Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit for plumbing work in my house?

For most repairs, no. For new construction, repiping a significant section of a home, or work that changes your home’s plumbing layout, the City of Sioux Falls Building Services office typically requires one. When in doubt, ask your plumber directly whether the job needs a permit — a reputable one will know and will pull it rather than skip it.

Is Sioux Falls water actually hard, or is that a myth?

It’s real. Most local sources put Sioux Falls water in the 12.8 to 15 grains per gallon range, drawn largely from the Big Sioux Aquifer, which is limestone-rich. That’s firmly in "hard water" territory and is the reason water softeners, extra scale in water heaters, and shorter appliance lifespans come up so often in local plumbing conversations.

Why do my pipes freeze even though I keep my house warm?

Interior temperature doesn’t protect pipes that run through unheated spaces — garages, crawlspaces, or exterior walls, especially on the north side of a house. The fix is usually insulation or a heat trace cable on the specific vulnerable section, not turning up the thermostat.
