Stop Leaks Before They Start, Automatically

The worst water damage happens when nobody is home. A supply line lets go, a water heater splits, and by the time you find it the floor and the drywall are gone. A smart shutoff system watches the flow at your main and closes the valve automatically the second it sees a leak, and leak sensors under sinks and behind appliances catch trouble early. This is the exact setup that saved Court’s own home from two floods, including a water heater he had not replaced at ten years. We size it, install it, and set it up on your phone so you get the alert wherever you are, and the water stops whether you are there or not.

Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. Emergency service runs 24/7. We come inside a 3-hour appointment window.

The System That Protects Every Other System

A leak doesn’t knock. It seeps, bursts, or drips silently until the damage is done. From pinhole corrosion behind a wall to a burst pipe in the crawlspace, most homeowners don’t see it coming.

Rare Breed installs smart shutoff systems that do. Using pressure sensors, flow monitors, and real-time alerts, these devices detect irregularities and automatically shut off your water before the damage begins. Whether you’re protecting a vacation property, remodeling your main residence, or simply tired of risk. We build in leak protection that’s proactive, not reactive.

Every job is measured against our A STEPP standards, backed by a 3-hour appointment window and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. The office is open Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and emergency service runs 24/7. Call (385) 449-0144 or book online.

Concerned about frozen pipe bursts?

Utah winters are brutal on pipes. We install systems that detect abnormal pressure drops and temperature swings, and shut down water before a freeze turns into a flood.

What it’s like to be cared for by a team that shows up with purpose, listens with respect, and follows through with heart. The kind of experience that stays with you, long after the work is done.

Thomas was magnificent; flushed my plumbing and took care of all my other needs (plumbing)

joe G.

Great experience with Thomas and Nathan doing the diagnosis and getting things figured out. Got the sink repaired and were great to work with.

Eric G.

Quick and consistent great service. Thomas and Nathan are heros of plumbing!

Michael J.

Colson did a fantastic job fixing my new tankless water heater. He went the extra mile and rerouted the venting to make it more efficient. He also fixed a drain and added the necessary shutoff valves for flushing maintenance at no additional charge. I will definitely call Rare Breed again.

JaeLynn W.

Got to work with Thomas and Nathan. They were awesome, very knowledgable, gave me options and explained my choices. Very happy with service

Conner M.

Chandler was great! He came out and checked all the plumbing to make sure we didn’t have any inventing problems. Now we can feel confident going into the winter months.

Allison G.

Great service and super fast resolution! Thanks!

We had a real problem with our 6 year old tankless water heater. Multiple plumbers came here to evaluate how to repair and install replacement parts. In each case, it was obvious they had no idea or experience working on tankless heaters.

On a referral, I called Rare Breed, to see if they had anyone trained and experienced on our heater. After evaluating the bids and impressions from no less than 4 other plumbing companies, all of which obviously had no expertise in tankless heaters, it was a true pleasure and relief to hear from Rare Breed, that they had expert plumbers who had experience with tankless and, specifically with our heater. They were not lying! They sent a true expert who was not only experienced and obviously skilled and knowledgeable, Aaron was a true gentleman through out the difficult repair. He arrived on time and made an excellent first impression with a firm handshake and introduction. He was neat and clean with clean organized tools. Aaron is as friendly as if I had a good friend come to work on our heater. He did exactly what needed to be done, with obvious skills and knowledge about our heater. It was a massive job that took 6+ hours of complex and difficult disassembly and the installation of extremely complex parts that had been shipped to me from the manufacturer.

The repair was not cheap but, it was literally less than half of what the previous plumbing company had bid.

Now we once again have a fully functioning tankless heater. I wish we had had the counsel and expert installation of Rare Breed 6 years ago. If we had their help then, we would not be dealing with the problems we are having now, because they would have steered us to a MUCH better manufacturer of tankless heaters but, that is water under the bridge now.

Thank you Aaron and to the company who sent you to us. We will use Rare Breed Plumbing for ALL our future plumbing needs and, if we do need their help again, we would also hope they would again send Aaron.

J. H.

Great guys, great service? Fair price. Really hope that I don’t need them but I am confident that Nathan and Thomas will give me superior service, all with a smile. Really good guys and refreshing to work with. Easy to trust!

James L.

Fast, responsive and fair pricing. Thank you!
