What you actually get when you call us.
This started as two people and a truck in 1998 and grew on water, sewer and drain work. Nearly three decades in one trade, not a franchise name bought off a shelf last year.
Burst pipes and sewage backups do not wait for business hours. The phone is answered at night and on weekends, and the first thing you get is help finding your shutoff.
You hear the number before a wrench moves. No hourly meter running while you stand there, and no discovering the real cost after the wall is open.
Every job goes to a licensed, insured plumbing contractor who pulls the permits your town requires. Licence numbers are on the invoice, not buried on a webpage.
Told you need a full repipe or a new sewer line? Get it looked at again. Sometimes it is a smaller fix, and sometimes we confirm the first plumber was right so you can spend with confidence.
Straight answers to the things people call and ask first.
Yes, and it starts with an actual water test rather than a guess. Hardness, iron and sulfur all need different equipment, so the Carrboro system gets sized off what is really in your water.
We do. If someone has told you the house needs a full repipe or a new sewer line, a Carrboro second opinion either finds you a smaller fix or confirms the first diagnosis so you can buy with confidence.
You get a price for the repair before any work starts, not an hourly meter that runs while you watch. The diagnostic visit in Carrboro is quoted up front on the phone, and if you approve the repair that visit charge goes toward the job.
Yes — well pumps, pressure tanks and pressure switches are regular work. Short cycling, no pressure and a pump that will not shut off are the three most common calls we take from well owners near Carrboro.
That is the classic hidden leak — usually a slab leak, an underground service line, or a toilet flapper passing water quietly all night. A Carrboro leak detection visit puts a pressure gauge on the system and finds it without digging up the yard first.
Almost always. A cable machine or hydro jet goes in through an existing cleanout and clears the line from there. In Carrboro the camera goes down afterward so you can see whether it was grease, roots or a broken section.
Real feedback from real plumbing calls.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Pressure tank was short cycling every time we ran a tap. Diagnosed a waterlogged tank, replaced it, and the pump is not hammering on and off anymore."
"Kitchen drain had been slow for a year. Ran the cable, then put a camera down and showed me the grease ring on his screen. Explained what to stop pouring down it. Has not backed up since."
