Fixing the Leaking Pipe for Good
Most of the plumbing in a house is somewhere you cannot see it: inside a wall, above a ceiling, or under the slab. That means the first sign of a leak is usually indirect. A water bill that climbed for no reason, a warm patch on the floor, a musty smell in a closet, or a stain on a ceiling that was not there last week.
HMS Heating & Air Conditioning handles pipe repair across Denton County: burst lines during a freeze, slab leaks, corroded fittings on older properties, and the slow drips that quietly rot a cabinet for years. We locate the problem before opening anything up, because guessing where a leak is gets expensive in drywall very quickly.
Choose HMS
Built on Honesty, Since 2015
HMS Heating & Air Conditioning was founded by Gary Hays, a North Texas native who served in the Marine Corps as an aviation electrician.
He earned his HVAC license in 2015 and built the company on a simple standard: explain the problem, lay out your options with prices, and only then pick up a tool. That's how we handle every pipe repair across Denton County, and it's why so many of our customers come from referrals and stay for good.
And if it turns out you don't need the expensive fix, we'll tell you that too. Honesty, integrity, and a reasonable price have been the standard here from day one.

Our Process
Pipe Repair Without the Guesswork
-
Stop the Water
If it is actively leaking, the first job is the shutoff. Knowing where yours is before you need it saves a great deal of damage.
-
Get in Touch
Call, text, or message us. A burst pipe is an emergency and we treat it as one, at whatever hour it happens.
-
Locate the Leak
Meter checks, pressure testing, and tracing. Finding the leak before opening a wall is what keeps the repair small.
-
Options and Prices
Spot repair, reroute, or repipe a section, each with a real number and an honest view of what will hold.
-
Make the Repair
Done with the right materials for the pipe you actually have, whether that is copper, PEX, CPVC, or galvanised.
-
Pressure Test
We bring the system back up and check the repair and the joints around it under pressure before we pack up.
Warning Signs
Signs You Have A Pipe Problem
A water bill that jumped. The most reliable early warning of a hidden leak. If usage climbed and nothing about your household changed, water is going somewhere.
Stains, damp, or a musty smell. A ceiling mark, a soft patch of drywall, or a closet that smells of damp all mean water has been getting out for a while.
A warm spot on the floor. Classic slab leak. It is the hot water line under the concrete, and it needs locating rather than jackhammering on a hunch.
Water pressure that dropped. A loss of pressure across the whole house can mean a leak, a failing pressure regulator, or corrosion narrowing older pipe.
Discoloured water. Rusty or brown water from the cold side usually points at corroding galvanised pipe, which is on borrowed time once it starts.

Common Questions
Pipe Repair Questions, Answered
How do I know if I have a hidden leak?
Check your meter. Turn off every fixture in the house, then look at the meter dial. If it is still moving, water is going somewhere it should not. A bill that climbed with no change in usage is the other common tell.
What is a slab leak and how serious is it?
A leak in a pipe running under the concrete foundation. The usual signs are a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water with everything off, or an unexplained bill increase. They need attention because water under a slab affects the foundation, and locating it precisely is what keeps the repair from becoming demolition.
My pipe burst in a freeze. What do I do first?
Shut off the water at the main, then call. If it is spraying near anything electrical, cut power to that area too. Knowing where your main shutoff is before winter is genuinely worth five minutes of your time.
Should I repair the pipe or repipe the house?
One failed joint or a single damaged run is a repair. Galvanised pipe that is corroding through in several places is not, and repairing it section by section becomes an expensive way to delay the inevitable. We will tell you which situation you are in.
Do you work on well systems?
We handle the house side: supply lines, fittings, and interior pipework. Well pumps and septic systems themselves are outside what we do, and we will say so up front rather than charge you to find out.
Do you offer emergency service for a burst pipe?
Yes, 24/7. Regular hours are 8am to 5pm, but water actively running into your house does not wait for morning. Call (940) 222-9313 any time.
