Our Plumbing Services in Orem
Orem’s mix of older homes and accessory apartments creates plumbing demands that newer, single-household homes may not have. Older supply and drain lines have had decades to develop scale, corrosion, and wear, while a second kitchen, bathroom, or laundry can add more demand to piping originally sized for one household. Triple-T looks at how the whole system is being used before recommending a repair.
Drain Cleaning
A slow drain that keeps returning is usually telling you more than a one-time clog. Older Orem drain lines can narrow as grease, soap, and scale build up, and homes with a second kitchen or laundry put even more demand on the same stack. Triple-T clears drains throughout the home and can inspect recurring problem lines so you know whether cleaning is enough or the pipe itself needs attention.
Hydro Jetting
Hydrojet drain cleaning scours the pipe wall rather than boring through the blockage, which is what an older Orem kitchen line coated in decades of grease actually needs. It also handles scale in cast iron and root intrusion in a lateral. We recommend jetting after a camera inspection so we know the pipe can take it.
Sewer Lines & Camera Inspection
The sewer lateral from an Orem home to the city main is the homeowner’s responsibility. In older lines, root intrusion, shifted joints, and low spots can cause the same backup again and again. If drains gurgle, sewage odors appear, or wastewater comes up through a basement floor drain, a camera inspection can show whether the line needs cleaning, a spot repair, or replacement instead of another temporary clearing.
Water Heaters
Water heater problems in Orem can come from mineral sediment, equipment age, or simply asking one tank to serve more people than it was sized for. Popping noises, slow recovery, rusty first-draw water, or hot water that runs out when both living spaces are using it are all worth investigating. Triple-T provides repair, flushing, tank replacement, and tankless installation, and we help determine whether the problem is a failing heater or insufficient capacity.
Water Softeners & Water Filtration
Because Orem’s supply is blended, homeowners sometimes notice that scale and taste vary from season to season. Softener settings that were right for one blend can be wrong for another. Triple-T installs and services water softeners, conditioners, and drinking water filtration, and we test the water at the house rather than assuming a citywide number applies to every tap.
Pipes & Repiping
Recurring pinhole leaks, discolored water on first draw, pressure that drops when a second fixture opens, and repairs that keep migrating to the next section of pipe are all signs that the supply piping rather than the fitting is the problem. Triple-T repairs and replaces water lines and provides whole-home repiping. In a duplex or a home with a second unit, repiping is often the moment to correct undersized branches that were never adequate once a second bathroom went in.
Leak Detection & Repair
Orem’s water division advises residents to locate the main shutoff valve and exercise it twice a year, which is good advice and also the moment most people discover the valve no longer turns. Triple-T locates leaks in service lines, under slabs, behind walls, and at fixture connections, and we replace seized main shutoffs and angle stops before they become the reason a small leak turns into a flooded floor.
Accessory Apartment & Second Unit Plumbing
Adding a legal accessory apartment means adding fixtures, and fixtures have to be vented and drained properly to work. We handle rough-in and finish plumbing for basement kitchens and bathrooms, added laundry connections, drain and vent corrections on work that was done informally years ago, and the water heater capacity question that comes with a second household. If you are converting space, it is far cheaper to plan the drain and vent layout before the drywall goes up.
Fixture Repair, Toilets & Bathroom Plumbing
Triple-T handles clogged toilet repair, running and rocking toilets, toilet replacement, faucet and valve repair, shutoff replacement, garbage disposals, and laundry connections. For remodels, our bathroom plumber work covers rough-in through finish, including relocating fixtures in older homes where the existing drain layout limits what is possible.
Sump Pumps
Where an Orem basement has a pit, the pump matters most during spring runoff and after long wet stretches. A pump that runs without discharging, cycles constantly, or has never been tested should be checked before the season rather than during it. We repair, replace, and install sump pumps, including battery backup where a finished basement or a rented unit is below grade.
Gas Line Services
Triple-T installs, repairs, and replaces gas lines for water heaters, furnaces, ranges, dryers, and outdoor appliances. Adding a second kitchen or a second laundry often means extending gas as well, and older homes frequently need the line sized up before another appliance goes on it. If you smell gas, leave and call the utility first.
Commercial Plumbing
Triple-T has served Utah families and businesses since 1974. Property managers and businesses looking for commercial plumbers can reach us for drain and grease line maintenance, water heater service, fixture replacement, and scheduled work between tenancies.

Plumbing Coupons and Maintenance Plans
Routine plumbing inspections can help identify aging shutoffs, developing drain problems, leaks, and water heater issues before they turn into an urgent call. Triple-T offers current plumbing coupons and maintenance plans starting at $10 per month, with benefits such as priority scheduling, service discounts, and routine inspections.

Plumbing Financing Options in Orem, UT
Repiping, sewer replacement, and major water heater work can create a large expense with little warning. Triple-T offers plumbing financing through Service Finance Company for qualifying Orem homeowners. We can price the immediate repair and the longer-term solution, then review available payment plans so you can make the decision based on what the home needs rather than the lowest upfront cost.
6 Reasons To Call an Orem Plumbing Contractor
These warning signs are worth addressing early because they often point to a larger problem that becomes more expensive once it causes a backup, leak, or water damage.
Two households, one water heater
If hot water runs out whenever both units use it, the tank is undersized for the building rather than failing. Sizing it correctly is cheaper than replacing it twice.
The same drain keeps closing
In older stacks, repeat clogs mean the pipe interior has narrowed. A camera inspection tells you whether jetting will fix it or whether the section needs replacing.
Your main shutoff will not turn
The city recommends exercising it twice a year. A valve that has seized is a problem you will discover at the worst possible moment.
A basement floor drain backs up during heavy use
That points at the lateral, not the fixture, and it is the one backup that reliably damages finished space.
A second kitchen or bath was added without permits
Informal drain and vent work causes slow drains, sewer gas odor, and problems at sale. It is usually correctable.
Scale or taste changed with the season
Orem’s blended supply shifts through the year. If your softener was set years ago, it may no longer match the water coming in.
Do You Need a Permit for Plumbing Services in Orem?
Many plumbing installation and replacement projects in Orem require a permit and inspection, including repiping, water heater replacement, and sewer lateral work. Routine maintenance and simple fixture repairs may not. Permits can be especially important when the work involves an accessory apartment. For permitted projects we perform, Triple-T handles the permit and inspection process so you do not have to coordinate it yourself.
For permitting questions and correspondence, contact the Orem City Building Division:

For water or sewer questions, Orem’s water reclamation office can be reached at 801-229-7506.
Thanks!!
Our 10 year-old hot water heater was acting up. We opted for a new one for peace of mind vs replacing parts. Jose was polite and knowledgeable, with excellent people skills. Worked quick and did an excellent job. Definitely recommend.
Highly Recommend Triple-T
Gus came the same day we had a problem with HVAC system not working. He came prepared to fix it right then, or to wait a day to consider a new system which we opted out of. Came back today and repaired. He’s very friendly, quick and knowledgeable.
