What Are the Signs of a Plumbing Leak?

Detecting a plumbing leak early can save you from costly repairs down the line. A small leak could lead to bigger issues like mold or structural damage. We offer expert plumbing leak repairs, so let us know immediately if you notice any of these signs of problems:

  • Unexplained increases in your water bill
  • Damp or musty odors in your home
  • Water stains on walls or ceilings
  • Low water pressure in taps or showers

Wet spots on floors or around the foundation

How Do You Handle Emergency Plumbing Issues?

Plumbing emergencies, like burst pipes or overflowing toilets, often happen at the most inconvenient times. No matter how big or small the issue, we’re here to help Arizona residents with fast, reliable solutions around the clock. Here’s how it works:

  • Contact our emergency line
  • Describe your issue

Our licensed plumbers will arrive promptly with all the tools needed to fix the problem

Do You Offer Drain Cleaning Services?

Yes. If you’re dealing with a slow or clogged drain, our professional drain cleaning services will clear the blockage quickly. We use advanced equipment like high-pressure water jets to eliminate grease, debris, and even tree roots clogging your drain. Regular drain cleaning is essential to prevent buildup and avoid costly repairs in the future, so add it to your home maintenance checklist.

What’s the Difference Between a Water Softener and an RO System?

Water softeners and reverse osmosis systems both improve water quality, but they serve different purposes. Many of our customers install both for optimal water quality inside their homes. Here’s what each does:

  • Water Softener – Water softeners remove minerals like calcium and magnesium that cause hard water. This extends the life of appliances and plumbing fixtures while making skin and hair feel softer after showering.
  • Reverse Osmosis (RO) System – This solution uses a filtration process to remove contaminants like chlorine, lead, and bacteria from drinking water. It delivers purified, safe water that’s perfect for drinking and cooking.

What Is a Sewer Line Inspection and When Is It Necessary?

A sewer line inspection uses a small camera to check the condition of your sewer pipes. We recommend it if you notice frequent clogs, backed-up drains, or foul odors. Sewer inspections can reveal problems like blockages, cracks, or tree root intrusion. Catching these issues early can save you from expensive repairs or even a full sewer line replacement.

What Are the Benefits of an Irrigation System?

Phoenix’s dry climate makes water management essential for homeowners with lawns or gardens. Whether you’re aiming for lush landscaping or just want to simplify your watering routine, an irrigation system is a smart investment. Benefits include:

  • Consistent and efficient watering of plants and grass
  • Reduced water waste compared to manual watering
  • Improved water distribution, helping your yard thrive

What Types of Irrigation Systems Do You Install?

We proudly provide customized irrigation systems to meet every customer’s needs. If you’re unsure what’s right for you, our expert team will explain your options and suggest the best fit for your yard and budget. Among our popular options are:

  • Drip Irrigation
  • Sprinkler System

How Do I Choose the Right Irrigation System for My Property?

Choosing an irrigation system depends on factors like your yard size, landscaping needs, and water usage goals. A consultation with our team can help you make the right decision. Allegiance Water Services evaluate your property and recommend a setup that keeps your landscaping beautiful and easy to maintain. Some rules of thumb are:

  • If you have a garden, drip irrigation will save water by directing it precisely where needed.
  • Large lawns often benefit from sprinklers due to their wide coverage.

How Can I Monitor My Water Usage With an Irrigation System?

Our advanced irrigation systems allow homeowners to track water usage with smart controllers. These devices monitor weather conditions and adjust watering schedules automatically to conserve water. Smart irrigation technology can help you save on utility bills and maintain a healthy, green landscape.

Do You Offer Free Estimates?

Yes. Whether you need to install an RO system, require irrigation system repairs, or want to upgrade your plumbing, we’ll provide a free estimate so that you can plan accordingly. Contact our team right away for a free estimate, expert advice, or to schedule a service.

I had an exceptional experience with Allegiance today. My old gas water heater needs to be replaced. I called Allegiance yesterday and discussed with David who is very knowledgeable, transparent and told me pros and cons among the different water heaters. I decided to go with 50 gallon Bradford White water heater. Ruben came in next day and clearly explained to me what is the process. He is excellent, very skillful and told me how to maintain it. He cleaned everything afterwards. I am very happy with their services and will call Allegiance for my plumbing issues for sure. Ruben from Allegiance Water Services did an excellent job again today. I had water hammer issue for a couple of months and my pipes coming out the main pipe weren't connected right by a previous plumber. The irrigation system controller needs to be replaced as well And it is now upgraded to an enabling phone control unit. Ruben did an excellent job on replacing the unit and repiping everything. It only took him an hour and they work great! Ruben is very experienced, knowledgeable and efficient. It wouldn't go wrong for Ruben to do your plumbing jobs.

Paul came today to check my Rain Bird system controller. I have worked with him during my new irrigation installation project at the beginning of this year. I was extremely pleased with the outcome then and again today. I specifically requested him for today’s job. As always, he offered excellent, professional service, knowledgeable, courteous and friendly. I would refer him and Allegiance Water Service to my friends with high remarks.

I have used Allegiance Water since 2018. The company and service is outstanding. John Gonzales was our repair person for this call. He changed our RO water filters, installed a leak detector for the RO, and repaired our water shut off valve. He was GREAT!!! He is very knowledgeable and dependable. I highly recommend Allegiance and their team. Thanks

Why should you hire Allegiance? Quality. Dependability. Customer service. Experience. Dedication. Hard work. This company takes quality experience and service to the next level. I haven’t worked with many home service companies who do such a good job like this. From the moment we got the quote, until the minute the job was done, they were reliable and they provided the service we requested. First they came out to inspect the issue. Once they figured out what was wrong, they provided a verbal quote and followed up with a digital quote. I was able to accept the quote digitally and put a deposit down to begin the work. Since our system needed to be replaced, it was quite a process and luckily they had it all under control. They contacted the city and cox communications to flag their underground items so that they knew where to avoid. Then Lawson came out and literally spent an entire day replacing the system. The customer service was above and beyond. Yes there are a million plumbers and irrigation companies out there, but there aren’t as many reputable, trustworthy, licensed and qualified ones like Allegience.

I love this business. They go the extra mile to make sure their clientele are taken care of. My hot water heater went out on New Years eve and required a part to fix it. The part was unavailable and Rheem the manufacturer was closed until Monday. John Gonzales from Allegient brought out a new unit and installed it, so that I would have hot water for the weekend. This is a great company, and I am glad that I selected them. UPDATE Allegiance is my go to water company. My house is 50 years old now, so I'm glad I have them to call if I have a problem. Rommel Valenzuela came today to service my filtration system. He was nice, professional and did a great job.

Had an issue with my sprinkler system, something failed and I had a big wet spot on the side of my house. Called in and was helped with instructions on how to turn off the sprinkler side so no water would go to it until a repair could be scheduled. Paul comes out and shows me the problem, we set a time and he fixes all of that, THEN while testing, just waltzes into the spraying sprinklers and dials in where the water SHOULD have been spraying, like " oh, that's the wrong direction to spray for this area..." Then he programs the whole thing to fix my already mediocre lawn and bushes, told me what to do to improve my lawn through yard care and got into his car with soaking pants and thanked ME! 10/10.
