Winterization Services

A lake home or cabin is a place for making memories, spending time enjoying family and friends. But a pipe that burst over the winter leaving your cabin with no water pressure is not the kind of memory you want to make. No worries, though!

You can rest well with Koegel’s winterization services!

Let us take care of your lake home or cabin before and after winter. Our team will close your cabin every winter and open the cabin in the spring or summer. Contact us today.

Koegel Plumbing and Heating did an excellent job repairing and installing our toilet, sink and shower. They were very knowledgeable and friendly, easy to work with, and knew exactly what problems we had with our existing toilet, sink and shower. All repairs are working like new and look great. Cost was reasonable compared with other companies. Great job cleaning up after their work was completed. We would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a plumber.
