Plumber in Kemah, TX
Kemah has been flattened by storms and rebuilt more than once, and the city now requires new homes to sit at least a foot and a half above flood level. Many are built high enough to park underneath, which puts a lot of the plumbing out in the open: supply and drain lines dropping from the floor down to the ground, and water heaters up on the living level instead of in a garage. We work on those raised homes and on the older cottages that sit closer to the ground, on both sides of Highway 146. Tell us what’s wrong and we’ll pinpoint it and quote one set price before we start.

Every plumbing service we offer
— at your address.
Kemah homeowners can book any of our four services, whether it’s a repair, a water heater, a drain or sewer line, or a remodel, from the neighborhoods off FM 2094 to the streets near the waterfront. The work here splits two ways: older homes with original lines that have ridden out several storms, and elevated homes where pipe under the house is exposed to wind and weather. Choose a service to read what it includes or to pick a time.
General Plumbing
Hidden leaks, drips that won’t stop, and worn-out supply pipe ready to be replaced throughout the house, including the sections that run exposed under a raised home. Licensed plumbers handle every call and set one written price before anything begins.nder a raised home. Licensed plumbers handle every call and set one written price before anything begins.
Water Heaters
Whether yours is a tank or a tankless unit, most repairs and replacements take one visit. In raised homes the heater often lives in a closet or attic on the living level, and we take care of the carry-up, the venting, and the pan and drain line that protect the floor below.
Sewer & Drain
Before we quote drain or sewer work, a camera goes through the line and you watch the footage with us. On a raised home we also check where the drain leaves the house and drops to the ground, since that stretch is out in the weather.
Plumbing Remodeling
We work alongside your designer or contractor to rough-in and trim out kitchens, bathrooms, additions, and outdoor kitchens — keeping your project on schedule and to code.
About Kemah
What we see in Kemah homes.
Kemah began as a railroad stop called Evergreen, also known as Shell Siding for the oyster shell banks along the shore, and got the name Kemah, from a Karankawa word said to mean “wind in my face,” when its post office opened in 1907. After the 1900 storm, residents came back and built two-story homes on 10th Street. A shrimp fleet grew up in the 1950s once the Clear Creek Channel opened, Hurricane Carla hit hard in 1961, and Ike’s surge in 2008 swamped the waterfront along Galveston Bay. With about 1,800 residents, it’s one of the smallest towns we serve in Galveston County, and one with its own way of building.
Plumbing in Kemah comes down to how high the house sits. On elevated homes, the supply lines, drains and vents under the floor are open to the air, so we look for loose straps, sagging drain runs, and pipe that was never protected from wind or the occasional hard freeze. On older homes closer to the ground, original pipe and sewer lines that have lived through several hurricanes are the usual trouble, and a surge can leave sand and debris sitting in the drains.
We’ll walk you through what we find, what a lasting fix looks like, and what it costs, and the decision stays with you. Water pouring out somewhere? Shut the main off and call us. Most of the time we can be there that same day.

From Kemah homeowners
Your Kemah neighbors trust Alliance
“Whole-home repipe finished in one long day. Drywall patches were minimal because they’re careful where they cut. The plumbers were polite, on time, and cleaned up better than my own family does.”
“Kelly’s crew arrived 30 minutes after I called about no hot water on a Sunday morning. They explained every option, gave a fixed price, and had a new tankless running by dinner. I haven’t run out of hot water since.”
“Our water bill doubled overnight. Alliance found the slab leak in 20 minutes with their listening equipment, gave us two options to fix it, and didn’t pressure us into the expensive one. Top to bottom professional.”
