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!

If you have plumbing needs, you’ve come to the right place. I had a drain valve in my hot water snap while I was trying to replace it and 80 gallons of water started to rush into my garage. I had to press a hose against it to drain most of it into the yard but was left with a flooded spot and water leaking from the cold water shutoff valve. I called Saturday night at 11:00 PM and Glen answered within 2 rings. He said he’d get me squared away. Since most of the damage had been done and my tank was just slightly leaking, he advised me to wait until Monday to avoid an after hours fee. Monday morning Glen came personally to check out my situation and acted fast recommending a whole new unit since mine was aging and rusted from years of leaky valves. By noon Glen must’ve sent his best two guys because Kyle and Jake were in my driveway ready to demo and install. After 6 hours of hard work they pulled out of my driveway leaving me with a spotless worksite and a brand new tankless water heater. I can’t say enough about Westover plumbing. If I ever have any plumbing needs again they’ll be the first people I call.

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.

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!

Called at 4:30pm on a Thursday to schedule someone to help investigate why my kitchen sink, shower & washing machine couldn’t drain properly. 2 guys showed up the next morning at 8am (they were scheduled between 8am-9am) and promptly identified the issue. Had the issues repaired and working within 3 hours. Very happy with the service provided, but the price was a little higher than I expected.

John G. and the gentleman who was with him were ABSOLUTELY wonderful! From the beginning (calling their office) to the end, we had a fantastic experience with this company. Pricing was very far too compared to other quotes. I was happy to pick a family owned company, and they were so kind & professional. No high pressure sales like most companies. We will definitely continue to use them for years to come.

Great communication and kind service. Fabian helped me with my shower drain — very professional and taught me how to upkeep it in the future. Only reason for 4 stars is I was told a lower price for a water heater flush add-on service, not knowing it was the price with a subscription instead of a one-service fee… felt uneasy about that

PlumbV Provided great service and got to us quickly as well. Their technician came out on time to diagnose the problem, and they were able to install a new water heater within 24 hours. They offered great communication throughout and I will certainly use them again for any plumbing needs.

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.

Matthew and the entire CK team were great to work with. We had new water lines run to an outdoor pool and greenhouse area. They were able to get the estimator out within a few days and the work to be scheduled the same week. Everyone we met were super professional, courteous, and friendly. Matthew even helped repair our water filter that was leaking when he got into our crawl space. We would highly recommend CK’s for any plumbing job.

I had a persistent issue with a blocked toilet and decided to call JR Lane Plumbing based on recommendations. I was not disappointed. Jane promptly arranged for a plumber to come out the same day and kept me informed about their arrival. The plumbers were professional and worked diligently to clear the blockage. They ensured the toilet was functioning correctly and provided valuable tips to prevent future issues. I truly appreciated their expertise and helpful advice.

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Lane Plumbing. If you’re looking for a plumber who will give you an honest assessment and do everything they can to fix your plumbing issue in the most cost-efficient way possible—call Lane Plumbing! From the first call (on a Sunday, no less), I spoke to an actual human (Mr. Lane) and not an AI bot or answering machine. Within five minutes of talking with Mr. Lane, he identified what he believed to be the issue and walked me through a potential fix. During the service call, Daniel was extremely helpful and thorough. He answered all of my questions and gave me a clear picture of the next steps for addressing my issue. Mr. Lane and his team were exceptional from start to finish. Lane Plumbing will be my go-to plumber from now on!

My wife and I used Lane Plumbing to replace our water line after finding a leak that had cost us a ton in water bills. We were drawn to their non-invasive water line boring technology because the leak was located in the middle of our front yard. The Lane Plumbing crew, led by Robert, was great and easy to work with. They educated me on the work they were doing and went out of their way to make sure I was pleased with the service.

JB Broccard

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.

This company was a huge blessing! We had been dealing with a tankless water heater that would repeatedly error out and shutdown. We would reset it to bring it back temporarily. We dealt with this for several months along with other companies trying to fix it. Jack Vitale to the rescue! He came in and made a quick assessment and had my problem fixed in less than an hour! This is not hyperbole. Almost a year long issue fixed in no time! A quick turnaround too! I literally called at 10 and it was fixed at 1115. We are highly impressed! We definitely will be using them for all our plumbing needs going forward.

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!

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 Cary

Living in the Research Triangle means you expect efficiency and reliability, especially when it comes to home maintenance. In Cary, North Carolina, a clogged drain isn't just an inconvenience; it can disrupt your entire household schedule. Whether you are located near the bustling Fenton development or in a quiet neighborhood near Bond Park, finding a plumber who can actually show up today is often a challenge. Our service takes the guesswork out of the process. We don't just provide a list of names; we actively scan our network of certified Cary plumbers, filter them by your specific zip code, and physically call them to verify they have the equipment and the time to help you immediately. From the older, established homes near downtown Cary to the newest construction in West Cary, we ensure you're connected with a local expert who is ready to work right now.

Common Drain Issues in Cary

Tree Root Intrusion: Cary is known for its beautiful, lush canopy. However, the roots of those majestic oaks often seek out moisture in underground sewer lines, leading to stubborn blockages and pipe damage that require professional clearing.

Hard Water Scale: While North Carolina water is generally manageable, many Cary residents experience mineral buildup over time. This scale can narrow the diameter of your pipes, causing slow drains and making it easier for debris to cause a total backup.

Kitchen Grease and Disposal Issues: With the high volume of family-centric households in Cary, kitchen drains frequently fall victim to grease and food waste. Even with a garbage disposal, the piping in many Cary homes can accumulate 'sludge' that only professional cleaning can remove.

Heavy Rain Backflow: The intense summer thunderstorms common in the Triangle can overwhelm outdoor drainage systems and crawl space drains. If your Cary home's perimeter drains aren't clear, you risk water backing up into your living space during a heavy NC downpour.

Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Cary

Before the North Carolina autumn leaves begin to fall, ensure your outdoor area drains are clear to prevent heavy rains from backing up toward your foundation.

In early winter, as temperatures in Cary occasionally dip below freezing, have your main lines inspected for small clogs that can freeze and cause pipe expansion or bursts.

During the spring, avoid putting fibrous garden waste or holiday meal scraps down your Cary home's disposal to prevent seasonal backups during high-use periods.

Heading into the humid Cary summer, check your HVAC condensate drains and basement floor drains to ensure they are clear of the algae and mold growth common in the NC climate.

Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Cary

$175-$525

Costs in Cary generally range based on the severity of the clog. A standard sink snaking is on the lower end, while main line clearing or hydro-jetting to remove tree roots represents the higher end of the spectrum.

Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning in Cary

How quickly can a plumber reach my home in Cary?

Because we filter our network by your specific Cary zip code and call to verify immediate availability, we can often find a certified plumber who can arrive at your door for same-day service.

Do you cover all of Cary, including the West Cary and Amberly areas?

Yes. Our zip code filtering covers the entire Cary area, from the Kildaire Farms region to the high-growth developments in West Cary and near the Chatham County line.

Are the plumbers in your network familiar with Cary's plumbing codes?

Absolutely. We only work with certified North Carolina plumbers who are fully licensed and deeply familiar with the specific building codes and common pipe types found in Cary and the surrounding Triangle.

What if my drain clog is an emergency after hours?

Our verification service specifically looks for 24-hour availability. We call the plumbers to confirm they are actually on-call and ready to head to your Cary location before we pass the information to you.

Does hydro-jetting work for the tree root issues common in Cary?

Yes, many of the professionals in our Cary network offer hydro-jetting, which is the most effective way to clear the thick tree roots that often infiltrate sewer lines in our wooded North Carolina neighborhoods.
