Plumber in Irving: Plumbing Services – Emergency Repairs, Drains, Water Heaters & Slab Leaks

Maybe the ceiling’s dripping, the shower’s cold, or the drain won’t drain. When you need a plumber in Irving, the hard part usually isn’t finding someone. It’s knowing which service fixes your problem. Picking the right plumbing service in Irving starts with knowing what each one fixes, and Xtreme Air Services covers the full range under one roof.

Most Irving homes sit on concrete slabs over clay soil. That soil swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it’s dry. The movement puts stress on pipes, and it’s a big reason slab leaks show up more here than in places with basements. Add the hard freezes North Texas gets some winters, and small problems can turn urgent fast.

Xtreme Air Services is a family-owned HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractor with 17 years in business since 2009, serving Irving and the greater DFW Metroplex. Our licensed, background-checked technicians answer the phone around the clock and get to you the same day. Each section below explains what a service covers and when you need it, from emergencies and water heaters to drains, sewer lines, and gas safety.

Emergency Plumbing Covers Problems That Can’t Wait

It’s 2 a.m. and you hear water where water shouldn’t be. Maybe it’s spraying from under the sink. Maybe the main line backed up into the tub. That’s what emergency plumbing is for.

Emergency plumbing means a technician comes out fast to stop the damage, figure out what failed, and get your water running again. In Irving, these calls often start small. An old supply line finally gives out, or a hard freeze cracks a pipe overnight. By morning, you’ve got a real mess on your hands.

It’s worth calling right away when:

• Water is actively leaking, spraying, or pooling
• You’ve lost water to the whole house
• Sewage is backing up into a drain, toilet, or tub
• Your water heater is leaking onto the floor

Here’s a simple tip. Find your main water shutoff before you ever need it. Turning it off buys you real time while help is on the way. When you call us, you’ll talk to a real person who can walk you through the shutoff while a technician heads to your home. Find out more on our Emergency Plumbing in Irving page.

Drain Cleaning Clears Everyday Clogs

Drain cleaning is the go-to fix for a slow or stopped-up sink, tub, shower, or floor drain. A technician runs a cable, often called a snake, down the line to break up or pull out whatever’s stuck. Hair, soap scum, food scraps, and the odd toy all show up.

Most of the time, that’s all it takes. Water drains the way it should, and you’re done.

It helps to know where drain cleaning stops. It handles typical clogs. Hydro jetting and rooter service use stronger methods for heavy grease buildup or tree roots, and each has its own page. If a cable can’t clear the line, that’s a sign the problem is bigger than a normal clog.

Here’s the part people miss. If several drains are slow at once, or the same drain keeps clogging every few weeks, the trouble may not be in that drain at all. It could be farther down, in your main sewer line. Cleaning the same drain over and over won’t solve that. A camera look at the line usually shows what’s really going on.

For a single clogged drain, though, drain cleaning is quick and simple. See our Drain Cleaning in Irving page for more.

Water Heater Repair Fixes No-Hot-Water Problems

Is your water lukewarm, or did it go cold altogether? Is the tank rumbling or popping? Before you start shopping for a new unit, know this: plenty of water heater problems can be fixed.

Water heater repair fixes an existing unit. Water heater installation covers new or replacement systems when repair isn’t practical. Knowing which one you need takes a real diagnosis, not a guess.

A technician checks the parts most likely to fail. On a gas unit, that might be the thermocouple, a small safety sensor that tells the burner it’s OK to stay lit. On an electric unit, it’s often a heating element or thermostat. Sediment is common too. North Texas hard water leaves minerals at the bottom of the tank, and that layer causes popping sounds and slower heating.

One sign usually points the other way. If water is leaking from the tank itself, not a fitting or valve, repair often isn’t an option anymore. We’ll tell you straight either way. An honest diagnosis is worth more than any part we could sell you.

Water Heater Installation Sets Up New Systems

Water heater repair keeps an existing unit running. Water heater installation is for when it’s time for a new one, because the old tank is leaking, worn out, or can’t keep up with your household anymore. It also covers adding hot water to a new space, like an addition or a converted garage.

The biggest part of water heater installation is getting the size right. Too small, and the last person in the shower gets cold water. Too big, and you’re heating water nobody uses. A technician looks at how many people live in your home, how many bathrooms you have, and when you use the most hot water.

Then comes the setup. That includes the water connections, the relief valve that lets off pressure if the tank gets too hot, proper venting on gas units, and making sure everything meets code. These details aren’t exciting. They’re what keep the unit safe and working the way it should.

Tankless water heater installation and gas water heater installation each have their own pages if you want to compare options. Start with our Water Heater Installation in Irving page.

Slab Leak Repair Addresses Leaks Under the Foundation

Irving sits on clay soil that swells after a good rain and shrinks in a dry summer. Nearly every home here is built slab-on-grade, with water lines running under or through the concrete. When the ground shifts, those pipes take the stress. That’s why slab leaks are more common here than in parts of the country where homes have basements.

A slab leak is hard to catch because you can’t see it. Watch for these signs:

• A water bill that jumps for no clear reason
• A warm spot on the floor, often from a hot water line
• Low water pressure that came on suddenly
• The sound of running water when everything’s off
• Damp carpet or cracked flooring

Slab leak repair starts with finding the leak exactly. Specialized detection gear pinpoints the spot before anyone breaks concrete. Guessing would mean tearing up more floor than you need to. Once the leak is found, the technician repairs or reroutes the line based on the leak and the pipe’s condition. Our slab leak detection work relies on the same pinpoint approach, so you never pay to open up more floor than necessary.

Water under your slab won’t fix itself.

Sewer Line Repair Fixes Damaged Underground Pipes

A soggy patch in the yard that never dries out. A sewage smell near the cleanout. Toilets that gurgle when the washer drains. These usually point to trouble in your sewer line, the underground pipe that carries waste from your home out to the city main.

Sewer line repair fixes a damaged pipe. That could be a crack, a section that’s collapsed, or a joint that tree roots have forced their way into. It’s different from sewer cleaning, which clears a blockage in a line that’s still intact. And trenchless sewer repair is a no-dig method for the same type of fix, so it has its own page.

The first step is a sewer camera inspection. A camera goes into the line and shows the damage on a screen. You see what the technician sees. Then you can choose a repair with real information in hand, not a hunch.

Older homes in Irving often have sewer lines made of clay or cast iron, and those materials crack or corrode with age. Shifting clay soil adds stress on top of that. You’ll find more on our Sewer Line Repair in Irving page.

Burst Pipe Repair Stops Active Water Damage

A burst pipe in North Texas usually isn’t a sign your plumbing was bad. Most of the time, it’s the weather. When a hard freeze rolls through, water in exposed or poorly insulated lines freezes and expands until the pipe splits. Think attic lines, outside walls, and pipes near the garage.

Often you don’t notice until it thaws and water starts pouring out. Burst pipe repair handles a fully ruptured pipe. Plumbing leak repair is for slower, gradual leaks, like a drip under a sink or a seep at a fitting. A burst pipe is the one that can soak a ceiling or flood a room in minutes.

Speed matters most here. The first job is shutting off the water. Then the technician finds the break, cuts out the damaged section, and replaces it. If the freeze hit more than one spot, they’ll check your other exposed lines too, since one break is often not the only one.

The best protection is a little prep before a freeze. Drip the faucets on outside walls and open the cabinet doors under your sinks. But if a pipe bursts anyway, shut off the main and call us. Details are on our Burst Pipe Repair in Irving page.

Toilet Repair Fixes Running, Clogged, or Leaking Toilets

Some toilet problems you can handle yourself. If the toilet keeps running after a flush, jiggling the handle or adjusting the chain sometimes does the trick. A plunger takes care of most one-time clogs. Toilet repair is for when those quick fixes don’t hold.

A technician replaces the worn parts inside the tank or the seal underneath it. Common jobs include:

• A flapper or fill valve that lets water run nonstop
• A failed wax ring that leaks at the base
• A loose or rocking toilet
• Clogs that keep coming back

A running toilet doesn’t look like a big deal, but it wastes water every hour of the day. A leak at the base is worse. Water seeps into the subfloor, and that’s when you start seeing soft spots or stains around the toilet. When a toilet needs a full swap instead of a repair, toilet installation covers that work.

If your toilet clogs often even with normal use, mention it when you call. Repeat clogs sometimes trace back to the drain or sewer line, not the toilet itself. Find out more on our Toilet Repair in Irving page.

Gas Leak Detection Finds Hidden Safety Hazards

Safety comes first here. If you smell a strong rotten-egg odor in your home, get everyone outside, don’t flip any switches, and call your gas company or 911 from a safe distance. Once the immediate danger is handled, gas leak detection finds out where the leak is coming from.

Gas leak detection uses testing equipment to track down the source. It might be a loose fitting, a corroded section of pipe, or a worn connector behind an appliance. Some leaks are easy to smell. Others are faint and only show up as a hiss near a line or a gas bill that’s higher than it should be.

Once the leak is found, it can be shut off and repaired through gas line repair, or a full gas line installation if the old line can’t be saved. On the plumbing side, that covers your gas supply lines and the connections to appliances like a gas water heater, stove, or dryer. If the problem traces back to your furnace, that work moves over to our HVAC team.

A faint smell that turns out to be nothing is always worth the call, compared to ignoring one that isn’t. Our technicians test the lines, show you what they found, and walk you through the fix. See our Gas Leak Detection in Irving page for more.

Repiping Replaces Aging or Failing Pipe Systems

Pipes don’t last forever.

Many Irving homes built decades ago still have their original galvanized steel or early copper piping. Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside out. Over time, that rust narrows the pipe and cuts your water pressure. Older copper can thin out and spring pinhole leaks.

The signs tend to show up slowly. You get leaks in different spots, weak pressure at several faucets, or brown water when you first turn on the tap. When repairs keep stacking up, repiping is often the more sensible move than patching one section at a time.

Repiping replaces old lines with modern materials like PEX or new copper. It can be whole-home or partial. A partial job targets the worst sections, while whole-home repiping swaps out the entire system at once. Newer subdivisions around Las Colinas usually have modern pipe already, so repiping comes up most in the city’s older neighborhoods.

A good repiping plan starts with a look at what you’ve got and where it’s failing. From there, you decide how far to go. Learn more on our Repiping in Irving page.
