Plumber in Clark County
Fast, licensed plumbing in Clark County — about 20 minutes from our Las Vegas shop. Drains, water heaters, leaks, repipes and 24/7 emergencies.
Clark County is home to more than two million people and a plumbing map that confuses even longtime residents. Mike's Drain and Plumbing covers the whole thing — from our shop on S Eastern Ave out to Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City and the unincorporated towns in between.
One call gets you a licensed local plumber for anything from a clogged drain to a burst main, day or night. We know the county because we work in it every day.

Here's what makes the county tricky: much of what people call 'Las Vegas' isn't the City of Las Vegas at all. Enterprise, Paradise, Spring Valley, Sunrise Manor and Winchester are unincorporated towns governed directly by the county — the Strip and the airport are technically in Paradise. That patchwork affects permits, water providers and even which pipes are in the ground.
Water comes from different systems too. Most of the valley is served by the Las Vegas Valley Water District, while Henderson and North Las Vegas run their own utilities. What every corner shares is the same very hard water — around 16 grains per gallon — that scales pipes and shortens the life of water heaters countywide.
From 1950s bungalows downtown with original cast-iron sewers to brand-new 2020s builds out in the southwest, we've worked on nearly every housing era the county has. We understand why a Boulder City home from the Hoover Dam era needs a different approach than a Summerlin house from the 2000s.
Because we're centrally located in the south valley, we reach most of the county's population quickly — and we're genuinely the closest full-service plumber for the far-south communities along the I-15 corridor.
Whatever your address in the county, we bring the same services and the same up-front pricing:
Slow or clogged drains cleared the right way — cabling or hydro jetting, plus camera diagnosis so it stays clear.
Learn moreFrom root intrusion to collapsed clay pipe, we diagnose your sewer with a camera and fix it — trenchless where possible.
Learn moreNo hot water? We repair and replace tank and tankless heaters, and fight the hard-water sediment that kills them early.
Learn moreSpiking water bill or a warm spot on the floor? We locate hidden leaks precisely — no guesswork, no needless demolition.
Learn moreRecurring pinhole leaks or old poly/galvanized pipe? A clean, permitted PEX repipe ends the patch-after-patch cycle for good.
Learn morePlumbing emergency at any hour? A real person answers 24/7 and we dispatch fast from our Silverado Ranch base — damage stopped first, price up front.
Learn moreClark County covers more ground than some states, and the plumbing changes with it. Downtown and the older east side still run original cast-iron sewers and galvanized supply; the master plans in Summerlin and Henderson lean newer, with PEX and tankless. Out in Boulder City you'll find Hoover Dam-era pipe that predates most of the valley entirely.
We bring the full range to all of it — drain cleaning and sewer repair, water heaters, leak detection and whole-home repipes — plus 24/7 emergency service. One licensed county-wide team, one standard of up-front pricing.
From our shop in the 89123 zip we're centrally placed to reach most of the county's two-million-plus residents quickly, and we're genuinely the nearest full-service plumber for the far-south I-15 communities. That location is why 'same-day' actually means same-day for much of the valley.
Beyond speed, it's the way we work: a real person answers, you get a written price before we start, and every repipe, water heater and gas job is permitted and inspected. Licensed by the Nevada State Contractors Board and insured, with over 15 years working these exact homes.

Most of the valley is served by the Las Vegas Valley Water District, while Henderson and North Las Vegas run their own utilities. It matters for meters and permits — but the hard water that scales your pipes is a countywide issue. See our guide on who supplies your water.
