Alex Plumber - Commerce's Emergency Plumbing Company

A professional plumbing inspection allows us to assess the current condition of your kitchen drain lines. We can identify early buildup of grease and food particles before they cause a complete blockage. For many homes in Commerce, we can also recommend and install preventive measures, like a grease trap or a different drain configuration, to handle our local hard water and common cooking habits, saving you from a messy and disruptive clog down the line.

Homes in Commerce with original galvanized plumbing should watch for signs like persistent low water pressure, discolored (rusty) water, small leaks around pipe joints, or visible corrosion on the pipes themselves. These pipes have a limited lifespan and are prone to internal rust and scale buildup. During an inspection, we use specialized tools to check the interior condition and water flow, giving you a clear picture of your system's health and helping you plan a replacement before a major leak occurs.

While store-bought cleaners offer a quick fix, they are often too harsh for older pipes common in Commerce and can accelerate corrosion, especially in galvanized lines. More importantly, they rarely dissolve the entire grease clog, which often reforms further down the pipe. A professional inspection locates the exact point and cause of the blockage. We then use safe, mechanical methods like hydro-jetting to completely clear the line without damaging your pipes, providing a longer-lasting solution for your home.
