of getting your heat restored quickly and safely.

I need a new water heater and some excavation work for a line replacement. Do you handle both?

Yes, we are uniquely equipped to manage both aspects of your project. Unlike many plumbing companies, we have our own excavation division with skilled machine operators and maintained equipment. This means we can efficiently handle the trench digging for your new water line and then seamlessly install your new water heater, all under one roof. This integrated approach, managed by our family-run team, often saves our Altoona customers time, coordination hassle, and cost.
