Preventive Plumbing Care.
Year-Round Savings.

Your water bill went up last month and nobody in the house can explain why. There’s no puddle, no stain on the ceiling, and the toilets aren’t running. So you’ve decided to wait and see. We’ve spent years finding leaks under East Texas slabs, and “wait and see” is how a small repair turns into torn-out flooring and a claim with your insurance company.

Our Home Protection Plan means you don’t have to guess. Once a year, one of our licensed plumbers goes through your whole plumbing system and tells you plainly what’s fine and what isn’t.

One protection plan for your home

You pay one yearly price, and we come out once. That visit covers all three services below. You don’t pay separately for any of them, and there’s no upcharge for the camera.

  • Whole-home plumbing inspection
    We start at the water meter. With every fixture shut off, the meter shouldn’t move. If it does, water is escaping somewhere, often under the slab, and finding where is what we do best. From there we pressure-test the supply lines, check every sink and toilet for supply lines that are starting to fail, and turn each shutoff valve so it won’t seize the night you need it. In the fall we also check hose bibs and exposed pipe before the first hard freeze.
  • Sewer line camera inspection
    Your sewer line is the one part of your plumbing you can’t see, and it usually gives no warning until sewage comes back up a floor drain. We run a camera from your cleanout to the street and look for root intrusion, cracked or separated joints, and low spots where waste settles. Many older East Texas homes still have clay or cast iron sewer pipe, and the big pines and oaks in our yards send roots straight for those joints.
  • Water heater maintenance & flush
    Sediment settles at the bottom of every tank water heater. It makes the heater work harder, causes the popping and rumbling you might hear, and wears out the tank sooner. We drain and flush the tank, test the temperature and pressure relief valve, and check the connections for corrosion.

What a hidden leak costs East Texas homeowners

The EPA estimates that ten percent of homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons or more per day, and most people never see the water go. The cost of damage is worse than the cost of the water. Insurance Information Institute figures for 2019 through 2023 show one in every 67 insured homeowners filed a claim due to water damage or freezing each year, with an average claim amount of $15,400.

East Texas homes face a couple of local risks too. Most homes here sit on slab foundations, so a supply line that fails under the slab can leak for months before you notice anything. And anyone who lived through the February 2021 freeze remembers how many pipes in this part of the state burst in a single week. A fall inspection that finds unprotected lines is cheap insurance against the next one.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Home Protection Plan

The plan is a flat yearly fee of $199. That covers your inspection visit. Any repairs are quoted separately at member pricing, so you always know the cost before we start.

No. A home warranty is a contract with a third-party company that caps what it pays and sends whatever contractor is on its list. This plan is between you and us. The same local plumbers who inspect your house are the ones who show up when something breaks.

It doesn’t pay for a slab leak repair, but members get priority scheduling for leak detection and their member discount on the repair itself. More often, the yearly meter and pressure tests catch a slab leak early, while it’s still a simpler fix.

You get a written description of the problem and a price, and then it’s your call. You can approve the repair, wait, or get a second opinion. We don’t push same-day decisions.

Yes, if you can. We need to get to the water heater, the meter, and every fixture, and it helps to walk you through what we find. Most inspections take one to two hours, depending on the size of the house.

We’re based in Whitehouse and work across Tyler, Smith County, and the surrounding East Texas communities. If you’re not sure we come out your way, call with your address and we’ll tell you.
