Why Ryan Water Systems

The plumber your neighbors trust

We built our reputation one honest job at a time. Here's what you can count on when you call us.

We Answer the Phone

Most plumbers send you to voicemail after hours. Call us day or night and you'll reach a real person, not a machine.

Upfront, Honest Pricing

You get a clear price before we start — never a surprise on the invoice. No hidden fees, no pressure, no upsells you don't need.

Water Treatment Specialists

It's in our name. From hard-water softeners to whole-house filtration, we solve Central Indiana's water problems for good.

Licensed, Insured & Family-Owned

Owner Josh Ryan and our team stand behind every job. We've served Central Indiana for 13+ years.

We Respect Your Home

Shoe covers on, work area cleaned up, and a satisfaction guarantee. We treat your house like it's our own.

Local Indianapolis Experts

We know Indy homes — aging galvanized pipes, hard water, wet basements, and winter freeze risk. That means faster fixes.

24/7 Emergency Plumbing

A plumbing emergency? We answer the phone.

Burst pipes and backed-up drains don't wait for business hours — and neither do we. Call any time and you'll reach a real person, not a voicemail.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

What to do while you wait

  • Find your main water shut-off valve and turn it off to stop the flooding.
  • Smell gas? Leave the house right away and call us from outside.
  • For a frozen pipe, shut off the main and open a nearby faucet to relieve pressure.
  • Never thaw a pipe with an open flame — you'll risk a fire.
  • Move valuables clear of the water and snap a few photos for insurance.
Call (207) 419-2600

We answer 24/7 and often reach the Indy metro the same day.

Transparent Pricing

Upfront pricing, no surprises

The number-one worry we hear from homeowners is hidden fees. So we do the opposite. You get a clear, written price before any work starts — and that's the price you pay.

We price by the job, not by the hour, so a tricky repair never costs more just because it ran long. Most services come with a free estimate; for in-depth diagnostics like a sewer camera inspection, any small diagnostic fee goes toward the repair when you hire us.

What affects your price

  • The specific problem and the parts it needs
  • How easy the fixture or pipe is to reach
  • Whether it's a straightforward repair or a full replacement
  • Emergency or after-hours timing
  • Permits required for gas or sewer work
We accept cash, all major credit cards, and checks.

Customer Experience

Rated 4.8 stars by Indianapolis homeowners

We've earned our reputation one job at a time. Here's what real customers say about working with us.

4.8(18 Google reviews)
Ryan did a fantastic job installing a new water heater, changing out a difficult pedestal sink fixture, and fixing our outdoor hose spigot. A pipe that he was not working on happened to burst while he was here and he navigated the situation flawlessly — we had no damage to our belongings due to his quick thinking. He is very easy to get in touch with, reliable, and very knowledgeable about his craft. I highly recommend Ryan and will certainly call him for any of our plumbing needs.

From Our Team

Plumbing tips from your local Indianapolis pros

A little know-how goes a long way. Here's some of what we tell our own neighbors to protect their homes and avoid costly surprises.

Know your main shut-off

Everyone in the house should know where the main water valve is and how to turn it off. In an emergency, it's the difference between a quick mop-up and real damage.

Insulate pipes before winter

Wrap exposed pipes in the basement, crawl space, and garage before the first hard freeze. Here's how to prevent frozen pipes.

Keep grease out of the drain

Never pour grease, coffee grounds, or fibrous scraps down the sink — they're the top cause of the clogged drains we clear.

Test your sump pump each spring

Pour a bucket of water into the pit before storm season to be sure the pump kicks on. A dead sump pump means a wet basement.

Tame Indy's hard water

Central Indiana's hard water scales up your pipes and water heater. A water softener protects every appliance in the house.

Skip the chemical drain cleaner

Store-bought cleaners rarely clear a real clog and can eat away at older pipes. Professional cleaning is safer and lasts far longer.
