Emergency call for a burst pipe in a commercial unit. They stabilised it that night and came back to do the permanent repair when we were closed.

Repiping & Water Line Repair in Des Moines, Iowa
There is a point where fixing one more pinhole in a galvanised system stops being economical. In older Des Moines homes we see it as brown water in the morning, pressure that has been dropping for years, and a third leak in eighteen months. A repipe ends that cycle rather than extending it.
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 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.

Sump pump died during a storm. Called at 11pm, got a person, had a new pump and a battery backup in the next morning. Basement stayed dry through the rest of the week.

They installed a new 50 gallon heater and hauled the old one away same visit. Took about three hours start to finish and the expansion tank was included, which the other quote had left off.

Repiping in Des Moines: common questions
How long does a whole house repipe take?
A typical Des Moines home runs two to five days depending on size, number of bathrooms and how accessible the runs are. You keep water each night - we do not leave a house dry.
PEX or copper - which should I choose?
PEX is faster to install, costs less, handles freezing better and needs fewer joints. Copper lasts a very long time and some owners prefer it. Both are solid; we quote both for your Des Moines home and explain where each one wins.
Will you patch the drywall afterwards?
We make the access openings and can arrange patch and paint, or leave them clean and square for your own contractor. Either way it is agreed in writing before we start.
Is my low water pressure a repipe problem?
Not always. It can be a pressure regulator, a partially closed valve, a clogged aerator or a leak. We diagnose the cause before recommending anything as large as a repipe.
How quickly can you get to an emergency in Des Moines?
Usually within the hour for Des Moines addresses. When you call (833) 435-9778 we give you a real arrival window before you hang up, and we call again if anything changes it.
