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
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.
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. 8/17/26 Arrived on site to complete the previously approved estimate with the customer for removal and relocation of the existing shower valve and installation of a customer-supplied diverter. Upon arrival, I informed
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 customer who had stated that his kitchen sink was draining really slow, and had tried snake himself, but was unsuccessful. After taking a look over everything, I wrote him an estimate to be able to sneak the line in which he had approved so I got started right away. Remove the P-trap so I will be able to access the Santee that was in the wall. Once removed, I was able to get my cable into the line and went about 35 to 40 feet had worked the area for a couple of minutes and then I pulled my cables out and hooked the drains back up to start running water. While I was running water, the drains were taking every single bit of it, so then I proceeded to plug the sink and fill it up, so I’ll be able to drop all of the water. Once filled up, I removed the stopper and watched all the water drain out. I did this multiple times to verify proper flow. Had shown the homeowner and he was thrilled to have his sink back up and running. Collected payment and sent over invo
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 that the kitchen sink was backing up and would not drain. After evaluating the issue, I provided an estimate to access the roof and attempt to clear the blockage through the vent stack. The estimate was approved. I accessed the roof and ran my drain machine through the vent stack, feeding the cable the full length of the reel. I was initially unable to clear the blockage from that access point. I then moved inside and accessed the drain beneath the kitchen sink vanity. After approximately 15 minutes of snaking the line from that location, I removed my equipment, reassembled the drain piping, and tested the system by filling and draining the sink multiple times. The sink drained properly during each test. Because the home's plumbing is original to the 1954 construction, I performed an exterior inspection to verify there were no leaks. During the inspection, I observed standing water outside, indicating the drain line
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.
Arrived on site and met with the maintenance representative regarding two restroom drains backing up when either toilet was flushed. He also requested removal of an existing chemistry lab faucet. Upon inspection, the replacement faucet was not available, so the representative requested removal of the existing faucet only. Provided an estimate for the faucet removal, which was approved before beginning work. Removed the chemistry lab faucet by disconnecting the mounting hardware beneath the vanity and successfully extracting the old fixture. Then addressed the restroom drainage issue by setting up drain cleaning equipment and cabling the floor drain. Fed approximately 50–60 feet of cable through the line after passing the P-trap and worked through the blockage. Restored proper drainage, tested the restroom fixtures, and verified that the backups had been resolved. Cleaned the work area and reviewed the completed work with the maintenance representative.
Arrived on site and met with homeowners roommate who stated that there master bathroom shower was backing up and slowly draining. When walking inside of the master bathroom, I begin to run the shower and instantly backed up. Out of curiosity, I removed the grate for the shower drain and there was a built-in hair catcher. Removed the hair catcher, and all of the water that was sitting started to drain out. Ran the shower for another five minutes to verify proper flow and it drained out perfectly fine. Will be leaving an estimate to snake the line if this issue happens again and is past the hair catcher.
Good work, Cameron
Arrived on site and met with the cat sitter, who reported that the garbage disposal was not operating when the switch was turned on. Inspected the disposal and confirmed the reset button had not tripped. Checked the electrical panel and found the garbage disposal breaker had tripped. Reset the breaker and verified the disposal began operating normally. After cycling the disposal several times, the breaker tripped again, indicating a possible issue with the existing circuit or electrical supply. Connected the disposal to a separate electrical circuit using an extension cord and confirmed the unit operated properly without tripping the breaker. Advised that the disposal itself appears to be functioning correctly and that further electrical troubleshooting may be needed to address the circuit issue. Cleaned the work area and reviewed findings with the customer.
Excellent Service
