Faucet & Fixture Repair in West Des Moines, Iowa

Shower valves are where we spend most of our fixture time in West Des Moines. When the temperature swings while somebody is in there, the balancing spool has usually failed, and that is a repair rather than a tear-out. Where the valve body itself is finished, we will tell you what is involved before opening the wall.

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.

Older sewer lines here are clay or cast iron

Plenty of West Des Moines homes still run their waste out to the street through clay tile with a joint every few feet, and roots find every one of them. Cast iron scales shut from the inside instead. Either way, a main line that backs up twice in a year is telling you something a camera can confirm in twenty minutes.

West Des Moines customers on our faucet repair work

★★★★★

Called on Christmas Eve about a frozen pipe. Fully expected a holiday surcharge and there wasn't one. Same price as any other day, which I did not expect and have not forgotten.

Owen K. · West Des Moines, IA

★★★★★

Third plumber we called about a main line that kept backing up. First two just cabled it and left. These guys ran a camera, showed me the cracked joint on the screen, and lined it. Two years and no problems since.

Priya N. · Des Moines, 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.

Faucet Repair in West Des Moines: common questions

Is a dripping faucet worth fixing?

Yes - a steady drip runs into real water over a year, and the same wear that causes the drip is chewing the valve seat while it continues. It is one of the cheapest repairs in a West Des Moines home.

Can you repair my shower instead of replacing the valve?

Usually. Most shower problems are a worn cartridge or balancing spool inside a perfectly good valve body. We try the repair first and only discuss replacement when the body itself has failed.

Can I supply my own faucet?

Absolutely. Plenty of West Des Moines customers buy the fixture they want and have us fit it. We will tell you honestly if a particular unit is going to give trouble before it goes in.

Why does only one tap have low pressure?

Nearly always a clogged aerator or a partially closed shutoff at that fixture. Both are quick. If every fixture is low, the cause is elsewhere in the system and we look at that instead.

Do you serve the smaller towns around West Des Moines?

We do. Our West Des Moines 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.
