Faq — Lyle's Plumbing Dallas

1. Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing services in Dallas?

Yes, we understand that pipes can burst or water heaters can fail at the worst times. Lyle's Plumbing Dallas is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergency services across the metroplex.

2. Why is my water bill suddenly so high?

A sudden spike in your water bill usually indicates a hidden leak. In Texas homes, this is often a running toilet, a leaking faucet, or even a hidden slab leak beneath your foundation. We offer advanced leak detection services to pinpoint the exact issue.

3. Are your plumbers licensed and insured?

Absolutely. Every plumber on our team carries the appropriate Texas plumbing licenses (Journeyman or Master) and our business is fully insured for your protection and peace of mind.

4. How often should I drain my water heater?

Due to the hard water commonly found in the Dallas area, we recommend having your traditional water heater flushed once a year. This removes sediment buildup, improves efficiency, and extends the life of the unit.

5. What should I do if my pipes freeze during a Texas winter storm?

First, shut off the main water valve to your home to prevent flooding in case the pipe bursts. Open your faucets to relieve pressure, and call us immediately. Do not attempt to thaw pipes with an open flame.

6. Is it safe to use chemical liquid drain cleaners?

We highly discourage the use of chemical drain cleaners. The harsh chemicals generate heat that can warp PVC pipes and corrode older metal pipes. It is much safer to have a professional clear the clog using an auger or hydro jetting.
