Garbage Disposals
A jammed or broken garbage disposal can back up your sink and your whole day. We offer fast repair and replacement for all major disposal brands. If it’s humming but not spinning, leaking, or just not turning on, we can help.
Irrigation Meters
Installing an irrigation meter can help separate outdoor water usage from your home’s sewer charges, which may reduce your utility bills. We install and connect irrigation meters that meet local Des Moines requirements and help you track water use accurately.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my toilet needs to be replaced or just repaired?
If it’s leaking, running constantly, or over 15 years old, it might be time for a replacement. We’ll always evaluate and recommend the most cost-effective option first.
Are irrigation meters worth it in Des Moines?
Yes — in many cases, an irrigation meter can help you save money by separating outdoor watering from your sewer bill. We can check if it’s right for your property and help with city permit compliance.
