Common Problems We Solve

Plumbing issues don’t wait for the right time, and they rarely fix themselves. At 503 Plumbing & Mechanical, we’ve seen just about everything homeowners in Dallas, OR deal with. From aging water lines to root-clogged sewers and underperforming water heaters, we’re here to handle the problems that slow your home down.

Here are some of the most common plumbing problems we tackle for homeowners:

• Old Galvanized Water Lines: One of the most common issues we fix is aging galvanized piping. These old water lines gradually close off inside due to corrosion, cutting off your water flow and making showers, dishwashing, and laundry a daily headache. We replace these lines using trenchless methods whenever possible, minimizing mess and keeping your yard intact while restoring strong, consistent water pressure.
• Root Intrusion and Collapsed Sewer Lines: If your drains are slow or backing up, roots may be to blame. Many homes around here still rely on cast iron sewer lines, and tree roots love to find their way in through cracks and joints. In other cases, the pipe itself has collapsed. We inspect the line and offer the smartest fix, often trenchless, but traditional if necessary. Either way, we handle the replacement from start to finish with clean, code-compliant work.
• Failing or Leaking Water Heaters: Whether your water heater is leaking, rusting out, or just not keeping up, we specialize in full replacements. We install both traditional and tankless units and offer free water heater replacement quotes. For tankless systems, every new install includes 3 years of service priced at $1,200. We’ll walk you through the options, explain the differences, and make sure your home has reliable hot water again.
• Low Water Pressure Throughout the House: Low pressure could mean a hidden leak, or more often, a worn-out main water line. We’ll pinpoint the issue and replace your water line using directional drilling or traditional trenching, depending on your setup. Either way, we handle every part of the project, from the first inspection to the final connection, so you don’t have to coordinate with multiple crews.
• Old Fixtures That Just Don’t Work Right: From dripping faucets to loose toilets, we fix or replace fixtures with trusted brands like Moen, Delta, Kohler, and more. If it’s time to upgrade, we make the process quick, clean, and easy.
• Water Quality Concerns: We also install whole-home and point-of-use filtration systems that solve common problems like chlorine, manganese, or metallic-tasting water. If you’re on well water, we’ll customize a system that fits your unique setup.
