Ricky Heath Plumbing, Heating & Cooling is a full-service plumbing and HVAC company located on Hillcrest Industrial Boulevard in Macon, Georgia. Ricky Heath founded the company in 1988 with the goal of serving the Middle Georgia community with quality commercial and residential plumbing, and over more than thirty-five years it has grown into one of the most well-known plumbing companies in the area. The firm has been named the best plumber in Macon year after year in the Macon Telegraph’s Best of the Best contest, and it has expanded its services to include heating and cooling alongside its plumbing roots.
The company handles the complete range of home plumbing needs, from drain cleaning and camera inspection to sewer line repair and replacement, water leak detection, gas line work, water heater repair and installation, whole-home repiping, water filtration, and fixture replacement. Its technicians are familiar with the specific conditions Macon homes present, including the clay-heavy soil of Central Georgia that shifts after heavy rain and stresses underground lines, the aging galvanized steel and polybutylene piping found in many older homes, and the hard water that builds up in water heaters and fixtures over time. In historic neighborhoods such as Ingleside and Vineville, the team often addresses sewer blockages caused by tree roots growing into aging clay or cast-iron pipes.
On the HVAC side, the company’s licensed and NATE-certified technicians repair, install, and maintain the full range of residential systems, including air conditioning, heating, heat pumps, and ductless mini-splits, along with seasonal maintenance and tune-ups. The team services all major brands and carries systems sized for Middle Georgia’s long cooling season, walking customers through their options clearly before any work begins.
Ricky Heath takes plumbing, heating, and cooling problems seriously and prides itself on quick response times, especially in emergencies, all backed by upfront and honest pricing. The company describes its entire reason for doing business as making sure friends and neighbors in central Georgia do not have to put up with inefficient plumbing. For homeowners and businesses across Macon and Bibb County, the firm offers a long-established, locally rooted option for both plumbing and home comfort.
