Plumbing Contractor Mount Pleasant SC | Call Westoration

Our specialized plumbing inspections use camera technology to visually assess the interior condition of your pipes, which is crucial in our coastal climate. We actively look for the early signs of corrosion, like pitting or mineral buildup, that are common here. Catching this early allows us to recommend targeted solutions, such as pipe lining or selective replacement, before a small leak turns into a major burst that could damage your home's foundation or interior.

During a kitchen drain inspection, we focus on the gradual buildup of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) that is common with Lowcountry cooking. Using drain cameras, we check for accumulated grease sticking to pipe walls, which narrows the passage and eventually causes complete blockages. We assess the full pipe run to locate the clog's epicenter and evaluate the pipe's condition. This allows us to determine if a high-pressure jetting service is needed to fully clear the grease or if there are deeper issues requiring attention.

Chemical cleaners offer a temporary fix and can actually worsen the problem in Mount Pleasant homes. They often don't reach the full grease clog, and their harsh acids can accelerate corrosion in older pipes. Our inspection identifies the exact nature and location of the blockage. We then use safe, mechanical methods like hydro-jetting that fully clear the pipe without damaging it, providing a longer-lasting solution and giving you a clear report on your pipe's overall health to prevent future issues.
