Gene Wagner started this company in 1998 with one truck and a licence, and the first customers were neighbors. That is still the shape of the work in a city like Lima — you show up, you do it right, and the next call comes from the person next door.
Homes around Lima, Illinois tend to be older and further apart, which changes the job. Longer water service runs, more private wells, more frozen pipe calls in January. A plumber who only works new construction is out of his depth here.
Why homeowners keep the number after the first job.
This started as two people and a truck in 1998 and grew on water, sewer and drain work. Nearly three decades in one trade, not a franchise name bought off a shelf last year.
You hear the number before a wrench moves. No hourly meter running while you stand there, and no discovering the real cost after the wall is open.

Every job goes to a licensed, insured plumbing contractor who pulls the permits your town requires. Licence numbers are on the invoice, not buried on a webpage.
Burst pipes and sewage backups do not wait for business hours. The phone is answered at night and on weekends, and the first thing you get is help finding your shutoff.
The questions homeowners ask us most.
Yes, and it starts with an actual water test rather than a guess. Hardness, iron and sulfur all need different equipment, so the Lima system gets sized off what is really in your water.
We do. If someone has told you the house needs a full repipe or a new sewer line, a Lima second opinion either finds you a smaller fix or confirms the first diagnosis so you can buy with confidence.
Yes. Burst pipes, sewage backups and no-water calls in Lima are answered around the clock. The first thing on the phone is getting your main shutoff closed so the house stops taking damage while a truck is on the way.
For a true emergency in Lima the target is same-day, and most of the time inside a few hours. Scheduled work like a water heater swap or a fixture set is usually booked within two or three business days.
That is the classic hidden leak — usually a slab leak, an underground service line, or a toilet flapper passing water quietly all night. A Lima leak detection visit puts a pressure gauge on the system and finds it without digging up the yard first.
Under about eight years old with a bad element, thermostat or valve, repair is usually the better money in Lima. Past twelve years, or if the tank itself is weeping, replacement is the honest answer and we will say so.
What homeowners say after the truck pulls out.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Old cast iron stack was leaking behind the wall. They cut it out and put in new, and were careful about dust with plastic and a fan. That mattered with a baby in the house."
