Slab Leak Detection and Repair
We listen for leaks with electronic equipment, confirm the hot or cold line, and cut a small access hole. We repair the pipe with a permanent coupling, then patch the concrete and leave the floor clean.
Pflugerville is to the southeast, and we cover it with the same level of service. From leak detection to water heater replacement, we bring our expertise to your door. We make sure the job is done right and the area is clean.

Pflugerville sits southeast of Georgetown on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, where the limestone bedrock sits close to the surface and the soil is thin and rocky. The housing stock is mostly newer subdivisions with slab foundations, plus a few older farmhouses and ranch homes near the lake and the outlying acreage. The rock makes digging for repairs tougher, and the summer heat pushes water heaters and outdoor spigots hard. The town's growth has brought new construction, but the older areas still have their original pipes.
Our crew drives down from Georgetown on I-35 or Toll 130, stocked with the tools and parts for slab work, repiping, and water heater replacements. We set up a clean work area, use floor protection, and keep the job contained to the room we're working in. Since we're just up the road, we know the local water quality and the common problems in Pflugerville's slab homes, and we make sure the job is done right the first time so you're not waiting on a return visit.

Pflugerville's slab-on-grade homes sit on limestone, and pipe failures under the slab are common. We locate the leak, cut a clean access, repair the line, and patch the concrete so the floor is as good as new.
The hard, mineral-rich water in Pflugerville shortens water heater life. We replace aging tanks with efficient units, flush the lines, and make sure the new heater is properly sized for your household.
Tree roots and scale in the clay soil clog Pflugerville sewer lines. We clear blockages with a powered auger or hydro-jet, then video-inspect the line to find any cracks or bellies that need repair.
When Pflugerville homeowners update a bathroom, we handle the supply and drain lines for new fixtures, relocate pipes in slab or frame floors, and make sure everything passes inspection before the walls go up.
We listen for leaks with electronic equipment, confirm the hot or cold line, and cut a small access hole. We repair the pipe with a permanent coupling, then patch the concrete and leave the floor clean.
We drain the old tank, disconnect gas or electric lines, and haul it away. We set the new unit on a pan, connect the supply and vent, and test for leaks before we call it done.
We run a camera down the line to see what's blocking it, then use a cutter or hydro-jet to break up roots and scale. We flush the line and re-inspect to make sure it's clear all the way to the city tap.
The older core around Main Street has some original mid-century homes and small commercial buildings. Work here often involves replacing galvanized lines and updating drainage to current standards, with careful access to tight crawlspaces.
This established neighborhood off FM 685 has large family homes on slab foundations. We do water heater swaps, slab leak repairs, and drain cleanings, coordinating with HOA rules about work hours and parking.
Homes near the lake have higher water tables and sometimes sandy soil. We handle sump pump connections, backflow prevention, and outdoor spigot repairs, and we make sure any excavation is done with care for the lake's edge.
For water heater replacement or repiping, the City of Pflugerville's building inspection department usually requires a permit. Confirm with the city before starting, and your contractor will pull it as part of the job.
Many Pflugerville subdivisions have HOA guidelines about construction noise and parking. Check your HOA's rules before scheduling major work, and ask your contractor to work within those hours to avoid fines.

“I can't believe I hadn't reviewed these guys yet after all of the good work they've done for us in the last two years. I really enjoy working with RC. He's been to our house multiple times, both for bathroom remodel projects that included tub/toilet replacements, and water heater replacement. I've worked with lots of contractors, and they are one of the few that I've worked with that I trust, and consistently offer the best combination of service and pricing. No high pressure upsell's or doom and gloom stories about your plumbing; just honest dialogue about the best options for your specific situation.”
“We highly recommend Mason with Whiteaker Plumbing. He responded very quickly and arrived right on time. He assessed our leak issue and explained the problem as well as showed us what needed to be repaired. He gave us a repair cost which was very fair and reasonable and then he got to work. He was extremely professional and personable. He did a great job and cleaned up everything when he was done.”
“We had a break in the water service line at our home in Georgetown. A neighbor recommended Whiteaker Plumbing based on the great experience he had with them on several indoor and outdoor projects/repairs. Fortunately for us, Mason from Whiteaker was able to come and make the repair that same day. Mason was professional, knowledgeable, and meticulous in making the repairs. He was also friendly and happy to explain what he was doing and how it would be an improvement versus how the original service line (and attached irrigation line) had been run.”
“RC came out the day of my pipe breaking. He repaired it quickly and did an outstanding job. Thank you RC for your professionalism and expertise. This is the second time I have used Whiteaker Plumbing in 3 years and RC did both jobs with a 5 star service. I will be calling again the next time I needs plumbing work.”
“I would definitely recommend Whiteaker Plumbing. Mason the plumber was very personable & explained how things worked as he went along. He took special care to make sure everything was fine until the next day when the final hookup would be made. He cleaned up after the job & went out of his way to get the part we were missing for one of the jobs.”
