Every plumbing problem has a cause, and finding it before anything is replaced is how a visit should go. Below is the work we handle for homes, rentals, and commercial properties throughout the area.
Making plumbing simple is most of what the job is, and a clogged drain is one of the most common calls we get. Slow kitchen drains, backed-up bathroom sinks, gurgling floor drains, and main line clogs all point to buildup or blockage somewhere in the line. We use drain snaking for most household clogs and hydro jetting for heavier grease or debris buildup in main lines and commercial kitchens. A visit covers the diagnosis, the clearing, and a check to confirm the line is flowing before we leave.
Leaks behind walls, under concrete slabs, and along underground supply lines can go unnoticed until the water bill climbs or a stain appears. We use electronic leak detection to locate the source without tearing up the property unnecessarily. Slab leak detection is a regular part of the work we do in this area, given how many homes in and around Schertz are built on concrete foundations. Once the source is found, we repair the line and pressure-test the system before the job is called done.
No hot water is one of the calls that cannot wait. We work on both tank and tankless water heaters: diagnosing the problem, repairing what can be repaired, and replacing what cannot. Common symptoms include water that runs cold quickly, discolored water, strange sounds from the tank, or a unit that simply stops working. We walk through the repair-versus-replacement decision on the call so you know what to expect before anyone shows up.
A running toilet can waste a significant amount of water before it gets noticed. A dripping faucet does the same. We handle toilet repair and replacement, faucet repair and installation, shower and tub work, and general fixture installation for both residential and commercial properties. If you are updating fixtures or replacing something that has failed, we confirm what the job involves on the call and give you the rate before scheduling.
A sewer backup is one of the messier plumbing emergencies, and the cause is not always obvious from the surface. We clear main line blockages, inspect sewer lines to identify damage or intrusion, and repair or replace sections of line that are cracked, collapsed, or root-damaged. Trenchless methods are available where the line and site conditions allow. The visit covers the inspection, the clearing or repair, and confirmation that the line is flowing correctly before we call the job done.
Aging pipe materials eventually reach a point where repairs become more frequent than they are worth. Galvanized steel corrodes from the inside out, reducing pressure and discoloring water. Polybutylene and older copper lines develop pinhole leaks over time. When the pattern of failures points to the pipe itself rather than a single joint or fitting, a whole-home repipe is often the more practical answer. We work with both copper and PEX, and we explain the options and the scope before any work begins.
A disposal that hums but will not spin, a grinding noise, or a unit that has simply stopped responding are all common calls. We repair or replace disposals depending on the age and condition of the unit. Low water pressure can come from a partially closed valve, a failing pressure regulator, or buildup inside the supply lines. Shutoff valves that stick, leak, or fail to close fully are a safety concern and a straightforward fix. We'll handle the pipes so you don't have to.
Schertz and the surrounding parts of Guadalupe County present a specific set of plumbing demands. The soil here runs heavy with clay, which shifts with moisture and puts stress on underground lines. Water hardness varies across the region but runs high enough in many neighborhoods to accelerate scale buildup inside pipes and fixtures. Storm drainage and seasonal rain events mean that water management below grade matters on some properties. The three services below come up regularly in this area for those reasons.
Not every property in this part of Texas has a basement or a crawl space, but where below-grade spaces exist, a working sump pump is the difference between a dry floor and a water damage claim. We install sump pumps in crawl spaces and lower-level areas where groundwater or storm intrusion is a recurring issue. A visit covers the assessment of the space, the pump selection, the installation, and a test to confirm the unit is cycling and discharging correctly.
Mature trees and clay-heavy soil are a difficult combination for sewer lines. Roots follow moisture, and sewer lines are a reliable moisture source. Once roots find a joint or a small crack, they expand it over time until the line backs up or collapses. The symptoms are usually a slow main drain, recurring backups, or gurgling from multiple fixtures at once. We inspect the line, clear the root intrusion, and assess whether the affected section needs repair or replacement. Catching it early avoids a much larger excavation later.
Hard water in Guadalupe County leaves scale deposits on fixtures, inside water heaters, and along supply lines. Over time, that buildup reduces flow, shortens the life of water-using appliances, and shows up as white residue on faucets and showerheads. A properly sized water softener addresses the problem at the source. We install whole-home softener systems, confirm the plumbing connections are correct, and walk through how the system works before leaving. We'll get your water flowing again fast.
For residential and commercial plumbing work alike, the standard is the same: find the problem, confirm the price, and do the work correctly. Commercial properties have additional demands. A restaurant cannot have a backed-up kitchen drain during service hours. A multi-unit building cannot have a water heater outage affecting multiple tenants. An office building with a slab leak needs a fast answer, not a waiting list.
We handle commercial drain cleaning, leak detection and repair, water heater installation, fixture and line work, and backflow prevention service for businesses, property managers, and commercial accounts throughout Schertz. All drain and pipe work is carried out to code, and we schedule around your operating hours where the job allows. Let us handle the plumbing and the permits.
If you've never hired a plumber before, the cost question is usually the first one. We give you a rate on the call, before anything is scheduled and before any commitment is required. That applies to drain cleaning, water heater replacement, leak detection, repiping estimates, and everything in between. You ask what the job costs, and you get a straight answer covering what the price includes.
No pressure and no gimmicks, just sound, lasting plumbing.
Pipes repaired properly. Code-compliant work. Straight answers.
Call (830) 445-3954 to ask what a job costs.
A properly plumbed home is a worry-free home, and getting there starts with a call where the person on the line actually knows the trade. When you call, you reach someone who can scope the job, ask the right questions, and give you a realistic picture of what the work involves. The price is confirmed before anything is scheduled, and the scope is settled before anyone shows up.
Being local means we're easy to reach and easy to work with.
We work every day from 7 AM to 8:30 PM, including weekends. Emergency calls within those hours are answered and prioritized. Every repair is pressure-tested before the job is called done, so you are not left wondering whether the fix held.
We serve Schertz as our primary area and take calls from throughout Guadalupe County and the broader San Antonio metro. Nearby communities we regularly work in include Cibolo, Selma, Universal City, Converse, Marion, Seguin, and New Braunfels. If you are just outside Schertz and are not sure whether we cover your address, call and ask. Most of the time, the answer is yes.
Yes, we work on residential and commercial properties throughout Schertz and Guadalupe County. Homeowners, landlords, property managers, and business owners all call us for the same range of work: drain cleaning, leak detection, water heater service, sewer line work, repiping, and fixture installation. The scope is confirmed on the call regardless of the property type, and the price is explained before anything is scheduled.
Call (830) 445-3954 and describe what is happening.
The person who answers knows the trade and can scope the job on the phone, ask the right questions, and give you a realistic picture of what the work involves. Once the scope is clear, you get a price before anything is put on the schedule.
We serve Schertz as our primary area and take calls from throughout Guadalupe County and the broader San Antonio metro. Communities we regularly work in include Cibolo, Selma, Universal City, Converse, Marion, Garden Ridge, and New Braunfels. If you are not sure whether your address falls within our service area, call and we will confirm.
That depends on the schedule and the urgency of the situation. Emergency calls are answered and prioritized during our hours, which run every day from 7:00 AM to 8:30 PM. When you call, ask what is available and we will tell you what the schedule allows.
The price you get on the call is based on what you describe and what the job most likely involves. If the work turns out to be more involved once we are on site, we tell you before proceeding, not after. You are not committed to anything until the scope and the price are agreed.
The price is based on the work itself, not on the square footage of the property. A water heater replacement costs what it costs because of the unit and the installation, not because the house has three bathrooms instead of two. When you call, we scope the specific job and give you the rate for that work.
Describe what you are seeing: where the problem is, when it started, and whether anything has changed recently, such as a new smell, a change in water pressure, or a stain appearing on a wall or ceiling. The more specific you can be, the better we can scope the job on the call. If you have already tried something, such as plunging a drain or resetting a breaker, mention that too.
Call us at (830) 445-3954 as soon as you know you need to change the time.
We will work with you to find a time that fits. We are available every day from 7:00 AM to 8:30 PM, so there is usually flexibility to reschedule without a long wait.
That depends on the job. Some work requires access to interior spaces, the water heater, or the main shutoff, which typically means someone needs to be present or arrangements need to be made in advance. Mention this when you call and we will work out what access is needed and how to handle it.
Yes, property managers and landlords call us regularly for both single-family rentals and multi-unit buildings throughout Schertz and Guadalupe County. The process is the same: the scope is confirmed on the call, the price is explained before scheduling, and the work is carried out to code. If you manage multiple properties and need plumbing handled consistently, call to discuss what that looks like.
A single repair, such as fixing a leaking faucet or clearing a clogged drain, is scoped and priced on its own merits. Larger jobs like a whole-home repipe or a water heater replacement involve more conversation on the call: what the existing system looks like, what the replacement involves, and what the options are. Both start the same way, with a call and a clear scope before anything is scheduled.
Whether it's a single faucet or a full repipe, we handle it the same way: scope it on the call, confirm the price, and do the work right. We cover drains, leaks, water heaters, sewer lines, repiping, fixture work, and commercial plumbing across Schertz and the surrounding area, every day from 7 AM to 8:30 PM.
We find the leak. We fix the line. We test the pressure.

From a dripping faucet to a sewer line backup, we handle the full range of residential and commercial plumbing repair and installation throughout Schertz and Guadalupe County. Every job starts the same way: a call, a scope, and a price before anything is scheduled. The table below covers what each service includes, who it fits, and what is worth knowing before you call.
| Service | What It Covers | Recommended For | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sewer & Main Line Service | Sewer line inspection and clearing, Main water line repair and replacement, Trenchless repair where pipe condition allows, Root intrusion clearing and assessment | Properties with slow drains across multiple fixtures, sewage backups, or a main line that has not been inspected in years | Tree-root intrusion is a common cause of sewer line problems in established Guadalupe County neighborhoods. We inspect the line first to confirm the cause and assess whether repair or replacement is the right next step. |
| Faucet & Fixture Installation | Dripping faucet repair and replacement, Kitchen and bathroom fixture installation, Shower and tub fixture work, Remodel and upgrade connections | Homeowners upgrading fixtures or dealing with drips, leaks, or fixtures that no longer work correctly | A dripping faucet wears out the valve seat over time and wastes water steadily. We repair or replace the fixture and confirm no connections are leaking before the job is called done. |
| Sump Pump Installation | Sump pit and pump installation, Discharge line routing, Operation confirmation before job close, Service for flood-prone or low-lying areas | Properties in lower-lying areas of Guadalupe County that see water intrusion during heavy rain events | While slab-on-grade construction is the norm in Schertz, properties in flood-prone areas can benefit from a sump pump that moves water away from the structure before it causes damage. We confirm the unit operates correctly before leaving. |
| Water Pressure & Shutoff Valve Repair | Low water pressure diagnosis, Pressure regulator inspection and replacement, Main and fixture shutoff valve repair, Supply line assessment | Homeowners with noticeably weak flow at fixtures or shutoff valves that no longer close fully | A main shutoff that does not fully close is a serious problem in any leak or burst pipe emergency. We address shutoff valve condition as part of pressure calls or as a standalone job. |
| Drain Cleaning & Clog Removal | Kitchen and bathroom drain clearing, Hydro jetting for stubborn buildup, Main sewer line clogs, Floor drain service | Homeowners or property managers with slow, blocked, or recurring drains | Recurring clogs in the same spot often point to a buildup that a standard snake will not fully clear. Hydro jetting pushes high-pressure water through the line and removes what is causing the repeat blockage. |
| Leak Detection & Repair | Pressure testing and electronic detection, Supply line and wall leak repair, Slab leak location and repair, Shutoff valve replacement | Properties with unexplained water damage, high water bills, or visible moisture with no clear source | We locate the leak before opening any wall or floor. Pressure testing narrows the section and electronic detection pinpoints the spot, so the repair is targeted rather than exploratory. |
| Garbage Disposal Service | Disposal diagnosis and repair, Full unit replacement, Leak at base or drain connection, Humming or seized disposal reset | Homeowners with a disposal that hums but will not turn, leaks, or has stopped working altogether | Many disposal problems come down to a seized motor or a failed seal rather than a full unit failure. We diagnose the cause first and replace the unit only when repair is not the practical answer. |
| Whole-Home Repiping | Galvanized, copper, and PEX pipe replacement, Full supply line replacement, Fixture reconnection after repipe, Pressure testing on completion | Older homes with corroding galvanized pipe, recurring pinhole leaks, or persistent low pressure across the whole house | Galvanized lines corrode from the inside and restrict flow over time. Copper can develop pinhole leaks where water chemistry is aggressive. We assess the pipe condition and explain which sections need replacement before any work begins. |
| Emergency Plumbing | Burst and broken pipe repair, Major active leak response, Sewer backup service, Loss of hot water response | Any property facing active water damage, a sewer backup, or a plumbing failure that cannot wait | We take short-notice work and answer calls every day from 7:00 AM to 8:30 PM. Describe what is happening when you call and we will tell you what is available on the schedule. |
| Water Heater Repair & Replacement | Tank and tankless unit diagnosis, Heating element and component repair, Full unit replacement and sizing, Gas and water line connections | Households or businesses with no hot water, inconsistent heating, or a unit that is leaking or aging out | We walk through the repair versus replacement decision on the call. If an upgrade from tank to tankless is the right move, we handle the gas or water line connections as part of the installation. |
| Water Softener Installation | System sizing for property demand, Supply line connections, Softener unit setup and calibration, Scale prevention for fixtures and water heater | Schertz and Guadalupe County homeowners dealing with hard water scale on fixtures, water heaters, or supply lines | Water in this part of Texas carries a high mineral load. Scale builds up inside water heaters, narrows supply lines, and deposits on fixtures over time. A softener addresses the problem at the source before it reaches those components. |
| Toilet Repair & Installation | Running toilet diagnosis and repair, Clogged toilet clearing, Full toilet replacement, Wax ring and supply line service | Any household or commercial property with a toilet that runs, leaks, clogs repeatedly, or needs replacing | A running toilet can waste a significant amount of water before it is addressed. Many running toilet issues come down to an internal valve or flapper, but we confirm the cause before recommending a repair or replacement. |
