• Slab Leak Detection

  The Problem: Slab Leak Detection

  The shifting clay soil in Jersey Village puts immense pressure on foundations and underground pipes. Copper water lines buried under your concrete slab develop stress fractures and pinhole leaks at elbows and joints after decades of expansion and contraction cycles.

  A warm spot on your tile floor, a wet carpet, the sound of running water when everything is off, or a water bill that suddenly doubles are all classic signs of a slab leak.

  The Blackmon Solution:
  We specialize in Static Isolation Testing to pinpoint leaks under the slab without guessing. This pressurized test allows us to listen electronically for the exact location of the leak—accurate to within inches. We then perform Tunneling Repairs from the exterior of your home, excavating under the foundation from outside to access and replace the damaged pipe section. This preserves your interior tile, carpet, and baseboards—critical for Jersey Village homes where flooring replacement would be expensive and disruptive.

• Aging Copper & Galvanized Systems

  The Problem: Aging Copper & Galvanized Systems

  Many Jersey Village homes built in the 1970s-1980s still have their original copper water lines or even older galvanized steel pipes. The clay soil movement stresses copper until it develops multiple pinhole leaks throughout the system—not just under the slab, but also in walls and the attic. Galvanized pipes corrode from the inside, reducing water pressure to a trickle and discoloring your water with rust.

  The Blackmon Solution:
  We perform Whole-Home PEX Repiping to modernize homes with flexible PEX piping that can withstand the shifting soil better than rigid copper or galvanized steel. PEX is also faster to install (typically 1-2 days) and more affordable than copper. We install central manifold systems with dedicated PEX lines to each fixture—no joints behind walls, dramatically reducing future leak risk.

• Sewer Line Settlement & Root Intrusion

  The Problem: Sewer Line Settlement & Root Intrusion

  Jersey Village’s mature neighborhoods feature beautiful oak and pine trees that provide shade and character—but their roots are aggressive seekers of moisture. When roots find your sewer line (especially older clay or cast iron pipes), they invade through joints and cracks, growing rapidly inside the pipe until it’s completely blocked.

  Additionally, the clay soil settlement can cause PVC sewer lines to develop “bellies” (dips or low spots) where waste collects instead of flowing.

  The Blackmon Solution:
  We use high-definition sewer camera inspections to identify exactly where roots have invaded or where the line has bellied. For root intrusion, we can clear with Hydro-Jetting (high-pressure water that scours roots from pipe walls) or mechanical cutting. For bellied sections, we perform targeted excavation to expose and re-grade the pipe to proper slope. We perform permanent repairs—we do not use temporary trenchless patches that can fail under shifting soil conditions.

• Water Heater Failures

  The Problem: Water Heater Failures

  Jersey Village’s suburban family homes demand significant hot water—multiple bathrooms, washing machines, dishwashers running simultaneously. When a water heater fails (typically after 10-12 years), it’s an emergency that disrupts the entire household.

  The Blackmon Solution:
  We carry 40 and 50-gallon tanks on our mobile warehouses for same-day emergency replacements. We can also install tankless water heaters for families who need endless hot water for multiple showers running at once. We ensure proper venting, gas pressure, and code compliance for all installations.
