Xpress Drain and Plumbing has been the go-to plumbing company for Simpsonville homeowners and businesses since 1993. Thirty-three years of showing up, solving problems, and leaving properties in better shape than we found them. We pick up the phone and get it handled. Whether you own a single-family home, manage a rental portfolio, or run a commercial facility in Greenville County, you reach a real local person who knows this area and gets the work scheduled fast. Trusted by local homeowners and property managers for their plumbing, we handle everything from a stubborn clogged drain to a full sewer line replacement. Call this morning. Flowing this afternoon. That's how we work.
Keeping a home dry starts with the pipes behind the walls, and that is exactly where we focus. We work with homeowners, renters, and landlords throughout Simpsonville and the surrounding county. Whether it is a dripping faucet that has been bothering you for weeks or a burst pipe that needs attention right now, we handle both the everyday repairs and the urgent calls that cannot wait.
On the commercial side, we partner with property managers, small business owners, and facility operators who need a plumber they can count on to show up and finish the job right. A slow drain in a rental unit or a water heater failure at a commercial property does not have to mean a full day of waiting. Work performed by licensed plumbers covers both residential and commercial jobs, so every repair meets the same standard regardless of the property type.
Hearing a running toilet or a drip behind the wall? A slow drain is often the first sign of a bigger problem building up in your pipes. We clear bathroom drains, kitchen drains, shower drains, and floor drains using the right tool for the job. For stubborn or recurring clogs, we bring in hydro jetting equipment that blasts buildup out of the line rather than just pushing it further down. We also handle main drain cleaning and sewer line cleaning as part of the same service scope, so if the problem runs deeper than the fixture, we follow it all the way to the source. We'll have your drains running again in no time.
Finding a leak is half the battle. We locate pipe leaks, water line leaks, and hidden leaks behind walls before they turn into water damage. In South Carolina, slab construction is common, and slab leak detection is a regular part of what we do. Underground leak detection for supply lines is also in our toolkit. When we arrive, the visit starts with a clear diagnosis. Once we know what we are dealing with, we walk you through the repair options before any work begins. No pressure and no gimmicks, just sound, lasting plumbing. Call us and we'll walk you through the repair.
A running toilet, a leaking toilet, or a toilet that simply will not flush right is more than an annoyance. We handle toilet repair, toilet replacement, and new toilet installation for both homes and commercial properties. On the fixture side, we repair and install kitchen and bathroom faucets, replace sinks, and handle fixture upgrades when a homeowner is ready to update a bathroom or kitchen. Garbage disposal installation and repair fits naturally into this category as well. Whether the disposal is jammed, leaking, or has simply reached the end of its life, we get it sorted and back in service.
South Carolina's mild climate does not let water heaters off the hook. They run year-round, and when one fails, the impact is immediate. We repair and replace tank water heaters and handle tankless water heater installation and repair for homeowners who want a more efficient setup. No-hot-water calls get treated as the urgency they are. We'll get the job plumbed and finished. Before any work begins, you get no-pressure estimates, priced up front, so there are no surprises when the job is done.
What sets our plumbers apart is straightforward: we do not stop at the symptom. A sewer backup or a main line clog is a sign that something deeper needs attention, and we trace it to the source. We clear main sewer line clogs, repair sewer backups, and handle sewer line repair and replacement for lines that have deteriorated or been damaged by tree roots. A sewer line inspection is typically the first step before any major repair decision, so you know exactly what you are dealing with before committing to a scope of work. Where the job allows, trenchless sewer repair keeps disruption to the yard and landscaping to a minimum. All sewer work follows code-compliant practices from start to finish.
Here's what most people get wrong about their plumbing: low water pressure and frequent leaks are not random bad luck. They are usually symptoms of an aging pipe system that is starting to fail. We diagnose water pressure problems, replace shutoff valves that have corroded or stopped working, and handle water line replacement for supply lines that are past their useful life. When a pipe bursts, we treat it as the emergency it is. Burst pipe repair, broken pipe repair, and emergency pipe repair are all part of what we handle on short notice. For homes with widespread pipe deterioration, whole-house repiping replaces the failing system entirely and gives the property a clean, reliable foundation going forward.
Plumbing emergencies do not follow a schedule. A burst pipe at midnight, a water heater that quits on a Sunday, a sewer backup that backs up into a commercial kitchen on a Friday afternoon. We offer same-day service, after-hours availability, and weekend coverage because those situations cannot wait until Monday morning. When you call, you reach a local person who knows the area and can get licensed plumbers on the job fast. Leak found. Leak fixed. Water back on. That is the standard we hold ourselves to on every emergency call, and it is the same standard we have kept since we opened our doors in Simpsonville more than three decades ago.
Keeping a home dry starts with knowing what the repair is going to cost, and we take that seriously. One of the most common concerns we hear is that a plumber will show up, start the work, and hand over a bill that looks nothing like the number discussed on the phone. That is not how we operate. Before any work begins, we give you a clear quote so you know exactly what you are agreeing to.
Plumbing repair costs vary depending on the scope of the job, the parts required, and how accessible the problem is. A simple faucet repair is a different conversation than a sewer line replacement or a whole-house repipe. We explain those factors plainly, answer your questions, and let you make an informed decision. Call for a quote and we will give you a straight number before we pick up a wrench.
Simpsonville is our home base, and Greenville County is our backyard. We serve the full county, including the communities of Mauldin, Fountain Inn, Greer, Greenville, Taylors, and Woodruff. If you are in the area and need a plumber, there is a good chance we have already worked on a home or property near yours. Our service area is built around being close enough to respond quickly, not just close enough to show up eventually.

We take scheduled arrival times seriously. If something changes on our end, we contact you ahead of time. Our goal is to show up when we say we will and to have the right tools and parts to complete the job in that visit.

We stand for honest pricing, reliable work, and showing up when we say we will. We operate on upfront estimates and no-pressure communication because that is how we would want to be treated as customers ourselves.
Yes. We use professional-grade equipment for diagnosis and repair, including camera inspection tools, hydro jetting equipment, and leak detection technology. Having the right tool for the job means fewer return visits and more accurate repairs the first time.

How do I know if my water heater needs to be repaired or fully replaced?
Age, symptom type, and repair cost relative to replacement cost are the three factors we look at together. A water heater that rumbles, produces discolored water, or runs out faster than it used to is often repairable. One that is leaking from the tank itself, is more than 12 to 15 years old, or has a failing heat exchanger on a tankless unit is usually a better candidate for replacement. We give you an honest assessment and a price for both options before any work starts.
What is the difference between a tank and a tankless water heater?
A tank water heater stores a set volume of hot water and keeps it heated continuously. A tankless unit heats water on demand as it flows through the unit, which eliminates standby heat loss and can supply hot water indefinitely as long as demand does not exceed the unit's flow rate. Tankless units cost more upfront and require a larger gas line or electrical circuit in most cases. We install, repair, and replace both types and can walk you through which fits your household's usage pattern.
What are the signs that my sewer or main line has a problem?
Multiple drains backing up at the same time, gurgling sounds from fixtures after another one is used, sewage odor near a floor drain, and slow drains throughout the house rather than at a single fixture all point to a main line issue rather than a localized clog. A camera inspection is the most reliable way to confirm what is happening inside the line before deciding on a repair approach.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We keep same-day appointments available for most calls and offer after-hours response for emergencies across Simpsonville and Greenville County. If something goes wrong at an inconvenient hour, call us and we will get someone out.
How do you find a leak that is hidden inside a wall or under a slab?
We use a combination of pressure testing, acoustic listening equipment, and in some cases thermal or camera inspection to narrow down where the leak is before opening anything up. For slab leaks specifically, pinpointing the location first keeps the repair focused and minimizes the amount of concrete that needs to be disturbed. We explain what we found and what the repair involves before any work begins.
How do tree roots damage a sewer line, and what can be done about it?
Roots follow moisture and will work their way into any small crack or joint gap in an older sewer pipe. Once inside, they grow and eventually cause partial or full blockages, and in some cases structural collapse of the pipe. We clear root intrusion mechanically, run a camera to see how far the damage extends, and repair or replace the affected section of line. Catching root intrusion before it causes a collapse keeps the repair significantly more manageable.
What causes low water pressure throughout the house?
A partially closed main shutoff valve, a failing pressure regulator, mineral buildup inside older pipes, or a leak somewhere in the supply system are the most common causes. If low pressure is isolated to one fixture, the aerator or valve at that fixture is usually the starting point. If it is whole-home, we diagnose from the meter and main line inward to find where the pressure is being lost.
Upfront Quotes With No Surprise Fees
Every estimate is priced up front before any work begins. You know exactly what the job costs before we start, and that number does not change without your approval.
When does a home actually need to be repiped rather than repaired?
Repeated leaks in different locations, pipe material that is known to fail such as polybutylene or heavily corroded galvanized steel, persistent pressure problems, or discolored water from the supply side are all signs that patching individual spots is no longer the right answer. A full repipe with copper or PEX resolves the underlying problem rather than extending the cycle of repairs. We assess the pipe condition and give you a clear picture of what makes sense for your home.
Do I need to be home when the plumber arrives?
Someone should be present to provide access to the affected area and to approve the work before it starts. If your schedule is tight, let us know when you call and we will do our best to find a window that works. For rental properties, a property manager or authorized contact can fill that role.
Work Performed by Licensed Plumbers
Every job, from a faucet swap to a whole-home repipe, is completed by licensed plumbers who are accountable for the result. No pressure, no gimmicks, just sound, lasting plumbing.
How does your pricing work, and will I know the cost before work starts?
We provide no-pressure estimates priced up front before any work begins. You know what the job costs before we pick up a wrench. If the scope changes once we are into the work, we tell you before proceeding. There are no surprise charges when the job is done.
Can a sump pump failure cause serious damage, and what should I do if mine stops working?
Yes. A sump pump that fails during heavy rainfall can allow water to enter a basement or crawl space quickly, causing structural damage and mold. If your pump is not running, making unusual noises, or cycling constantly without moving water, call us. We diagnose whether the pump itself has failed, whether the float switch is the issue, or whether the discharge line is blocked. In areas prone to power outages during storms, a battery backup system is worth adding at installation.
What can hydro jetting clear that a standard drain snake cannot?
A drain snake punches through a clog but leaves residue, grease buildup, and scale on the pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the interior of the pipe, removing grease, mineral scale, and smaller debris that a snake leaves behind. It is the better option for recurring clogs, grease-heavy kitchen drain lines, and any situation where a snake has already been tried without lasting results.
