Common Plumbing Problems in Clovis

The same few problems show up across Clovis, because every home shares one water supply and one set of sewer rules.

Hard water scale

City water averaged 116.4 ppm hardness in 2023 and reached 280 ppm at some sources. Scale wears out water heaters, faucet cartridges and shower valves.

Water heater service →

Tree roots in the sewer lateral

Roots push into older pipe joints looking for water. In Clovis, the owner is responsible for the lateral all the way to the city main.

Sewer camera inspection →

No hot water or a noisy tank

Sediment settles at the bottom of the tank. It causes popping sounds, slow heating and early failure.

Water heater repair →

Gurgling or backed-up drains

When a flush bubbles up in the shower, the main line is usually blocked.

Main line drain cleaning →

Slab leaks under concrete floors

A warm spot on the floor, a running-water sound and a rising bill can point to a leak under the slab.

Slab leak detection →

Low water pressure across the house

This can mean corroded galvanized pipe, a hidden leak or a failing pressure regulator.

Repiping and pipe repair →

116.4PPMAverage hardness, 2023

Why Clovis water is hard on water heaters

Clovis water is hard enough to shorten the life of a water heater. It comes from the Kings River and 37 city wells. In 2023, about 53% came from groundwater and 47% from treated river water, according to the City of Clovis water quality report.

Average hardness was 116.4 ppm, with a range of 7.3 to 280 ppm. Those minerals build scale in tanks, tankless units and faucet cartridges. Flushing the tank and checking the anode rod help it last longer.

Common jobs, explained

What Common Plumbing Jobs Look Like in Clovis

These are typical calls and how they are usually handled. Every home is different, so the plumber confirms the fix on site.

Roots in the main sewer line

What you notice

Toilets gurgle and water backs into the tub when the washer drains.

How it is usually fixed

A camera inspection finds where roots get in. The line is cleared with a cutting head or hydro jetting, then filmed again.

Common in older lines, like Old Town Clovis →

A water heater leaking at the base

What you notice

Water around the tank, rusty hot water and popping sounds.

How it is usually fixed

Water and gas are shut off. A leaking tank can't be patched, so it is replaced with a new tank or a tankless unit.

Hard water speeds this up →

A hot water leak under the slab

What you notice

A warm spot on the floor and a water bill that keeps climbing.

How it is usually fixed

The leak is located without breaking up the whole floor. It is repaired at that spot, or the line is rerouted.

Good questions

Plumbing Questions from Clovis Homeowners

Answers to the questions Clovis homeowners ask most. Still unsure? Call (559) 418-4780.

(559) 418-4780 →
01 How much does a plumber cost in Clovis?

There is no fixed price for plumbing work. Cost is set after the job is assessed. It depends on the cause, how hard the pipe is to reach and the parts needed.

02 Is there a 24 hour plumber in Clovis?

Yes. Clovis Rooters takes calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at (559) 418-4780. Arrival time depends on your location, traffic and the jobs already underway.

03 Who do I call for a water leak at the meter in Clovis?

Call the City of Clovis at (559) 324-2600 for a leak on the city main or the service line up to the meter. The City states: "Leaks which are located behind the water meter are the customer's responsibility to repair." For those, call a plumber.

04 Who is responsible for the sewer line in Clovis?

The property owner is. Clovis Municipal Code Chapter 6.4 states: "Sewer service laterals shall be installed, maintained, and repaired by the owner of the property which the lateral serves." That includes the wye connection at the city main. This is general information, not legal advice. For repairs on your side, see sewer line repair.

05 Is Clovis water hard?

Yes. The City of Clovis 2023 water quality report lists average hardness of 116.4 ppm, with a range of 7.3 to 280 ppm. Over time, hard water shortens the life of water heaters and faucets.

06 What should I do while waiting for an emergency plumber?

Close the main shut-off valve to stop the water. For a leaking water heater, also turn its gas valve to off or switch off its breaker. If the sewer is backing up, stop running water and flushing toilets.

07 Do you serve Tarpey Village and Loma Vista?

Yes. We serve all of Clovis and Tarpey Village, including Loma Vista, Heritage Grove, Old Town and Quail Lakes. See plumbing in Tarpey Village and plumbing in Loma Vista for local details.
