Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to prevent kitchen grease clogs in my Wilmington home?

The best practice is to avoid pouring any grease or oil down the drain. Instead, let it cool and dispose of it in the trash. For homes with frequent issues, we recommend professional drain cleaning and can install a garbage disposal with a high-torque motor to better handle food waste. If you already have a slow drain, contact us for a repair before it becomes a complete blockage.

How can I tell if tree roots are damaging my sewer line?

Common signs in our area include multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, unexplained soggy patches in your yard, or sewage odors. Wilmington's mature trees often seek out sewer lines for water. We use video pipe inspections to accurately diagnose root intrusion and offer solutions from targeted root removal to trenchless sewer repair, which minimizes disruption to your landscaping.

Why is my water heater failing more often, and what are my installation options?

Wilmington's mineral-rich water can accelerate sediment buildup and corrosion in traditional tank water heaters, leading to inefficiency and failure. We can repair many issues, but if a replacement is needed, we offer energy-efficient tank models and tankless water heaters. Tankless units provide endless hot water and are a great space-saving option, especially for homes in historic downtown areas.
