Highland Village homes face unique plumbing challenges — from expansive clay soil that causes slab leaks to outdoor plumbing systems exposed to lake-area weather. Haltex Plumbing brings specialized expertise to every Highland Village neighborhood.
Highland Village sits in a privileged position along the shores of Lake Lewisville, offering residents a lifestyle that blends lakefront recreation with suburban comfort. But that desirable geography comes with plumbing implications that many homeowners do not anticipate. The area's expansive clay soil — the same soil that gives Highland Village its rolling terrain — is one of the most aggressive foundation movers in North Texas. When seasonal rains saturate the ground, the clay swells. During summer droughts, it contracts dramatically. That constant cycle of expansion and contraction puts enormous stress on the water and sewer lines running beneath your foundation.
In The Trails of Highland Village, Highland Shores, and the neighborhoods surrounding Unity Park, we have responded to hundreds of slab leak calls over the years. The signs are often subtle at first — a slightly warm spot on the floor, a water bill that is $20 higher than usual, or the faint sound of water running when everything is turned off. By the time most homeowners call, the leak has been active for weeks. Our advanced electronic leak detection equipment allows us to pinpoint the exact location of a slab leak without tearing up your floors, saving you thousands in unnecessary demolition and repair costs.
Beyond slab leaks, Highland Village homes with lake-adjacent properties have additional plumbing considerations. Outdoor faucets, sprinkler systems, and pool plumbing are more exposed to freeze-thaw cycles that can crack pipes and fittings. Backflow prevention devices are required by local code for homes with irrigation systems, and they need annual testing to ensure your drinking water stays safe. Haltex handles all of this — from emergency slab leak repairs to routine backflow inspections — with the same level of care and expertise.

Our Denton headquarters is a short drive from Highland Village via I-35E. For emergencies, we can be at your door within 30 to 40 minutes, and we dispatch technicians to Highland Village on a daily basis for scheduled service calls.
Backflow prevention is required for Highland Village homes with irrigation. Our certified technicians handle annual testing, repairs, and replacement of RPZ and double-check assemblies, and we file all required documentation with the water authority.

"Our water heater went out on a Saturday night. I called Haltex expecting a voicemail and was shocked when a real person answered. They had a tech at our house within an hour, and we had hot water again before the kids' bedtime. Absolutely incredible service — I can see why they keep winning Best of Denton."

Denton, TX — Emergency Water Heater Replacement
"We noticed our water bill had tripled and had no idea why. Haltex came out with their electronic detection equipment and found a slab leak under our living room. They repaired it with minimal damage to our floor and even coordinated with their sister company, The Design House, to help with the restoration. Truly a one-stop shop."

Flower Mound, TX — Slab Leak Detection & Repair
"We hired Haltex for the plumbing on our master bathroom remodel in Argyle. They were the only plumber who understood the full scope because they work hand-in-hand with The Design House. Every pipe was exactly where it needed to be for our double vanity and walk-in shower. Professional, clean, and on time every day."

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the questions Corinth homeowners ask us most often.
Most builder-grade fixtures have a functional lifespan of 3 to 7 years depending on water quality and usage. If you notice faucet drips, inconsistent shower temperatures, or toilet running, these are signs that a fixture upgrade is overdue. We recommend proactive replacement before failures cause water damage.
Yes, we partner with custom home builders and individual homeowners for new construction plumbing. We handle everything from the initial rough-in plumbing to the final trim-out, including gas line installation, water heater setup, and fixture connection.
Switching from a private well to municipal water involves disconnecting the well system, connecting to the city main, installing a pressure regulator, and testing the entire system. We also evaluate whether your existing water softener is still needed and whether your water heater is properly sized for city water pressure.
For homes with three or more bathrooms, we typically recommend either a high-capacity tankless water heater or a multi-unit configuration. Tankless systems from Rinnai or Navien provide unlimited hot water on demand and are more energy-efficient than traditional tanks. We will assess your home's hot water demand and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
Absolutely. Outdoor kitchens, pool bathrooms, fire pits with gas connections, and irrigation systems are common in master-planned communities. We install, maintain, and repair all outdoor plumbing, including winterization services to protect exterior pipes from North Texas freezes.
Every installation we perform comes with a workmanship warranty, and all fixtures and equipment carry their respective manufacturer warranties. We stand behind our work and will return to address any issues at no additional cost during the warranty period.
