Signs You Need Plumbing Service
A sudden increase in your water bill often signals a hidden leak in a supply line, toilet, or underground pipe.
Brown or orange water from the hot side usually indicates corroded galvanized pipes or a failing water heater anode rod.
Pressure below 40 PSI at several fixtures points to a failing pressure regulator, corroded pipes, or a partially closed main valve.
A constantly running toilet can waste over 200 gallons per day and usually means the flapper, fill valve, or flush valve needs replacement.
A steady drip from a faucet wastes up to 3,000 gallons per year and typically requires a cartridge or valve seat replacement.
If more than one drain is slow, the problem is likely in the main sewer line rather than an individual fixture trap.
Moisture around pipe connections, under sinks, or near walls can indicate a slow leak that will cause structural damage and mold growth if ignored.
Sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank overheats and creates noise. This reduces efficiency and shortens the unit's lifespan, especially in hard-water areas.
Plumbing Services We Provide
Plumbing Inspection →
A thorough, code-compliant evaluation of your entire plumbing system — supply lines, drains, fixture connections, water pressure, and water heater condition. We use calibrated gauges, RIDGID SeeSnake cameras, and moisture meters to find problems hidden inside walls and under slabs. Most inspections take about an hour and include a written report with photos.
Plumbing Rough-In →
The behind-the-wall pipe work that happens before drywall goes up during new construction or remodels. Accurate rough-in prevents costly tearouts later. We set drain and supply pipe locations for sinks, toilets, showers, tubs, and laundry connections using Charlotte Pipe PVC and Uponor PEX-A, and every rough-in passes city inspection before walls close.
Emergency Shutoff Valves →
A working shutoff valve can be the difference between a minor leak and thousands of dollars in water damage. We replace corroded gate valves with modern quarter-turn ball valves from NIBCO or Watts that close instantly and reliably. Every household member should know where the main shutoff is and test it yearly.
Shower Cartridge Replacement →
A worn cartridge causes inconsistent temperature, dripping, or a handle that is hard to turn. We carry Moen and Delta cartridges on every truck and replace them in a single visit — restoring consistent water temperature and smooth operation without replacing the entire valve body.
Toilet Repair and Rebuild →
Running, leaking, rocking, or refusing to flush properly — we diagnose and fix the root cause, not just the symptom. We stock Fluidmaster fill valves, Korky flappers, and wax rings on every truck, so most toilet repairs are completed in one visit without a parts run.
Toilet Replacement →
When repair costs approach the price of a new toilet, replacement is the smarter investment. We handle the heavy lifting, the wax ring, and the connection, and we haul away the old unit. We install standard, low-flow, and pressure-assist models suited for hard-water conditions.
Faucet Installation →
Kitchen, bath, or utility — we install any faucet brand with clean, leak-free connections. Every installation includes a pressure check and leak test. We can also advise on faucet selection based on your sink configuration, water hardness, and daily usage patterns.
Garbage Disposal Replacement →
A failing disposal grinds slowly, jams frequently, leaks from the housing, or trips the breaker. We replace units from InSinkErator and Waste King, matching the motor size to your kitchen usage and drain configuration. Old unit removal and new unit wiring are included in every job.
Whole-Home Pipe Replacement →
When patching corroded galvanized or polybutylene pipes no longer makes economic sense, a full repipe with Uponor PEX-A restores pressure, improves water quality, and eliminates the risk of sudden failure. PEX-A offers superior freeze resistance, installs faster than copper, and resists scale buildup in hard-water environments.
Water Softener Installation →
Hard water above 10.5 grains per gallon shortens water heater life, scales fixtures, and makes soap less effective. We install and maintain whole-home softeners from Watts and Pentair, sized to your household's specific water chemistry, which we confirm with on-site testing before recommending equipment.
Water Quality Test →
An on-site water quality test measures hardness, TDS, pH, chlorine, and other parameters that affect your plumbing, appliances, and health. Results guide recommendations for softeners, filtration, or treatment systems matched to your home's specific water chemistry.
Water Pressure Test →
Proper residential pressure between 40 and 80 PSI protects your plumbing, appliances, and fixtures from premature wear. We use calibrated gauges at multiple points to diagnose low or high pressure, then adjust or replace the pressure-reducing valve as needed.
Hose Bib Repair and Replacement →
Outdoor hose bibs take a beating from extreme summer heat and hard freezes. We install frost-proof hose bibs with built-in vacuum breakers that meet backflow prevention requirements. A slow exterior leak through a worn hose bib can waste thousands of gallons before anyone notices.
When to Repair vs. Replace Your Plumbing
Deciding between a spot repair and a full repipe is one of the most consequential plumbing decisions a homeowner can make. A spot repair makes sense when the problem is isolated — a single corroded fitting, a cracked joint at a specific stress point, or a leaking valve. These targeted fixes cost less upfront and get you back to normal quickly.
A full or partial repipe becomes the smarter investment when problems recur across multiple fixtures, when the pipe material itself is failing systemically (galvanized steel, polybutylene), or when water quality testing shows elevated corrosion byproducts. Homes built before 1980 with original galvanized supply lines are strong candidates for repiping. Homes with polybutylene (gray or blue flexible pipe) installed between the mid-1970s and mid-1990s should be evaluated immediately, as polybutylene becomes brittle and fails without warning.
The break-even calculation is straightforward: if you have spent more than $1,500 on spot repairs in the last two years, or if a pressure test reveals multiple active or developing leaks, the cost of continued patching will exceed the cost of a repipe within one to three years. A licensed evaluation gives you the data to make that decision with confidence rather than guessing.
Galvanized Steel vs. PEX Repiping
| Feature | Galvanized Steel | PEX-A Piping |
|---|---|---|
| Typical Lifespan | 40-50 years | 50+ years |
| Corrosion Resistance | Low — rusts from inside out | High — non-corrosive material |
| Scale Buildup in Hard Water | Heavy — restricts flow over time | Minimal — smooth interior walls |
| Installation Time (3BR Home) | 3-5 days | 1-2 days |
| Freeze Resistance | Cracks easily under pressure | Flexible — expands and contracts |
| Typical Cost (3BR Home) | $6,000 - $10,000+ | $4,500 - $8,500 |
| Code Compliance | Allowed for existing installs | Preferred for new and replacement work |
| Fittings Used | Threaded iron fittings | Uponor ProPEX expansion fittings |
Plumbing Maintenance in the Permian Basin
The Permian Basin's water conditions demand a different maintenance rhythm than most of the country. Water drawn from the Ogallala and Dockum Aquifers carries dissolved calcium and magnesium at concentrations the Water Quality Association classifies as "very hard" — levels that put the Permian Basin well above the national average. That mineral content corrodes galvanized pipes from the inside, shortens water heater lifespans by two to three years, and deposits scale that restricts flow at every fitting and valve in your home.
A basic annual maintenance routine should include testing your main shutoff valve to confirm it still closes fully, checking water pressure at an exterior hose bib with a gauge (target: 40-80 PSI), inspecting under sinks and around toilets for moisture or mineral deposits, and flushing your water heater to remove sediment. If your home has a water softener, verify the salt level and check the regeneration cycle monthly.
For homes built before 1980, we recommend a professional plumbing inspection every one to two years. These older homes are more likely to have galvanized supply lines with internal corrosion, original gate valves that no longer close, and deteriorating wax rings under toilets. Catching these issues during a scheduled inspection costs a fraction of what they cost as an emergency repair at 2 a.m.

(432) 290-8511Residential Plumbing Built for Hard-Water Conditions
Residential plumbing in the Permian Basin faces challenges that most of the country never deals with. Odessa sits atop ancient seabeds that load the municipal water supply with dissolved minerals at concentrations the Water Quality Association classifies as "very hard." That mineral content corrodes galvanized steel pipes from the inside, shortens water heater lifespans, and leaves scale deposits that restrict water flow year after year. According to the EPA, the average American household wastes roughly 10,000 gallons of water per year from leaks alone.
In hard-water regions, leak risk climbs even higher because mineral buildup weakens joints and fittings faster. Resolv Services LLC holds Texas Plumbing License #42668 and has completed hundreds of residential plumbing jobs across the Permian Basin. We understand exactly how the region's water, soil, and climate affect your home's plumbing, and we size every repair or installation for local conditions.
Every Job, Done Right the First Time
We stock Fluidmaster, Korky, Moen, Delta, and SharkBite parts on every truck so most repairs finish in a single visit without a parts run. Larger projects — whole-home repipes, water softener installations, new-construction rough-ins — follow a structured process: written estimate before we start, professional-grade materials (Uponor PEX-A, Charlotte Pipe PVC, NIBCO valves), and a pressure test or flow verification before we consider the job complete. We pull permits for all code-required work and coordinate inspections so you never have to chase paperwork.

The materials a plumber uses matter as much as the work itself. We have tested and evaluated dozens of product lines over 25+ years and stock the ones that perform best in hard-water, high-heat conditions. For supply lines: Uponor PEX-A tubing with ProPEX expansion fittings — the gold standard for residential repiping.
PEX-A resists scale buildup, flexes instead of bursting during freezes, and installs with fewer connections than copper. For drain lines: Charlotte Pipe PVC and CPVC, the industry standard for residential drainage. For fixtures: Moen and Delta faucets and shower valves — widely available replacement parts and proven durability.
Fluidmaster and Korky toilet internals. InSinkErator and Waste King garbage disposals. For water treatment: Watts and Pentair whole-home softeners and filtration systems, sized to handle the extreme mineral loads found across the Permian Basin.
For valves and fittings: NIBCO ball valves, SharkBite push-fit connectors for service access points, and Watts pressure-reducing valves. For diagnostics: RIDGID SeeSnake pipe cameras, calibrated pressure gauges, FLIR thermal imaging, and Delmhorst moisture meters.
The Permian Basin sits atop ancient seabeds, and that geology directly affects your water. Municipal water drawn from the Ogallala Aquifer and the Dockum Aquifer carries dissolved calcium, magnesium, and other minerals that make it some of the hardest water in Texas. Hardness routinely runs above 250 parts per million — more than double the national average and well into the very-hard range.
What does that mean for your plumbing? Scale accumulates inside pipes, reducing diameter and restricting flow. Water heater elements and anode rods deteriorate faster, cutting tank lifespan by two to three years compared to soft-water areas. Faucet aerators clog, shower heads lose flow, and rubber seals in valves degrade.
Even dishwashers and washing machines run less efficiently. A whole-home water softener addresses the root cause, but proper plumbing maintenance — annual water heater flushing, periodic aerator cleaning, and pressure checks — remains essential even with softened water. Understanding your water chemistry is the first step toward protecting your home's plumbing investment.
Texas plumbing work is governed by the International Plumbing Code (IPC) with local amendments enforced by each municipality. Any work that modifies supply lines, drain lines, gas lines, or water heater installations requires a permit. Resolv Services handles all permit applications and coordinates city inspections as part of every qualifying project.
Key code requirements homeowners should know: water heaters must have a temperature and pressure relief valve with a discharge pipe routed to within 6 inches of the floor or to the exterior. Water supply systems must maintain a minimum 40 PSI and not exceed 80 PSI. Backflow prevention devices are required on all irrigation connections and certain appliance connections.
All drain lines must be properly vented to prevent siphoning of fixture traps. Gas line work requires pressure testing and a separate permit. We stay current on code updates and local amendments so your project passes inspection the first time.
Permit fees are included in our written estimates — no surprises.
Common Questions About Plumbing
We recommend a full plumbing inspection every two years for homes under 20 years old and annually for older homes. If your home has galvanized pipes or you notice discolored water, low pressure, or unexplained increases in your water bill, schedule an inspection right away. A $150-$275 inspection typically costs far less than the emergency repair it prevents. Call (432) 290-8511 to book yours.
Low water pressure is commonly caused by mineral scale buildup inside galvanized pipes, a malfunctioning pressure-reducing valve, a partially closed main shutoff valve, or municipal supply issues. Our technicians use pressure gauges at multiple points to pinpoint the cause and recommend the most cost-effective fix — whether that means cleaning an aerator, adjusting the PRV, or replacing a section of corroded pipe.
In the Permian Basin, yes. Odessa water carries enough dissolved calcium and magnesium to land solidly in the WQA's "very hard" category — a level that shortens equipment life, clogs fixtures, and makes cleaning products less effective. A properly sized softener extends water heater life by two to three years, reduces scale on fixtures, and makes soap and detergent work more effectively. Most homeowners see a return on their investment within two to three years through lower maintenance costs and fewer appliance replacements.
Yes. Resolv Services offers same-day and next-day appointments for most residential plumbing needs. Call (432) 290-8511 to check availability. Emergency calls receive priority scheduling 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
A typical whole-home repipe with PEX-A piping takes one to two days for a standard three-bedroom home. Galvanized-to-PEX repipes take slightly longer because removing old threaded pipe adds time. We plan access points carefully to minimize drywall cuts and patch all openings as part of the job. Your water is typically off for only a few hours during the cutover.
We recommend Uponor PEX-A tubing with ProPEX expansion fittings for most residential repipes. PEX-A resists scale buildup better than copper in hard-water areas, flexes instead of bursting during freezes, installs faster with fewer connections, and costs less than copper. For drain lines, we use Charlotte Pipe PVC, which is the industry standard for residential drainage.
Yes. Any plumbing work that modifies supply lines, drain lines, gas lines, or water heater installations requires a permit. Resolv Services handles all permit applications and coordinates city inspections as part of every qualifying project. Permit fees are included in our written estimates so there are no surprises.
Key indicators include recurring leaks at multiple fixtures, rust-colored water (especially from the hot side), water pressure below 40 PSI despite a functioning pressure regulator, and visible corrosion on exposed pipes. Homes built before 1980 with original galvanized supply lines and homes with polybutylene pipe (gray or blue flexible pipe from the 1970s-1990s) are the highest-priority candidates for evaluation.
Our full-home inspection covers supply line condition, drain line function, fixture connections, water pressure at multiple points, water heater condition and safety devices, shutoff valve operation, and visible signs of moisture or corrosion. We use calibrated pressure gauges, RIDGID SeeSnake pipe cameras, and moisture meters. You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
Absolutely. Water above 10.5 grains per gallon is classified as "very hard" and causes measurable damage over time. Scale narrows pipe diameter, reducing flow and pressure. Mineral deposits corrode valve seats, cartridges, and fittings. Water heater elements and anode rods deteriorate faster, cutting tank life by two to three years. A combination of water softening and periodic maintenance is the most effective protection.
