Hydrostatic Pre-Test
What it is
A pressure/level test of your under-slab drains before foundation work.
When you need it
Needed when a foundation company requires proof the plumbing is sound before they lift.
Our Services
Foundation plumbing specialists — and your everyday plumber, too
From the diagnostic testing that foundation repairs depend on to the water heater that quit this morning, we handle it.
The differentiator
How foundation testing works
Before a foundation company lifts your slab, the plumbing underneath has to be checked — and checked again afterward. Here’s the flow we run.
Most companies can’t (or won’t) do this. We do it every day.
- 1Hydrostatic pre-test
We isolate and fill the under-slab drain lines with water and watch the level. If it holds, the plumbing is sound and the foundation work can proceed. If it drops, there’s a leak to find first.
- 2Isolation
If the pre-test fails, we isolate the system section by section to pinpoint exactly where the break is — so you’re not paying to dig up sound pipe.
- 3Under-slab repair
We access and repair the failed line.
- 4Hydrostatic post-test
After the foundation lift, we re-test to confirm the work didn’t damage the plumbing and that everything holds.
What we do
Every service, in detail
Each service below is structured the same way — what it is, and when you need it — so you can jump straight to what you came for.
Hydrostatic Post-Test
What it is
The same test after foundation repair, confirming the lift didn’t crack or shift a line.
When you need it
Run after the foundation lift, as documented proof the plumbing came through sound.
Pipe & Sewer Isolation
What it is
Section-by-section testing to locate a leak precisely instead of guessing.
When you need it
When a test fails and you want to save yourself from unnecessary digging.
Under-Slab Repair
What it is
Accessing and repairing failed drain or sewer lines beneath the foundation — including cast-iron-to-PVC conversion and tunneling under post-tension foundations for older homes — with the area restored when we’re done.
When you need it
When a line beneath the slab has failed and has to be fixed on solid ground.
Drain & Sewer
What it is
Clogs, backups, camera inspections, and line cleaning for slow or stopped drains.
When you need it
When a drain is slow, stopped, or backing up — and you want the real cause found.
Water Heaters
What it is
Repair and replacement, traditional and tankless, sized right for your home.
When you need it
When you’re out of hot water, or it’s time to upgrade an aging unit.
Gas Lines
What it is
Installation, repair, replacement, and conversions for stoves, dryers, water heaters, and outdoor lines.
When you need it
You need a licensed plumber for this whenever you’re adding or moving a gas appliance, you smell gas, or a line fails inspection. Gas work done wrong is dangerous, so we pressure-test every line we touch and leave it safe and inspection-ready.
Backflow
What it is
Testing, repair, and replacement of the backflow prevention devices that stop contaminated water from flowing back into your clean supply.
When you need it
Many North Texas cities require an annual backflow test on irrigation systems and certain properties. We test, certify, and repair or replace failed assemblies so your water stays safe and you stay compliant.
Emergency & General Plumbing
What it is
Slab leaks, leak detection, burst pipes, fixtures, and the everyday work — with fast emergency response.
When you need it
When something’s leaking, broken, or just needs a reliable plumber.
