Plumbing in Parma

Parma sits in the northwest corner of Canyon County, close to where the Boise River joins the Snake River. The town is home to the Old Fort Boise replica and is surrounded by irrigated farmland. The City of Parma provides water and sewer service in town, while many homes on the surrounding roads use private wells. Older homes near downtown and farm properties with long service lines make up much of Parma’s plumbing work, from Notus out to Wilder.

Common questions from Parma homeowners

How do I find a plumber in Parma, Idaho?

Call (208) 802-8323, describe the problem and give your Parma address or road. Our plumbers work across western Canyon County and explain the options before work starts.

Who is responsible for a leak between the meter and my house?

In most Idaho cities the service line on the house side of the meter belongs to the homeowner, so a leak there is a private plumbing repair. Check with the City of Parma if you are unsure where the line changes hands.

Can you help with plumbing in older Parma homes?

Yes. Older homes often have galvanized supply pipe, cast iron drains or clay sewer laterals. We check the pipe material first and explain whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense.

Common plumbing calls in Parma

PLUMBING IN PARMA

Older homes in Parma

Parma has been a farming town for more than a century, and many in-town homes are decades old. Galvanized steel water lines, cast iron drains and clay sewer laterals are common in older houses. They tend to show their age as low water pressure, rusty water, slow drains and roots in the sewer line.

Each of those has a different fix, so the first step is a proper look at the pipe, including a camera inspection when the sewer line is the suspect.

Water and wells around Parma

The City of Parma supplies water in town, and the groundwater is hard enough to leave scale in water heaters and fixtures. Outside town, homes and farms rely on private wells, which the owner is responsible for testing. Well water often carries sediment that settles in the bottom of the water heater, so a yearly flush helps it last.

Farm properties and long service lines

On rural Parma properties the water line may run a long way from the well or meter to the house, a shop and livestock waterers. A slow leak on a long buried line can go unnoticed for months, showing up only as a pump that runs too often or a wet spot in the yard. Leak detection finds the problem without digging up the whole run.
