Krum, TX — Community Growth Partner
Krum is growing fast, and Haltex Plumbing is growing with you. From new construction rough-ins to well-to-city-water transitions, we bring Denton County plumbing expertise to every Krum home and business.
Krum is experiencing a transformation that few people outside of Denton County fully appreciate. What was once a quiet rural community along FM 1173 is rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after addresses for families and builders looking for quality land and quality schools at a price point that has not yet caught up with neighboring cities. New subdivisions are breaking ground at a pace that has stretched local trade services thin, and many Krum homeowners — both new and established — have struggled to find a plumber who understands the specific demands of this transitional community.
Haltex Plumbing has been serving the Krum area since long before the current building boom. We remember when most service calls in Krum involved well water systems, rural septic connections, and the occasional emergency on a property miles from the nearest fire hydrant. Today, we are just as likely to be roughing in plumbing for a brand-new home in one of the Cross Roads area developments as we are repairing a well pressure tank on a longtime Krum family's property. That range of experience — from rural homesteads to modern subdivisions — is what sets us apart from plumbers who only know one type of construction.
For homeowners navigating the transition from well and septic to city water and sewer, Haltex provides end-to-end guidance. We assess your existing plumbing, determine what modifications are needed for the new municipal connection, handle the physical transition work, and ensure everything meets current Texas plumbing code. We have helped dozens of Krum families through this process, and we know the questions to ask and the pitfalls to avoid.
Our Services
New construction, upgrades, and maintenance for Krum's evolving community.
Krum's building boom needs plumbers who can keep pace. We provide complete new construction plumbing from underground rough-in through final trim-out, working with builders and homeowners to deliver systems that meet code and exceed expectations.
As Krum connects more homes to municipal water, backflow prevention becomes essential for properties with irrigation systems. We provide certified testing, repair, and replacement of backflow assemblies required for code compliance.
From simple toilet clogs to stubborn main-line blockages, our drain technicians use professional cable machines and camera inspection equipment to diagnose and clear Krum's toughest drain problems.
Preventive drain maintenance keeps your Krum home's plumbing flowing smoothly. We offer scheduled cleaning services for kitchen drains, main sewer lines, and floor drains that help prevent emergency backups and costly repairs.
Why Choose Us
A Denton County plumber with deep roots and the capacity to keep pace with Krum's growth.
Krum's plumbing landscape spans everything from decades-old well systems to brand-new PEX installations. Our team has experience with both, which means we can accurately diagnose and repair whatever your Krum property requires without guesswork.
We work with several builders active in the Krum and Cross Roads area. Our new construction plumbing meets or exceeds Texas plumbing code requirements, and our pre-inspection pass rate is among the highest in Denton County.
Switching from a private well to city water involves more than just connecting a new pipe. We evaluate pressure requirements, water quality changes, softener needs, and heater compatibility to ensure the transition is smooth and your home's plumbing performs optimally on the new water source.
We do not inflate pricing for Krum or other communities outside of Denton city limits. Our pricing structure is consistent across our entire service area because we believe distance from headquarters should not dictate how much you pay for quality plumbing.

"We built our home near Cross Roads and the original builder's plumber was terrible — leaks in the walls within six months. Haltex came out, found three defective connections, repaired everything properly, and we have not had a single issue since. Now they are our go-to for anything plumbing related. Wish we had used them for the original build."

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the questions Krum homeowners ask us most often.
Yes, new construction plumbing is one of our specialties. We handle everything from the underground rough-in to the final trim-out including fixture installation. We work with builders, general contractors, and individual homeowners building custom homes in the Krum area. Our work meets or exceeds all Texas plumbing code requirements and we coordinate all required inspections.
The transition affects several aspects of your plumbing. City water typically has higher and more consistent pressure than a well system, which may require installing a pressure regulating valve. The water chemistry is different, which can affect your water softener settings or eliminate the need for one. Your water heater may need its temperature and pressure relief valve checked. We handle all of these adjustments as part of our transition service.
Converting from septic to city sewer involves connecting your home's drain line to the municipal sewer main, properly decommissioning the septic tank (typically by pumping, collapsing, or filling with sand), and verifying all drain connections meet current code. We handle the plumbing side of this conversion and can coordinate with excavation contractors for the sewer tap and trenching work.
Yes, we serve the entire Cross Roads and Krum area including all new developments along FM 1173, FM 156, and the surrounding rural properties. Cross Roads is experiencing significant residential growth, and we are actively providing both new construction plumbing and service calls to homeowners throughout the area.
During a new construction plumbing inspection, key items to verify include proper pipe sizing and support, correct slope on drain lines, adequate cleanout access, proper venting of all fixtures, secure connections at all fittings, and correct water heater installation including expansion tank and proper venting. We provide detailed inspection reports and are happy to walk you through our findings.
For preventive maintenance, we recommend having your main sewer line cleaned every 18 to 24 months, especially if your property has mature trees near the sewer line. Kitchen drains benefit from annual cleaning to remove grease buildup. Homes with a history of drain issues may benefit from more frequent maintenance on a schedule we can customize based on your specific situation.
