Finding a plumber or water treatment specialist who values honesty over a quick sale can be difficult. At Dierolf Plumbing & Water Treatment, we operate differently. We believe in transparency and education. Since 2009, we have served Blandon and the greater Maidencreek Township area with a commitment to doing the job right the first time. Our owner, Mark Dierolf, brings over 25 years of personal industry experience to every project. This background ensures that whether you have a leaking pipe or a complex water chemistry issue, we have seen it before and know how to fix it.
Blandon is a unique community that perfectly balances modern convenience with rural charm. You might live in the established neighborhoods near Maidencreek Community Park or in the newer developments that have sprung up along the Route 73 corridor. We understand the specific plumbing and water challenges found in homes throughout the 19510 zip code. From the busy intersections near Route 222 to the quieter streets bordering Ruscombmanor Township, we know the local infrastructure.
We are proud to support the local economy and encourage our clients to do the same. After a service call, you might find our team grabbing a bite at Cristina’s Bar and Restaurant on Hoch Road or handling errands near the Wesner Road commercial district. We also appreciate the green spaces provided by the township, which make this area a great place to live.
Water Hardness in Blandon Public Water
Many residents in Blandon rely on the Maidencreek Township Water Authority for their supply. While this water meets federal safety standards, it often comes with high levels of hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium. You might notice white scale buildup on your shower doors, stiff laundry, or premature failure of water heaters and dishwashers. This is not a health hazard, but it is a costly nuisance for your home appliances.
We install high-efficiency water softeners that physically remove these minerals. Unlike salt-free conditioners that only mask the problem, our systems provide genuine soft water that protects your plumbing investment. We can test your water hardness right at your kitchen sink to determine exactly what grain capacity your home requires.
Private Well Challenges
If your home is located on the outskirts of town or in one of the older farm properties, you likely rely on a private well. Well water in this part of Berks County is prone to specific issues. We frequently see elevated levels of iron which causes orange staining in toilets and sinks. Additionally, agricultural runoff can lead to nitrate issues, which are invisible and odorless but dangerous for infants and pregnant women.
We recommend a comprehensive water test for all well owners. This is the only way to know for sure what is in your water. We do not guess. Once we have the data, we design a treatment plan that might include iron filters, UV sterilization for bacteria, or reverse osmosis systems for drinking water. Our goal is to ensure your well water is safe and pleasant to use.
The Importance of Professional Plumbing
Beyond water quality, the infrastructure of your home requires regular attention. Blandon has a mix of housing ages. Older homes may still have galvanized piping that restricts flow, while newer homes often face issues with builder-grade water heaters failing prematurely. We handle everything from water heater replacement to emergency leak repairs. We focus on long-term solutions rather than temporary patches.
Our team is well-versed in the local plumbing codes and requirements for Maidencreek Township. This ensures that any installation or repair we perform is compliant and safe. We respect your home and your time. You will never get a high-pressure sales pitch from us. We simply diagnose the problem, explain your options, and let you decide how to proceed.

Comprehensive Water Solutions for Blandon Residents
Our approach to service is simple. We start with facts. Before we recommend a single product, we perform a thorough analysis of your water or plumbing system. We do not believe in one-size-fits-all solutions because water chemistry varies from house to house. Our technicians are trained to listen to your concerns and investigate the root cause of the issue.
We are a family-owned business that has grown through word-of-mouth recommendations. We know that trust is earned. That is why we offer upfront pricing and clear communication. You will know exactly what the job entails before we begin work. Whether you need a simple filter change or a complete well pump replacement, you receive the same level of care and attention to detail.
Common Questions from Blandon Homeowners
Is the public water in Blandon hard?
Yes, the municipal water in Blandon is generally considered hard. While it is safe to drink, the mineral content can cause scale buildup on fixtures and shorten the lifespan of water-using appliances. A water softener is often recommended to protect your home.
How often should I test my well water?
If you are on a private well, we recommend testing for bacteria (coliform and E. coli) at least once a year. We also suggest testing for nitrates and other contaminants every few years or if you notice a change in taste, odor, or appearance.
Do you offer emergency plumbing services?
We understand that plumbing emergencies do not always happen during business hours. We prioritize urgent issues like well pump failures or major leaks to get your water running again as quickly as possible.
