Who We Are

Licensed Water Heater Replacement Professionals Serving Pickens, SC

Masters Plumbing Service is a licensed, fully insured plumbing service operating across Pickens, SC. Our team consists of master plumbers and apprentices who carry active SC licenses and complete annual code-update training — because the plumbing code changes, and your contractor should know about it.

Our Pickens service hub keeps technicians staged throughout the area so we're not driving 45 minutes to your house while a burst pipe runs unchecked. Fast arrival isn't a slogan for us — it's a logistical commitment backed by how we staff and deploy our crews.

We are fully licensed in SC, carry general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage on every technician, and we permit work that requires it. That last part matters more than it sounds: an unpermitted plumbing repair can void your homeowner's insurance coverage for related water damage, and it can complicate a home sale. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and close them out correctly.

Warning Signs

Don't Ignore These — They Cost More the Longer You Wait

Your plumbing system tells you when something is wrong. The challenge is recognizing the signals before a small repair becomes a major remediation project.

01

Slow Drains Throughout the House

When two or more drains run slow simultaneously in your Pickens home, the blockage is almost always in the main line, not individual fixture traps.

02

Water Bill Spike With No Explanation

Hidden supply line leaks in Pickens homes waste thousands of gallons before they surface. A meter check with all fixtures off confirms whether water is escaping.

03

Discolored or Rusty Hot Water

Rusty hot water in Pickens, SC homes typically means the water heater is past mid-life and the tank lining has begun corroding. Anode rod replacement may buy time; tank inspection tells you how much.

04

Low Water Pressure at Multiple Fixtures

If your Pickens home's water pressure has dropped noticeably across the whole house, the issue is upstream — likely the PRV (pressure reducing valve), the main supply line, or corroded galvanized pipe narrowing the interior.

05

Running Toilet That Won't Stop

A toilet that runs constantly wastes 26–200 gallons per day depending on severity. That's $15–$100 per month per toilet — for a repair that typically costs far less than one billing cycle of waste.

06

Wet Spots or Stains on Ceilings and Walls

Active in-wall leaks in Pickens, SC homes create conditions for mold growth within 24–48 hours of sustained saturation. Locating and repairing the leak quickly limits both structural damage and remediation scope.

07

Gurgling Sounds in Drains or Toilets

Gurgling when a toilet is flushed, or when the washing machine drains, points to a venting issue or a partial main line blockage. Air displaced by water flow has nowhere to go and creates the gurgling sound.

Sewer Line Repair & Drain Service in Pickens, SC

Sewer scoping — push-rod camera, written report, footage available

Leak Detection & Pipe Repair

Find It Before Opening a Wall — Pickens, SC Leak Specialists

A water bill that jumped 30% for no visible reason. A ceiling stain that keeps reappearing after painting. A soft spot in flooring with no obvious source. These are hidden leak signatures, and every week one runs undetected is more structural damage and higher water costs. Masters Plumbing Service uses acoustic ground microphones, thermal infrared cameras, and precision pressure decay testing to pinpoint leaks in Pickens homes without speculative wall demolition.

Acoustic detection — supply line failures located to within inches under slab or behind wall
Thermal imaging — moisture zone identification before any demo begins
Pressure testing — zones isolated to identify the failing branch
Slab leak solutions — three repair approaches, you choose based on cost and disruption
Full-house repipe — PEX or copper, galvanized replacement

Pickens, SC · Emergency Plumbing

★★★★★

"Sewer backed up on a Wednesday evening. I called three companies — two said they couldn't come until Thursday morning, the third quoted me a time-and-material rate with no price cap. Masters Plumbing Service gave me a flat-rate quote over the phone, arrived in 55 minutes, cleared a root intrusion at 38 feet with a cable machine, and ran a camera to confirm the line was clear. Professional from start to finish."

— R. & C. Vásquez, Pickens

Pickens, SC · Sewer Line Service

★★★★★

"Gas water heater wasn't lighting. Masters Plumbing Service came out same day, tested the thermocouple output with a meter, confirmed it was reading 8mV when the gas valve needs at least 25mV to stay open, and replaced the thermocouple and pilot assembly. Done in under an hour, came in exactly at the quoted price. Very professional — would call again without hesitation."

— B. Harrington, Pickens

Pickens, SC · Water Heater Repair

★★★★★

"Three slow drains throughout the house, plus a gurgling toilet when the washer ran. Masters Plumbing Service's tech accessed the main cleanout, ran a camera, and found root intrusion at two clay tile joints and a partial grease plug at 28 feet. Hydro-jetted the full line, re-scoped to confirm, and the system has performed perfectly for four months. Written service report with the camera footage timestamp is a nice touch."

— F. Okonkwo, Pickens, SC

Pickens, SC · Leak Detection / Drain Service

★★★★★

"We run a restaurant in Pickens. When our grease interceptor backed up at 5 PM on a Saturday — right before the dinner rush — I needed someone fast. Masters Plumbing Service had a commercial tech on-site in under an hour, cleaned the interceptor, cleared the kitchen drain arm, and provided the health code documentation we needed. Saved us a night of revenue. Worth every dollar."

— Restaurant Owner, Pickens

Pickens, SC · Commercial Water Heater Replacement

★★★★★

"Our gas range had been installed by the previous homeowner with a flexible connector that was kinked almost 90 degrees. I smelled gas faintly near the stove and called Masters Plumbing Service. The tech arrived with a combustible gas detector, confirmed a small leak at the kinked connector, replaced the connector with a properly rated unit, ran a manometer pressure test on the kitchen gas branch, and had the documentation ready for my insurance company. All within two hours of my call."
