How Irving grew, and what that means for its pipes

Irving was a farm town of 2,621 people in 1950, then reached 45,985 by 1960 and 97,260 by 1970, so much of central and eastern Irving was built in one postwar rush. 2024 Census Bureau estimates put Irving's median year built at 1987, with the 1980s the busiest building decade and about 1 in 5 homes older than 1970.

Houses from the postwar boom: rust-choked galvanized water lines, cast-iron drains and sewer laterals that roots invade.
Homes built about 1978 to 1997: some have polybutylene, a plastic supply pipe that chlorinated water weakens until it splits at fittings.
Apartments and condos: about half of Irving's housing units are in buildings of five or more units, and nearly two in three occupied homes are rented. In stacked units a leak can reach the unit below, and shared lines belong to the property.

Slab houses rest on North Texas clay that heaves when soaked and pulls back in dry summers, bending pipe under floors and yards. See slab leak repair and repiping.

Las Colinas: kitchens, apartments and planned neighborhoods

Ben H. Carpenter began developing Las Colinas in 1972 on his family's former ranch on Irving's north side. It now includes Lake Carolyn, the Mandalay Canal, the Mustangs of Las Colinas sculpture, the Irving Convention Center, restaurants and planned neighborhoods such as Hackberry Creek and Cottonwood Valley. Valley Ranch, north of Las Colinas, grew mostly from the 1980s on. Typical work:

Restaurant and bar kitchens: grease-heavy drains, grease traps, commercial water heaters and gas lines for cooking equipment.
Apartment and condo units: fixtures, drains and in-unit water heaters, coordinated with the building engineer on shared risers.
1980s and 1990s houses: water heaters, slab leaks and polybutylene checks.

Older central Irving and the Heritage District

The Irving Heritage District covers the historic downtown and the Irving Civic Center, and Trinity Railway Express trains stop at Downtown Irving/Heritage Crossing station on Rock Island Road. Many nearby streets, and many in eastern Irving, date from the 1950s and 1960s. Common jobs:

Weak flow or rusty water from galvanized pipe: water pressure repair or a repipe.
Backups from scaled cast iron or rooted laterals: drain cleaning, a camera inspection and sewer line repair.
Aging tank heaters and old gas piping: water heater repair, replacement and gas line repair.

Irving water, service lines and permits

The City of Irving runs its own water utility, separate from Dallas, though federal records show it buys water from Dallas Water Utilities. Bills, meters and breaks in the street go to the City of Irving; anything on your side of the meter is a plumber's job.

Under federal lead rules, water systems had to inventory service line materials by October 16, 2024. The pipe from the meter box to your house is normally the owner's; we can expose it, identify the material and repair or replace it.

Plumbing permits for work in Irving come from the City of Irving, not Dallas; the plumber doing the work pulls the permit.

Emergencies in Irving

Day or night, dial (844) 313-1397 and we send our on-call plumber right away. Meanwhile:

Stop the water at the house shutoff. No house valve? Some meter boxes also have a customer-side valve; if you can't find or turn one, call the City of Irving to shut the water off. Switch the water heater off too.
With sewage, quit flushing and running taps. If several houses on the block back up together, tell the City of Irving.

Smell gas? Leave the building first. Don't flip switches or light anything. Once you're outside, call 911 or Atmos Energy, then call us at (844) 313-1397.

Guides: burst pipe, sewage in a tub, gas smell and emergency plumbing.

Irving plumbing questions

Where does Irving's tap water come from?

Irving runs its own water utility but buys the water from Dallas Water Utilities, according to federal drinking water records.

Do you work on Las Colinas apartments and condos?

Yes, for leaks, drains, fixtures and water heaters inside a unit. Shared risers and main shutoffs belong to the property, so renters should tell management first.

How can I tell if my Irving house has polybutylene or galvanized pipe?

Look where supply pipes leave the wall under a sink. Plastic supply pipe in a house built about 1978 to 1997 may be polybutylene; dull gray threaded metal in an older house is likely galvanized steel.

Who fixes a sewer backup that hits several houses on my Irving street?

The public main belongs to the City of Irving, so report a block-wide backup to the city. A backup in just one house usually starts in that home's drains or sewer line; stop running water and call us.
