Plumber Options in Highland Park, 75205

It's no surprise that some of the most elaborate plumbing systems in Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas in general are located in the wonderful enclave of Highland Park. Below you will find plumbing tips from an expert plumber in the 75205 area.

If you wish to speak to the author, you can contact them for more info and a quote. Our goal is to show that plumbers recommended on our site know their industry and can speak about it. To join our list, a plumber must submit an essay like the following about a topic in their industry.

From their owner: Currently manufactured pipes and fittings for solvent welding on new home construction are designed to have what's called an interference fit. This makes space for the solvent cement, yet leaves no voids after the solvents have evaporated.

Sometimes, however, a poor fit can be more common than a good fit. We see this a lot in homes in the Highland Park, TX area. When a pipe by one manufacturer and a fitting by another are used together, it's easy for a joint to be far too loose for successful solvent welding. This is especially common on older homes in North Dallas.

If the fit is much too loose, after you inspect your pipes, don't proceed with solvent welding and let us help. The reason for all the care is that when you close your plumbing in behind the walls, you don't want to risk any leaks.

Other common problems:

  • Dripping faucets
  • Free-flowing toilets
  • Toilets that will not flush
  • Water heater issues
  • Grease clogs
  • Clogs in main sewer line


Plumbing contractors should carry liability insurance since the nature of plumbing repairs makes it impossible to guarantee 100% satisfaction with customers. However, some companies have better track records than others.

75205 Plumbers Best Practices and Tips


Simple plumbing checks: Check exposed pipes for signs of leaks or corrosion, which can present as rust stains or green or white discoloration around metal fittings. Corrosion can cause pipe connections to become unseated; if left too long it can lead to leaks.

What about water pressure? Low water pressure can signal a problem in the water line or a buildup of sediment. Test sinks and tubs at the faucets and remove the aerator from shower-heads and faucets to look for sediment. Check the drainage; a full swirl should be evident as the water leaves the basin. If bubbles appears instead, you may have a blocked pipe.

The most common problems that happen with a toilet are that it will run continuously after being flushed or will not flush at all. Both problems should be fixed as soon as possible by a quality 75205 plumber. After the toilet is flushed, the valve does not settle back into place, thus allowing the water to run out of the tank. Since the water never rises to a level that will send the filler float back into position, the water continues to cycle through the tank. Jiggling the handle can sometimes reset the flapper, but if the problem persists, some of the internal mechanisms of the toilet will probably need to be replaced.

If the toilet will not flush at all and the toilet tank is full, it is likely that the chain linking the handle to the flapper has become disconnected. Reconnecting the chain is an easy job but it does require you to stick your hands in the toilet tank. If the tank is empty, it is possible that the water supply valve, which is located near the floor at the back of the toilet, has accidentally turned.
