Southern Highlands is one of Enterprise's most distinctive master-planned communities, developed from the late 1990s around its private golf club and rising onto the slopes below the Spring Mountains. Homes range from production tract houses to semi-custom homes and guard-gated custom estates, running from roughly 2,200 to over 5,000 square feet, many on generous lots with pools, spas, and built-in outdoor kitchens. The construction era means original water heaters, supply lines, and pool plumbing are now well into their second decade, and because the community climbs, water pressure varies from street to street, making the pressure regulator the first thing to check on many calls.
The Southern Nevada Water Authority rates the valley's water very hard, at about 280 parts per million or 16 grains per gallon, and it leaves calcium scale inside water heaters, recirculation lines, and fixture valves more quickly than homeowners expect. Emergency plumbing calls in Southern Highlands frequently involve burst supply connectors behind high-end cabinetry or sudden water heater failures in homes where more than one unit serves large square footage. Drain and sewer services are a regular need, and on graded lots yard and pool lines can leak for weeks before anyone notices. Water heater services here often mean upgrading to tankless systems sized for recirculating loops that keep hot water moving through oversized floor plans.
Active Plumbing works throughout Enterprise, including Southern Highlands and nearby communities like Silverado Ranch and Mountain's Edge, bringing the same level of care to every service call. Southern Highlands is in unincorporated Clark County, so permits run through the county, and gate access in the guarded enclaves is arranged in advance. Whether it's descaling a spa heater, relining a sewer lateral, or commissioning a new tankless water heater in a five-bedroom home, the team understands the specific demands this neighborhood places on residential plumbing. Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357 to schedule service.
Local Expertise
The Southern Nevada Water Authority rates the valley's water very hard, at about 280 parts per million. In Southern Highlands' larger homes that means mineral buildup in luxury faucets, rainfall showerheads, thermostatic valves and jetted tubs, reducing flow and shortening their lives. Whole-house treatment protects an expensive system.
Many Southern Highlands homes have pools, spas and long irrigation runs across graded slopes, where cut and fill ground can settle over two decades and stress buried lines. A leak can run unnoticed for weeks and show up first as an unexplained water bill. Pool heater heat exchangers also scale up in very hard water.
Larger Southern Highlands homes commonly have hot water recirculation to deliver instant hot water to distant fixtures. Over time, very hard water scales pumps and check valves, resulting in lukewarm water at far fixtures and a pump that runs without doing its job. Recirculation checks belong in routine maintenance here.
Southern Highlands' outdoor living spaces include built-in grills, fire features, pool heaters and outdoor kitchens on gas. The common problem is a line sized for one appliance that now feeds several, which shows up as poor performance rather than an obvious fault. Where CSST flexible gas tubing is used, correct bonding is part of a safe installation.
Original water heaters in Southern Highlands homes are at or past their rated life, and larger homes often run more than one unit. High incoming pressure on the lower streets and very hard water both shorten heater life, and failed expansion tanks show up as dripping relief valves. Replacement is a good time to reconsider capacity, tankless options and water treatment together.
What we offer in Southern Highlands
A grease trap only protects your drains while it has room to hold fats, oils and grease. Active Plumbing pumps and cleans grease traps and in-ground interceptors for restaurants, hotels, schools and other commercial kitchens across the Las Vegas Valley. We schedule around your service hours and give you a written price before work starts.
Learn more →When a sewer line is blocked or a pump fails, wastewater looks for the nearest opening, and outdoors that is usually a yard cleanout, a parking lot manhole or a wet well lid. We clear the blockage or isolate the line to stop the flow, keep the spill away from storm drains, then remove and disinfect what it reached. Technicians arrive in 30 to 60 minutes anywhere in the valley.
Learn more →A sewage backup in a business is a health problem, a liability problem and a closed door all at once. Active Plumbing contains the area, removes the contaminated water, cleans and disinfects, and then finds and fixes what caused it. We are open 24/7 and arrive in 30 to 60 minutes anywhere in the Las Vegas Valley.
Learn more →A sounding high-level alarm, a pump that runs without stopping or a below-grade drain that will not empty all point to a pumped sewage system in trouble. We find out whether the fault is the pump, the float, the check valve or the control panel before replacing anything. Technicians arrive in 30 to 60 minutes anywhere in the valley.

We extract the sewage, remove what cannot be saved, disinfect and dry the area, then clear the blockage so it does not happen again. Technicians arrive in 30 to 60 minutes anywhere in the valley.

Expert Advice
Have your incoming water pressure checked. Southern Highlands climbs toward the mountains, so lower streets can see high pressure that quietly wears out fixtures, connectors and water heaters, while higher lots can see weak upstairs flow. The pressure regulator is the first thing to check either way.
Watch your water bill. Southern Highlands sits on graded slopes, and long irrigation and pool lines run across cut and fill ground that can settle over two decades. A yard or pool line leak can run for weeks before it shows, so an unexplained jump in usage is worth investigating.
If you are adding an outdoor kitchen, fire feature, pool heater or generator, have the gas line sized to the whole load of every gas appliance, not just the new one. An undersized line shows up as an appliance that never performs properly rather than an obvious fault.

Real reviews from Southern Highlands and nearby Enterprise neighborhoods.
The attic coil condensate was overflowing because the trap went dry. A new trap, cleanout, and a wet-switch shutoff on the furnace. That call was from Boulder Junction. The ceiling stain is history.

A copper sweat joint above the pantry failed after a nearby remodel. They cut back, used a press fitting, and supported the run. We were in Cottonwood Terrace, Summerlin. The pantry ceiling is the only patch we painted.

The house lost water whenever the irrigation clock ran. A dedicated irrigation tap upstream of the PRV with its own shutoff. That call was from Belvedere. Showers no longer starve when the lawn drinks.

Two things. First, the community climbs toward the Spring Mountains, so homes at different elevations see different water pressure: high on the lower streets, which quietly shortens the life of fixtures, connectors and water heaters, and lower than expected on higher lots, especially upstairs. Checking incoming pressure and the pressure regulator explains more complaints here than almost anywhere in the southwest valley. Second, many homes are larger (2,200-5,000+ sq ft) with pools, spas, outdoor kitchens and hot water recirculation, and gas for outdoor living has to be sized to the whole load, not just the new appliance.
Homes from that build era are now 20+ years old. Original water heaters are well past average lifespan, expansion tanks fail silently (a dripping relief valve is often the sign), and pressure regulators, valves and pool plumbing fittings from that period are showing wear. Aging flexible connectors under sinks are a quiet failure risk in homes this age. A 2003 home is also inside the Kitec years (about 1995 to 2007), so orange and blue pipe with brass fittings is worth having checked. Water Heater Services and a supply line inspection are smart starting points.
Yes. The Southern Nevada Water Authority rates the whole valley's water very hard, at about 280 parts per million or 16 grains per gallon, and in Southern Highlands that means extra scale buildup inside tankless heaters, water heater tanks, recirculation lines and premium fixtures. Many homes of this era have a softener loop stubbed in the garage that has never been used. Water Treatment, specifically a whole-home water softener or filtration system, is one of the best investments Southern Highlands homeowners make to protect high-end faucets, showerheads, and appliances.
Active Plumbing holds Nevada State Contractors Board license #0047021, which you can verify at nvcontractorsboard.com, and carries full liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. Southern Highlands is in unincorporated Clark County, so permits and inspections run through the Clark County Department of Building and Fire Prevention. Guard-gated enclaves may ask for insurance documentation at the gate, and you're welcome to request license and insurance documentation before any job starts.
A technician will assess the issue, explain findings clearly, and provide a written estimate before any work begins. In larger Southern Highlands homes, diagnosis may take longer due to multi-zone systems or pool plumbing. After the job, you'll get a summary of what was done. For ongoing concerns, Active Plumbing can be reached at (702) 438-3357 and also serves customers across nearby Enterprise communities.
