We solve many plumbing problems for Birmingham, AL homeowners. The most common we see are general household situations like: 

Slow or clogged drains
Low water pressure
Dripping faucets
Running or clogged toilets
Garbage disposal problems

When it comes to pipes and drains, we offer a variety of plumbing services, such as drain clearing and drain cleaning. Many people confuse these two plumbing services. Simply, drain clearing breaks through a clog in a main line or another plumbing line in the house. Sometimes, this is enough to solve slow drain and low water pressure issues, among other plumbing problems. 

The main line is the main plumbing line connecting the house to the municipal water system. Think of it as the main tree trunk. The limbs of the tree branch off the main line and bring water to and from each bathroom, kitchen, laundry room and so on. 

If the main line is clogged, it affects all the water sources in the home. Drain cleaning, on the other hand, is a more complex process. Our licensed Birmingham plumbers use a camera to perform inspections and determine the extent of the problem. 

This sometimes occurs prior to either a drain clearing or cleaning, to gather as much information as possible. For drain cleaning, we use hydro-jetting to flush any debris in the pipe. A camera is used again to confirm the pipe is free from material. Contact us online or give us a phone call today to schedule an appointment with our plumbing technicians. We’ll promptly arrive at the job location and ensure that the job is completed in a timely and effective manner.

There are also plumbing services involving piping and repiping. What’s the difference? It’s like it sounds. Piping is the installation of pipes where there were none before, such as a basement or attic bedroom.

Repiping replaces supply pipes in a house. It’s not a short-term repair or pipe segment replacement. Repiping is a complete replacement of the pipes in your entire supply system. We often see this in older homes, built prior to 1980.

Sewer Line Services by KS Plumbers

When you need help with sewer lines, you need it fast. KS Services’ plumbers in Birmingham, AL are ready to handle whatever your sewer line problems may be. 

Common sewer problems might be: 

Tree roots. Mature or fast-spreading shallow-root trees like Redbuds or Weeping Willows routinely find their way into sewer line pipes. They seek out the moisture and organic material in the pipe and wind around themselves until the pipe is clogged or literally breaks.
Broken, cracked or misaligned pipes. This happens when soil shifts.
Crumbled or corroded pipes. Many homes have sewer pipes made of older materials which deteriorate over time and leak out into the area. 

In these cases, line replacement is your best bet to meet your plumbing needs.
