Idaho Springs sits at 7,526 feet inside Clear Creek Canyon, and that height changes how water moves through your pipes. Homes and businesses here deal with rocky canyon ground, steep lots, and a mix of century-old buildings next to newer builds. If you search for a plumber in Idaho Springs, you want someone who already knows this canyon, not a crew driving up from the flatlands for the first time.



Colorado Water Works holds Master Plumber License #0004643, and our team has spent years fixing plumbing problems unique to mountain towns along I-70. We handle everything from private water lines on steep hillside lots to full commercial systems for shops near downtown. Every job gets checked against the ground it sits on, not just a generic checklist.

We run this as a family-owned business, and it shows in how we treat your home. Whether your property sits near the historic district or up toward Chicago Creek, we show up ready to fix the problem the first time. Small-town work means your plumbing gets treated like it matters, because up here, it does.

Plumbing emergencies move fast at elevation. Cold air drops quicker here than it does in Denver, and a frozen line can crack open in hours. Our emergency team answers calls day and night for burst pipes, sewer backups, water heater failures, and gas line problems across Idaho Springs and the canyon.

Our trucks carry what's needed to fix most mountain plumbing problems in one visit. We check the whole system before we start, so we catch related issues before they turn into a second emergency call. That matters more up here, where a return trip up the canyon costs you real time.



So when a pipe bursts at 2 a.m. in January, you call one number and we come. Fast response protects your home from water damage and keeps a bad night from turning into a bad week.

Businesses across Silverthorne, from outlet-mall retailers to mountain lodges, rely on us for system design, upkeep, emergency repairs, and water heater support. We build plans around high-usage plumbing so a busy tourist season does not turn into a shutdown.

Professional Drain Cleaning Services

Slow and clogged drains show up often in Idaho Springs, especially in homes built during the town's mining boom. We clear kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, and main sewer lines using video inspection and mechanical cleaning to find the real problem, not just the symptom.



Routine drain cleaning keeps backups from happening in the first place. It also saves you money by catching small clogs before they turn into a full line replacement.

Hydrojetting & Advanced Drain Solutions

For drains that won't clear with a standard snake, we use hydrojetting. High-pressure water blasts through grease, scale, and root buildup without digging up your yard.

One thing we see constantly on Idaho Springs calls is old cast iron and galvanized pipe finally giving out after decades underground. Hydrojetting often clears these lines and buys homeowners more time before a full sewer line replacement becomes the only option.

Our Master Plumber holds license #0004643 and has worked across Colorado's mountain towns for years, including the elevation shifts, rocky ground, and freeze cycles unique to Clear Creek Canyon. As a family-owned business, we focus on honest pricing talk and real fixes, not upsells.



We work to solve your problem on the first visit whenever the job allows it. That's what small-town plumbing should feel like: direct, fast, and built to last through another mountain winter.

Whether you need sewer line repair, a drain cleared, or emergency service tonight, Colorado Water Works handles plumbing work across Idaho Springs and the Clear Creek Canyon. We work under Master Plumber License #0004643, so you know the job gets done to code.



Call (720) 320-6981 any time you need us. Colorado Water Works is based at 3275 S Santa Fe Dr, Englewood, CO 80110, and our crews travel throughout Denver Metro, the Foothills, and Colorado's mountain towns, including Idaho Springs.

Professional Water Line Services

We repair water lines, find leaks, and replace old pipe throughout Idaho Springs properties. Elevation and canyon ground both affect water pressure, and upgrading old lines often solves problems homeowners assumed were just "how water works up here."

Our excavation team handles underground repairs with care on tight mountain lots. We work fast but never skip steps just to save time.

Licensed Gas Line Services

All gas line installs, repairs, and appliance hookups follow Colorado code and get handled by trained technicians. Cold mountain winters make a working gas line more than a convenience, and we treat every gas job with the care it needs.
