The team with ARC Plumbing were easy to work with and did a good job at a reasonable price. I was able to establish contact very easily through Yelp's "Project Quote" system, without having to get on a phone call. They gave me a reasonable ballpark estimate on a kitchen sink drain rebuild and garbage disposal install. Then they sent out some guys to inspect and finalize the quote. Even got them to fit in additional plumbing tasks to the work quote, and it was still reasonably priced! We were able to schedule the work within 2 days of the quote being finalized, and the plumber they sent knocked it out in a couple of hours. And the plumbing work looks great! No leaks after a over week! I will gladly reach out to ARC Plumbing again in the future for any plumbing needs that I cannot handle myself.

I hired ARC Plumbing for a full sewer line replacement (cleanout to city tap), and overall the experience was very positive and professional. The total cost was about $6,000, which was very fair and significantly lower than quotes from large national chains for comparable or better scope. From a technical standpoint, the team did an excellent job. They confirmed the diagnosis with a camera inspection, explained the issue clearly, and replaced the entire sewer lateral (about 50 ft) to establish proper slope. They even lowered the city connection to ensure a clean, continuous fall. The crew was large, efficient, and clearly experienced — at times there were 8+ people on site, and they worked a very long day to get everything done right. They handled unexpected issues well (sprinkler line and gas line in the trench), took care to test systems before closing things up, and explained what they were doing throughout the process. Even though landscaping was excluded from the contract, they went the extra mile and came back to rake, clean, and seed, which I really appreciated. One area for improvement: after the replacement, I expected a final camera inspection to verify the result. The on-site team initially told me this would be done, but later I had to debate this with someone else who was not initially involved. That discussion was uncomfortable, and in my view a post-repair camera check should be non-negotiable for a sewer replacement of this scale — it’s something the contractor should want to verify anyway. To ARC’s credit, they did perform the camera inspection and water tests in the end, and everything checked out. I ultimately gave 5 stars because of the overall quality of the work, value, and professionalism, but the camera debate nearly made this a 4-star review. With clearer internal alignment on post-installation verification, ARC would be outstanding across the board.

We've had ARC out to our house for several issues and they are always quick, professional, and informative! Today we had Clay, Chris, Noah, and Cam all working on our sewer line, and they did an amazing job! ARC will always be the first people we call with plumbing issues!

I almost never write reviews for companies but as a former contractor, I feel the need to comment on the unprofessional manner in which my service was handled. Not only was the plumber unable to repair my clog he left my tub in a worse state than when he arrived, he disassembled my overflow assembly to work on the drain which he left completely disassembled. Not only did he not reassemble my tub when I went to check on the work after they left I found that they had scuffed my wall up and did not mention that to me. Overall the experience was horrible, one I would never wish upon any homeowner or renter please avoid this unprofessional establishment!

Outstanding service from start to finish!! My techs Caleb & Chandler went above and beyond to make sure my water heater was covered by Duke Energy. We have the protection plan through them. Caleb was extremely through and explained everything to us. It is rare to find someone that will go the extra mile. Lets not forget the incredible office staff. Every time I have needed to call they are the sweetest ladies!! We are grateful! We will be customers for life!! UPDATE!!! Nate & Riko installed our beautiful new water heater today, 2/4. They called on the way installed and cleaned everything up like they were never there. Very nice and respectful young men!! Trust me when I say if you have a plumbing need call them!! See our before and after pictures :)

What I liked about the service, the techs Nate and Chandler, did an assessment on December 26, on December 28, Modern Plumbing dispatcher called me to setup a time for December 29th to replace my water heater. The turn around was great. Due to the holidays I felt like the company had our best interest at heart. The tech walked me through how to use the shut off valves etc if need arise. They were professional also they cleaned up after the job was completed. That is why I gave them a five star rating. Modern Plumbing please Keep up the great customer service Sincerely one happy customer!

We had an emergency sewer backup at our rental home and Westover Plumbing responded quickly after being contacted by our property management company. Glen was very sympathetic and made sure someone came out the same day. Chris arrived promptly, was friendly and professional and cleared the blockage efficiently. Really appreciate their fast and caring service!

When my old 50-gallon gas water heater finally needed replacement (evidenced by the water I discovered all over my garage one morning), the company that had been servicing me (not Westover) sent over the smarmiest sales guy you can imagine (we shall refer to him as Mr. Smarmy going forward). Mr. Smarmy decided I was an easy target for a chunky commission, but he couldn't break down his company's fixed price for the replacement or tell me whether the suggested new unit's BTU rating was equal to or better than my older unit (it wasn't) because the picture he'd quickly taken of my old unit was blurry and he couldn't be bothered to get up and verify. Naturally I sent him on his way and called around looking for competitive quotes. I got three other quotes. Of those, Westover won my business by skipping the sales nonsense. Glen from Westover asked the right questions and worked with me on the quote details. We landed on an after-tax quote that beat Mr. Smarmy's original pre-tax quote by $600 with a more efficient water heater than Mr. Smarmy was trying to sell me. It was equal to or better than my old water heater in every way. Glen's people came to install it the next day. They arrived a bit early to scout the installation site and take measurements before heading out to buy the new unit. When the new unit's exhaust pipe was just a bit longer than the old, they worked with me on its placement to minimize the area taken up in my garage, which I really appreciated. They had the whole project done about 3 hours after they began and the new water heater has been working wonderfully since then! Thanks to Glen and his team for a great experience.

Highly recommend...we've used CK's Plumbing for 5 years on many jobs: a basement bathroom renovation, backflow valve issue, toilet install & repair, moved the old house shutoff valve from a coat closet to a new 1/0 lever at first point of entry. This week Sean and Ernesto fixed a kitchen sink blockage that needed a 25' pipe snake to clear out the buildup. Their work is excellent and always fair priced so I'll keep coming back. Thanks CK's!!

These guys and gals are awesome! Call them first for all your plumbing needs. They are honest and quick! You get an actual, friendly human when you call. I had my main waterline replaced by them from the meter to my house for less than 1/2 what other companies quoted. That included calling 811 and puling the necessary permits. Joe and Steve did a great job and did it quick and were happy to explain exactly what they were doing and why. It took them less than a day. Bob was also very helpful and knowledgeable! Minimal mess was made and they cleaned things up as perfectly as possible. Their business card is waterproof too which a nice touch.

Called CK plumbing when we realized we had no hot water at our home. They were able to come the next day and quickly diagnosed the issue. They recommended replacement of our water heater due to the age (12+ years old) as it was nearing the end of its life cycle. Tommy and his assistant we're friendly & professional. We are happy with the new water heater they installed.

Michael and Tyler replaced a 30+ year old water softener with a bigger and better system. They tested my well water and recommended a UV light system. While they were doing the replacement, they noticed a small water leak on my main line coming in. A very helpful find and repair. They were very professional and pleasant to have do the work. I recommend them.

I was really impressed with the service and care I received from Unlimited Plumbing! They came out on a Saturday for a main line backup- no extra cost for a weekend!!, walked me through the entire process and helped me w a plan to fix it. Work is all done and I couldn’t be happier. Price was great too considering it was a main line fix. Andrew was spectacular to work with and the crew including Yede was amazing, friendly and helpful.

Michael was absolutely amazing! He came out next day to fix our frozen pipes that busted in a few places. He was very knowledgeable and so so nice. Michael was very efficient and fixed our pipes no problem. This was a difficult job as the way our pipes and house is set up is very different than most homes. However he had no problem getting it done. For what we had fixed he was very reasonable priced and even gave us a military discount. I highly recommend Michael with Big Dawgs plumbing services!

We had an emergency situation at our office. We called Mike and he came out immediately. He addressed the situation and resolved it quickly which was important since it was a business and we couldn’t have our plumbing out of service. Excellent service, fair prices and great work. Would definitely recommend him for any of your plumbing needs!

Hoped to fix rather than replace my water heater to save money. Michael said he thought the problem should be covered by the warranty. After he made several phone calls, he ended up getting approval for warranty replacement from the company which initially denied that it met their eligibility criteria. I am so surprised and grateful!!! I had not even thought about checking the warranty myself. I will definitely call again for any plumbing needs and I highly recommend Big Dawgs if you’re looking for a company that really cares to provide the best service to their customers with professionalism, knowledge, efficiency and skill. Outstanding! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️+

Professional Drain Cleaning in Apex, North Carolina

Finding a reliable plumber in the "Peak of Good Living" shouldn't be a mountain to climb. Whether you’re near Salem Street or out toward the Beaver Creek Commons, a clogged drain can disrupt your day. That’s where we come in. We don't just give you a list of local plumbers; we actively filter our network of 15 local pros based on your specific Apex zip code and current availability.

Our service takes the guesswork out of emergency repairs. We verify that a certified technician is ready to head to your North Carolina home before you ever pick up the phone. By cross-referencing real-time availability with your location, we ensure you get the fastest response time possible for your kitchen, bathroom, or sewer line issues.

Common Drain Issues in Apex, North Carolina

Apex is known for its beautiful canopy, but those established oaks and pines have thirsty roots. They often find their way into older sewer lines in the downtown area, causing slow drains and messy backups that require professional snaking.

With Apex's rapid growth, even newer homes in developing subdivisions can face drain issues caused by construction debris or the accumulation of "flushable" wipes that the local sewer systems struggle to process.

While Apex water is high quality, many residents experience mineral buildup over time. This scale narrows the diameter of your pipes, leading to frequent clogs in showerheads and faucets that a standard plunger can't fix.

As a community of foodies, Apex's vibrant home-cooking scene means lots of fats and oils enter the drainage system. Pouring grease down the sink is a common culprit for homeowners near the Holly Springs border, leading to solidified blockages deep in the plumbing line.

Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Apex, North Carolina

Spring: After heavy North Carolina spring rains, check your crawlspace for slow-draining floor drains to ensure your home's foundation isn't at risk from backflow.

Summer: With high humidity and frequent use of garbage disposals for summer produce like corn husks or rinds, run plenty of cold water to keep Apex kitchen drains clear and odor-free.

Fall: Ensure your outdoor gutters and downspouts are clear of falling leaves. Blocked external drainage can sometimes cause pressure issues or backflow in lower-level drains during autumn storms.

Winter: While NC winters are usually mild, occasional freezes can occur in the Triangle. Insulate exposed pipes in your garage or attic to prevent cracks that lead to debris buildup and future clogs.

Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Apex, North Carolina

$145-$495

Pricing in Apex typically varies based on the severity of the clog, the equipment needed (such as a basic snake vs. high-pressure hydro-jetting), and whether the issue is located in a single fixture or the main sewer line.

Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning in Apex, North Carolina

How quickly can I get a drain cleaned in Apex?

Yes, we filter through our local network to find plumbers currently servicing the Kelly Road, Beaver Creek, and Downtown Apex areas to ensure the fastest response.

What is the most common cause of clogs in Apex homes?

In the Peak City, we see a mix of tree root intrusions in older homes near the historic district and grease or wipe blockages in newer suburban developments.

Yes. Our unique service specifically checks for 24-hour availability to ensure you aren't left waiting during a midnight plumbing emergency or weekend backup.
