About Stockton Plumbing in Austin, TX

Common signs include unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, warm spots on your floor, or cracks in your foundation or walls. Austin's clay soil movement makes homes particularly susceptible. We use electronic leak detection to precisely locate the leak in your water pipe with minimal disruption. Repairs often involve accessing and replacing the damaged section of pipe under the slab to prevent further damage to your home's foundation.

A leaking toilet base in Austin often starts with a failed wax seal, which is a common repair we handle. However, persistent leaks can sometimes indicate a crack in the toilet flange or, more seriously, a damaged sewer line connection beneath the slab. Our plumbing inspection will diagnose the exact cause. We'll repair or replace the wax seal, flange, or address any underlying sewer line issues to ensure a complete, long-term fix and prevent water damage to your subfloor.

Hydro-jetting is a powerful, non-invasive cleaning method that uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of your drain and sewer pipes. For Austin homes, this is especially effective at removing the grease, mineral scale, and invasive tree roots that commonly cause slow drains and backups. Unlike snaking, it thoroughly cleans the pipe walls, restoring full flow and helping to prevent future clogs. It's a key service we recommend as part of proactive sewer repair and maintenance to protect your property's plumbing system.
