-
What should I do if a pipe freezes for bursts? Apply Now
If a pipe freezes or bursts, turn off the main water supply immediately and contact an emergency plumbing service. Acting quickly will help prevent severe water damage.
-
How can I prevent frozen pipes in South Carolina? Apply Now
While freezing temperatures are rare along the Grand Strand, pipes can freeze during cold snaps. By insulating exposed pipes, sealing drafts, disconnecting outdoor hoses, and keeping your faucets dripping slightly during freezing temperatures, you will reduce the risk of damaged pipes.
-
Why do I run out of hot water? Apply Now
Running out of hot water may be caused by sediment buildup in your water heater, an undersized water heater, faulty heating elements, or increased household water demand. A licensed plumbing professional can evaluate, repair, or recommend replacement, if needed.
-
How do I know if I have a water leak? Apply Now
Typical signs of a water leak include unexplained increases in your water bill, damp spots, water spots on walls and ceilings, standing water or damp ground in your yard, sounds of dripping water when faucets are turned off, reduction in water pressure, foul odor or mildew smell, or visible dripping water from exposed pipes. If you suspect your home has a water leak, a plumbing professional can detect leaks by using industry-leading technology and equipment.
-
Are smart leak detection systems worth the investment? Apply Now
Yes. Smart leak detection systems monitor water usage and alert homeowners to leaks. Many South Carolina homeowners install these systems to prevent water damage, especially for vacation or secondary homes. Some insurance companies will offer a discount for leak detection systems.
-
What plumbing maintenance should be done annually? Apply Now
Annual plumbing maintenance should include water heater inspections, fixture inspections, pressure testing, and leak checks. Preventative maintenance helps avoid costly emergency repairs.
-
What plumbing upgrades add the most to my home value? Apply Now
High-value plumbing upgrades to boost efficiency, comfort, and buyer appeal in South Carolina homes include tankless water heaters, water filtration systems, leak detection, and updated fixtures.
-
Why does my water smell? Apply Now
Odors in your water may be a sign of bacteria, sulfur, water heater issues, or old plumbing lines. A plumbing professional can test and recommend filtration or treatment solutions for clean, fresh-smelling water.
-
Can plumbing issues increase my water bill? Apply Now
Absolutely. Your water bill can increase significantly from hidden leaks, running toilets, broken pipes, and dripping faucets. Addressing these plumbing problems early will help reduce waste and lower your monthly bill.
-
Should I worry about my faucet dripping? Apply Now
Yes. Dripping faucets waste water and increase your water bill over time. This can also be an indicator of worn components or water pressure issues that should be repaired.
