Water & Gas Lines

Water & Gas Lines

Gas lines are important to locate within your home, especially when you are remodeling. Most home inspectors will check if gas lines are properly capped off or connected to an appliance. A gas line plumber can help with new connections in the home and check for leaks and repairs.


Water lines refer to the underground pipes that run from the water main (at the street or curbside) to below the slab foundation and up through the home. Water lines bring potable water into the home and a water meter measures overall usage.


Many homeowners are surprised to learn that water line leaks and repairs in the yard are their responsibility and not the city or utility company. Out of sight and out of mind, underground water lines that leak or break are an emergency that can result in very expensive and serious damage.

Water Leak Detection & Repair

Water lines that run through your yard can be made of copper or different types of plastic. Copper is a tried and true material for water lines, but it definitely has its weaknesses. Pinhole leaks and weak solder connections are common modes of failure, often caused by poor installation practices.


Plastic water lines can either be extremely sturdy and reliable, or a disaster waiting to happen. This all depends on the specific type of material. Most modern homes are built with plastic PEX water lines, which are very reliable. However, different fittings and fasteners manufactured for them have varying degrees of trustworthiness.


It doesn’t matter what type of material your water lines are made of - Plano Plumbers has all of the tools needed to locate and repair leaks in your yard or house.

Slab Leaks

Plenty of homes are built on a slab foundation, which poses challenges for accessing plumbing. Pinhole leaks in copper water lines and broken sewer piping under the slab can result in extreme foundation damage if not corrected quickly.


Our team at Plano Plumbing has extensive training and experience repairing slab leaks. While some plumbers take the approach of jackhammering the slab every time to fix leaks, we take a more thought out approach and go through all of the different repair options that we have available to us, and discuss the pros and cons of each.
