The plumber you call before the situation gets worse.

From a midnight water heater leak in Sandy to a clogged main line in Park City, we show up clean, on time, and ready to fix it right the first time.

What we do

Full-service plumbing & heating across the Wasatch Front

Residential and light-commercial work, from a leaky faucet to a complete repipe or boiler replacement.

Water Heaters

Tank, tankless, and hybrid heat-pump installs, repairs, and same-day swaps when yours quits.

When yours fails

Cold shower this morning? We carry the most common sizes and brands on the truck so most replacements happen in a single visit. We'll size the new unit to your household's hot-water use, install it to code, and haul the old one away.

Tank, tankless, or heat-pump

Tank water heaters are the workhorse — affordable, reliable, easy to service. Tankless heats on demand and never runs out. Heat-pump hybrids run 60–70% more efficiently than tank. We'll walk through which fits your house, not push the most expensive option.

Repair before replace

Lukewarm water isn't always a new-heater problem. It could be an anode rod that's done its job, a failed element, a bad thermocouple, or sediment buildup. We diagnose first, then tell you straight if repair is worth it.

Maintenance & flushes

Annual flush and anode-rod check on a tank water heater can double its lifespan, especially in our hard-water region. One-time service visits or yearly maintenance plans available.

Recirculation systems

Tired of running the tap for 90 seconds before hot water shows up at the far bathroom? A recirculation pump fixes that. Dedicated-line and crossover systems available depending on your home's layout.

Drain Cleaning

Snake, auger, or hydro-jet. We clear it, then camera the line so you know it's actually fixed.

The right tool for the job

Bathroom sink? A hand auger usually does it. Kitchen sink with grease buildup? Cable machine. Whole-house slow drainage or recurring main-line clogs? Hydro-jetting. We don't reach for the biggest tool every time — that's how plumbers damage older pipes.

When hydro-jetting is the answer

Years of grease, scale, and tree-root intrusion in older sewer lines can't always be cabled out — the cable just punches a hole through and the line clogs again in weeks. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of the pipe back to bare metal.

Camera inspection included

After we clear a main line, we camera it so you can see for yourself that it's actually open. If we find something concerning, we'll show you, mark the location, and discuss options.

Preventive maintenance

If you have an older home with clay or cast-iron sewer pipes, annual maintenance is way cheaper than emergency service after raw sewage backs up into a finished basement.

Sewer & Main Line

Camera inspection, spot repair, and trenchless replacement when digging the yard isn't an option.

Sewer camera inspection

We push a camera through your line and record what we see. You watch on a monitor with us. We mark suspect spots with a transmitter so we know exactly where to dig if it comes to that — no exploratory excavation.

Spot repair vs full replacement

Sometimes a single offset joint or 6-foot section of damaged pipe is the whole problem. Sometimes the line is 60+ years old and crumbling in five places — at which point spot repairs are throwing good money after bad. We'll tell you honestly which situation you're in.

Trenchless options

Pipe bursting and pipe lining let us replace or restore a damaged line without trenching your entire yard. Not always the right call, but when it is, it saves a small fortune in landscaping and concrete work.

Tree roots

Roots in the line are usually a symptom — they're getting in through joints or cracks that already exist. Cutting them out helps for a season, but the long-term fix is sealing or replacing the affected section.

Emergency Plumbing

Burst pipes, overflowing toilets, no hot water. Call us first — most calls get a same-day window.

Burst & frozen pipes

We see a lot of this in older homes, garages, and unfinished basements during a Utah cold snap. We'll shut off the water, locate the break, repair the line, and walk you through how to prevent the same spot freezing next winter.

Sewer backups & overflowing toilets

If raw sewage is coming up through a floor drain or shower, stop running any water and call us. This usually means a main-line blockage. We clear it, then camera it to make sure nothing else is going on.

No hot water

Pilot light out, element failed, gas valve dead, or tank just leaking everywhere — we diagnose on the spot. Most failures we can resolve same-visit, including same-day water heater replacement if the unit is done.

Gas leaks

If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas company first to shut off supply. Then call us. We're licensed for gas piping repair and can get the system back online safely.

Slab leaks

Hot floor in one spot? Hot water bill suddenly doubled? You may have a leak in a copper line running through your slab. We locate it without breaking the whole floor, repair or reroute it, and document for insurance if applicable.

Insurance documentation

If your situation involves a homeowner's insurance claim, we provide invoices, photos, and written diagnosis on request — typed up the way adjusters expect to see them.

Leak Detection

Acoustic and thermal location so we find the leak without tearing the whole wall apart.

Slab leak detection

Leaks in copper or PEX lines running under your foundation are some of the trickiest to find. We use electronic listening devices and thermal cameras to triangulate the leak location, then talk through repair vs reroute.

Hidden wall & ceiling leaks

Sometimes a wet spot is right under the leak. Often it's not — water travels along framing and shows up two rooms away from where it started. We trace it back to the source before you open a single piece of drywall.

Pressure testing

When we can't hear or see a leak but the meter keeps spinning, we isolate sections of the plumbing system and pressure-test each one to narrow down where the loss is happening.

Repipe estimates

Older homes with galvanized steel supply lines often reach a point where leak-chasing isn't worth it anymore — the whole system is corroding from the inside. We provide honest repipe estimates with realistic timelines.

Catch it early

A small leak today is a $300 fix. A small leak two months from now, after the subfloor has rotted and mold has taken over, is a $15,000 fix. If something seems off, get it looked at.

Boilers & Radiant Heat

Hydronic systems serviced, repaired, and replaced. Snow-melt and in-floor heat are our specialty.

Boiler repair & replacement

Cast-iron, condensing, combi — we work on them all. Annual service catches small issues before they become winter emergencies. When a boiler is genuinely done, we'll size and install the right replacement based on your home's actual heat-loss profile.

In-floor radiant heat

The most comfortable heating system you can put in a house. We install new systems for new builds and additions, and retrofit them in existing homes where the floor structure allows. Quiet, even, and dramatically more efficient than forced air.

Snow-melt systems

Tired of shoveling? Snow-melt uses the same hydronic loop tech run under concrete or pavers. Driveway, walkway, and entry steps stay clear automatically. We design and install.

Annual tune-ups & combustion testing

Every gas-fired boiler should be tuned annually — combustion analyzed, heat exchanger inspected, pressure relief tested. Skipping this for years is how surprise mid-winter failures happen.

Repair or replace?

Generally: if a boiler is under 15 years old and the repair is under 30% of replacement cost, fix it. Older than 15 and needing a major component? Time to talk replacement. We'll lay out the math and let you decide.

About

The other guy you should've called first.

A locally owned plumbing and heating company built on a simple idea: do the job the way you'd want it done in your own house.

Most folks don't think about their plumber until water is on the floor. We get it — and we've built the company around being the kind of plumber you're actually glad you called. That means picking up the phone when you call, showing up in the window we promised, quoting the job before we start, and leaving your home cleaner than we found it.

Honest quotes

You see the number before we start. If we run into something unexpected, we stop and re-quote — we don't surprise you at the end.

Trained techs

Licensed, background-checked, and continually trained. The person showing up at your door is someone we'd send to our own mom's house.

Right first time

We carry common parts on the truck. Most service calls finish in a single visit — and if we have to come back, the second trip is on us.

Clean work

Drop cloths down, shoes covered, the work area swept and wiped before we leave. You shouldn't be able to tell we were there.

Real warranty

Two-year workmanship warranty on installs, plus full manufacturer coverage on parts. If something we did fails, we make it right.

Local, always

We live in these neighborhoods. Not a franchise routing calls to a national dispatch center. Your call goes to a Utah office, every time.
