Utilities, permits and licensing
Texas licenses plumbers through the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners, which has an online license search. If a leak is on the street side of the meter, call Dallas Water Utilities first, since that section usually belongs to the utility. Leaks on your side are typically the owner's job.
Permit questions go to the City of Dallas Development Services department. Dallas Water Utilities draws from several reservoirs, including Lake Ray Hubbard, Lewisville Lake and Lake Tawakoni. Dallas is the largest city in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Summer highs above 100 degrees happen most years.
What Dallas housing means for plumbing
The Trinity River runs between Downtown and Oak Cliff. Spring hailstorms regularly damage roofs across the city.
Lake Highlands and North Dallas filled in mostly with 1960s and 1970s ranch homes. Galvanized supply lines in older houses narrow from the inside over decades, which is a common reason for weak pressure at one faucet but not another. Expansive clay soil is common, and foundation movement is a frequent issue.
Clay soils shrink in drought and swell after rain, which can stress underground water and sewer lines over time. White Rock Lake is a large park in East Dallas.
Before the visit
Before the plumber arrives, clear out the cabinet under the sink and make sure you can reach the main shutoff.
Note whether the problem is constant or comes and goes.

What people ask us
How long do water supply lines last?
It depends on the material. Copper can last many decades, while older galvanized pipe tends to narrow and rust. Braided connectors under sinks and toilets are worth replacing every several years.
Do you cover Bishop Arts and Pleasant Grove?
Yes, as long as a pro is available. Dallas ZIP codes 75051, 75201, 75202, 75203, 75204 and others are in range, and that includes Bishop Arts, Kessler Park, Uptown and Pleasant Grove. Share the street name when you call so we can check the right part of town.
Should I use chemical drain cleaner?
Use it sparingly, if at all. Harsh chemicals can damage older pipes and make the job riskier for the plumber who comes next. Tell them if you have already poured something in.
Is there anything local about plumbing in Dallas?
The February 2021 winter storm burst pipes in many Dallas homes. Swiss Avenue in East Dallas is a historic district of large early 1900s homes. Oak Cliff and Kessler Park have many 1920s and 1930s homes. Those details help the plumber plan the visit.
My toilet keeps running. Is that urgent?
Not usually, but it wastes water and raises the bill. A worn flapper or fill valve is the usual cause, and it's a quick repair.
Keep pets in another room while the pro works.
