When something goes wrong with the plumbing in a Broussard home or commercial property, the call that matters is the one that gets a real answer. We take calls every day from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM, and we scope the job on the phone before anything is scheduled. You get the price before we book the visit, and you decide whether to move forward. That is how every call starts, whether the job is a dripping faucet or a sewer line that needs clearing.
We serve Broussard and the surrounding area for the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work. Property managers keeping rental units running, homeowners dealing with a problem that has been getting worse, and business owners who cannot afford a long shutdown all call us for the same reason: the job needs to get done and the price needs to make sense. Plumbing is the work we do.

Some plumbing problems will wait a few days. A slow drain in a guest bathroom, a faucet that drips overnight, a water heater that is taking longer than usual to recover. Those can be scheduled at a time that suits the property. Others cannot wait. A pipe that has let go, a sewer backup affecting every drain in the house, or a water heater that stopped working entirely are the calls we take as urgent, every day within our hours.
When you call about something that will not keep, tell us what is happening and we will scope it on the phone. We confirm the price before anything is booked, and we work around what the property needs. If a tenant has to stay in the unit or a business has to keep running, we talk through the access and the timing on the call so nothing is left to figure out at the door. We get to the bottom of the problem fast.
A lot of plumbing calls start at a single fixture. A toilet that keeps running, a faucet that drips no matter how far you turn the handle, a shower that will not hold temperature. These are usually contained to the fitting or the valve, and the repair is straightforward once the source is confirmed. We check the fixture first, because opening a wall to chase a leak that turns out to be a worn cartridge is a waste of everyone's time and money.
Supply lines that serve a single fixture are also in this category. A supply line under a sink, a shutoff valve that will not close all the way, a connector that has started weeping at the fitting. These are small jobs that become larger ones if they are left.
Slab-on-grade construction is the standard across this part of Louisiana, and that means supply lines and drain lines run beneath the concrete foundation. A leak under the slab can go unnoticed for months. The signs tend to be indirect: a water bill that climbs without explanation, a warm or damp patch on the floor, or a drop in pressure that has no obvious cause at the fixture.
We locate slab leaks using pressure testing and electronic detection before any concrete is disturbed. Finding the exact location first keeps the repair focused. The main sewer line is a different matter. When the line from the house to the street connection backs up, every drain in the property is affected. We clear main line blockages, run camera inspection to find the cause, and handle trenchless sewer repair where the pipe can be restored without full excavation.
Knowing where the water shutoffs are before something goes wrong is one of the more useful things a homeowner or property manager can do. The main shutoff for the house is usually near where the water supply enters the building, often at the front of the property near the foundation or in a utility area. Turning it off stops water flowing anywhere in the building.
Individual fixtures also have their own shutoffs. The valves under a sink or behind a toilet let you isolate that fixture without cutting water to the whole house. If a toilet is overflowing, the valve at the base of the supply line behind the unit is the fastest way to stop it. For a washing machine connection, the valves are on the wall behind the machine.
A small drip is easier to deal with than the water damage it leads to.
If you cannot find the shutoff or the valve will not close, call (337) 915-4289 and we will walk you through it on the phone while you wait.
Plumbing costs vary because the work varies. Clearing a kitchen drain is a different scope from locating a slab leak or repiping a house that has been extended. We do not quote a flat rate on this page because the price depends on what we find when we scope the job. What we do is confirm the price on the call, before the visit is booked, so you know what the work covers before anyone arrives.
Two things move a quote after the initial call. The first is what the fault actually turns out to be. A clogged drain that looks straightforward can turn out to be a collapsed section of pipe rather than a buildup of grease, and that is a different job. The second is access. A fitting that is easy to reach takes less time than one buried behind tile or set into a slab. When the scope changes on site, we discuss it before the work continues. Nothing additional starts until you have agreed to it. If you want the longer version, it is on our plumbing service list.
No hot water is one of those situations that makes itself known immediately. A water heater that has stopped producing, a tank that runs out faster than it used to, or water that comes out discolored from the hot faucet are all signs that something has changed inside the unit. Sometimes it is a component. Sometimes the unit has reached the end of its useful life.
We repair and replace both tank and tankless water heaters. Before recommending replacement, we check whether the fault is in a part that can be swapped out. If the unit is worth repairing, we tell you. If replacement makes more sense, we walk through the options on the call and confirm the price before anything is ordered. For properties that have been extended or reconfigured, the existing unit may no longer be sized correctly for the demand. Tankless installation is worth discussing in those cases, since a unit mounted to a wall delivers hot water on demand and eliminates the standby energy loss a storage tank carries around the clock.
Hard freezes are rare in this part of the Gulf South, but when temperatures do drop sharply, pipes in uninsulated areas, crawl spaces, or exterior walls can freeze. A pipe that has frozen and then cracked needs to be located and repaired before water is restored. We handle both the thaw and the repair, so the job is finished rather than just unfrozen.
High water tables and heavy rainfall across the region put real pressure on properties with below-grade spaces or crawl spaces. A sump pump that stops working during a rain event is not a slow problem. The signs of a failing pump include unusual noise during operation, water that is not clearing after rain, or a unit that runs continuously without cycling off. We install and repair sump pumps for both new installations and units that have reached the end of their service life.
Low pressure throughout the whole house, rather than at one fixture, often points to a pressure-reducing valve that has worn out or failed. A regulator that is no longer holding the correct setting can also cause pressure that is too high, which puts stress on every fitting in the building. We run through the diagnostics to confirm the cause before recommending a replacement.
A shower that will not hold temperature, a valve that is stiff or will not turn fully, or a mixer that delivers water at the wrong temperature despite adjustment are all valve problems rather than supply problems. We repair and replace shower valves and mixer cartridges, including units that are older or harder to source parts for. The fix is confirmed on the call before we schedule the visit.
A disposal that hums but will not spin, leaks at the mounting collar, or trips its reset repeatedly usually needs either a targeted repair or a full replacement. Garbage disposal installation covers the mounting, the drain connection, and the electrical hookup so the unit is seated and working correctly before we leave.

Call (337) 915-4289 to confirm that your address falls within our service range.
Permit and inspection requirements for larger plumbing work, such as a repipe or a water heater replacement, vary depending on the property and the jurisdiction. We confirm what applies at your address before work begins, so nothing is left to sort out after the fact.
That is something to discuss when you call. If a property manager has multiple jobs scheduled across different addresses, we can talk through how billing is handled so the paperwork matches the way the portfolio is managed.
Call (337) 915-4289 and we will work out what makes sense.
Any renovation that involves moving, adding, or removing plumbing fixtures, supply lines, or drain connections needs a plumber involved before walls close. Rough-in work sets the location of drain and supply connections, and getting that right before the finish work goes in avoids expensive corrections later. Call us early in the planning process and we can scope what the plumbing side of the project involves.
Permit requirements depend on the type of work and the jurisdiction, and they vary between properties even within the same area. Larger jobs such as a full repipe or a water heater replacement are the ones most likely to require a permit and an inspection. We confirm what applies at your specific address before the work begins, so the requirement is understood before anything is scheduled rather than discovered afterward.
Yes. We scope the job on the call and give you a price before anything is scheduled. We ask about the symptoms, the fixture or area involved, and any history with the problem, and that is usually enough to give you a clear figure. Nothing is put on the schedule until you have heard the price and agreed to it.
When a repair involves a discontinued material like polybutylene or older cast-iron fittings, we use compatible modern materials and explain the approach before starting. In some cases, replacing the affected section entirely is more practical than hunting for a matching part. We will walk you through the options on the call.
Sewer line backups and slab leaks are among the most common calls we take from this part of Lafayette Parish. Heavy rainfall and high water tables put pressure on drain lines, and slab-on-grade construction means supply lines run beneath the foundation where a slow leak can go unnoticed for some time. Drain cleaning, leak detection, and water heater work are the other calls that come in regularly. We scope all of them on the phone before anything is scheduled.
