Kuna Express Plumbing is an emergency and general plumbing service based at 1200 N Meridian Rd in Kuna, Idaho. We work on homes and small businesses in Kuna, and we take calls in nearby Canyon County towns such as Nampa. Everything starts with a phone call to (208) 679-8357, which is answered 24/7.
How we work
You call
Dispatch asks what the water is doing and where, then tells you how to limit the damage.
A plumber is scheduled
Emergency calls come first. Planned work is booked for a time that suits you.
You get the price first
The plumber explains the work and the price before anything starts.
We test the work
The repair is checked for leaks before the plumber leaves.
What we do not promise
We do not promise an arrival time, because traffic, weather and other emergencies change the clock. We do not claim ratings, review counts or years in business that we cannot show you. What we promise is a clear price before work, plain talk about what is broken, and a repair that is tested.
Licensing in Idaho
Plumbing in Idaho is licensed by the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses. The state license categories include apprentice, journeyman and contractor, and the public license search on the DOPL website lets you look up any plumber by name. We encourage you to check ours and anyone else you let into your house. Plumbing work in Idaho follows the 2017 Idaho State Plumbing Code, which is based on the 2015 Uniform Plumbing Code.
Why a Kuna base matters
Kuna grew from about 15,000 residents in 2010 to about 24,000 in 2020, and the City of Kuna runs its drinking water from city wells. Being based in the city means we know who to call at the City of Kuna when a problem starts at the street, including the water emergency line at (208) 573-7676 and the sewer emergency line at (208) 573-1511.
What a visit looks like
Plumbers arrive with the information you gave dispatch, so they can bring the likely parts. They start by finding the source: where the water enters, where it goes and what it has already touched. Then they explain the problem in plain words, quote the price for the repair, and wait for your decision before starting.
If the first look shows something bigger, such as a corroded line behind the wall, they tell you and give you the choice. A small repair that holds is better than a large one that is not needed, and a large one that is needed is better explained than hidden.
The kinds of jobs we take
Emergency calls are the reason the line is open all night: burst pipe repair, sewer backups, leaking water heaters and overflowing toilets. Planned work gets the same attention but a calmer schedule. That includes water heater installation, repiping, water softener installation and new fixtures. Businesses can read about commercial plumbing.
Permits and the City of Kuna
Some plumbing work in Kuna needs a permit. The City of Kuna Building Department issues plumbing permits, and its January 2025 application lists work such as water heater replacement, sewer lines, water lines, backflow devices and water conditioning equipment. Work done without a permit can cost double the permit fee. We tell you when a permit may apply and send you to the Building Department at (208) 922-5546 for the specifics.
Honest limits
Some calls are not ours. A water main break on your street belongs to the city. A gas smell belongs to 911 and Intermountain Gas first.
A well pump problem may belong to a well contractor. We say so on the phone instead of booking a visit that cannot help.
What customers can check for themselves
Trust should not rest on our word alone. You can look up any Idaho plumber on the DOPL license search. You can ask the City of Kuna Building Department whether a permit applies.
You can read our service pages before you call and compare what they say to what the plumber tells you. If the two do not match, ask why.
If you want a second opinion on a quote from another company, tell dispatch. We will look at the work and tell you what we see.
