Plumbing Emergency? Start Here
What to Do in the First 30 Minutes
Act fast and a plumbing emergency stays a repair, not a renovation. Find your situation below, take the safe first step, then call us — we answer 24/7.
Active water leak
- 1Close the nearest fixture stop, or the main shut-off if you can't stop it there.
- 2Keep water away from outlets, appliances, and the electrical panel.
- 3Photograph the source once it's safe.
- 4Call before anyone opens a wall, ceiling, or concealed line.
Sewer backup
- 1Stop all water use in the house — every flush adds to the backup.
- 2Keep people and pets away from the sewage.
- 3Don't plunge a main-line backup; it can spread contamination.
- 4Call right away — we treat backups as health-hazard emergencies.
Water heater failure
- 1Shut off water to the heater (and the main if it's leaking heavily).
- 2Turn a gas unit to 'pilot,' or switch off the electric breaker to it.
- 3Keep the area clear if you smell gas — then leave and call from outside.
- 4Call for repair-or-replace guidance with real numbers.
Suspected slab leak
- 1Watch for a warm floor spot, a spiking bill, or running-water sounds.
- 2Don't let anyone break the slab to 'go look' first.
- 3Note when it started and which fixtures are affected.
- 4Call for leak detection before any concrete is opened.

Why Local Knowledge Matters
Cibolo's Water, Soil & Weather Shape Your Plumbing
These are plausible local mechanisms, not automatic diagnoses — we verify the actual cause on site near landmarks like FM 1103, Cibolo Parkway, and the creek corridors before recommending work.
Hard Edwards Aquifer water
Local water hardness is estimated around 150–238 ppm. That mineral load builds scale that shortens water-heater life and clogs fixtures — which is why softening and regular flushing pay off here.
Expansive clay soil
Cibolo's clay swells and shrinks with moisture. That movement can stress slab-embedded pipe, so we confirm a slab leak with detection before anyone opens concrete.
Live-oak & pecan roots
Mature trees in older neighborhoods send roots toward the small gaps in aging clay sewer laterals. A camera inspection shows whether roots — not just a clog — are the real cause.
Storm drainage & flooding
With roughly 32.75 inches of rain a year (heavier in May, June, September, and October) and low-lying corridors near Town Creek and Cibolo Creek, drainage and backflow protection matter for many homes.

Honest, Upfront Pricing
What Plumbing Costs in Cibolo — and What Changes the Quote
Most competitors promise “upfront pricing” but publish no numbers. Here are honest San Antonio-area planning ranges so you can budget. They're ranges, not quotes — an inspection sets the final line-item price, always in writing before we start.
Service labor
- Standard service
- $70–$135 / hour
- Emergency / after-hours
- $140–$275 / hour
We quote the price before we begin — even at 2 a.m.
Common jobs (planning ranges)
| Service | Typical range | What moves the price |
|---|---|---|
| Drain cleaning | $85–$300 | Varies by fixture, blockage location, and cabling vs. hydro jetting |
| Sewer camera inspection | $100–$450 | Depth and length of the line, and access to a cleanout |
| Slab-leak detection | $150–$400 | Priced by the tools the symptom requires; repair is separate |
| Tank water heater (installed) | $800–$2,300 | Capacity, fuel type, and any code or venting upgrades |
| Tankless water heater (installed) | $1,500–$4,500 | Gas and venting upgrades a conversion often needs |
Cibolo permit fees we handle
Some work requires a city permit — we pull it and do the job to code. Examples:
- Base plumbing permit$75
- Replacement water heater$25
- Water softener$25
- Under-slab plumbing repair$60
- Residential underground waterline$15
- Residential sewer work$15

Water Damage & Insurance
The First 48 Hours After Water Damage
When water is in your home, the clock matters. We stop and repair the plumbing source, then help you document everything and coordinate with a water-restoration partner — so your claim has what adjusters ask for.
Coverage depends on your policy, the cause, and exclusions — we never promise claim approval, but we give you the plumbing documentation to file with confidence.
- 1
Stop the source & stay safe
Shut off the water, and keep away from standing water near electrical equipment. Safety before cleanup.
- 2
Photograph everything first
Document every affected room, material, appliance label, serial number, and the visible source before you move anything.
- 3
Start drying within 24–48 hours
Consistent with EPA guidance, begin drying clean water damage within 24–48 hours to reduce mold and material-damage risk.
- 4
Contact your insurer per your policy
Report the loss the way your policy requires. Keep receipts and a written inventory of damaged items.
- 5
Get plumbing & restoration documentation
Ask for a written scope of the plumbing cause and repair. Professional water-damage restoration follows the ANSI/IICRC S500 standard and is separate from the plumbing fix.

What Your Neighbors Say
Rated 4.9★ by 327+ Local Customers
“Our water heater died on a Sunday and they were at the house within the hour. Explained the repair-vs-replace math honestly and had hot water back that afternoon. No upsell, fair price.”
“Recurring sewer backup that two other companies just kept snaking. These guys ran a camera, found the root intrusion, and lined the section. Problem finally gone. Wish I'd called them first.”
“PCS move and needed an older home checked before closing. Thorough inspection, cameraed the drains, and caught galvanized pipe the general inspection missed. Saved us from a huge surprise.”
“Warm spot on the tile turned out to be a slab leak. They located it exactly and rerouted the line instead of jackhammering my floor. Professional and clean the whole way.”
“Burst pipe flooded the laundry room. They walked me through shutting the water off on the phone, showed up fast, fixed it, and documented everything for my insurance. Lifesavers.”
“Added a whole-home softener and it's night and day. No more crusty fixtures and the water actually feels different. They sized it right and the install was spotless.”

Cibolo Plumbing FAQs
Close the nearest fixture stop, or the main shut-off if you can't stop it at the fixture. Keep water away from electrical equipment, photograph the source when it's safe, and call before anyone opens a wall, ceiling, or slab. If you smell gas, leave the home first and call from outside.
We answer 24/7 and target a 60-minute response across the Metrocom core — Cibolo, Schertz, Selma, Universal City, Converse, and Live Oak. Actual arrival depends on your location, traffic, and call volume, and we'll give you an honest ETA when you call (831) 290-4327.
Call immediately when sewage is backing up, several fixtures are affected at once, or the backup is rising. Stop all indoor water use, keep people and pets away from the sewage, and don't plunge a main-line backup — that can spread contamination. We treat backups as health-hazard emergencies.
As planning benchmarks, San Antonio-area standard labor runs about $70–$135/hr and emergency labor about $140–$275/hr. Drain cleaning commonly falls between $85–$300, camera inspection $100–$450, slab-leak detection $150–$400, tank water heater installation $800–$2,300, and tankless $1,500–$4,500. These are ranges, not quotes — you always get a written price before work begins.
Some work needs a city permit, and we pull it. Cibolo examples include a $75 base plumbing permit, about $25 for a replacement water heater, $25 for a water softener, $60 for under-slab plumbing repair, and $15 each for residential underground waterline and sewer work. Verify the current city schedule, and ask who pulls the permit before work starts.
Snaking opens or removes a blockage; hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour grease, scale, and root mats off the full pipe wall. We recommend jetting when clogs keep returning and the pipe is in suitable condition — and we run a camera inspection first to confirm the pipe can take it.
It's commonly near the water entry point — by the meter at the street, in the garage, in a utility room, or on an exterior wall. The exact spot differs by home, so if you're not sure, call us and we'll help you find it, then label it during the visit so you're ready next time.
Coverage depends on your policy, the cause, and its exclusions. Photograph the damage, contact your insurer per your policy, begin safe drying within the EPA's 24–48-hour window, and request written plumbing and restoration documentation. We provide the plumbing records adjusters ask for, but we never promise claim approval.
