Drain Surgeon Plumbing & Heating | Expert Plumbing Company in New Canaan, CT

A thorough plumbing inspection by Drain Surgeon can identify early warning signs that often lead to basement flooding, such as slow-draining floor drains, sump pump issues, or hairline cracks in pipes. We check your main sewer line for blockages or root intrusion—a common problem in our area—and assess the condition of all drainage systems. Catching these problems early allows for proactive repair, preventing major water damage and costly cleanup from unexpected basement floods.

Yes, low water pressure is a classic symptom of internal pipe corrosion, especially in older New Canaan homes with galvanized steel pipes. As corrosion builds up inside the pipes, it restricts water flow. We can perform a diagnostic inspection to confirm the cause. Our repair or replacement options range from spot-repairing a corroded section to a full re-pipe with modern, corrosion-resistant materials like PEX or copper, restoring your water pressure and protecting your home's plumbing system for the long term.

Absolutely. While a recirculation pump's main benefit is instant hot water, it can also be a strategic choice for homes with aging pipes. By reducing the time water sits stagnant in your pipes, it can help minimize the sediment buildup that accelerates corrosion. During installation, we assess the condition of your hot water lines and can integrate the new pump with a plan to monitor or address existing corrosion. It's an upgrade that improves both convenience and the longevity of your plumbing system.
