Safety and scope noteFor a major active water release, protect people first. Use a known, safely accessible customer-side shutoff only when appropriate, and stay out of standing water near electrical equipment.
What may be evaluated
The next step depends on the actual conditions.
Review accessible conditions
Observe accessible fixtures and nearby visible plumbing for operating symptoms, moisture, drainage behavior, shutoff access, and signs that may help narrow the scope.
Narrow the next step
Where appropriate, check relevant water-use clues supplied by the customer, such as a meter change while water is not being used or the result of a toilet dye test. These clues indicate a possible leak but do not establish its source.
Explain options and requirements
Discuss observations, constraints, and possible next steps after the site conditions are reviewed. A final diagnosis, work scope, price, schedule, and permit requirement should not be assumed before that review.
Prepare the request
Useful details make the first conversation better.
Do not take a photo or gather information if doing so would put you near water, sewage, gas, electricity, traffic, or another unsafe condition.
The full service address, contact information, and confirmation that access can be provided; requests are address-qualified across the stated counties.
Which fixture, room, or area is affected; when the problem began; whether it is constant or intermittent; and whether more than one fixture is involved.
Photos or short video of visible water, staining, fixture behavior, drain backup, meter reading, or error messages, when it is safe to capture them.
Any steps already taken, including whether a fixture or main water shutoff was turned off, whether plunging or cleaners were used, and whether a utility has interrupted service.
Relevant property details, such as home type, approximate age of the affected fixture or appliance, prior repairs, recent construction, and whether the property is owner-occupied or tenant-occupied.

Residential Plumbing questions
Need help with a specific situation? Call or text and describe what is happening.
(469) 734-0431What residential plumbing problems should I mention when I request service?
Share the symptoms rather than trying to name the cause: where water is appearing, which fixtures are affected, when it started, whether the issue is constant, and whether there are slow drains, backups, running toilets, pressure changes, odors, or unusual water use. Photos and a meter reading taken during a no-water-use period can be useful when safely available.
Can a running toilet or dripping faucet be a sign of a leak?
It can be. EPA identifies worn toilet flappers, dripping faucets, and leaking valves among common household leaks. A toilet dye test or water-meter check may show that water is being lost, but those checks do not determine the source or the needed repair.
What will be evaluated during a residential plumbing visit?
The affected fixture or area, accessible visible conditions, water or drain behavior, and the details you provide may be reviewed. What can be determined, proposed, or priced depends on the home and conditions observed; do not promise a diagnosis or fixed price before the evaluation.
Do you serve my address outside McKinney?
Requests may be accepted for addresses in Collin, Dallas, Denton, Rockwall, Hunt, Kaufman, and Tarrant Counties. Availability should be confirmed using the specific property address and request details, rather than assumed for every location in a county.
Should I request plumbing service if I smell natural gas?
No—treat a suspected gas leak as a safety emergency. Leave the area immediately and, from a safe distance, call 911 and Atmos Energy at 866-322-8667. Do not wait for a routine service visit or assume another person has reported it.
