What is the problem right now?

Pick the closest match — it opens the local guide for that job, with real cost ranges for the area. Or just call and let the dispatcher triage it.

Three steps, then a plumber is on the way

  1. You call and describe it

    A live dispatcher answers in under 60 seconds. Two questions: what is wrong, and your address. If water is running, they help you shut off the main first.

  2. We match you, by availability

    Not a directory list — the dispatcher checks which licensed local plumbers are actually free near your address and hands your request to the one who can take it.

  3. The plumber calls back with a written price

    You get an ETA and a firm quote before anything is touched. Approve it — or decline and owe nothing. Payment goes to the plumber, not to us.

Why homeowners call us instead of working down a list

Licensed and insured, verified at the call

Plumbers in the network hold state licenses — in Colorado that means journeyman or master credentials through DORA — and carry their own insurance. Ask for the number on the call and they will show it.

A written price before anyone starts

Nothing begins until you approve a written number. An honest plumber quotes a range on the phone and firms it up on site — the dispatcher tells you that up front so the conversation is not a surprise.

One call instead of five quotes

The hard part after a freeze is finding anyone available. Dispatch knows which licensed local plumbers are free near your address right now, so you are not working down a list while water is running.

The dispatch call is free

You pay the plumber directly for the work. No dispatch fee, no call-out charge, and no middleman markup added to the plumber’s invoice.

A real person, not a phone tree

A live dispatcher answers in under 60 seconds, asks two questions — what is wrong, and your address — and triages from there. If water is actively running, they will walk you to your main shutoff first.

Emergency triage first

Burst pipes, sewer backups and no-water calls get priority handling. Gas smells, fire, smoke and carbon monoxide never do: those go to 911 and your utility, and the dispatcher will tell you so.

Ask the plumber these three things

We match, we do not supervise — so the contract for the work is between you and the plumber. That is exactly why you should verify on the call, every time:

Their license number

In Colorado, journeyman and master licenses are issued by the State Plumbing Board through DORA. Ask for the number and check it before work starts.

Proof of insurance

Ask whether they carry liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and for a certificate if the job is substantial.

The written quote

Scope, price and what happens if they find something else mid-job. Get it in writing before the first tool comes out.

Where the dispatch line answers

Call coverage is nationwide. Published city cost guides and local plumbing data currently cover Colorado — Denver metro, Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak region, Northern Colorado, the mountain towns and the Western Slope — with more states rolling out.

Denver

Old cast iron and clay laterals plus freeze-thaw cycles on the Front Range.

Aurora

Post-war housing stock, hard water, and water heaters that fail young.

Colorado Springs

Expansive soils, high freeze risk, and heavy scaling on appliance lines.

Pueblo

Older mains and storm-season basement water on the Arkansas corridor.

Straight answers

Are you a plumbing company?

No. We’re a dispatch and connection service. When you call, a live dispatcher matches you with a licensed, insured local plumber serving your address — the plumber does the work, and you get the upfront price before anything starts.

How fast can I talk to someone?

A real person answers in under 60 seconds — no phone menus, no voicemail tree. The matched plumber then calls you back with an ETA and a firm, written price before any work begins.

What does the call cost?

The dispatch call is free. You pay the plumber directly for the work — and only after you’ve approved a written, upfront quote. No call-out charge, no hidden dispatch fee.

Are the plumbers licensed in Colorado?

Yes. Plumbers in the network hold Colorado State Plumbing Board licenses (journeyman or master level through DORA) and carry their own insurance. Ask the plumber on the call and they’ll show credentials.

Which parts of Colorado do you cover?

Statewide — the Denver metro, Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak region, Northern Colorado, the Eastern Plains, mountain communities, and the Western Slope. Call with your address and the dispatcher confirms a local plumber is available.
