Talk to us first. Describe the problem on the phone and we’ll tell you what we’d check — and whether it can wait.
What we fix
If it drips, drains, or heats water — we handle it
Everyday repairs and the not-so-everyday surprises, for homes across the Schertz and Cibolo area.
Drain cleaning
Slow sinks, backed-up showers, stubborn kitchen lines — cleared properly, with a look at what caused it.
Leak repair
Under sinks, behind walls, at the water heater — we find the source, fix it, and confirm it’s dry.
Water heaters
Lukewarm showers, rumbling tanks, pilot problems. Repair, flush, or a walk-through of replacement options.
Fixture repair
Dripping faucets, running toilets, crusted-up showerheads — small fixes that stop big water waste.
Water pressure
Weak showers or banging pipes. Often mineral buildup or a regulator issue — both very fixable.
Garbage disposals
Humming, jammed, leaking underneath, or just done. Repaired or swapped, your call.
Sewer warning signs
Gurgles, odors, more than one slow drain. We check the main line before anyone talks about big work.
Urgent problems
Burst pipe, water you can’t shut off, sewage backing up — call right away and we’ll talk you through the first steps.
Hill Country water
Our water is great to drink — and tough on pipes
Water around Schertz comes up through limestone, so it carries plenty of dissolved minerals. That’s the white crust on your faucets, the film on shower glass, and — over the years — scale inside water heaters, valves, and fixtures.
Add hot summers that keep systems working hard, and the occasional cold snap that catches exposed pipes off guard, and local plumbing earns its keep. Periodic heater flushes and early attention to slow drips keep the mineral tax low.
White buildup on fixtures — mineral scale; cleanable now, flow-restricting later.
Rumbling water heater — sediment on the tank bottom; a flush usually quiets it.
First hard freeze of the year — know where your shutoff is; we’re glad to show you during any visit.
How it works
Three steps from “uh oh” to fixed
Call us
Tell us what’s happening. We’ll ask a few questions and let you know what to do in the meantime — like where to shut off the water.
We take a look
A plumber checks it out in person, finds the actual cause, and explains your options in plain English — then reviews the available next step
You’re back to normal
We do the work you approved, test it, and tidy up. You get a working home and a straight answer about how to keep it that way.
Where we work
Schertz, Cibolo, and the I‑35 corridor
This stretch between San Antonio and New Braunfels is growing fast — new rooftops going in next to neighborhoods that have been here for decades. We work on both: builder-grade fixtures hitting their first repairs, and older homes with plumbing that’s earned a checkup.
If you’re near Schertz, chances are good you’re in our range.

Good to know
Questions we hear around Schertz
What should I do first if a pipe bursts?
Shut off the water at the main valve — usually near the street in a covered box, or where the line enters the house — then open a faucet to relieve pressure, and call us. If you don’t know where your shutoff is, find it on a calm day, not a wet one; we’re glad to point it out during any visit.
Why does my water heater rumble or pop?
That’s sediment — minerals from our limestone-filtered water settling at the bottom of the tank. Water gets trapped underneath, boils, and pops. A flush usually fixes it and helps the heater last; if it’s been rumbling for years, we’ll assess the tank’s condition first.
More than one drain is slow — is that serious?
It can be. One slow drain is usually a local clog. Several at once — especially with gurgling or odors — points to the main sewer line. That’s worth a prompt look before it becomes a backup into the house.
Does hard water mean I need a water softener?
Not necessarily. Plenty of local homes do fine with periodic maintenance — heater flushes, aerator cleaning, early fixture repairs. A softener is worth discussing if you’re replacing a water heater or fighting constant scale. We’ll give you the tradeoffs, not a pitch.
Should I worry about pipes freezing here?
A few times a year, yes — Hill Country cold snaps arrive fast, and exposed pipes, outdoor faucets, and lines in unheated garages are the usual casualties. Before a freeze: disconnect hoses, cover hose bibs, and drip faucets on exterior walls. If a pipe does freeze, don’t apply open flame — call us.
How do I know if a running toilet is wasting real money?
A silently running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day. Quick test: put a few drops of food coloring in the tank and wait 15 minutes without flushing — if color reaches the bowl, the flapper is leaking. It’s one of the cheapest fixes in plumbing.
Whatever it’s doing, don’t wrestle with it alone.
One call, a clear plan, and a plumber who knows Schertz water.
