Plumbing Service and Repair in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

A sudden, house-wide drop in water pressure is usually caused by one of three things. First, your home’s Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) may have failed and is restricting the flow from the municipal supply. Second, the extremely hard water in the Dallas-Fort Worth area may have finally caused enough mineral scale buildup to choke your main water line. Finally, and most critically, a sudden drop could indicate a massive, hidden leak or a ruptured pipe somewhere on your property. If your pressure drops drastically, you need a Pact Plumbing technician to inspect the system immediately.

While a running toilet won’t immediately flood your bathroom, it is an emergency for your water bill. A constantly running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons of water a day. The issue is usually a degraded rubber flapper, a misaligned float, or a failing fill valve inside the tank. These are relatively quick, inexpensive repairs for our technicians that will save you a massive headache when your next utility bill arrives.

If your kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and shower are all gurgling or backing up simultaneously, the problem is not a localized clog. You have a blockage in your main sewer line.
In North Texas, this is frequently caused by shifting clay soils breaking the pipe or mature tree roots invading the underground sewer line. Do not run any more water, as it has nowhere to go but back up into your home. Pact Plumbing utilizes high-resolution sewer cameras and heavy-duty hydro-jetting to locate and clear these massive main line blockages.

Not necessarily. A humming disposal usually means the motor is still getting power, but the internal flywheel is jammed by a hard object (like a bone, fruit pit, or piece of silverware). While you can sometimes free the jam using an Allen wrench on the bottom of the unit, you should never put your hand down the drain. If the motor is burned out or the housing is leaking, our technicians can quickly swap it out for a new, heavy-duty unit.

The severe winter freezes we occasionally see in DFW can cause uninsulated pipes to burst catastrophically. The very first thing you must do is locate your home’s main water shut-off valve (usually located near the street at the water meter, or inside your garage) and turn it off completely to stop the flooding. Once the water is off, call Pact Plumbing. We provide rapid emergency pipe repair and replacement to get your home’s infrastructure secured.

Yes. Beyond the annoyance of the constant dripping sound, a single leaky faucet can waste over 3,000 gallons of water a year. Furthermore, letting a faucet drip for months will eventually carve grooves into the internal brass valve seat, turning a simple, inexpensive O-ring or cartridge replacement into a repair that requires an entirely new, expensive fixture.

At Pact Plumbing, we strongly advise against using over-the-counter chemical drain cleaners. These products rely on caustic chemical reactions that generate massive amounts of heat. While they might temporarily melt away some grease, that intense heat warps modern PVC pipes and rapidly corrodes older metal pipes. Instead of destroying your plumbing infrastructure, our technicians use professional drain snaking and hydro-jetting to physically remove the clog safely and permanently.
