If your home is your sanctuary, it should be a place where you feel relaxed and rejuvenated. That’s not always easy to do when your plumbing system isn’t working properly.
It’s important to hire a plumber when you need help with your water, sewage and gas lines. Whether it’s a simple clogged drain or a more serious problem, call a professional plumber in Raleigh NC.
Clogged Drains
Clogged drains are a common plumbing problem. They can be difficult to pinpoint and require professional help.
Plumbers Services of Raleigh NC provides a variety of services to get your pipes flowing again. We’ll identify the cause of your clogged drains and fix them promptly.
Our team of plumbing professionals can clear out clogged drains using different tools depending on the severity. Some of these include cable machines and jetting.
A cable machine is a rotating cable that is mechanically fed into your drain pipe until it cuts through the clog. The clog is then flushed away.
The water then flows out into your main sewer line or septic tank.
Another cause of clogged sewer lines is tree roots growing into the main sewer line. We can remove the roots to free up your sewer lines and prevent sewage back-up.
Leaking Pipes
Leaking pipes can cause a lot of damage to your home. Left untreated, they can lead to severe structural damage and mold growth.
Whether you have a leaky water supply pipe or a drain line, a plumber can get to work on repairing your pipes. The plumber can pinpoint the cause of your leak, talk you through the solution, and fix it in a timely manner.
A leaking pipe isn’t always easy to spot, however. Sometimes the problem is sneaky and you won’t even realize it’s there until a big puddle appears under your sink or shower.
It’s best to take preventative measures to avoid a leaking pipe, so call a plumber at the first sign of trouble. Fortunately, Plumbers Services of Raleigh NC offers leak detection services to detect these sneaky leaks so that you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs or replacements later on.

Water Heater Repair
You rely on your water heater to provide you with hot showers, clean laundry, and space heating for your home. When your water heater stops working, it can be a serious inconvenience.
The best way to prevent your water heater from failing is to maintain it on a regular basis. If you notice any issues with it, contact a plumber right away so they can fix the problem before it gets worse.
If your water heater isn’t working, first check that it hasn’t tripped the circuit breaker. Also, press the reset button on the high-temperature cutoff located just above the upper thermostat.
If that doesn’t resolve the issue, you may need to test your heating elements. You can do that with some tools, but it’s not easy and requires knowledge about electrical circuits. Alternatively, you can have them replaced by a professional. Remember to check your warranty, too! It may cover a part or the entire repair cost, depending on which parts are broken and need to be replaced.
Sewer Line Repair
If you have a slow drain or hear gurgling noises from your toilet, there may be a problem with your sewer line. In these cases, you’ll need to schedule sewer line repair services as soon as possible.
Depending on the condition of your sewer line, repairing it can be less expensive than replacing it. However, if the damage is severe, such as a collapsed pipe, then it’s likely that a replacement is necessary.
One common method for repairing a broken or cracked sewer line is cured-in-place pipe lining, also known as CIPP. This involves inserting a tube covered in epoxy into the damaged line. The epoxy cures and hardens, strengthening the lining.
Other methods for sewer line repair include pipe bursting and trenchless repairs. The cost of these methods will vary depending on the extent of the damage and how long it takes to complete the work.
