Plumbing problems in Shreveport come with the territory. Our team knows that a large share of the city's homes were built before 1970, that the heavy clay along the Red River shifts with wet and dry spells, that the city sees freezing nights on about 35 days in an average year, and that the hard freezes of February 2021 and December 2022 broke pipes all over town. We plan every repair around those local conditions.

Drain Cleaning In Shreveport
Drain cleaning in Shreveport is one of the most common reasons people call a plumber. Slow sinks, a shower that pools, a toilet that gurgles when the washing machine drains, or sewage backing up into a tub are all drain-line problems, and they rarely fix themselves. Our plumbers start with a cable machine, and for grease, sludge or roots the line can be hydro-jetted or inspected with a camera so the cause is seen before a repair is recommended. Older neighbourhoods such as Highland, Queensborough and Broadmoor have drain lines that have been in the ground for generations, and the tall trees those streets are known for send roots into every open joint. If more than one drain is slow at once, the main line is usually the problem. Our team is fully committed to reliable drain cleaning in Shreveport. Read more
Water Heater Repair & Replacement
Water heater repair in Shreveport usually starts the same way: no hot water, not enough hot water, rusty hot water, or a tank leaking from the bottom. Our team will get your water heater repaired or replaced properly. Tank heaters typically last eight to twelve years. Shreveport water comes from Cross Lake and is on the soft side, so scale is less of a problem here than in many cities, but sediment still settles in the tank and anode rods still wear out. Our plumbers flush tanks, replace heating elements and thermostats, swap anode rods, fix pilot and igniter problems, and install new gas, electric and tankless units. We will ensure that your water heater repair in Shreveport is handled by professionals. Read more
Leak Detection & Slab Leak Repair
Leak detection in Shreveport matters because a leak you cannot see is the damaging kind. Our plumbers use acoustic listening equipment, pressure tests and thermal cameras to find leaks under slabs, inside walls and in yard lines without tearing up the whole house. A water bill that jumps, a warm spot on the floor, damp drywall and the sound of running water when everything is off are the usual signs. The clay soils of the Red River flood plain crack open when dry and swell when wet, and that movement is hard on pipes under and around a foundation. Once a slab leak is located, the choices are a spot repair, a reroute or a repipe. We are committed to making slab leak repair in Shreveport simple and reliable. Read more
Toilet, Faucet & Fixture Repair
Toilet and faucet repair in Shreveport covers the jobs people put off: a running toilet, a dripping faucet, a garbage disposal that hums, a shower valve that will not hold temperature, or a new fixture that needs installing. They are worth fixing, because a running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a month on a Shreveport water bill, and the city's own leak advice lists running toilets and dripping faucets among the most common causes of a high reading at the meter. Our team also handles toilet replacement, kitchen and bathroom fixture installation, and outdoor faucets that split in a freeze. When you need toilet repair in Shreveport, our team is ready to help.

Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
Sewer line repair in Shreveport is needed when there is a sewer smell in the yard, a patch of grass greener than the rest, or backups that keep returning. The line between the house and the city connection belongs to the property owner; the City of Shreveport does not repair private sewer lines. Our team knows the usual causes here: roots from mature trees, shifting soil, and old pipe that has cracked or corroded. Depending on what the camera shows, the repair may be a single section, a full replacement, or sometimes a trenchless method. Plumbing work in Shreveport is permitted and inspected through the city's Permits and Inspections division. Our team is focused on high-quality sewer line repair across Shreveport, Bossier City, Greenwood and Blanchard. Read more
Repiping & Gas Lines
Repiping in Shreveport becomes the sensible answer when original galvanized steel or failing copper lines leak again and again and patching no longer makes sense. Whole-house repiping in PEX or copper is a major job, and our team will give you a straight answer on whether you need it. Gas line work, including new lines for a range, dryer, water heater, generator or outdoor kitchen, is specialised work that Louisiana licenses separately, and it is pressure-tested and inspected before it goes into service. We will ensure it is handled by professionals from start to finish. Our team is committed to reliable repiping and gas line work in Shreveport. Read more
Emergency Plumber In Shreveport
Emergency plumbing in Shreveport means a burst pipe, sewage backing up, a water heater flooding the garage, or no water at all, and our team treats it that way. First, close the main shut-off valve. Shreveport water meters generally sit at the front of the property, between the edge of the road pavement and the property line, and the valve at the meter stops water to the whole house. Then call (318) 300-4894. Our team will make the situation safe and get the repair completed properly, at a fair and reasonable price. For a gas smell, leave the house and call the gas utility and 911 first. When you need emergency plumbing in Shreveport, our team is ready to help. Read more
Why Call Shreveport Plumbing & Drain
Because plumbing is local. Our team knows that a Highland house built before the 1930s is plumbed very differently from a ranch home in Southern Hills or a newer house in Ellerbe Woods. We know that Broadmoor grew up in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, that South Highlands dates to the 1920s, and that homes of those ages often still have their original drain lines. We know that a hard freeze here can drop to single digits, as it did in February 2021, and that exposed pipes are the first to split. The work is permitted and inspected where the city requires it. Reliable service and high-quality outcomes are what we strive for on every job. Our team is focused on high-quality plumbing repair across Shreveport, Bossier City, Greenwood and Blanchard.
