Stopped Drains Keep Us Moving

Running a drain cleaning service is a pretty demanding job. Some clients have objects blocking their drains today and we’re running out to remove them. Other clients have drains that are slowly accumulating grease, hair, soap, and stuff that really shouldn’t go down the toilet and will be calling us next week, or the week after. It’s a good thing we love our job because drains are always clogging and we’re back out again to help.

You Can Call Us Before, During, or After Your Plumbing Crisis

Of course, plumbing disasters are often surprises, so at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Myrtle Beach, we come, night or day, to provide drain service because that’s what we do. We do a lot more, of course, since we’re general plumbers. That means that whatever’s wrong with your plumbing is familiar territory for us. Best of all, we can often identify and correct slow-moving drain problems before they become drain cleaning service emergencies. If your toilet is flushing slowly, your sink doesn’t empty like it should, or your garbage disposal isn’t devouring your waste, let us take a look at it and do some preventive work.

The Security of Knowing You’ve Got Ben Franklin Plumbing on Speed Dial

Our plumbing and drain service clients in the Myrtle Beach, SC area count on us to provide quality Benjamin Franklin Plumbing service around the clock when emergencies arise. Whether it’s a flood in the laundry room this afternoon or the dreaded overflowing toilet at midnight, we want you to know that our expert plumbers are ready to find the cause and fix it before things get worse. We know that stuff happens, and we love to take care of it and help keep your home dry and sanitary.

Taking Care of Your Plumbing To-Do List

In addition to drain cleaning service, why not take advantage of our plumbing maintenance services? We can help you clear off your to-do list and take care of leaky faucets, noisy pipes, run-on toilets, and even the installation of new faucets and other fixtures. Do you have questions about installations or upgrades you’re planning? When we’re there taking care of your plumbing needs, we can talk about that, too. Our expert plumbers can finish these to-do jobs down to the last detail, making sure that you’ll be satisfied with every one. If there are missing shut-off valves we can add them for future security, and if you have any drain plug mechanisms that need repairing in your bathroom sinks, let us take care of them.

A Video Tour of Your Pipes

An important part of our drain cleaning service is our video inspection capability. We can run a small camera into your pipe and actually see what the problem is, from lost jewelry to a damaged pipe as well as different types of clogs, and take the appropriate approach to fix the problem. We can determine where in the pipe it is, too, which can help us in recommending strategies. If there’s an object down the drain, using a plunger might just push it further, and the wrong kind of auger might chew it up and create a bigger clog. If we see a clog of grease and hair, though, we might suggest hydro jetting to give your pipe a clean sweep instead of just breaking through the blockage.

When Drains Back Up Together, It Could Be a Bigger Issue

If several of your drains are backing up, especially on the lower levels of your home, we suggest that you call our drain cleaning service as soon as possible. This can be caused by a single trouble source: your sewer line. We’re sewer experts as well, and this is usually another job for our video inspection and diagnosis capabilities. If there’s trouble in your main sewer line, we can identify the cause, suggest appropriate repair or replacement techniques, and possibly save you a lot of trouble, time, and cost.

Sewers

Sewer repairs in Myrtle Beach, SC these days can be a lot simpler and less messy than the traditional full-length trench and pipe replacement. From drain cleaning service to sewer line cleaning, patching, and relining, we take care of restoring your flow throughout your sanitary systems.

Leaks, Noises, and Slow-Flowing Water

Our drain cleaning service takes care of slow-moving drain lines, and we also can help when your water supply lines are not providing the pressure you need. When pipes are making loud and disruptive noises, and when you suspect that there’s a leak, call us right away. We have the equipment to increase water pressure, suppress “water hammer” pressure spikes that can damage equipment connected to your pipes, and locate hidden pipe leaks in walls or under concrete slabs without having to cut in to locate them. We have lots of technology to diagnose problems and, when we make repairs, we do it expertly so you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your home.

Washers, Dishwashers, and Garbage Disposals

Drain cleaning service calls can also involve the drains for washing machines and dishwashers, and the functionality of garbage disposals. These can be particularly problematic situations because these devices process a lot of water and often at high speed, producing astonishing backups when they are blocked. For garbage disposals, it can be hard to remember all the different ways that the device can be clogged with slippery, hard and damaging, or soft and P-trap clogging material.
