Odessa’s Local Plumber, Based Right Here on Byrd Drive

Formula Plumbing’s shop is at 13311 Byrd Dr in Odessa. We’re not driving in from across the bay. When you call (727) 500-2643, you reach our office, and a plumber from down the road comes out.

Common Plumbing Problems in Odessa Homes

Well water that smells, stains or scales up

Many Odessa homes get their water from a private well. Florida well water is often hard, and a lot of it carries iron or sulfur. That’s the rotten egg smell, the orange ring in the toilet, and the white crust on faucets and shower heads. Hard water also shortens the life of your water heater. We install water softeners and filtration systems sized to your water, so you get the fix that matches the problem, not the most expensive one.

Low water pressure on a well

If the pressure drops in the whole house, the cause can be a clogged filter, a failing valve, a hidden leak, or the well equipment itself. We check the plumbing first: filters, valves, fixtures and leaks. If the problem is the well pump or pressure tank, we’ll tell you so you call the right company, instead of paying for repairs that won’t fix it.

Drains backing up on a septic system

On a septic home, a slow or backed-up drain can be a clog in the line or a full tank. We clear clogged drain lines with a drain machine or hydro jetting and run a camera to see what’s going on. If the line is clear and the tank is the problem, we’ll tell you straight so you can call a septic company, instead of paying us to clear a line that isn’t the problem.

Water heaters that wear out early

Hard water settles minerals in the bottom of a tank. An unflushed tank loses hot water and fails sooner. If your water heater is past 10 years old and the hot water runs out faster than it used to, it’s time for an honest look. We repair and replace tank and tankless water heaters. If yours is leaking, start with our water heater leak repair guide.

Hidden leaks

A water bill that jumps, a well pump that keeps kicking on with nothing running, or a wet spot that won’t dry out usually means a leak. We find it with leak detection before we open a wall or floor.
