What Plumbers in Spring Branch Ask First

Plumbers in Spring Branch ask where your water comes from, because out here there are two answers. Some houses pump from a private well, and the Comal Trinity Groundwater Conservation District, headquartered on FM 311 in Spring Branch, regulates every Trinity aquifer well in Comal County. Others are on Texas Water Company, which draws more than half its supply from Canyon Reservoir. Our shop sits in the middle of it.

What leaves the house matters too. Around Spring Branch, a home off a city sewer drains to a septic system permitted by Comal County, so a slow drain can be the house or the septic. We tell you which before anyone digs. Know where your main shutoff is, like the valve in this picture.

Spring Branch Plumbing Work, Close to the Shop

Every service we run starts here in Spring Branch.

Wells and Hot Water

Water heater repair and replacement. Spring Branch well water carries minerals into the tank, and scale wears a heater out. We fix or replace it, price first.

Water softener installation and service. On a Spring Branch well, a softener protects the heater and fixtures. We size it and service it.

Drains and Leaks

General plumbing repairs. Leaks, running toilets and dripping lines in Spring Branch homes, found first.

Hydro jetting. For a stubborn Spring Branch line, we check first that jetting is safe for your septic setup.

Fixtures and Remodels

Faucet repair and replacement. Crusted aerators and worn cartridges in Spring Branch homes, rebuilt or replaced.

Bathroom remodels and repipes. The plumbing behind a Spring Branch remodel, done by this family since 1998.

Down Highway 46

Spring Branch, River to Canyon Lake

Spring Branch was settled in 1852 by the Knibbe family beside a spring that runs into the Guadalupe River, and its post office opened in the Knibbe store in 1858. Our shop carries the same Spring Branch address, out on State Highway 46, closer to the river than to the old Spring Branch townsite.

Rebecca Creek and the Mystic Shores side toward Canyon Lake are farther, 26 to 35 minutes from the shop, and we still come. Anywhere in Spring Branch there is no charge to come out, and you get a price before any work. Tell us your road when you call, and we will tell you honestly how soon the truck can be there.

Straight Answers

Spring Branch Plumbing FAQ

Is My Spring Branch House on a Well or Water Company Water?

It can be either: a private well or Texas Water Company's Spring Branch system. If you get no water bill, the house is on a well.

Who Regulates Wells in Spring Branch?

The Comal Trinity Groundwater Conservation District, on FM 311 in Spring Branch. We handle the plumbing inside the house.

Do I Need a Softener on Spring Branch Well Water?

Often, yes. Hard well water scales a water heater. We test first and recommend a water softener only if it needs one.

Can You Help When a Spring Branch Septic Drain Backs Up?

Yes, with the plumbing in the house. If the septic system itself is the trouble, we tell you so.

Yes. Rebecca Creek and Mystic Shores are 26 to 35 minutes out, and you get an honest time.

What Does a Visit Cost in Spring Branch?
