Plumbing services for Greater New Orleans
From a leaky faucet to a full repipe, J&R handles every plumbing job across the metro with licensed techs, upfront pricing and true 24/7 emergency dispatch.
Our services
Full-service plumbing, done right the first time
We fix the problem at the source and leave your home cleaner than we found it. Here's what J&R takes care of for homeowners around New Orleans.
Emergency Plumbing
A burst pipe or a backed-up sewer line doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. J&R runs true 24/7 emergency dispatch across the New Orleans metro, so a midnight flood or a Sunday no-water call gets a licensed plumber headed your way fast. We stop the damage first, then walk you through the fix before anything else happens.
- Burst and frozen pipe repair
- Sewer and drain backups
- No-water and no-hot-water calls
- Priority same-day dispatch metro-wide
Drain Cleaning
Slow drains and gurgling toilets usually mean grease, roots or years of buildup narrowing the line. We clear it at the source with professional snaking and high-pressure hydro jetting, then run a camera down to confirm the pipe is actually clean, not just flowing again for a week.
- Kitchen, bathroom and main line snaking
- Hydro jetting for grease and heavy buildup
- Tree and live oak root removal
- Camera inspection to verify the clear
Water Heaters
Cold showers, rusty water or a tank that quit overnight, we handle repair and replacement on both tank and tankless systems. We size the new unit to how your household actually uses hot water instead of overselling you, and haul the old one away when we're done.
- Tank and tankless repair
- Same-day replacement on common models
- Tankless upgrades and conversions
- Right-sized for your home and usage
Leak Detection & Repair
South Louisiana soil shifts, and slab leaks come with the territory. We locate hidden leaks under slabs, behind walls and beneath yards with electronic detection, so we dig once in the right spot instead of tearing up your whole floor guessing. Then we fix the line and check pressure before we leave.
- Slab and foundation leak location
- Hidden wall and underground line leaks
- Electronic and acoustic detection
- Targeted, minimal-dig repair
Sewer Line Services
Older New Orleans homes ride on cast iron and clay sewer lines that crack, sag and fill with roots over the decades. We camera the full run, pinpoint the failure and give you honest options, from a spot repair to a full line replacement, before you commit to anything.
- Sewer camera inspections
- Root intrusion and blockage clearing
- Spot repairs and full line replacement
- Repiping for aging cast iron
Fixtures & Repiping
From a dripping faucet to a whole-house repipe, we install fixtures and water lines clean and to code. If your home still runs on galvanized or polybutylene pipe, we'll swap it for modern PEX or copper and get your pressure and water quality back where they belong.
- Faucets, toilets and garbage disposals
- Water line and pressure repairs
- Whole-house repiping
- Galvanized and polybutylene replacement

Good to know
Plumbing questions, answered
A few things homeowners ask us before booking a service call.
Water pooling where it shouldn't, a sewage smell indoors, no hot water, a sudden drop in pressure or a water meter that keeps spinning when everything's off. Any of those means call now, since small leaks turn into big damage fast in humid Gulf Coast homes.
Usually, yes. We use electronic and acoustic detection to pinpoint the leak first, so the repair is targeted to one spot instead of a guess-and-dig job across the room.
It comes down to how much hot water you use, your space and your budget. Tankless gives you endless hot water and frees up room, while a standard tank costs less upfront. We'll size and recommend the right fit instead of pushing the pricier option.
Both. One call covers a dripping faucet, a clogged drain, a new water heater or a whole-house repipe. Same crew, same upfront pricing, whatever the size of the job.
