Called about a gas smell near the water heater. They told me to get out of the house first and call the utility, then came and found it. Took it seriously, which I appreciated.

Burst Pipe Repair in Pleasant Hill, Iowa
Iowa winters split pipes. When the temperature drops and a line in an exterior wall or an unheated crawl space freezes, the ice does not break the pipe where it forms - it breaks it downstream when the pressure has nowhere to go. That is why a Pleasant Hill burst often shows up in a spot that never froze at all.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Tree roots and the front yard
Mature trees are one of the nicer things about older Pleasant Hill 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 bill nearly doubled and I could not find anything wrong. They found a slab leak under the hallway with a listening device, cut one small square of flooring, and fixed it. I was braced for a lot worse.

Burst Pipe Repair in Pleasant Hill: common questions
What do I do right now if a pipe has burst?
Shut the main water valve off - usually where the line enters the basement or at the meter - then open the lowest faucet in the house to drain the pressure. Kill power to any circuit near the water. Then call (833) 435-9778.
How much does burst pipe repair cost in Pleasant Hill?
It depends on where the pipe is and what has to come out to reach it. An accessible basement run is straightforward; a pipe inside a finished wall costs more because of the access. You get the number for your Pleasant Hill home before we start.
Will you come out at night for a burst pipe?
Yes, and at the same price as daytime. Burst pipes in Pleasant Hill are exactly what our 24/7 line exists for - waiting until morning turns a plumbing repair into a restoration job.
Can you stop this from happening again?
Often, yes. We look at the run that failed and tell you whether it needs insulating, rerouting, or heat tape, and whether your house pressure is too high. Most repeat freezes are fixable.
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.
