Drain Repair
Drain problems in West Palm Beach often go deeper than a simple clog. Many properties in the area have older drain lines, including cast-iron piping that is nearing the end of its useful life. When cast iron begins to scale, crack, corrode, or collapse, the symptoms may initially appear as recurring clogs. You may notice slow drains, backups, sewer odors, gurgling fixtures, or wet areas. At Custom Plumbing, we provide drain repair that looks at the full condition of the line, not just the immediate symptom.

Our team handles drain repair for homes, commercial buildings, restaurants, schools, offices, and construction-related plumbing systems. With more than 40 years serving the area, we understand how local plumbing systems were built and how they tend to fail over time. In many West Palm Beach properties, cast iron replacement has become a major need. The line may still be draining, but the inside can be heavily restricted or deteriorated. Waiting too long can lead to bigger backups, water damage, flooring issues, and more expensive repairs.
We start by finding the source of the problem. That may include clearing the line, checking fixture behavior, using camera inspection, or locating damaged sections beneath the slab, underground, or inside the building. Once we know what is happening, we explain the repair options clearly. Some drain issues can be corrected with a focused spot repair. Others require a larger replacement plan, especially when the pipe is brittle, broken in multiple places, or severely corroded over long stretches.
Custom Plumbing is not the cheapest plumber in town, and that is not what we are trying to be. We focus on quality work and repairs that make sense for the property. Our construction background gives us a strong advantage in complicated drain repairs because we understand how plumbing systems are installed, routed, supported, and connected.
If you are dealing with repeated drain problems, do not keep treating them like a basic clog. Call Custom Plumbing for drain repair in West Palm Beach, FL. We can inspect the system, determine whether cast iron is involved or another issue is at play, and help you plan the right repair before the problem becomes a larger plumbing emergency.
We also understand that many drain repairs affect daily routines. A backed-up kitchen, bathroom, or commercial drain can slow the whole property. That is why we focus on communication, clean work, and repairs planned around the building’s needs whenever possible.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is smoke testing for plumbing leaks?
Common signs of a failing main water line include a sudden drop in water pressure, persistent low pressure, discolored or rusty-looking water, unusually noisy pipes (hissing or bubbling sounds), persistent damp or soggy spots in your yard (especially near the street or sidewalk), and a sudden, unexplained spike in your water bill. If you notice any of these, schedule an inspection immediately.
Does replacing a main water line mean you will dig up my entire yard?
No, not necessarily. While traditional methods involve digging a trench, Custom Plumbing Inc. specializes in trenchless technology. This modern approach allows us to install or repair a large section of the main line using only two minimal access points, sparing your lawn, landscaping, driveway, and sidewalks from extensive disruption.
How long does a main water line repair or installation typically take?
A simple repair might be completed in just a few hours. A full trenchless water line replacement usually takes one full day in most standard residential settings. Traditional trench installation can take two or more days, depending on complexity. We aim to restore your water service as quickly as possible.
Will homeowner's insurance cover the cost of a main water line repair?
Coverage varies widely. Standard homeowner's policies typically do not cover water lines, as it is considered maintenance. However, many policies do cover the cost of accessing the line and repairing the ensuing water damage (like flooring replacement). Some insurers offer optional "Service Line Coverage" endorsements. It is best to check your specific policy with your agent.
