Gene Wagner started this company in 1998 with one truck and a licence, and the first customers were neighbors. That is still the shape of the work in a city like Nitro — you show up, you do it right, and the next call comes from the person next door.
Homes around Nitro, West Virginia tend to be older and further apart, which changes the job. Longer water service runs, more private wells, more frozen pipe calls in January. A plumber who only works new construction is out of his depth here.
The parts of the job that are easy to skip and we do not.
This started as two people and a truck in 1998 and grew on water, sewer and drain work. Nearly three decades in one trade, not a franchise name bought off a shelf last year.
You hear the number before a wrench moves. No hourly meter running while you stand there, and no discovering the real cost after the wall is open.
Sewer and drain problems get a camera down the line first, and you see the screen. Nobody trenches a yard on a guess when a fifteen minute look will show the break.
Burst pipes and sewage backups do not wait for business hours. The phone is answered at night and on weekends, and the first thing you get is help finding your shutoff.
Told you need a full repipe or a new sewer line? Get it looked at again. Sometimes it is a smaller fix, and sometimes we confirm the first plumber was right so you can spend with confidence.
The questions homeowners ask us most.
Yes, and it starts with an actual water test rather than a guess. Hardness, iron and sulfur all need different equipment, so the Nitro system gets sized off what is really in your water.
For a true emergency in Nitro the target is same-day, and most of the time inside a few hours. Scheduled work like a water heater swap or a fixture set is usually booked within two or three business days.
A camera goes down the line first so you can see the break and how deep it is. Where the depth and the yard allow it, a Nitro sewer repair can be done trenchless and leave most of the lawn alone.
Almost always. A cable machine or hydro jet goes in through an existing cleanout and clears the line from there. In Nitro the camera goes down afterward so you can see whether it was grease, roots or a broken section.
That is the classic hidden leak — usually a slab leak, an underground service line, or a toilet flapper passing water quietly all night. A Nitro leak detection visit puts a pressure gauge on the system and finds it without digging up the yard first.
Yes. Burst pipes, sewage backups and no-water calls in Nitro are answered around the clock. The first thing on the phone is getting your main shutoff closed so the house stops taking damage while a truck is on the way.
What homeowners say after the truck pulls out.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Kitchen drain had been slow for a year. Ran the cable, then put a camera down and showed me the grease ring on his screen. Explained what to stop pouring down it. Has not backed up since."
"Old cast iron stack was leaking behind the wall. They cut it out and put in new, and were careful about dust with plastic and a fan. That mattered with a baby in the house."
