About Howard's Plumbing & Rooter Service in Newport News, VA

Our comprehensive plumbing inspection checks for vulnerabilities that heavy rains and flooding can exploit. We assess your main sewer line for potential backflow issues, ensure sump pumps are operational, and identify any weak points in your drainage system. This proactive service helps prevent costly water damage when storms hit our area.

Yes, grease clogs are very common here. During an inspection, we use specialized drain cameras to visually confirm grease buildup within your pipes. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location and severity of the clog, ensuring we use the most effective, targeted method to clear it without guesswork or unnecessary disruption.

Be alert for signs like multiple slow drains, gurgling sounds from toilets, or water backing up in showers or sinks. These can indicate that floodwater has overloaded or damaged your sewer lines. A prompt inspection from our team can identify the extent of the problem and prevent more extensive damage to your home's plumbing foundation.
