For over 120 years, AJ Parker Plumbing & Heating has been the name Lake County residents call when they need help. OD Parker started this business in 1905 with a simple philosophy: do good work, charge fair prices, and treat people right. Six generations later, we’re still following that same approach. We know Wickliffe homes—from the properties near Coulby Park to the established neighborhoods throughout the city—and we understand what it takes to keep your plumbing and heating systems running reliably year-round.
Heating Services
When winter temperatures drop, your heating system becomes essential. We install, repair, and maintain all types of heating equipment, specializing in furnaces and boilers from every major manufacturer. Scheduling maintenance in early fall means your system gets checked before you actually need it running every day, which helps prevent those late-night emergency calls when it’s 15 degrees outside. When emergencies do happen, our 24/7 service means you’re never waiting long for help.
Cooling Services
Lake County summers bring heat and humidity that can overwhelm older AC systems or undersized units. We install central air conditioning systems sized correctly for your home, repair existing equipment when it breaks down, and provide maintenance to keep everything running efficiently. For homes without ductwork or rooms that need independent temperature control, ductless mini-split systems offer flexible cooling solutions that don’t require major renovations.
Plumbing Services
Plumbing problems range from minor inconveniences to serious emergencies, and we handle them all. Our 24/7 emergency service means you can reach us immediately when you’re dealing with burst pipes, sewer backups, or complete water heater failures. We install traditional tank water heaters and tankless systems, repair leaks of all sizes, and use modern detection equipment to find hidden water problems before they cause extensive damage.
Backflow Testing & Prevention
Contaminated water flowing backward into your clean water supply is a serious health hazard. Backflow prevention devices stop this from happening, and many Wickliffe properties with sprinkler systems or certain plumbing configurations need them by law. We install these devices, provide the annual testing local authorities require, and handle all the paperwork to keep you compliant and your drinking water protected.
Boiler Services
Wickliffe has many homes with boiler heating systems, and these need technicians who actually understand how they work. We’ve serviced everything from century-old cast iron radiator systems to modern high-efficiency boilers. Whether you need annual maintenance, repairs to get through another winter, or it’s time to discuss replacement options, we’ll give you straight answers about what your system needs and what it’ll cost.
