Water Heater Maintenance and Flushing for Hard Water
Sediment settles fast when the water is hard. Annual water heater flushing, an anode rod check, and a test of the relief valve can add years to a tank and keep your energy bill from creeping up.

Licensed, family-owned plumbing for Argyle acreage homes and newer neighborhoods alike, from well water treatment and water heater maintenance to gas lines for your shop or outdoor kitchen.
Argyle has held on to its small-town, horse-country character even as I-35W traffic and new rooftops press in from every side. Drive US 377 or FM 407 and you pass pasture, barns, and acreage homes set far back from the road. Turn into Canyon Falls or Harvest and you find newer houses on tighter lots, with very different plumbing problems.
On larger properties, water often comes from a private well, and the service line can run a long way from the pump or meter to the house. A slow leak buried out in the pasture can go unnoticed for months, and mineral-heavy well water is hard on water heaters, faucets, and tankless units. In the master-planned neighborhoods, the usual concerns are builder-grade fixtures, tankless heaters that have never been serviced, and the expanding clay soil that shifts slabs all across Denton County.
Texas Born Plumbing is a Fort Worth-based, family-owned company holding Texas license M45910. We're in Argyle Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 5:00pm, and Saturday and Sunday visits are available by appointment. You get a straight explanation of the problem and the price before any work begins, with no hidden costs and no shortcuts.

Scale buildup is the most common reason a tankless unit throws error codes or runs lukewarm. We descale the heat exchanger, clean the inlet screen, handle tankless water heater gas line connections, and manage installation and replacement when an older unit is past saving.

A meter that keeps spinning or a soggy spot in the yard usually points to a buried line. We use leak detection equipment to find the break so we don't have to trench half your property to fix it.

Well water can leave spots on glass, crust on fixtures, and an odd taste in the kitchen. We start with water quality testing, then match you with a softener, filtration system, or reverse osmosis unit that fits what's actually in your water.

Argyle homeowners put their land to work with barns, workshops, outdoor kitchens, and fire pits. We run new gas lines, pressure test them, and handle gas line inspection and repair on existing service.

Slow tubs, gurgling sinks, and backed-up kitchen lines get cleared with drain snaking or a camera look when the clog keeps coming back. If shifting clay or roots have damaged the line, we'll show you what we found and tell you plainly whether a cleaning will hold.
Yes. We work on everything from the water line into your house through the fixtures inside, including water heaters, softeners, filtration, and leak repair. Well pumps and the well itself are a separate specialty, so if we find the problem sits at the pump, we'll tell you plainly instead of guessing at it.
Once a year is a good baseline for most homes. On untreated well water, or if you notice fluctuating temperatures or error codes, every six to nine months is safer. A water softener upstream of the unit can stretch that interval out considerably.
We do. Many of our neighbors to the north call us from Denton, and we're regularly south of FM 1171 working in Keller and Southlake. Same crew, same honest pricing, wherever you are along the I-35W corridor.


Hard water and long service lines don't give much warning before they cause trouble, so the best time to call is before something fails. Call (817) 542-7599 or send us a request and let us know whether you're on a well or city water, how old your water heater is, and anything you've noticed lately. We'll set a weekday visit that works for you, or a weekend appointment if that's easier, and quote the job before we start.
