Common Plumbing Issues in Melbourne Homes
Melbourne's mix of older and newer housing means we see a wide range of plumbing problems across the city. Many homes built before the 1980s — especially in the older sections of Melbourne and Eau Gallie — still rely on aging cast iron drain lines that are now corroding, cracking, and backing up. We regularly help these homeowners with cast iron pipe replacement and trenchless pipe repair that restores their plumbing without tearing up the yard.
Closer to the coast, salt air and humidity accelerate corrosion on fixtures and supply lines, while Melbourne's naturally hard, mineral-heavy water takes a toll on water heaters and faucets citywide. And because Brevard County sits squarely in hurricane country, storm season brings its own risks — saturated ground, sewer backups, and sudden leaks. Whatever your Melbourne home is dealing with, our team has almost certainly seen it just down the road.

Job Locations and Reviews
Dispatched to a home in Melbourne after a customer woke up to an overflowing washing machine drain standpipe soaking their utility room floor. We ran a compact drain snake through the 2-inch drain pipe to punch through a compacted plug of lint, hair, and soap scum. We flushed the line with high-volume water and tested the washer discharge under a full load cycle. Water drained cleanly and quickly down the standpipe without any backup or overflow.
Serviced a residence in West Melbourne where dirty water was leaking out from underneath the garbage disposal housing during dishwashing cycles. We identified a cracked lower motor seal and a loose mounting flange on an older system. We removed the broken disposal and installed a new system, re-sealed the sink flange with fresh plumber's putty, and securely reconnected the dishwasher drain hose. The installation tested 100% leak-free with smooth, quiet grinding operation.
Dispatched to a home in Melbourne after a customer reported raw sewage backing up into their master shower drain whenever the washing machine ran a drain cycle. We ran a sewer camera inspection through the main outdoor cleanout and located a severe tree root intrusion clogging an older cast iron drain pipe 45 feet down line. Using our high-pressure hydro-jetting rig, we scoured out the dense root mass and heavy scale build-up, fully restoring smooth, full-bore flow to the main line.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, who stated that the toilet was leaking around the base. Upon entering the bathroom, I observed that the toilet was a skirted model. After inspecting the toilet and surrounding area, I provided the homeowner with an estimate to perform a pull and reset of the toilet. The homeowner declined the estimate, stating that they had received a lower estimate from another company.
Arrived on site to complete the previously approved estimate for removal and relocation of the existing shower valve and installation of the customer-supplied diverter. Upon arrival, I reviewed the planned valve location with the homeowner and confirmed the necessary work. Removed the existing valve, rerouted the hot and cold water lines to the new location, and installed the customer-supplied shower valve and diverter. Completed the necessary connections, restored the water supply, and tested the system for proper operation and leaks. The new shower controls were functioning properly upon completion.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, who requested that a 1/2-inch water line be permanently capped. After inspecting the existing plumbing, I provided an estimate for the work, which the homeowner approved. I began by using a torch to remove the existing copper 90-degree fitting. Once the fitting was removed, I cleaned and prepared the copper pipe before installing a ProPress cap. After the cap was pressed into place, I restored the water supply at the city meter and thoroughly tested the repair for leaks. No leaks were found. Once testing was complete, I cleaned the work area and walked the homeowner through the completed repair. The homeowner was very pleased with the results. Payment was collected, and the invoice was sent.
Arrived on site and met with the customer, who reported a slow-draining kitchen sink and stated that he had attempted to snake the line himself without success. After inspecting the drain, I provided an estimate to clear the line, which the customer approved. Removed the P-trap to access the sanitary tee in the wall and ran a drain cable approximately 35–40 feet to clear the blockage. Reassembled the drain and tested the sink by running and filling it multiple times to verify proper flow and drainage. The sink was draining normally upon completion, and the customer was satisfied with the repair. Collected payment and sent the invoice.
The existing 1-1/2-inch copper waste arm was removed due to age and deterioration. A new 1-1/2-inch PVC waste arm was installed in its place, with all fittings properly solvent-welded and connected using an approved transition coupling between the existing copper and new PVC piping where required. The new piping was installed with the proper slope to ensure adequate drainage, securely supported, and tested to verify there were no leaks. The completed installation provides a durable, code-compliant drainage system with improved long-term reliability.
Arrived on site and met with the tenant and homeowner, who reported the kitchen sink was backing up and not draining. After inspection, I provided an estimate to access the roof and clear the blockage through the vent stack, which was approved. Accessed the roof and ran the drain machine through the vent stack, feeding the cable the full length of the reel; however, the blockage could not be cleared from that access point. I then accessed the drain beneath the kitchen sink and snaked the line for approximately 15 minutes, successfully restoring proper drainage. Reassembled the drain piping and tested the sink multiple times to verify consistent flow. Due to the plumbing being original to the 1954 construction, I also inspected the exterior and observed standing water, indicating a potential issue with the drain line. The homeowner was informed of the findings and advised that further evaluation may be necessary.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, who reported that the P-trap beneath the kitchen sink was becoming loose whenever the garbage disposal was operated due to the vibration. After inspecting the drain assembly, I found that the waste arm inside the wall is installed too high, preventing the tubular drain piping beneath the sink from aligning and fitting properly. I explained my findings to the homeowner. I was able to make adjustments to stop the leak temporarily; however, this is only a temporary solution. The proper repair is to lower the waste arm inside the wall so the drain assembly can be installed correctly and function as intended. An estimate will be provided to the homeowner for the recommended repair.
We have used Burton Plumbing 🪠 serval times. And Anthony the Tech/ plumber that came out today was very helpful and informative.
Arrived on site and met with the office manager regarding a clogged restroom toilet. Upon inspection, found the toilet bowl filled nearly to the rim with standing water. Provided an estimate to clear the blockage, which was approved, and used a toilet auger to remove the obstruction through the trap. Flushed the line with multiple buckets of water to ensure the blockage was completely cleared and verified proper drainage. Performed several test flushes to confirm normal operation, cleaned the work area, and demonstrated the repair to the office manager before collecting payment.
Arrived on site and met with the owner, who reported that one of the kitchen sink drains was backing up. After inspecting the plumbing, it was determined that the drain line would need to be cleared using drain cables to remove the blockage and restore proper flow. An estimate was provided for the recommended drain cleaning service. The owner declined the service at this time, stating they would prefer to wait until tomorrow to see if the blockage clears on its own before proceeding.

Customer called and stated that he had a kitchen sink clogged. When I arrived on site, his daughter had showed me where the sewer line was coming up behind of the refrigerator and there was a Studer vent. Unthreaded the Studer vent and looked inside of the line and you could see that it was holding water. Grabbed my drain cables and fed them down the line until I hit the blockage. Worked the area for a couple of minutes until I watched the water in the sink drop all the way and everything was finally draining out. Ran the sink for an additional 10 minutes to make sure that I cleared the line, and everything was flowing perfectly. Cleaned up the area and job complete.
Arrived on site to a vacant unit with a lockbox for access. Per the insurance company, the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve on the water heater required replacement. The estimate had already been approved over the phone, so work began immediately upon arrival. Shut off power to the water heater and connected a garden hose to the drain valve to partially drain the tank before removing the existing T&P relief valve. Once the water level was lowered sufficiently, removed the old valve. Applied thread seal tape and pipe dope to the new T&P relief valve and installed it securely. After installation, restored the water supply to the property and opened the hot side of the bathtub faucet to purge air from the plumbing system while the water heater refilled. Inspected the new valve and surrounding connections for leaks; no leaks were found. Cleaned the work area and submitted the invoice upon completion.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding a leak beneath the kitchen sink. Inspected the plumbing while the faucet was running and found water leaking from the bottom of the garbage disposal housing, confirming an internal failure of the unit. Advised the homeowner that the disposal would need to be replaced, as the leak could not be repaired. Provided an estimate for replacement, but the homeowners declined the repair at this time, stating they planned to contact Teague or Jennifer because they felt the price was too high. No repairs were performed during today's visit.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding a guest bathroom toilet that was leaking around the base when flushed and had noticeable movement. After inspection, explained that the issue could be caused by either a failed wax seal with damaged closet bolts or a cracked toilet flange, which would require removal of the toilet to confirm. Provided estimates for both possible repairs, and the homeowner approved the work. Shut off the water supply, drained the toilet tank and bowl, and removed the toilet to inspect the flange. Found the left side of the toilet flange was damaged, preventing the toilet from sealing and sitting securely. Completed the necessary repair, installed a new seal, reset the toilet, and secured it properly. Tested the toilet for leaks and stability, verified proper operation, and cleaned the work area upon completion.
Arrived on site and met with homeowner who had stated that they had a leak underneath of their kitchen sink. I went underneath the kitchen sink while the faucet was running, and you could see a drip coming out of the bottom of the disposal eternally. Since the leak was happening eternally, the only thing we could do is replace the disposal itself. Wrote an estimate and be able to do so in which the homeowners had decline saying that they will call Teague or Jennifer because they thought that price was too high.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding multiple plumbing repairs requested for insurance purposes. The requested work included flushing the 40-gallon tank water heater, replacing two poly supply lines with braided stainless steel supply lines, and replacing the flexible kitchen sink P-trap with a properly installed PVC drain assembly. Explained that the drain repair would require removing the existing PVC cross and installing a sanitary tee. Provided an estimate, which the homeowner approved. Connected a hose to the water heater drain valve, shut off the cold-water supply, and flushed the tank. Replaced the two poly supply lines in the guest bathroom with braided stainless steel supply lines. Completed the kitchen sink drain modification by removing the flexible P-trap and installing the proper PVC drain assembly with a sanitary tee. Restored water service, checked all connections for leaks, and verified proper operation of the completed repairs.
Upon arrival, I met with the homeowner, who requested the installation of a new kitchen faucet and the drain assembly beneath the sink. After inspecting the existing setup, I provided the homeowner with an estimate for the requested work. The homeowner politely declined the estimate, stating that the quoted price exceeded his budget.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding a leaking toilet. The homeowner explained that her father had recently replaced the internal tank components, but shortly afterward the toilet began leaking and the angle stop was shut off to prevent further issues. Inspected the toilet and found the tank-to-bowl mounting nuts were not properly tightened, causing the leak. Secured the mounting hardware, restored water supply, and tested the toilet through multiple flush cycles. Verified there were no additional leaks and that the toilet was operating properly. Reviewed the repair with the homeowner and explained the cause of the issue. The homeowner was satisfied with the results. Discussed additional plumbing items she may want to address in the future, and estimates will be provided via email for those potential repairs.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, regarding a first-floor bathroom toilet that was loose and shifting during use. After inspection, explained that the issue could potentially be caused by a damaged toilet flange, but the flange condition could not be confirmed until the toilet was removed. Provided estimates for pulling and resetting the toilet, along with a potential flange repair if needed. The homeowner approved the work. Shut off the water supply, disconnected the supply line, drained the toilet, and removed the fixture for inspection. Found severely corroded closet bolts and a failed wax ring, while the toilet flange was still in serviceable condition. Removed the old wax ring and damaged hardware, installed new closet bolts and a new wax seal, and reset the toilet securely. Reconnected the water supply, tested multiple flushes, and verified the toilet is stable and operating properly with no leaks.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner who requested installation of a toilet. We previously completed a sewer line replacement at this property approximately two years ago, leaving the toilet drain stubbed up in preparation for future installation. The homeowner had recently completed tile work in the bathroom. Cut the existing toilet drain stub flush with the finished floor and installed a new glued toilet flange. Installed a new Johnny bolt set and placed a new wax ring before setting the toilet. Once the toilet was properly positioned, tightened the closet bolt nuts to secure the fixture and applied grout around the base of the toilet for a finished appearance. The home's water supply was turned off at the time of service, so I was unable to test the installation for proper operation or leaks. I reviewed the completed installation with the homeowner, who was satisfied with the work performed. Job complete.
Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, who requested that an existing CPVC water supply line be relocated approximately 9 inches. The homeowner also inquired about having a smart toilet installed, depending on the cost. After evaluating the work, I prepared and presented two separate estimates: one for relocating the CPVC water line and another for installing the smart toilet. After reviewing the estimates, the homeowner declined the smart toilet installation at this time. He requested that the estimate for relocating the water line be sent to him so he could review it with his wife before making a decision.
Upon arrival, I met with the homeowner, who stated they are remodeling their bathroom and have purchased a new shower valve and diverter that they would like installed. After inspecting the existing plumbing, the homeowner requested that the shower valve be relocated from the left side of the shower wall to the right side, which will require rerouting the existing hot and cold water lines. The proposed valve location is on an exterior wall. Before the shower valve and diverter can be installed in that location, the wall will need to be furred out to provide sufficient space for the valve body and piping. Once the wall has been properly prepared, the plumbing can be relocated and the new valve and diverter installed. An estimate will be provided for the proposed work.
Good work, Cameron
Excellent Service
