24/7 Emergency Plumbing Repair in Highlands Ranch

When a supply line bursts behind a wall or a sewer line backs up into the basement, you need help before the damage spreads. Allen Service has 24 hour plumbers available for emergency calls in Highlands Ranch, including nights and weekends. While you wait, close the main shutoff valve if you can reach it safely and keep everyone away from standing sewage.
Our Plumbing Services in Highlands Ranch
The first Highlands Ranch homes went up in 1981, so the plumbing we see here ranges from original 1980s supply lines to newer PEX systems. Our residential plumbers and commercial plumbers handle repairs, replacements, and installations, along with cleanup when a leak has already done damage.
Drain Cleaning
Hard water minerals combine with soap and grease to narrow drain lines over time, which is one reason a sink or tub can slow down again a few months after a quick fix. Our drain cleaning service clears the clog and checks for buildup or blockages farther down the line.
Plumbing Repair
Running toilets, dripping faucets, and leaking shutoff valves are common in homes that have been through a few decades of hard water. Allen Service repairs leaks, valves, and fixtures, and handles clogged toilet repair when a plunger isn’t enough. We explain what failed and why before making the fix.
Plumbing Replacement
Scale wears out faucet cartridges, fill valves, and showerheads faster than many homeowners expect. When a fixture is no longer worth repairing, our plumbers handle toilet replacement, faucet and valve upgrades, and plumbing installation for remodels. For a bathroom project, we can serve as your bathroom plumber from new supply lines to finished fixtures.
Plumbing Maintenance
A yearly plumbing check is a practical habit in a hard-water community. Our plumbers look over the water heater, shutoff valves, supply connections, and visible piping, and point out scale, corrosion, or slow leaks before they lead to a larger repair.
Commercial Plumbing
Offices, retail centers, and restaurants in Highlands Ranch need restrooms and kitchens that keep working through the day. Allen Service’s commercial plumbers handle repairs, fixture replacement, and maintenance, and can help property managers plan replacements before equipment fails.
Repiping Services
A pinhole leak in a ceiling or a burst fitting under a sink can be a sign that it’s time to look at the pipe itself. In Highlands Ranch homes from the 1980s and early 1990s, that may mean polybutylene, a gray plastic supply line common in that era. We identify what your home has and explain whether a section repair or a whole-home repipe makes more sense.
Sewer Line Services
Trees in Highlands Ranch’s older neighborhoods have had decades to grow, and their roots can work into sewer lines through small cracks or joints. If more than one drain backs up or the basement floor drain gurgles, our plumbers inspect the main line and recommend repair or replacement based on its condition.
Sump Pumps
In homes with a sump pit, the pump handles groundwater that collects around the foundation after spring storms and snowmelt. Allen Service tests, repairs, and replaces sump pumps and can add a battery backup for protection during power outages.
Water Filtration
Highlands Ranch Water draws its supply primarily from the South Platte River and treats it to meet state and federal standards. If you’d still like to change how your water tastes or smells, our plumbers can install filtration equipment chosen for your household’s concerns.
Gas Line Installation
Outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and standby generators are common reasons to add a gas line. At about 5,800 feet, connected appliances also need to be set up for the altitude. Allen Service installs and repairs gas piping sized for the load and routed to code, with the work permitted through Douglas County.
Water Softeners
Highlands Ranch Water reports hardness of about 11 to 13 grains per gallon, which is considered hard. A water softener can cut down on scale at fixtures and inside your water heater, and our plumbers install and service systems sized for your household. The district has noted concerns about chloride from softener discharge, so ask us about discharge options when planning a new system.
Water Heaters
With water this hard, scale collects inside tank water heaters and on the heat exchangers of tankless units. Allen Service provides water heater repair, maintenance, and replacement for tank and tankless systems and can help you compare options when your current unit is near the end of its life.
Sewage Cleanup
A sewer backup in a finished basement can ruin carpet, drywall, and anything stored on the floor. Our team removes contaminated materials, cleans the affected area, and fixes the line that caused the backup.
Mold Removal
Moisture from a slow leak under a sink or behind a shower wall can lead to mold before anyone notices. Allen Service removes mold from affected areas and repairs the leak that allowed it to grow.
Water Damage Restoration
A failed water heater or burst supply line can soak flooring and walls in minutes. We extract standing water, dry the space, address damaged materials, and complete the plumbing repair.

5 Reasons To Call an Highlands Ranch Plumbing Contractor
Several of the most common plumbing problems in Highlands Ranch trace back to hard water or aging original piping. Call a local plumber if you notice any of the following.
- White Scale on Faucets and Showerheads: Crusty buildup and reduced flow at fixtures are signs of the area’s hard water, and the same minerals are collecting inside your pipes and water heater.
- A Water Heater That Pops or Rumbles: Sediment at the bottom of the tank makes noise and forces the heater to work harder. A flush or replacement may be due.
- Gray Plastic Pipe in a 1980s or 1990s Home: Polybutylene supply lines from that era can fail at the fittings. A plumber can confirm what you have and plan a replacement.
- Backups in a Basement Floor Drain: Water or sewage coming up through the lowest drain in the house usually points to a main sewer line problem.
- Lower Water Pressure Than You Used to Have: A gradual drop at several fixtures can come from scale, a failing pressure regulator, or a hidden leak.
Do You Need a Permit for Plumbing Services in Highlands Ranch?
Yes. Highlands Ranch is an unincorporated community, so plumbing permits come from the Douglas County Building Division rather than a city. The county requires a permit to install, alter, repair, or replace a plumbing system, including water heaters. Projects that affect the public water or sewer system also need approval from the Highlands Ranch Metro District before the county will issue a permit.
For permitting questions and correspondence, contact the Douglas County Building Division:
- 100 Third Street, Castle Rock, CO 80104
- (303) 660-7497
