Blalock Plumbing & Repair - Myrtle Beach's Qualified Plumbing Service

Our comprehensive plumbing inspection includes a detailed evaluation of your sump pump system. We check for proper operation, test the backup battery (if equipped), inspect the discharge line for clogs or freezing potential, and ensure the pump is correctly sized for your home's needs. Given our area's susceptibility to heavy rain, this proactive check can identify wear, sediment buildup, or mechanical issues before they leave your basement or crawl space vulnerable to flooding.

Using a specialized camera, we visually inspect the interior of your main sewer line from your home to the city connection. We look for common local issues like root intrusion from our abundant tree life, cracks or breaks in older pipes, grease blockages, and signs of bellied pipes where sagging creates waste traps. Identifying these problems early through an inspection can prevent a complete sewer backup—a messy and unhealthy emergency—and allows for more manageable, targeted repairs.

A pre-purchase plumbing inspection from a local expert is a smart investment. Beyond checking fixtures, we assess the health of the entire system, including the water heater, water pressure, and the condition of pipes that may be prone to corrosion in our coastal climate. Most importantly, we can identify hidden issues like minor leaks or slow drains that indicate bigger problems with the main line or drainage, potentially saving you from unexpected and costly repairs after you move in.
