What affects plumbing in Texas
Water
Water is hard across most of the state and very hard in San Antonio and West Texas.
Homes and pipes
Slab foundations on expansive clay are the norm, so slab leaks and broken under-slab drain lines are common, and water heaters are often installed in attics.
Common problems
- Slab leaks
- Under-slab cast iron drain failure
- Burst pipes in hard freezes

Texas plumbing questions
Who licenses plumbers in Texas?
Plumbers are licensed by the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. Ask for the license number and confirm it with the issuing agency before work starts.
What are the most common plumbing problems in Texas?
The problems plumbers are called for most in Texas are slab leaks, under-slab cast iron drain failure and burst pipes in hard freezes.
When do plumbing problems peak in Texas?
Summer drought and heat shrink the clay and stress slabs and sewer lines, and the occasional winter storm, as in February 2021, bursts pipes statewide because plumbing runs through attics. Knowing how to shut off the water at the meter is essential before a freeze.
