26 service pagesLas Vegas and Clark County
Every service we cover in Las Vegas and Clark County
Twenty six service pages in six groups. Each one says what is included, what decides the price and, where it applies, what we will tell you not to buy.
- Diagnosis before a price
- Water softeners, all makes and models
- Every local figure sourced
Figures above are published third party data, not company claims. Sources: Las Vegas Valley Water District, water district hardness figure, water district supply figure, Clark County.
These are grouped the way a plumbing problem actually presents itself, rather than the way a price book is organised. If water is running now, start with emergency plumbing. If you are not sure which specialist you need, start with plumbing repair.
Water treatment gets six pages of its own, because valley water is 291 parts per million, 17 grains per gallon, and classed very hard by the water district, and because softening, filtration and conditioning are three different products that solve three different complaints and get sold as if they were one.
Repair and emergency
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/plumbing-repair/">Plumbing repair</a> | The general repair page. Start here when something is leaking, dripping, draining slowly or not working and you are not sure which specialist you need. |
| <a href="/services/emergency-plumbing/">Emergency plumbing</a> | Water where water should not be. How to stop it in the next two minutes, and what we need to know when you call. |
| <a href="/services/residential-plumbing/">Residential plumbing</a> | Houses, condos and townhomes. Repairs, replacements and the maintenance that keeps a hard water house out of trouble. |
| <a href="/services/commercial-plumbing/">Commercial plumbing</a> | Restaurants, retail, offices and multi unit property, where a closed restroom costs money by the hour. |
Drains and sewer
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/drain-cleaning/">Drain cleaning</a> | Cabling, jetting and camera work. The method depends on what is in the pipe, which is why we look before we quote. |
| <a href="/services/clogged-drain-repair/">Clogged drains</a> | One slow fixture is a different job from every drain backing up at once. This page tells you which one you have. |
| <a href="/services/hydro-jetting/">Hydro jetting</a> | High pressure water that scours the pipe wall. The right answer for grease, scale and roots, the wrong answer for fragile pipe. |
| <a href="/services/sewer-line-services/">Sewer line services</a> | Spot repairs, trenchless lining and full replacement, plus who owns the pipe between your house and the street. |
| <a href="/services/sewer-camera-inspection/">Sewer camera inspection</a> | A camera down the line before you buy a house or authorise a dig. The cheapest hour on this whole site. |
Leaks and pipes
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/leak-detection/">Leak detection</a> | Finding it is a separate skill from fixing it. Acoustic, pressure and thermal, before anyone cuts anything open. |
| <a href="/services/pipe-repair/">Pipe repair</a> | Copper, PEX, galvanised and polybutylene. What the rest of the pipe looks like decides repair against replace. |
| <a href="/services/slab-leak-repair/">Slab leak repair</a> | A warm patch of floor, a meter that never stops, a wall that sweats. Located first, then repaired, rerouted or replaced. |
| <a href="/services/repiping/">Repiping</a> | When the third leak in a year says the pipe is the problem. What a repipe involves, start to inspection. |
Fixtures and disposals
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/faucet-repair-and-installation/">Faucet repair and installation</a> | Cartridges, valves and replacements. Hard water is why valley faucets seize earlier than the box promises. |
| <a href="/services/toilet-repair-and-installation/">Toilet repair and installation</a> | Running, rocking, weeping at the base or blocked. Some are a five dollar part, some are a failed flange. |
| <a href="/services/garbage-disposal-services/">Garbage disposal services</a> | Humming, jammed, leaking or dead silent. Three of those are fixable and one means a new unit. |
| <a href="/services/plumbing-fixture-installation/">Plumbing fixture installation</a> | Sinks, tubs, showers, hose bibs, laundry boxes, pot fillers. Bring your own fixture or we will source it. |
Water heaters
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/water-heater-repair/">Water heater repair</a> | No hot water, not enough, rumbling or leaking. A leak from the tank body is the one that ends the conversation. |
| <a href="/services/water-heater-installation/">Water heater installation</a> | Including the permit, the two straps, the accessible shut off and the inspection that signs it off. |
| <a href="/services/tankless-water-heaters/">Tankless water heaters</a> | Endless hot water, real trade offs. In 17 grain water, descaling is maintenance and not an upsell. |
Water treatment
| Service | What the page covers |
|---|---|
| <a href="/services/water-softener-installation/">Water softener installation</a> | Sized to real valley hardness, installed where the plumbing and the drain actually allow it. |
| <a href="/services/water-softener-repair/">Water softener repair</a> | All makes and models. Salt bridges, stuck valves, dead controls and resin that has simply worn out. |
| <a href="/services/water-softener-replacement/">Water softener replacement</a> | The repair against replace call, made on the age of the resin and the cost of the valve, not on a sales target. |
| <a href="/services/water-softener-maintenance/">Water softener maintenance</a> | Salt, settings, resin and the annual check. Most softener failures we see are maintenance that never happened. |
| <a href="/services/water-filtration/">Water filtration</a> | Carbon, sediment and reverse osmosis. Filtration and softening solve different problems, and both get sold as one. |
| <a href="/services/water-treatment/">Water treatment</a> | The hub page. Softening, filtration and conditioning compared, with the water authority numbers cited. |
Six of the twenty six pages are water treatment, and this is why: the water district classes valley tap water very hard.
Every service above, across the whole valley
Each area page also tells you which authority issues a permit for your address, which is the one thing that genuinely differs between valley communities.

We are a service area business. We come to you, so there is no counter to visit and no street address on this page. The number above is the fastest way in.
What to have ready
None of it is required. All of it makes the call shorter.
- Where you areThe address, and a cross street if the address is new or hard to find. Which end of the valley you are on decides who is closest.
- What is happening, in your own wordsNo plumbing vocabulary needed. "Water under the sink since this morning" is a better description than a guess at the cause.
- Whether water is running right nowThis is the question that changes everything else. If it is, say so first and we will talk you to the shutoff before anything else.
- What you have already triedPlunged it, reset the disposal, flipped the breaker, ran the softener through a regeneration. It saves repeating the steps that did not work.
- Whether you own or rentA landlord or an HOA sometimes has to authorise the work, and it is better to find that out on the phone than at the door.
Water pouring right now? Do not read the rest of this. Call (725) 255-9011 and shut off the supply while it rings.
Questions people actually ask
Which service page should I start with?
If water is running and you cannot stop it, emergency plumbing. If something is broken and you are not sure what specialist it needs, plumbing repair. If the complaint is spotting, film, scale or appliances dying early, start at water treatment.
Do you cover all four water softener services?
Yes: installation, repair, replacement and maintenance, each with its own page, for all makes and models. Repair and maintenance come first in that list on purpose, because most of the softener failures we are called to are repairable and some cost nothing but the visit.
Do you charge to come out and look?
Any diagnostic or service call cost is told to you before anyone is dispatched. No figure is published on this site because none has been confirmed for publication, and we would rather you heard a real number on the phone than a marketing one here.
Can you handle several jobs in one visit?
Usually yes, and it costs less than separate calls. Mention everything when you phone rather than saving items for the arrival, so the right parts are on the van.
