Where We Work
We’ve been plumbing the Charleston area since 1971 — from historic homes on the peninsula to new construction across the bridges.
Charleston-area plumbing is not one job. A 1950s ranch in West Ashley, a slab-built house off Highway 17, and a downtown home with original cast iron drains each fail in their own way. Pick your area below for what we see most there, or get in touch if you’d rather just describe the problem.
East of the Cooper
Plumber in Mount Pleasant, SC
Mount Pleasant has grown faster than almost anywhere else in the Lowcountry, and its plumbing reflects that. Most of the homes north of Highway 17 went up between the 1990s and today on slab foundations, which changes how a leak has to be found and fixed — there is no crawlspace to work from, so the pipe has to be located precisely before anyone opens a floor.

Plumber in West Ashley, SC
A large share of West Ashley was built out between the 1950s and the 1970s, which puts much of the neighborhood right at the point where original plumbing gives up. Galvanized steel supply lines corrode from the inside and slowly choke off water pressure. Cast iron drain lines from the same era crack and scale.

Plumber in James Island, SC
James Island mixes older cottages with newer infill construction, sometimes on the same street. What the whole island shares is proximity to salt water and marsh. Salt air is hard on anything metal and exposed — hose bibs, outdoor shower valves, and exterior fixtures corrode faster here than they do inland.

Plumber in North Charleston, SC
North Charleston covers more ground and more variety than any other part of the county. Park Circle bungalows from the 1940s and 50s sit a few miles from brand-new construction, and between them is a large amount of rental housing and commercial property.

Plumber in Daniel Island, SC
Almost everything on Daniel Island has been built since the late 1990s, so the plumbing is comparatively young. That shifts the work away from failing pipes and toward everything else: fixture upgrades during renovations, tankless conversions, pressure regulation, and water quality.

Plumber in Summerville, SC
Summerville pairs an old downtown with some of the largest new subdivisions in the region, and the plumbing needs at each end are almost opposite. Historic homes near the town center often still have original drain and supply lines. The newer developments have modern plumbing but heavy demand on it.

Plumber in Goose Creek, SC
Most of Goose Creek was built between the 1970s and the early 2000s. A lot of that housing stock has now passed through one round of water heater replacement and is heading into the second, and the original supply and drain lines are old enough to start showing their age.
