Our bespoke preventative maintenance programs are specifically engineered to combat the unique environmental stressors of the Louisiana Gulf Coast, including high humidity, potential storm damage, and mineral-heavy municipal water. Our comprehensive annual inspection includes rigorous testing of water pressure regulators, mandatory backflow preventer certification (essential near waterways), and a full system flush to mitigate sediment buildup, which is a common issue for water heaters in this region. We utilize endoscopic cameras to inspect drain lines for early signs of tree root intrusion—a frequent problem in the area’s moist soil—and check foundation penetrations for post-storm integrity. This proactive defense strategy significantly reduces the risk of unexpected failures, minimizes potential water damage from leaks, and ensures the efficient, code-compliant operation of your entire plumbing infrastructure, saving property owners from costly, disruptive emergency interventions. Furthermore, regular professional maintenance extends the lifespan of expensive fixtures and appliances like garbage disposals and reverse osmosis systems, protecting your long-term investment. Our plan members receive priority scheduling and substantial discounts on repairs, ensuring you have the highest level of reliable support when you need it most. We provide detailed, electronic condition reports after every visit, empowering you with a clear understanding of your property's plumbing health.
We provide specialized installation, repair, and replacement services for all water heating units prevalent in the Houma area, including traditional tank heaters, energy-saving tankless systems, and specialized commercial boiler apparatus. Given the corrosive nature of the local water supply and the need for reliable hot water year-round, our installation procedures are meticulous, featuring enhanced corrosion protection and compliant venting specific to humid, coastal environments. For tank units, we ensure proper sizing based on peak-hour usage, and for tankless units, we calculate accurate gas line and ventilation requirements to guarantee maximum efficiency and safety. We also handle the safe removal and disposal of old units. Post-installation, we provide comprehensive operating instructions and preventative tips to maximize the unit’s energy efficiency and longevity. We are expert certified in modern heat pump water heaters, which are an excellent energy-saving choice in Louisiana’s moderate climate, and we can advise on available federal and state rebates for these high-efficiency upgrades. Whether you require a high-capacity system for a multi-tenant property or a simple, reliable unit for a family home, our certified plumbers ensure a flawless, permit-compliant installation, complete with all necessary structural and gas line modifications, delivering continuous, dependable hot water.
Addressing the challenges posed by Houma’s flat geography and high water table, our drainage and sewer remediation services are unparalleled. We specialize in hydro-jetting, using powerful, pressurized water to completely clear decades of calcification, grease buildup, and roots from main sewer lines and commercial kitchen drains. This cleaning process is followed by a high-definition video inspection, allowing us to map the line and definitively identify structural defects, separations, or significant blockages. Where major repair is required, we offer trenchless pipe lining (CIPP) or pipe bursting techniques, avoiding the immense cost and disruption of traditional excavation—a key benefit in densely developed areas and flood zones. Our expertise extends to lift station and sump pump installation and maintenance, which is critical for preventing basement and crawlspace flooding in low-lying Louisiana. We also provide services for septic system maintenance and conversion. Our commitment is to restore your full drainage capacity rapidly and permanently, ensuring environmental safety and preventing devastating sewage backups that are highly problematic in our climate. We provide emergency suction services and disinfection protocols following any sewage breach, ensuring a complete, sanitary recovery of the affected area.

This precise work restored full water pressure and eliminated the risk of catastrophic slab leak failure, a significant issue in Southern homes. Documentation was provided for the homeowner's insurance policy.
Provided emergency service and long-term maintenance contract initiation for a high-volume commercial kitchen near the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway.

Installed a motorized, automated backwater valve system into the main sewer lateral of a property prone to sewer backflow during high tides or heavy rainfall. This installation provides a critical defense mechanism, automatically sealing the drain line when back pressure is detected, thereby protecting the home from sewage flooding without requiring manual intervention, offering essential protection in low-lying Houma areas.
Completed the full conversion of an outdated, standard tank water heater system to a high-capacity, on-demand tankless system for a large family home.
