Our Boulder County plumbing services

Six core Boulder County plumbing services, done by the same licensed team every time. Pick one for the full details, or if you prefer, jump to your town for local info.

Drain cleaning

Slow sinks, backed up tubs, gurgling toilets and main line clogs. We clear the clog without the harsh chemical cleaners that eat away at older pipes, and when a drain keeps coming back, we run a camera down the line so you can see exactly what's causing it.

Water heaters

No hot water, popping and rumbling, rusty water or a puddle under the tank. We repair and replace tank and tankless water heaters, and we'll tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense or the unit is at the end of its life.

Water heater details →

Replacement and new installs
Flushing, as well as anode rod checks

Leak detection & repair

A water bill that jumps for no reason, a damp spot that keeps coming back, or the sound of running water when everything's off. We find hidden leaks with acoustic and camera equipment, so we only open up the spot where the leak actually is.

Emergency plumbing

Burst pipes, sewage backing up, a water heater dumping water on the floor. We're open 7 days a week and emergencies go to the front of the line. While you wait, shut off your main water valve if you can find it.

Repipe & fixture install

Low pressure, rusty water and leaks that keep popping up in new spots usually mean old galvanized pipe, especially in older homes. We do full and partial repipes, as well as faucets, toilets, sinks and showers for remodels or straight swaps, all clean and up to code.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug was great. He was able to give me a quote over the phone without a service charge, showed up at a specific time he told me, not an all day range, he fixed the leaky shower quickly and charged me good rate. Amazing plumbing experience!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Doug and his company today for the first time. The service was excellent! We had some issues with drains backing up, and some other plumbing repairs. Doug scheduled his visit for the next day, showed up on time, was polite and efficient! The cost was very fair. I highly recommend using Doug, and Around the Clog for any plumbing needs you may have! thanks Doug!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug has done a LOT of plumbing work at our home over the years. Today, he was able to access a drain behind the wall by thinking out side of the box, and a lot of muscle power to cut the old pipe out. His team shows up, they’re on time, complete the work, clean up and have never tried to sell me BS or upsell the work. Doug has integrity and stands behind his work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were in a real pickle recently, with our buyers requesting a plumbing inspection on the day of closing. We were stressed! I called several plumbers that morning, and Around the Clog was able to arrive first. Their team truly went above and beyond to provide the best overall service we received during our recent move. Our buyers required a signed form at the closing table, and the team at Around the Clog bent over backwards to make it happen for us. Thank you for the incredible service!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug came out to modify a gas line for our oven. Great communication, fast efficient work, and super punctual. Fair pricing. This is the second time we've hired him and will definitely use Around The Clog again in the future! Highly recommend!
