A local plumber who treats your home like a jobsite should be treated

We wear shoe covers, lay drop cloths and clean up before we leave. More importantly, we explain what we found in plain language and give you options. If a $25 part fixes it, that is what we recommend.

Residential Plumbing FAQs

How much does a plumber cost in Reno or Sparks?

Most residential repairs are quoted as a flat price after diagnosis, so you know the total before work begins. Simple fixes like a faucet cartridge or toilet fill valve are typically a few hundred dollars; larger jobs like repiping are quoted after an inspection.

How fast can you get to my house?

We schedule most non-emergency residential calls within one to two business days. For active leaks, sewer backups or no water, call (775) 406-1687 and we will dispatch 24/7.

Should I repair or replace old galvanized pipes?

If your home has galvanized steel supply lines and you are seeing low pressure, rusty water or repeated leaks, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated repairs. We can inspect and quote a repipe in PEX or copper.

Do you guarantee your residential work?

Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed and manufacturer warranties apply to parts and equipment. See our warranties page for current terms.
