Whales Plumbing & Excavation: Top-Rated Plumber Serving Canastota, NY 13032

Freezing pipes are a common issue in our Canastota winters. First, shut off the water supply to the affected area if possible to minimize potential flooding when it thaws. Gently apply heat with a hairdryer or heat tape, starting near the faucet. Never use an open flame. For pipes inside walls or for persistent problems, it's best to call a professional. We can safely thaw the pipes, assess for damage, and make repairs. We also offer advice and services for preventative measures like pipe insulation to help avoid the issue next season.

Absolutely. While simple sink clogs are common, deeper blockages in main drain lines or sewers often require more than a plunger. We use professional-grade drain snakes and high-pressure water jetting equipment to clear obstructions deep within your plumbing system. For severe cases, our excavation capabilities allow us to locate and repair or replace damaged sewer lines underground. We'll diagnose the issue, explain your options, and provide a solution that gets your drains flowing properly again.
