South Florida Building Contractor
Plumbing Repairs & Service
Leaks, re-pipes, water heaters, and drain problems handled by one accountable building contractor.
A slow drip behind a wall and a burst supply line are the same problem at different speeds. Both get worse, and both cost more the longer they sit. We handle plumbing repairs for commercial buildings, family homes, and rental properties across the region.
Red Spade Repairs is a licensed building contractor under CBC 1269880, and our crews have managed repair work in Broward and Palm Beach since 2012. We bring in and coordinate the licensed plumbing trades, so a single accountable contractor owns the whole job from diagnosis to the final test.
For AirBnb and short-term-rental owners the math is brutal, because a failed water heater on a Friday cancels a weekend of bookings. We move fast, and we tie plumbing work into ongoing rental property maintenance when owners want one team watching the whole unit.
Most plumbing calls fall into a few buckets. Leaks at fixtures and supply lines, aging galvanized pipe that needs a full re-pipe, water heaters that quit, and drains that back up. We diagnose which one you actually have before quoting a fix, because a slow drain and a collapsed line look identical until someone runs a camera.
Re-pipes are common in older South Florida homes where the original galvanized or polybutylene supply has reached the end of its life. We open only what we need to, swap the runs, and patch the walls back so the repair does not turn into a remodel.
Water heaters get diagnosed honestly. A failed element is a same-visit fix, while a tank that has rusted through is a replacement, and we tell you which one you are looking at. For commercial kitchens and multi-unit buildings the stakes are higher, so we coordinate the work around your hours.
Because we run the job as the building contractor, plumbing rarely lives alone. A leak that soaked a ceiling often needs drywall and sometimes electrical repair near the water damage, and we handle that under one number. If a hidden leak turns into a permit issue, our code violation resolution clears it. Our repair work reaches Palm Beach County as well as the Keys.
How We Handle a Plumbing Repair
Diagnose the Cause
We locate the real source with cameras and leak detection before quoting, so you pay to fix the problem and not a guess.
Scope and Coordinate
We bring in the licensed plumbing trade and lay out the work, timing it around your tenants, guests, or business hours.
Make the Repair
Our licensed and insured crews complete the leak repair, re-pipe, water heater swap, or drain work to code.
Test and Restore
We pressure-test the fix, patch any wall or floor we opened, and confirm everything drains and holds before we leave.

SOUTH FLORIDA WATER SYSTEMS
Why Older Coral Springs Pipes Fail Early
The water here is hard, the slabs are poured on sandy fill, and a lot of the housing stock dates to a building boom that used pipe materials we now know fail early. That combination means South Florida plumbing wears out on its own schedule, and a generic fix often misses the real cause.
Slab homes are the trickiest. A supply line run under a concrete slab can leak for weeks before anyone sees a stain, and by then the bill includes flooring. We use leak detection to find the break before opening the floor, which keeps a small repair small.
For rental owners along the coast and in the inland Broward suburbs, the worry is a failure between guests. We can stage a quick response so a clogged main or dead water heater does not sit through a check-in. That same coordination covers our Broward County repair work and the commercial accounts we manage.
