Plumbing for The Paseos, a 2000s Summerlin village in ZIP 89138. Original water heaters, expansion tanks and pressure regulators at end of life, tankless descaling, upstairs supply failures and trail-side irrigation leaks.
The Paseos is a Summerlin village built largely through the 2000s on the western side of the community, reached from Far Hills Avenue at the western end of Summerlin Parkway. Desert Moon Road, Antelope Ridge Drive, Fox Hill Drive and Sky Vista Drive run through it past Paseos Park, Fox Hill Park and Vassiliadis Elementary, and it adjoins The Vistas and Stonebridge. Homes are slab-on-grade, mostly two-story, with copper or PEX supply, so there is no galvanized, cast iron or polybutylene here and no repipe work in the sense older parts of the valley need it. What the village does have is a whole generation of equipment reaching end of life at roughly the same time, because it was built in a compressed period.
Emergency plumbing in The Paseos covers burst pipe repair, slab leak detection and repair, electronic leak detection, and whole-home leak detection systems, available around the clock. What shapes this work in The Paseos is the village's compressed build window: homes constructed largely through the 2000s with copper or PEX supply are now hitting the replacement window together, meaning slab leaks, failing angle stops, and end-of-life equipment appear across the neighborhood at the same time. Active Plumbing has worked western Summerlin since 1991 and reaches The Paseos in 30 to 60 minutes.
Slab leak repair in The Paseos involves a choice between breaking the concrete directly over the leak or rerouting the line through walls or the attic. In two-storey plans, a reroute through interior walls requires routing around finished living space on both floors, which adds planning time and affects how the line is run. Caliche beneath the slab makes any spot excavation slower and more costly than in softer ground, which often tips the decision toward a reroute.
Whole-home leak detection system installation is a practical fit for The Paseos because a share of homes sit empty for extended periods. A motorized shutoff valve on the main supply line can close automatically if a burst pipe or continuous flow is detected, limiting damage in an unoccupied house. The Paseos sits in the City of Las Vegas, so permit requirements for the installation should be confirmed with the City of Las Vegas building department for the specific address.
Electronic leak detection is the right first step when a rising water bill points to a yard or irrigation line leak in The Paseos, because the village's trail corridors and common landscape sit close to private lot boundaries. Acoustic and line-tracing tools locate the leak before any digging begins, which matters here because caliche makes excavation slow and expensive. Confirming whether the wet area is on private irrigation or association landscape before detection starts avoids a dispute over who authorizes the repair.
Burst pipe repair calls in The Paseos frequently involve angle stops, braided connectors, and toilet fill valves that are original to a 2000s build and now past sensible service life. These small fittings fail without warning and, in upstairs bathrooms above finished living space, a failed connector causes far more damage than the same failure on a ground floor. Valley water at roughly 280 parts per million accelerates scale buildup inside these fittings, contributing to early failure.

Local Knowledge
Larger floor plans in The Paseos were often built with hot water recirculation pumps, and those original pumps are now reaching end of life. A failed pump does not cause flooding but it does mean long waits for hot water and, in some cases, a continuously running system that drives up energy costs. Replacement is straightforward but the pump location in a two-storey home can require access to a utility space on an upper floor.
A dripping temperature and pressure relief valve in a Paseos home of this age is frequently caused by a failed thermal expansion tank rather than the valve itself. Replacing the valve without checking the expansion tank leaves the underlying pressure problem in place and the new valve will drip again. A two-minute incoming pressure check on every service call catches a regulator that has crept high and is stressing the whole system.
Private irrigation and yard supply lines in The Paseos run close to paseo trail corridors and common landscape. A slow leak in this zone may not produce a wet surface patch because caliche and compacted soil absorb moisture unevenly. The first sign is often a climbing water bill. Establishing whether the wet area is on private or association irrigation before any detection work starts avoids a dispute over who authorizes and pays for the repair.
Two-storey plans with laundry rooms above finished space are a recurring source of emergency calls in The Paseos. An original washing machine hose or plastic supply connector that has never been replaced is past sensible service life in a home of this age. When it fails, water reaches the ceiling and walls of the room below before anyone notices. A laundry pan and braided stainless connectors are proportionate steps in housing of this vintage.
The Paseos sits in the City of Las Vegas, but Summerlin spans both the city and unincorporated Clark County, and the boundary does not follow village names. A contractor who assumes the whole community is one jurisdiction can quote the wrong permit counter, which delays permitted work. Confirming the applicable building department from the parcel address before scheduling any permitted repair avoids that delay.
What we offer in The Paseos
Water running that you cannot stop, sewage coming up through a drain, or no water at all - these do not wait for business hours, and neither does Active Plumbing. A fourth-generation family business serving the valley since 1991, we answer around the clock and send a licensed technician who arrives in 30 to 60 minutes. Our trucks carry common repair parts, so many emergencies are finished in one visit.
Learn more →A burst pipe is a supply line that has split, blown a fitting or corroded through, and it keeps releasing water at full system pressure until someone shuts it off. Active Plumbing has handled these emergencies across the Las Vegas Valley since 1991. We isolate the break, show you what failed, and repair it once you have a written price.
Learn more →A slab leak is a leak in a water line running beneath a home's concrete foundation. Because slab-on-grade construction is standard across the valley, this is a distinct and familiar category of work for us. We locate the leak before any concrete is touched, then explain whether a spot repair or a reroute makes more sense for your house.
Learn more →Electronic leak detection answers one question before any wall, floor or yard is opened: exactly where is the water going? Active Plumbing uses acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and electromagnetic line tracing to find hidden leaks across the Las Vegas Valley. You get the location, the likely cause and your repair options in plain terms.
Learn more →Most water damage gets serious because nobody is home when a pipe or supply line fails. A whole-home leak detection system closes the main for you and sends an alert to your phone. Active Plumbing installs devices such as Flo by Moen and Phyn on the main line and sets them up for how your household actually uses water.

Local Tips
If a relief valve starts dripping on a water heater in a Paseos home, ask the technician to check the thermal expansion tank and incoming pressure before replacing the valve. A failed expansion tank is a common cause, and swapping the valve alone will not stop the drip.
Recirculation pumps on larger Paseos floor plans are now at or near end of life. If hot water takes longer to arrive than it used to, the pump may have failed rather than the water heater itself. Have the pump checked before replacing equipment that is still functional.
If you are planning to install a tankless water heater in The Paseos, ask about descaling intervals at the time of installation. Valley water at roughly 280 parts per million will foul a tankless heat exchanger without regular maintenance, and skipping it can shorten the unit's life and affect warranty coverage.
Before any exterior plumbing equipment is mounted on an outside wall or placed in a side yard, check with both the master association and your village sub-association. Design review in Summerlin is active, and association approval and a City of Las Vegas building permit are separate processes that both may apply.

Real reviews from The Paseos and nearby Las Vegas neighborhoods.
The water hammer from the washer was shaking the hall pictures. Arrestors at the box and a re-secured drop from the attic. We were in The Section Seven, Las Vegas. The house went quiet on spin cycle.

A pinhole choir started on the 1970s copper under the master. Sectional replacement with dielectric unions at the water heater. That call was from The Section Seven. The ceiling stain is the last one we plan to paint.

A tenant's toilet wax failed and soaked the ceiling of unit 2B. Same-day reset, new closet bolts, and a photo report for the file. That call was from Brewery Row. The tenant stayed and the claim never went to the carrier.

Yelp review, October 2025
The Paseos is in the City of Las Vegas, ZIP 89138, so permitted work generally goes through the City of Las Vegas building department. Because Summerlin spans both the city and unincorporated Clark County and the boundary does not follow village names, we confirm the jurisdiction for your address before any permitted job.
Usually not. Homes here were plumbed in copper or PEX, with no galvanized, cast iron or polybutylene. The work at this age is mostly equipment - water heaters, expansion tanks, pressure regulators, recirculation pumps and original connectors - rather than the pipe itself.
Tank water heater installation typically runs $800 to $1,500 in the Las Vegas Valley, and tankless water heater installation $1,500 to $3,500. These are typical ranges, not a quote. Active Plumbing gives a written price before work starts.
Many homes in The Paseos were built with a stubbed softener loop in the garage that was never connected. It gives a straightforward place to install a softener or other treatment system, which helps water heaters and fixtures cope with water at about 280 parts per million.
It can be, as long as you plan for upkeep. In water this hard a tankless heater needs descaling on a regular interval, or performance drops. An exterior unit can also need Summerlin design review, so check with your association before mounting one on an outside wall.
Active Plumbing is open 24/7, and technicians arrive in 30 to 60 minutes anywhere in the valley, including The Paseos and western Summerlin.
Start by confirming the meter moves with every tap closed. If it does, the leak is likely in a supply line, under the slab, or in private irrigation. In The Paseos, irrigation lines running near paseo corridors can leak unseen for weeks. Electronic leak detection using acoustic and thermal tools locates the source without opening walls or digging, and typically runs $150 to $350 in the Las Vegas Valley.
Interior emergency work such as burst pipe repair or slab leak repair does not require association design review. Anything mounted on an exterior wall or visible from the street, such as an exterior tankless unit or a treatment system on a side yard, can require approval from both the master association and the village sub-association before installation. Association approval and a City of Las Vegas building permit are separate tracks where both apply.
The Paseos was built with copper supply, and valley water at roughly 280 parts per million deposits scale inside copper lines over time. Homes here are now in the window where original copper under the slab is reaching the age at which pinhole leaks and joint failures become more common, making a warm floor patch or unexplained usage rise worth investigating promptly with acoustic detection equipment.
