For plumbers: we never touch pipe repair. You never touch drying.

Every pipe-repair job our crews open goes to a partner plumber, and every water-damage call you refer gets handled without anyone poaching your customer.

The moment this is for

Your customer’s ceiling is still dripping when you finish the repair.

You fixed the burst line, that’s your job, done right. But the cavity behind it is soaked, the homeowner is asking you what to do about the carpet, and you’re not in the drying business. Hand them a number you trust: we show up fast, dry and document to IICRC standard, and your name comes out of it looking better. Then it runs the other way, when our crews open a wall and find failed pipe, we don’t repair it. That call goes to you.

How it works

How we work with plumbers

Refer with one text

Your customer’s name and number, or give them ours. A real person calls within 5 minutes, and you get a confirmation that we did.

We dry, you’re done

Extraction, drying, insurance documentation, handled. Your customer hears your name praised, never pitched.

Repairs flow back

Pipe failures we find on your referrals, and on our own jobs, route to our partner plumbers, in rotation, no kickbacks.

What you get

The working arrangement

  • A hard commitment in writing: Highwater performs no plumbing repairs, ever
  • Pipe-repair referrals from our jobs, the two-way street is the whole point
  • 5-minute response on your referrals, 24/7, with confirmation texts back to you
  • Moisture documentation your customer’s insurer accepts without argument
  • A named contact, not a queue, your referrals never enter the general pool
What we never do

We never do the repair. We never quote plumbing. We never hand your customer to another plumber, referrals return to the shop that sent the job, not to whoever’s cheapest this month. And we never pay or take referral kickbacks; the work flowing both ways is the arrangement.

Reasons to work with us

What a Highwater partnership does for you

We make you look good

  • Your customer hears your name praised on-site, never a pitch for services you offer
  • Confirmation texts show your referral was answered within minutes
  • The repair and the dry-out read as one clean job, with your shop’s name on the save

We make your job easier

  • Finish the repair and leave, the drying questions are ours
  • One text hands off the loss, day or night, no forms in the truck
  • We stage around your schedule when repair and dry-out overlap

Your customers come out ahead

  • On-site within 90 minutes, extraction started the same visit
  • Insurance-ready documentation, usually a deductible-only outcome
  • No musty smell or mold surprise three weeks after the fix
What makes us different

The way we work, in five words

Honest

If you don’t need us, we say so. No invented scope, ever.

Transparent

You see what we see: readings, photos, pricing, before work starts.

Great documentation

Meter logs, thermal images, Xactimate scopes. Files that stand up.

Quick, honest communication

Updates before you ask, bad news included, the same day.

Rapid response

Answered 24/7. On-site within 90 minutes across our service area.

Risk, removed

Accidents and risks this partnership prevents

You fixed the pipe. This is the trouble that never comes back to your counter, because the drying behind your repair was done and verified.

A mold callback after your repair. The cavity gets dried and verified to standard, so nothing grows behind your work.

Shop-vac “drying” that fails. Customers stop improvising when a pro is there in 90 minutes with meters, not guesses.

Blame for secondary damage. Time-stamped readings show the loss was handled after your repair, not caused by it.

A bad restorer wearing your referral. No demo-happy scopes, no upsells, the referral reflects the shop that sent it.

FAQ

Questions we hear

What’s in it for you if you don’t pay referral fees?

Volume, both directions. Plumbers are the first call on most water losses, you see the work before anyone. We’d rather earn a steady two-way relationship than buy one-off leads, and Utah’s anti-kickback climate agrees.

My customer, my relationship. How do you protect that?

Your referral is tagged to your shop in our system. We don’t market to them, we don’t upsell services you could provide, and when the pipe work comes back around it comes to you by name.

What if the job needs repairs mid-dry-out at 2 a.m.?

We call your on-call line first, every time. If you can’t take it, we stabilize (shutoff, caps, temporary isolation) and hold the repair for you, we don’t quietly hand it to someone else.

Do I need a contract or minimum volume?

No. No contracts, no quotas, no exclusivity. Refer when it makes sense for your customer, and the pipe work still flows back.

What should my techs say to the customer?

Keep it simple: “I know a restoration company that will treat you right, want me to text them?” We take it from there and copy you on the confirmation.

Can you bill the homeowner’s insurance directly?

Yes. On covered losses we document to insurer standards and bill the carrier directly; most customers pay their deductible and nothing else.
