Plumber in Carrollton: Plumbing Services – Emergency Repairs, Water Heaters & Drain Cleaning

A dripping ceiling, a cold shower, a drain that won’t budge. Every one of these needs a plumber, but not the same fix. If you’re looking for a plumber in Carrollton, the fastest path to a real repair starts with naming the problem right: which pipe, which fixture, and where the water’s going. That’s the idea behind this page.

Xtreme Air Services – Carrollton handles plumbing for homes and businesses across Carrollton. We work on everything from a single slow sink to the main sewer line under your yard. Our main trade is HVAC, so anything tied to your furnace or AC lives on those pages. Here, it’s all plumbing.

Below you’ll find ten core services. Each one gets a short look at what it fixes and how it’s different from its closest cousin. North Texas clay soil, hard winter freezes, and older Carrollton homes all shape what goes wrong here, so we’ll point that out where it matters. Not sure where your problem fits?

Emergency Plumbing Gets Fast Help When Pipes Fail

It’s 11 at night and water is spreading across your kitchen floor. You don’t need a menu of services right now. You need someone to pick up the phone.

That’s what emergency plumbing is for. It’s the call you make when something is going wrong right now. That could be a burst pipe, a toilet that won’t stop overflowing, a water heater that quit with a full house, or a leak you can’t track down. When you call Xtreme Air Services, our licensed, background-checked technicians answer the phone around the clock and get to you the same day.

Think of emergency plumbing as the front door. The tech’s first job is to stop the damage. That usually means shutting off the water and finding the source. Once things are under control, the actual fix might be burst pipe repair, water heater repair, or another service on this page. You don’t have to figure that part out at midnight.

Before help arrives, find your main shutoff valve if you can. In many Carrollton homes, it’s near the front of the house close to an outdoor faucet, or at the meter box by the street., knowing where that valve is before you ever need it is one of the most useful things you can do as a homeowner. See what to do while you wait on our emergency plumbing page, then call us.

Water Heater Repair Solves No Hot Water and Leaks

Is your water heater still running, just not running right? That’s where water heater repair comes in. Repair means fixing the unit you already have. It’s a different job from water heater installation, where the old tank comes out and a new one goes in.

These signs usually point to a repair call:

• No hot water, or hot water that runs out fast
• Rusty or cloudy water from the hot tap
• Popping, rumbling, or banging sounds from the tank
• Water pooling around the base

Many of these trace back to a single part, like a heating element, thermostat, gas valve, or pilot assembly. Hard water is common in North Texas. The sediment it leaves in the bottom of the tank is often behind those rumbling sounds.

Pooling water is the one to watch closely. Sometimes it’s a loose fitting or a relief valve. Other times the tank itself is starting to fail. A good repair visit tells you plainly whether a part swap will do the job or whether the tank is wearing out. We’d rather tell you that straight than patch a unit that’s near its end.

Water Heater Installation Replaces Aging or Failed Units

Water heater repair fixes the unit you have. Water heater installation is for when that unit is done. Maybe the tank is leaking from the body, it’s rusted through, or repairs keep stacking up.

A full replacement means draining and removing the old tank, setting the new one, and reconnecting water, power or gas, and venting. It’s more than dropping in a new box. The setup has to meet code. That covers the temperature and pressure relief valve, its drain line, a drain pan where one’s needed, and proper venting for gas units.

Sizing matters just as much. A tank that’s too small leaves the last person in line with a cold shower. Too big, and you’re heating water nobody uses. We look at how many people live in your home, how many bathrooms you have, and when you use the most hot water.

Here’s our honest take: sizing is the step people rush, and it’s the one you’ll feel every single morning.

We install both gas and electric units and handle the plumbing side of the job. That includes the water lines, the gas connection to the heater, and the venting. Gas work tied to your furnace belongs with our HVAC team. Get the details on our water heater installation page.

Drain Cleaning Clears Slow and Clogged Fixtures

Drain cleaning is the service for one slow or clogged drain inside your home. Think kitchen sink, bathroom sink, tub, or shower. The problem sits in the short pipe between that fixture and the bigger lines under your house.

Kitchen sinks usually clog from grease and food scraps. Bathroom drains collect hair, soap scum, and toothpaste. Tubs and showers get the worst of the hair. A tech clears the line with a cable sized for that pipe, then runs water to make sure it flows freely again.

Here’s an honest tip. If a plunger clears the clog and it stays clear, you may not need us at all. But if the same drain keeps slowing down, or the clog comes right back a week later, something is building up deeper in the line. That’s when a professional drain cleaning is worth it. We’d also skip chemical drain openers, since they can be hard on older pipes.

One thing to watch: if two or more fixtures back up at the same time, it’s usually not a single-drain problem. It points to the main line, and that’s sewer work, not drain cleaning. Read how our drain cleaning works.

Sewer Line Repair Fixes Damage to the Main Line

Drain cleaning fixes one clogged fixture. Sewer line repair fixes the main pipe that carries everything from your house out to the city line. When that pipe is cracked, sagging, or packed with roots, the whole house feels it.

Watch for these signs of main sewer line trouble:

• More than one drain backing up at the same time
• Water gurgling up in the tub when you flush a toilet
• A sewage smell inside the house or out in the yard
• Soggy or extra-green patches in the yard over the line

The first step is usually a sewer camera inspection. A small camera goes down the line, so you can see exactly what’s wrong and where. That picture decides the repair method. Some breaks need a section dug up and replaced. Others can be fixed with a trenchless method that leaves most of your yard alone. And sometimes the line only needs a deep cleaning, not a repair at all.

We like the camera step because it takes the guessing out. You see the problem on screen before anyone picks up a shovel. Get the full rundown on sewer line repair in Carrollton.

Slab Leak Repair Addresses Leaks Under the Foundation

North Texas sits on expansive clay soil. It swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries out. That seasonal movement puts steady stress on the water lines running under your concrete slab, and over time a line can crack or wear through. That’s a slab leak: a water line leaking under your foundation, out of sight.

Slab leaks are quiet. If it’s a hot water line, you might feel a warm spot on the floor. Your water bill might climb even though nothing changed in how you use water. A musty or mildew smell, damp carpet, or the sound of running water when every tap is off are other clues.

Slab leak repair is the fix itself. It’s separate from slab leak detection, which is the job of pinpointing where the leak sits under the concrete. Detection usually comes first, then repair. Depending on the spot, the repair might mean opening a small section of slab, tunneling underneath, or rerouting the line around the slab entirely.

In Carrollton, slab leaks aren’t a freak event. With the clay soil here, they’re a known regional pattern. If you notice the signs, it’s worth getting it checked sooner rather than later. Learn how slab leak repair works.

Burst Pipe Repair Stops Water Damage Fast

The temperature drops into the teens overnight. By morning, you hear water hissing behind a wall or see a stain spreading across the ceiling. That’s a burst pipe.

Burst pipe repair is the fix that comes after the water is off. Emergency plumbing gets someone to your door and stops the flow. Burst pipe repair replaces the broken section, so you can turn the water back on safely.

Texas winter freezes are a known trigger here. Many North Texas homes run water lines through attics and exterior walls, where they’re exposed when temperatures fall hard. Water expands as it freezes and splits the pipe. The break often doesn’t leak until things thaw, which is why the flooding seems to come out of nowhere.

Freezes aren’t the only cause. Old pipes can fail from corrosion, and a weak fitting can give way under normal pressure on a warm day.

Shut off your main valve first, then call. A tech will find the break, open the wall or ceiling only as much as needed, and replace the damaged pipe. If you’ve had more than one burst, it’s fair to ask whether the rest of your lines are in the same shape. See what to expect from burst pipe repair.

Toilet Repair Fixes Running, Leaking, and Clogged Toilets

Does your toilet keep running long after you flush, or need two flushes to clear? Toilet repair fixes the toilet you already have. It’s not the same as toilet installation, where the whole unit gets swapped out.

Most toilet problems come from a handful of parts. A running toilet usually means a worn flapper or fill valve. A weak flush can come from a low water level or clogged rim holes, which hard water makes worse. Water around the base points to a failed wax ring, the seal between the toilet and the floor drain. Constant clogging can mean a partial blockage in the trap or the drain line below.

A running toilet sounds minor, but it can waste a lot of water every day without you noticing.

Some fixes are simple. If you’re handy, you can swap a flapper yourself. A base leak is different. Water sitting under the toilet can soak into the subfloor, so that one’s worth having a plumber look at. We’ll tell you straight whether a repair makes sense for your toilet.

Tankless Water Heater Installation Upgrades Hot Water Supply

A tank water heater keeps a big tank of water hot all day. A tankless unit heats water only when you turn on a tap. That’s the core difference, and it’s why tankless water heater installation is an upgrade, not just a replacement.

The perks are real. You get steady hot water on demand, so back-to-back showers don’t run you dry. The unit mounts on a wall, which frees up the floor space your old tank used to take.

But it isn’t a simple swap. A gas tankless unit usually needs a bigger gas line than a tank heater, because it burns a lot of gas in a short burst. The venting is different too, and the water connections often need to be reworked., this is the part we spend the most time explaining, because cutting corners here causes problems later.

A good install starts with a look at your current gas line, your venting route, and how much hot water your home uses at once. From there, we can tell you if tankless is a good fit. Hard water matters here too. Scale can build up inside the unit, so regular flushing is part of owning one. See what goes into tankless water heater installation.

Repiping Replaces Aging or Failing Pipes

A lot of Carrollton homes were built from the 1970s through the 1990s, and many still have their original supply lines. Some are galvanized steel. Others are older copper. Both can wear out after decades of use.

Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside. The buildup narrows the pipe, so your water pressure drops and the water can come out brown. Older copper can develop tiny pinhole leaks, and once one shows up, more often follow.

Repiping replaces the supply lines throughout the house, not just one bad spot. That’s what sets it apart from a single pipe repair. If you’ve had a few leaks in a year, or your pressure keeps dropping, patching one section at a time can turn into a cycle.

A repipe often routes new lines through the attic and walls instead of under the slab. That matters here, given how the clay soil moves. The work is planned room by room, so you’re not without water longer than needed.

It’s a big job, so it deserves a careful look first. We’ll check what pipe you have and how it’s holding up before we recommend anything. Read more about repiping.
