Why is my water heater not working?
Common issues include a faulty heating element, thermostat problems, or sediment buildup in the tank. Polar Plumbing offers water heater repair and replacement services to get your hot water running again fast.
How can I prevent clogged drains?
Avoid pouring grease, oil, or coffee grounds down the drain. Use a drain strainer to catch food particles and hair. For persistent clogs, schedule a professional drain cleaning service with Polar Plumbing to keep your pipes clear, no matter if you’re in Spartanburg or Clemson.
Do I really need a plumber for a leaky faucet?

How often should I schedule plumbing maintenance?
We recommend an annual inspection of your home’s plumbing system. Regular maintenance helps identify leaks, corrosion, and other problems early—before they become costly repairs. Polar Plumbing provides preventative plumbing services for folks all the way from Anderson to Lyman and beyond.
