Leak Detection, Water Lines & Repiping
Smart water shutoff valve installation in Oklahoma City puts an automatic valve on your main water line that can close itself when a pipe bursts or a washer hose lets go. We choose the right valve for your pipe and your habits, install it where it protects the whole house, set up the alerts on your phone, and make sure you can still shut the water off by hand.

(405) 309-1873A smart water shutoff valve is a motorized valve on your main water line, connected to an app, that can close automatically when it detects a leak. Our installation covers:
That last point matters more than people think. IBHS found that during the 2021 arctic outbreak in Texas and Louisiana, water damage was made worse because many homeowners did not know how to turn off their main water supply once a pipe burst. A smart valve closes it for you.
Whole-home valves fall into two broad types. Flow-sensing valves learn your normal water use and watch for flow that runs too long or too fast, then close the main. Many also run brief pressure checks when the house is quiet to catch slow drips. Sensor-triggered valves close when a wireless sensor on the floor gets wet. Some systems combine both. Either way, you get an alert on your phone and can open or close the valve remotely, and a manual override lets you work it by hand.
Many valves also have an away mode, which is useful in Oklahoma City winters. While the house is empty, the valve can close at the first sign of unusual flow instead of allowing the longer run times it permits when you are home.
| Option | What it does | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Flow-sensing smart valve | Watches whole-house flow, alerts you and closes the main | Small drips may take time to register |
| Sensor-triggered shutoff valve | Closes the main when a floor sensor gets wet | Only catches leaks where a sensor sits |
| Stand-alone leak sensors | Sound an alarm or send an alert | Cannot stop the water by themselves |
| Manual main shutoff only | Stops water when someone closes it | Useless if nobody is home or nobody knows where it is |
Leaving town this winter?
A smart shutoff valve can close the water if a pipe bursts while you are away. Call to set one up.
We price the job after the walkthrough. The valve model, your main line size and material, how easy the line is to reach, whether an outlet is nearby, the number of sensors, and any repair to a seized main valve or corroded entry pipe all affect the cost. Financing is available.
Water damage and freezing are among the biggest sources of homeowners insurance losses. The Insurance Information Institute estimates that about one in 60 insured homes has a property damage claim caused by water damage or freezing. Our weather raises the stakes: a hard freeze can split a pipe in an attic or outside wall while the family is away for the holidays.
Not every leak is a burst. IBHS notes that interior water damage ranges from slow leaks that build over weeks or months to sudden failures, and that washing machines and dishwashers now last about 12 to 13 years. Supply hoses and fill valves fail quietly, often at night. A smart valve does not prevent those failures, but it limits a burst to minutes of water instead of hours.
A smart valve pairs well with other protection. Our plumbing winterization service cuts freeze risk before the season, water leak detection finds slow leaks already under way, and if a pipe does fail, our burst pipe repair line is answered 24/7. To learn more about us, visit our home page.
Local, licensed and insured
Licensed
A smart valve is only as good as the plumbing it sits on. We do licensed, insured plumbing work, so we check the main line, the existing shutoff and your water pressure before installing anything. If the old main valve is seized or the pipe at the entry is corroded, we fix that first. The result is a valve that closes when it should and a manual shutoff that still works.
40+ yrs
Our team has more than 40 years in the plumbing trade, and many of the worst water damage calls we have seen came from small parts: a supply hose, a toilet fill valve, a water heater fitting, a pipe that froze while a family was away. That history shapes where we put sensors and how we set alerts, so the valve catches the failures most likely in your house.
24/7
A smart valve tells you something is wrong. Then you need a plumber. We answer 24/7, so when your phone shows a shutoff at 2 a.m. or while you are out of town, you can call and talk to someone who can find the leak and repair it. Our customers rate us 4.9 stars across 88 Google reviews, and fast, honest help on calls like that is a big part of why.

These guys were great! A breath of fresh air from the usual contractor/service. They cared about fixing the problem not how much they can charge. I had a same day service need, leak in between floors, the day before a trip. They came out same day and presented multiple solutions as well as keen explanations.
Mr. Robert has amazing customer service and work ethic. He fixed our toilet very quickly and explained everything that he was doing, and even showed us the finished product. Awesome work!
After having issues with my bathroom and kitchen plumbing for a few days, I contacted Plumber Oklahoma City, OK Plumbing & Repair this morning. He told me he was very busy, but would work to schedule our repair in with his team.

Straight answers
Most whole-home smart valves watch the flow of water through your main line. When flow runs far longer than normal, or at a rate that looks like a burst, the valve can alert you and close on its own. Some models also run periodic pressure checks to catch small drips. Wireless sensors on the floor add another trigger at specific trouble spots.
That depends on the model. Some have battery backup and some do not, and most can still be closed by hand. Without Wi-Fi, you lose phone alerts and remote control, though some valves keep running their automatic shutoff rules locally. We walk you through exactly how your valve behaves in an outage before we leave.
On the main water line after it enters the house and after your existing main shutoff, so the valve protects every fixture downstream. Common spots are the garage, a utility closet or near the water heater. The valve needs power for most models and a decent Wi-Fi signal, and we plan around both during the walkthrough.
A flow-sensing valve covers the whole house, but small leaks under a sink can take time to register as abnormal flow. Floor sensors next to the water heater, washer, dishwasher and toilets give an early warning right where water shows up first. Many systems let the sensors tell the valve to close, which is a strong combination.
Yes. We work on residential and commercial plumbing. Offices, small retail spaces and rental properties often go unoccupied overnight and on weekends, which is exactly when an unnoticed leak does the most damage. Larger pipe sizes and fire sprinkler connections need extra planning, and we sort that out during the site visit.
