Your plumbing works hard—until it doesn't.
When you need fixture installations, water heater replacement, drain clearing, or plumbing repairs, you want a contractor who understands how water systems work in Denver homes and knows the altitude challenges, pipe materials, and code requirements that come with the Front Range.
The Handyman Services handles residential plumbing installation and repairs for homeowners across Denver, Westminster, Lakewood, Aurora, and beyond. We're not an emergency call-at-2am service. We're the crew you call for planned projects: kitchen remodels, bathroom plumbing, new sinks and toilets, water heater swaps, pipe replacement, and finishing basements with proper rough-in work.
Sinks, faucets, toilets, garbage disposals, and dishwashers—we install all of it. Whether you're upgrading an old kitchen faucet or replacing a cracked toilet, proper installation matters. A loose fitting or bad seal leads to leaks. We make sure connections are tight, drains slope correctly, and everything meets code. If you're remodeling a bathroom or kitchen, we handle all plumbing fixture work. We work with your designer or general contractor to get the rough-in right, then install finished fixtures so they work and look right.
Denver's older homes often still carry galvanized steel pipe from decades past. These pipes corrode from the inside, reduce water pressure, and eventually fail. If you've got low pressure, discolored water, or pinhole leaks, galvanized replacement might be your answer. We repair leaking joints, replace corroded sections, and upgrade to copper or PEX as needed. For homes with freeze damage to exposed pipes or outdoor hose bibs that fail every winter, we install proper insulation and heat trace to prevent the freeze-thaw cycle from destroying your plumbing.
Slow drains and clogs are aggravating. We use mechanical clearing methods—no chemicals that damage pipes or hurt the environment. For recurring clogs, we locate the problem: root intrusion, mineral buildup, or structural damage. Then we fix it properly instead of just snaking it every year. If a drain line is cracked or crushed, we replace the affected section. We can also install clean-outs or upgrade drainage in basements and yards.
When you're tearing out an old bathroom or kitchen, plumbing is a core part of the project. We do the rough-in work before drywall goes up, then install finished fixtures and test everything. We coordinate timing with electricians and framers so the project moves forward without delays. We handle vent stack routing, drain slopes, supply line placement, and fixture hookup. If you're adding a half bath in a basement or moving fixtures, we plan the work to meet code and fit your design.
Finishing a basement means adding plumbing where it doesn't exist. We plan drain and vent routing, size drains for proper flow, and install supply lines. Basement bathrooms need careful attention to slope and drainage—we get it right the first time. We also handle outdoor hose bibs, yard irrigation shut-offs, and properly insulated exterior water lines so frost doesn't destroy them every winter. In Denver, proper freeze protection isn't optional.
We’ve worked on hundreds of Denver homes. We know the plumbing challenges that come with altitude, older housing stock, freeze-thaw cycles, and mineral-heavy water. Galvanized pipe, pressure regulators, expansion tanks, freeze-proof design—we understand what works at 5,200 feet.

Yes. Though we do focus on planned plumbing projects: fixture installations, water heater replacement, pipe repair, and remodel work. For emergency calls at night or on weekends, contact us immediately at 720-388-5802
A single fixture installation—sink, faucet, toilet, or disposal—usually takes 1-3 hours depending on complexity. If we're removing old plumbing, dealing with rough walls, or custom piping, it may take longer. We give you a timeline when we quote the job.
Water heaters typically last 10-15 years depending on water quality and maintenance. At 15 years, failure is close. Replacing it now means you choose the timing and get a modern, efficient model. Waiting until it breaks means emergency replacement, higher cost, and no hot water for your family. We recommend replacement at age 10-12 for most Denver homes.
Several things: mineral buildup in old galvanized pipe, a closed or partially closed shut-off valve, a clogged aerator on the faucet, or altitude effects on your regulator. We diagnose the cause and fix it. If it's galvanized pipe, replacement often solves the problem permanently.
Copper is durable, code-approved, and works for any application. It's more expensive and requires soldering. PEX is flexible, cheaper, and faster to install. Both are code-approved in Colorado. For buried lines and freeze-prone areas, either works fine if properly insulated. We recommend based on your specific job.
Most plumbing work requires a permit in Denver and surrounding jurisdictions. Inspections ensure work meets code. We handle permits and inspection scheduling. The cost is built into our quote.
Insulate exposed pipes in crawlspaces, attics, and exterior walls. Install heat tape on at-risk lines. Open cabinet doors under kitchen and bathroom sinks to let warm air circulate. Keep your home at least 55 degrees during cold snaps. For hose bibs, use freeze-proof models or install shut-offs inside with a drain on the exterior line. We can install freeze protection during any plumbing project.
Yes. We coordinate timing, follow the project schedule, and work alongside other trades. We're used to remodel chaos. Just introduce us early so we can plan rough-in work and make sure everything flows properly.

I had a few things around the house that needed attention — a leaking kitchen sink, a loose faucet, and a couple of light fixtures that needed to be replaced. The handyman showed up on time, worked efficiently, and explained everything he was doing. Everything works perfectly now and the price was very reasonable. I’ll definitely call again for future projects.
We hired them to mount a large TV above our fireplace and install some shelving in the living room. The installation looks fantastic and everything is perfectly level and secure. He was very professional, clean, and clearly knew what he was doing. It’s hard to find reliable help these days, but this company is the real deal.
Our toilet started constantly running and I couldn’t figure out what was wrong. The handyman came out the same day, diagnosed the issue quickly, and replaced the parts inside the tank. The repair was fast and now it works like new. Super friendly service and very knowledgeable.
We had several small projects piling up around the house — a towel rack that came loose, a cabinet door that wouldn’t close properly, and a bathroom fixture that needed to be replaced. Instead of calling multiple companies, we had them handle everything in one visit. The work was high quality and done much faster than we expected.
Excellent experience from start to finish. They installed a new kitchen faucet, fixed a slow draining sink, and even helped adjust a door that had been sticking for months. Everything was done professionally and the workspace was left spotless. It’s great knowing we now have a dependable handyman to call.
