Professional Plumbing Contractor in Charlotte, NC 28227 - The Drain Man

In Charlotte, a slow bathroom drain is often caused by a combination of hair, soap scum, and mineral buildup from our water. Our plumbing inspection uses a small, high-resolution camera to travel down your drain and visually identify the exact location and severity of the clog. This allows us to recommend the most effective solution, whether it's a high-pressure water jetting to clear the buildup or a more targeted approach, saving you time and money on guesswork.

Charlotte's expansive clay soil swells when wet and shrinks when dry, which constantly shifts the ground. This movement can stress underground pipes, causing them to crack, separate at the joints, or sag, creating low spots where waste collects. During our inspection, we send a specialized sewer camera through your main line to visually assess the pipe's condition, alignment, and any damage caused by soil shift. This gives us a clear picture so we can advise on the best repair, from a simple seal to a section replacement.

Our thorough inspection is like a health check-up for your pipes. We don't just look for clogs. Using our camera, we examine the interior walls for cracks, corrosion, or grease buildup, check all joints and connections for leaks or separations (common with soil shifting), and identify any bellies (sags) or root intrusions. For bathroom drains specifically, we pinpoint the exact composition of the blockage. We then provide you with a video record and a straightforward explanation of what we found and what needs to be done.
