The jobs we're called for most
- Water heaters, or "boilers." Plenty of people here call the water heater a boiler. Either word gets the same help, from a pilot that won't stay lit or a leaking tank to a full tank or tankless swap. See water heater repair, new water heater installation and our bilingual boiler repair page.
- Slab leaks and hidden leaks. A bill that climbs while your habits don't, a warm spot on tile, or a meter that creeps with every tap closed. Soil that dries in summer and swells after rain strains the pipes under a slab. See leak detection and slab leak repair.
- Drains and sewer lines. One slow sink usually means a nearby clog. If the tub, toilet and washer all gurgle at once, the trouble is likely in the main line, whether it runs to the city sewer or out to a septic tank. See drain cleaning and sewer line repair and replacement.
- Garbage disposals. Humming without spinning, dripping underneath or tripping the reset. See garbage disposal replacement.
- Sinks and faucets. Drips, wobbly handles, chipped basins and new fixtures. See sink repair and faucet repair and installation.
- Hard water. Crusty aerators, cloudy glasses and scale in the bottom of water heaters are everyday sights here. See hard water and softeners.
- Gas lines. Corroded or leaking pipe and new runs to a range, dryer, generator or outdoor kitchen, on natural gas or propane (propane tank work stays with your supplier). See gas line services and gas line repair.
- Emergencies. A split pipe, sewage rising in a shower or a valve that won't close. See emergency plumbing.
Smell gas? Leave the building first. Don't flip switches or light anything. Once you're outside, call 911 or your gas utility's emergency line (CPS Energy in San Antonio), or your propane supplier if your home runs on propane. Then call us.

Homes on acreage: wells, septic and long water lines
Past the city limits, many houses draw water from a private well and drain to a septic system. Elsewhere, tap water may come from SAWS, East Central SUD, SS Water Supply Corporation or the City of La Vernia, depending on the address. Either way, we take care of the plumbing that links the source to the house:
- buried supply pipe from the well house or meter, including leaks in a long run across a pasture
- the sewer pipe running from the house to the septic tank
- exposed supply pipe between the well house and the home that froze and split
- water heaters, fixtures and gas piping on the property
Septic pumping and tank repairs belong to TCEQ-licensed or registered septic (OSSF) companies, and pump trouble goes to a well specialist. We handle the house-side pipes listed above.
When you call us at night
The same number covers our 24/7 emergency service.
- Tell us where you are, what you see and whether anything is still leaking.
- Gas odor? Everyone goes outside first; the box above has the steps.
- Gas smell, burst pipe, sewage rising through a floor drain, or water nobody can stop? We send our on-call plumber right away.
- We also coach you through closing the main valve before the plumber arrives. On a well, flip off the pump breaker too. On septic, hold off on running water.
- If it isn't an emergency, we book a visit at a time that suits you.

Questions we hear from homeowners
Are you licensed?
+
Yes: Texas plumbing license # M-27587. You can confirm it through the public license lookup on the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners website before you hire anyone.
Do you work on rural properties in Wilson County?
+
Yes. We work on homes on acreage around La Vernia, Floresville, Stockdale, Poth and Sutherland Springs. Our part is the house side: supply lines from the well house or meter, the sewer pipe to the septic tank, water heaters, fixtures and gas piping. Pumping or repairing the septic tank itself is a job for a TCEQ-licensed or registered septic company.
Do you take emergency calls after the office closes?
+
Yes, we offer 24/7 emergency service. If a pipe bursts, sewage backs into the house or the water won't shut off, call (830) 475-2604 at any hour; we send our on-call plumber right away. Meanwhile, close the main valve if you can, and if the house runs on a well, switch its pump off at the breaker.
Which plumbing jobs in La Vernia need a city permit?
+
Inside city limits, the City of La Vernia's residential permit packet lists swapping out a gas or electric water heater, adding a water softener and gas line work, and each job must pass inspection. The plumber doing the work pulls the permit. Outside town, the rules depend on where the house sits, so ask us when you call.
