General Plumbing Services in Utah
Not every plumbing problem is a drain or sewer issue. Sometimes it’s a leaking pipe behind the wall, a running toilet that’s been wasting water for weeks, a faucet that won’t stop dripping no matter how hard you tighten it, or water pressure that’s dropped throughout your whole house for no obvious reason.
These are the kinds of problems that seem minor at first but get more expensive the longer they go. A small leak behind drywall can cause mold, wood rot, and structural damage before you even notice it. A running toilet can add hundreds of dollars to your water bill over the course of a year. The sooner you address it, the less it costs.
Drain Kingz provides professional plumbing repair, installation, and maintenance for homes, restaurants, commercial properties, and property managers across Salt Lake, Utah, Davis, and Weber counties. If it’s connected to your plumbing system, we can fix it.
Call (801) 335-9197Our Plumbing Services
We handle the full range of general plumbing work for residential and commercial properties. Here’s what we cover:
- Leak detection and repair. Hidden leaks waste water, drive up your utility bills, and cause damage behind walls, under floors, and around your foundation. We locate the source and fix it before it turns into a bigger problem.
- Faucet repair and installation. Whether your faucet is leaking, corroded, or you're ready for an upgrade, we handle repairs and new installations for kitchens, bathrooms, and utility areas.
- Toilet repair and installation. Running toilets, weak flushes, leaks at the base, or a toilet that won't stop cycling. We diagnose the issue and get it working properly. If the fixture is beyond repair, we'll install a new one.
- Garbage disposal repair. Jammed, leaking, or not turning on at all. We repair and replace garbage disposals and make sure they're properly connected to your plumbing and electrical systems.
- Water pressure issues. Low pressure throughout your home or at specific fixtures can point to a range of causes including pipe corrosion, leaks, mineral buildup, or problems with the main water supply. We track down the source and fix it.
- Pipe repair and repiping. Cracked, corroded, or aging pipes can cause leaks, low water pressure, and water damage. We repair individual sections or handle full repiping when the system needs it. Learn more about our piping and repiping services.
- Plumbing inspections. Annual plumbing inspections catch small problems before they turn into expensive repairs. We check pipes, fixtures, connections, water pressure, and water heater condition throughout your home. Learn more about our plumbing inspection services.
Common Plumbing Problems We Fix
Most plumbing issues start small and get worse over time. A drip becomes a leak. A slow fixture becomes a non-functional one. A minor annoyance becomes water damage and an insurance claim. Here are the problems we see most often and what they usually mean.
Dripping faucets
faucet that drips once per second wastes over 3,000 gallons a year. That’s not just a water bill problem. The constant moisture can damage your sink, countertop, and the cabinet underneath. Most dripping faucets are caused by worn-out washers, O-rings, or cartridge assemblies inside the valve. In some cases the faucet itself is corroded or outdated and a replacement makes more sense than a repair. We’ll assess what you have, explain your options, and handle whichever direction you choose.
Running toilets
A running toilet might seem like a minor annoyance, but it can waste 200 or more gallons of water per day depending on the severity. The most common causes are a worn flapper that doesn’t seal properly, a faulty fill valve, or a flush valve that needs replacing. These are relatively straightforward repairs, but diagnosing the right component matters. Replacing the wrong part means the problem continues and you’ve spent money for nothing. We identify the actual cause and fix it correctly so it stays fixed.
Slow or no hot water
Leaking pipes
Not all leaks are visible. Many happen behind walls, under floors, in crawl spaces, or beneath your foundation where you can’t see them. The signs are often indirect: an unexplained jump in your water bill, damp or discolored patches on walls and ceilings, a persistent musty smell, or mold growing in areas that should be dry. By the time these signs show up, the leak has usually been going for a while. We use professional detection methods to pinpoint the exact location of the leak with minimal disruption to your home, then repair the affected section of pipe.
Water pressure drops
Losing water pressure can happen suddenly or gradually, and the cause isn’t always obvious. It could be corroded pipes restricting flow, mineral buildup from Utah’s hard water narrowing the line, a failing pressure regulator, a partially closed main valve, or an active leak pulling pressure away from your fixtures. If the drop is isolated to one fixture, the fix is usually localized. If it’s affecting your whole house, the problem is typically deeper in the system. We trace the issue back to its source and restore proper pressure.
Frozen or burst pipes
When to Call a Plumber vs. DIY
Some plumbing fixes are simple enough to handle yourself. Replacing a toilet flapper, tightening a loose connection under a sink, swapping out a showerhead, or plunging a minor clog are all reasonable DIY tasks. If the fix is on the surface and the part is cheap, it’s worth trying on your own first.
But anything beyond the basics can get complicated fast. Plumbing systems are interconnected, and what looks like a simple repair can turn into a much bigger issue if something goes wrong. Attempting pipe repairs without the right tools can cause water damage. Installing a fixture incorrectly can lead to leaks you won’t notice until the subfloor is ruined. And any work that involves moving or modifying supply lines or drain connections needs to meet Utah plumbing code requirements.
As a general rule, call a plumber when the issue involves anything behind a wall or under a floor, when multiple fixtures are affected at the same time, when you smell gas or sewage, when water is actively leaking and you can’t stop it, or when the fix requires shutting off your main water supply. If you’re ever unsure whether something is a DIY job or a professional one, give us a call at (801) 335-9197. We’re happy to talk through it and let you know if it’s something you can handle or if we should come take a look.
