Plumbing services in Alexander, Iowa
Everything below is available in Alexander, day or night, at the same flat pricing we use everywhere else in the state.
Drain Cleaning
Slow sinks, gurgling tubs and clogged main lines cleared with a cable or a jetter, then camera-checked so it stays clear.
Read moreWater Heater Repair
No hot water, not enough of it, or a puddle under the tank. Diagnosed and repaired the same day where the tank is worth saving.
Read moreWater Heater Replacement
Old tank out, new tank in, usually inside a morning. Correct venting, new flex lines, expansion tank and a permit where the city wants one.
Read moreTankless Water Heater Installation
Endless hot water and a wall back in your basement, done with the gas line and venting sized properly rather than hoped at.
Read moreBurst Pipe Repair
Water shut off, the split section cut out and replaced, and the line pressure-tested before we leave. Any hour, any day.
Read moreWater Leak Repair
Acoustic and thermal leak detection that finds the pipe before we open the wall, then a proper repair rather than a patch.
Read moreSewer Line Repair
Root intrusion, collapsed clay and bellied lines repaired by trenchless lining where the pipe allows and open cut where it does not.
Read moreHydro Jetting
High-pressure water that scours grease, scale and roots back to bare pipe wall instead of drilling a hole through them.
Read moreSewer Camera Inspection
A recorded look down the line before you buy a house, or before anyone quotes you for digging up the yard.
Read moreToilet Repair
Running, rocking, leaking or overflowing. Rebuilt in an hour or replaced with a new pan set on a fresh flange and wax.
Read moreSump Pump Repair
The one pump in the house that only matters on the worst night of the year. Tested, repaired, replaced and backed up.
Read moreGas Line Repair
Gas smell, a leak on the meter side, or a new run for a range, dryer, grill or garage heater. Pressure-tested every time.
Read moreRepiping
Whole-house repipes and main water line replacement when patching galvanised or polybutylene has stopped making sense.
Read moreWater Softener Installation
Iowa water is hard. A properly sized softener protects the water heater, the fixtures and everything you wash.
Read moreCommercial Plumbing
Restaurants, salons, clinics, offices and shops. Scheduled around your hours so a plumbing problem never closes your doors.
Read moreFrozen Pipe Repair
Thawed safely, checked for splits as it comes back, and the run insulated or rerouted so next winter is quieter.
Read moreGarbage Disposal Repair
Humming, jammed, leaking or dead. Freed and repaired where it is worth it, swapped where the motor has gone.
Read moreFaucet Repair
Dripping faucets, failing shower valves, dead shutoffs and new fixture installs done without wrecking the finish.
Read moreBackflow Testing
Annual testing, repair and documentation for irrigation systems, commercial buildings and fire lines.
Read moreWhat we see most in Alexander
Tree roots and the front yard
Mature trees are one of the nicer things about older Alexander streets and one of the harder things on sewer lines. Roots do not break into a sound pipe - they find a joint that has already opened slightly and then widen it. Cutting them buys a season; lining the pipe ends it.
Water pressure worth checking
A lot of Alexander homes run higher static pressure than they should, and high pressure quietly shortens the life of every valve, supply line and water heater in the house. It is a cheap thing to measure and an inexpensive thing to correct with a pressure reducing valve.
Spring thaw is when sump pumps get tested
A sump pump in Alexander sits idle for months and then has one important night. That is usually also the night the power flickers. We check the float, the check valve and the discharge line, and we talk to most Alexander homeowners about a battery backup, because an unbacked pump and a storm outage is how basements flood here.

Reviews from Alexander and nearby
★★★★★
Toilet had been running for who knows how long. Quick visit, new flapper and fill valve, and my water bill dropped noticeably the next month. Wish I had called a year earlier.
Ray B. · Alexander, IA
★★★★★
Woke up to water coming through the kitchen ceiling at about 4am. Somebody answered on the second ring, talked me through shutting the main off, and a truck was here inside the hour. Split pipe in the bathroom wall. Fixed and tested before I left for work.
Dana R. · Alexander, IA
★★★★★
Toilet was rocking and had been for ages. Broken flange underneath. They repaired it properly rather than just adding another wax ring on top.

Plumbing questions from Alexander customers
How much does a plumber cost in Alexander?
We quote flat, per job, before any work starts. You hear the number on the phone or at your door, you agree to it, and it does not change because the job took longer than expected. There is no hourly clock running while we diagnose.
What plumbing services do you offer in Alexander?
Drain and sewer cleaning, hydro jetting, sewer camera inspections, water heater repair and replacement, tankless installation, leak detection, burst and frozen pipe repair, repiping, toilets and faucets, garbage disposals, sump pumps, gas lines, water softeners, backflow testing and commercial plumbing.
Do you serve the smaller towns around Alexander?
We do. Our Alexander coverage extends through the surrounding communities, and we run across the whole state, so being outside the city limits does not mean waiting longer or paying a travel premium.
Do you have a plumber available in Alexander right now?
Almost always. Our Alexander line is answered around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call (833) 435-9778 and we will tell you honestly how soon a truck can be at your address rather than giving you a vague window.
Can you come out the same day in Alexander?
Yes, most Alexander calls are handled the same day, and genuine emergencies - flooding, sewage backups, no water, gas smells - get moved to the front of the queue immediately.
What should I do while I wait for the plumber?
For anything involving running water, shut the main valve off and open the lowest faucet in the house to drain the pressure. For a gas smell, get everyone outside first and call from there. For a backup, stop using every fixture in the house, not just the one that is blocked.
