Who we are
Texas Plumber Connection & Foundation Repair is based in Porter, Texas, working across Montgomery County and the northern edge of Harris County. We handle the ordinary and the urgent: water heaters, drains and sewer lines, slab leaks, repiping, gas lines, and the burst supply line that decides to let go on a Saturday afternoon.
We also do foundation repair, and the two trades belong together more than most people expect. The same expansive clay that moves a slab is what breaks the pipe running underneath it — and a slab leak left running long enough will saturate that clay and cause the movement in the first place. Lifting a foundation without testing the plumbing, or fixing a slab leak without asking why the ground moved, means solving half a problem.
We're based here rather than dispatching from somewhere inside the Loop. That's not a marketing line — it's the difference between a truck arriving in twenty minutes and a truck arriving after crossing Houston twice.
No service fee, and why that matters
Most plumbing companies in this area charge a diagnostic or trip fee, typically somewhere between $69 and $149, and many will credit it toward the work if you say yes on the spot. It's a reasonable business model. It also quietly puts a price on getting a second opinion, and it means a homeowner who's already worried about cost has to pay before they learn anything.
We don't charge one. We come out, we find out what's wrong, we tell you what it costs, and you decide. If you'd rather think about it, or get another quote, or wait until next month — that's genuinely fine, and it costs you nothing.
The practical effect is that people call us earlier. A slow drip that gets looked at in week one is a repair. The same drip in week six has been soaking a subfloor.
The equipment we install
We work with Navien and Rheem tankless water heaters, Bradford White and Rheem tank heaters, Uponor PEX for repiping, and American Standard fixtures.
Those choices are about what happens in year seven, not what's cheapest to buy in year one. Parts availability, warranty support and a service network that actually answers the phone matter far more to a homeowner than the sticker price of the unit, and the difference only becomes visible long after the installer has gone.
Straight answers, including the unprofitable ones
The most useful thing a plumber can tell you is sometimes that you don't need what you thought you needed.
A sewer line that keeps blocking might need a spot repair at one failed joint rather than a full replacement — and the camera footage will show which, so you're not taking our word for it. A house on a septic system that's backing up may have a perfectly sound sewer line and a tank or drain field that needs a septic contractor, not more pipe work. A tankless conversion doesn't make sense for every household, and we'll say so when it doesn't.
We'd rather do the smaller job honestly and be the people you call next time.
Serving this part of Texas specifically
We cover Porter, New Caney, Spring, The Woodlands, Conroe, Oak Ridge North, Cut and Shoot, Humble, Atascocita and Tomball — and the plumbing in those places is genuinely different from one to the next.
Unincorporated Porter and New Caney permit through Montgomery County and include a lot of properties on wells and aerobic septic systems. Spring and Atascocita are unincorporated Harris County, served by dozens of separate municipal utility districts with meaningfully different water. Conroe, Humble, Tomball and Oak Ridge North are cities that run their own utilities and permitting. The Woodlands is a township that permits through the county and has covenants on anything visible from outside.
Knowing which of those you're in — and what it means for permits, water chemistry and what's likely buried in your yard — is most of the job.
Licensed, insured, and checkable
Our work is carried out under Texas Master Plumber licence #43874, held by Christopher I. Brulloths, who is the Responsible Master Plumber for the company. There's a certificate of insurance on file with the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners, and the licence carries no disciplinary actions.
You don't have to take that from us. The Board publishes a free licence lookup, and any Texas plumbing company should be willing to give you a number you can type into it. If one won't, that tells you something.
It's also worth knowing that Texas requires a plumbing company to display its Responsible Master Plumber's licence number on its advertising — including its website and its trucks. A plumbing advert with no licence number on it anywhere is not just an omission.
Practical details
We're out Monday through Saturday, 8am to 8pm, for estimates and repairs. Financing is available through Synchrony, because water heaters and sewer lines have a habit of failing at the worst possible moment and nobody should have to choose the cheap patch over the proper repair for want of timing.
Call (832) 885-9820 and tell us what's happening.
