How the Services Fit Together
Most plumbing trouble in Jupiter falls into a few groups: water you cannot see, drains and sewers, hot water, fixtures, pipes and gas, water quality, and water that has already escaped. Each group has its own pages below, so you can go straight to the one that matches what you see, hear, or smell.
The groups overlap in real life. A slow drain can be a sign of a failing sewer line, and a wet floor can come from a water heater. That is why the 24/7 line starts with questions about the symptom before it sends anyone.
Finding Water You Cannot See
A water bill that rises with no change in habits, a meter that moves with everything off, or a warm patch of floor all point to a hidden leak. Leak detection uses meter, pressure, and listening methods to narrow the spot before any wall is opened.
When the trail leads under the concrete, it becomes under-slab leak repair. When the loss is between the meter and the house, water line repair and replacement covers the service line. A pool that loses more than evaporation explains is a pool leak detection case.
Match the Symptom to the Service
This guide is a first read. A technician confirms the cause before any repair starts.
| What you notice | Likely service | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Water bill jumps, meter moves with taps off | Leak detection | A hidden leak is the usual cause. |
| Warm spot on a tile floor | Slab leak repair | A hot-water line under the slab may be leaking. |
| Wet yard between meter and house | Water line repair | The service line may have failed. |
| Slow drains or gurgling fixtures | Drain cleaning | A partial blockage is building. |
| Drain clogs again within weeks | Hydro jetting | Cable cleared a hole but left buildup. |
| Sewage backs up or a camera found a crack | Sewer line repair | The lateral is damaged. |
| No hot water, or a puddle at the tank | Water heater repair | A failed element, burner, or tank leak. |
| Water pouring from a split pipe | Burst pipe repair | A supply line has failed. |
| Pump in a pit alarming, running nonstop, or silent | Sump pump repair | A float, check valve, or the pump itself has failed. |
| Wet floors, soaked drywall or carpet | Water mitigation | The structure needs extraction and drying now. |
Symptom Matches Your List?
Call the 24/7 line and describe it in plain words.
Clearing Drains and Sewer Lines
Slow drains, backups, and gurgling toilets are handled under drain cleaning. When a line keeps clogging, hydro jetting scours the whole pipe instead of poking through it.
A camera that finds damage moves the job to sewer repair, and a line failing along its length may need sewer replacement. Homes on septic tanks, common in Jupiter Farms, should read about septic tank pumping.
Sump Pumps and Ejector Pumps
Jupiter homes are mostly slab-on-grade, so a sump pump is the exception here. Condo garages, elevator pits, pool equipment pits, and some lower-level rooms may still use one, and a sewage ejector lifts waste from a bathroom below the sewer line.
A pump that runs nonstop, will not start, or sounds an alarm is a ejector pump repair call. The page explains how to tell the pumps apart and when to repair or replace.
Restoring and Replacing Hot Water
No hot water, a rumbling tank, or a puddle at the base is a water heater service call. When a tank is beyond repair, water heater replacement covers sizing and the Town permit, and service for tankless units covers on-demand units, error codes, and flushing.
Toilets, Sinks, Disposals, and Showers
Running or leaking toilets are covered under toilet repair and installation. Drips and leaks at the sink fall under faucet and sink repair, and a jammed or leaking unit is a garbage disposal repair.
Remodels such as tub-to-shower conversions are covered under shower and bathtub installation.
Burst Lines, Repiping, and Gas Work
A split supply line is an emergency. Burst pipe repair cuts out the failed section and pressure-tests the repair. When leaks keep returning, full-house repiping replaces the supply system with new PEX or copper.
New gas lines, generator hookups, and gas leak repairs are covered under gas line installation and repair. If you smell gas, leave and call 911 first.
Softeners, Filters, and Backflow
Scale, spotting, or well-water problems start with a test. Water softener installation and water filtration installation are matched to the results. Properties with irrigation or commercial connections may need backflow testing and prevention, which the Town of Jupiter tracks.
Plumbing for Businesses
Restaurants, offices, retail, and property managers are covered under commercial plumbing, including grease lines and compliance work.
When Water Has Already Escaped
The first hours of a water loss are covered under water mitigation, and the full dry-out and rebuild process is covered under water extraction and drying. Both run on a dedicated phone line, separate from the plumbing repair pages, and follow the IICRC S500 water damage standard.
How Pricing Works Across Services
Every service page lists its own cost factors and insurance notes, so read the one that matches your problem before you call.

Services Questions From Jupiter
Start with leak detection. A meter test shows whether water is escaping, and the technician narrows it to the inside, the yard, or the street side.
The cause is the same, but the repair is different. A slab leak sits under concrete, so it needs pinpointing and a choice between a spot repair, a reroute, or a repipe.
No. Plumbing repairs use the main line, while water mitigation and water damage restoration use their own dedicated line, so calls reach the right team.
Yes. Nights, weekends, and holidays all get an answer, because the emergency line never closes.
Yes. You hear the number before the repair begins and you decide whether to go ahead.
