What Can We Help You With?

You don’t need to know the cause.
That’s what we’re here for.

When a Clogged Drain May Be More Than Just a Clog

Exposed damaged sewer pipe with root intrusion outside a home

Sometimes a clog is just a clog. But recurring clogs or several backed-up drains can point to a deeper line problem. We can inspect the line with a camera before recommending larger repairs. When the pipe and property are a good fit, trenchless sewer repair may reduce digging.

Burst pipe, active leak, overflowing toilet, or sewage backing up? Call for 24/7 emergency plumbing. If you can, turn off the water while you wait.

Real experiences from homeowners across the Central Valley.

“On Christmas Eve, Evan came to clear the drain and took a lot of roots out of it. He returned today and lowered a camera to see the condition of the drain line. He explained the issue and the approx. cost… So far very satisfied with the service and professionalism.”

Had a hose bib that was accidentally broken by my kids, it was Friday night and we couldn’t go without showers for a night. Called discount and they were able to get ahold of Carlos, he came out on a Friday night to help us get it resolved. Took him 10 minutes and we had water again! Highly recommend!

A few helpful answers

Good questions.
Clear answers.

You don’t need to diagnose the problem yourself.

Does Discount Plumbing offer 24-hour emergency plumbing service?

Yes. Discount Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout the Central Valley. If you have a burst pipe, major leak, overflowing toilet, sewer backup, or another plumbing problem causing active damage, call for help right away.

Discount Plumbing serves homeowners throughout San Joaquin and Stanislaus Counties and nearby Central Valley communities, including Stockton, Manteca, Modesto, Tracy, Lodi, Turlock, and many of the smaller cities and communities throughout the region.

If you do not see your city in our service-area list, call or text us to find out if we can come to you.

What plumbing problems can Discount Plumbing help with?

Discount Plumbing handles everyday plumbing repairs as well as larger drain and sewer problems. That includes leaking pipes, toilets, faucets, garbage disposals, clogged drains, sewer backups, water heaters, sewer line repairs, trenchless sewer work, and emergency plumbing.

What if I don’t know what kind of plumbing service I need?

You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself. Tell us what you are seeing, hearing, smelling, or experiencing. We can inspect the problem, find the likely cause, and explain what your options are.

When is a clogged drain a sign of a sewer problem?

One clogged sink, tub, or shower may simply have a blockage in that drain. If several drains are slow or backing up at the same time, sewage is coming up through a drain, or the same clog keeps returning, the problem may be farther down in the main sewer line.

What causes a drain to keep clogging?

Recurring clogs can be caused by grease, hair, soap buildup, food waste, roots growing into a pipe, or damage inside the drain or sewer line. If a clog keeps coming back after it has been cleared, it may be worth looking deeper to find the cause.

When might you use a camera to inspect a sewer line?

A camera inspection can help when the same drain problem keeps returning, several drains are affected, or there are signs of a problem in the main sewer line. A small camera is sent through the pipe so the technician can look for roots, buildup, cracks, damaged areas, or other problems that cannot be seen from outside.

Does a sewer problem always mean the pipe needs to be replaced?

No. Some sewer problems can be solved by clearing the line or repairing a damaged section. Replacement may make more sense when the pipe has serious or widespread damage. The right choice depends on what is actually found during the inspection.

Can a sewer line be repaired without digging up my whole yard?

In some cases, yes. Trenchless sewer methods can repair or replace damaged pipe with much less digging than traditional sewer replacement. Whether trenchless work is a good option depends on the condition and location of the existing pipe.

Do you repair and replace water heaters?

Yes. Discount Plumbing services traditional tank and tankless water heaters. If you have no hot water, not enough hot water, strange noises, rusty-looking water, or a leaking water heater, we can inspect the system and explain whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

How do I know if my water heater should be repaired or replaced?

That depends on what is wrong with it, its condition, and whether the problem can be repaired safely and reasonably. A smaller part failure may only need a repair. A badly leaking or failing unit may make replacement the better choice. We can inspect it and explain both options when they are available.

Does Discount Plumbing also provide heating and air conditioning service?

Yes. In addition to plumbing, drain, sewer, and water heater service, Discount Plumbing provides heating and air conditioning service. We can help when a heater or AC system will not turn on, is not keeping the home comfortable, keeps starting and stopping, or is making unusual noises.

How long has Discount Plumbing served the Central Valley?

Discount Plumbing has served Central Valley homeowners since 1996. Over the years, the company has grown from handling everyday plumbing repairs to providing drain, sewer, trenchless, water heater, emergency plumbing, heating, and air conditioning service.
