When you think about plumbing, it is easy to focus only on emergencies. But preventative maintenance is where the real savings happen. At World Class Sewer and Drain, we recommend a yearly plumbing inspection to catch small issues before they become costly repairs.
This inspection includes checking all exposed plumbing for leaks, inspecting fixtures for signs of wear, testing water pressure throughout the house, and checking the functionality of key systems like water heaters and sump pumps. We also take a close look at drains and sewer lines. A sewer camera inspection can give you a clear view of what’s happening underground without any digging.
Scheduling this type of maintenance once a year helps us catch the little things. We can replace aging washers in faucets, flush sediment from your water heater, or snake a partially clogged line before it becomes a full backup. It is always better to spend a little on prevention than a lot on cleanup.
Not every plumbing problem announces itself with a flood. Many of the early warning signs are subtle but easy to spot once you know what to look for. Sudden changes in water pressure are one of the biggest red flags. If a faucet that used to have strong flow suddenly weakens, that could mean a clog, corrosion, or pressure regulator failure.
Other signs include discolored water, slow drains, banging pipes, or odd gurgling noises when you flush or drain. Outside your home, watch for wet spots in the yard, patches of unusually green grass, or areas that smell like sewage. These can all indicate a developing issue in your water or sewer lines.
The worst thing you can do is ignore these symptoms. When you call us at the first sign of trouble, we can act fast and usually fix the problem before it turns into something more expensive.
Every major plumbing component has its own rhythm when it comes to maintenance. For water heaters, we recommend flushing the tank annually to remove sediment and checking the anode rod every two to three years. A neglected tank might still produce hot water, but over time it will lose efficiency and wear out faster.
Sump pumps should be tested every spring and fall. We pour water into the basin to make sure it activates and drains properly. Sewer lines should be inspected and hydro-jetted every couple of years, especially in older homes or those with large trees nearby. These preventative cleanings reduce the risk of clogs and backups that can cause serious property damage.
Garbage disposals, dishwashers, and washing machine hoses should all be checked for leaks and tight connections. Even small drips can damage cabinets, flooring, and drywall if they go unnoticed.
We offer maintenance plans for customers who want extra peace of mind. These plans typically include a full annual inspection, drain cleaning discounts, emergency service priority, and savings on repairs or upgrades throughout the year. We keep track of your system so you do not have to.
Having a plan in place means you get regular service without having to remember when something is due. You also get access to emergency services faster, which makes a big difference when you’re dealing with water on the floor or a backed-up drain. Most of our customers find the savings in avoided repairs and water bills far outweigh the annual cost of the plan.
When you let us stay on top of your plumbing, you avoid surprises. You protect your home. And you extend the life of the systems you rely on every single day. That is what preventative maintenance is all about.
We uphold the highest standards in the industry, using top-tier tools and techniques to get the job done right. With extensive knowledge and years of experience, we’re ready to handle any sewer or drain crisis, ensuring swift, professional service you can trust.

They were immensely professional, timely, and knowledgeable. Upon arriving to our flooded basement- they immediately took charge and expertly navigated the situation/identified the cause. Communicating with them about times, $$$ and planning was efficient and effortless. We will absolutely never seek out any other company for our plumbing needs. Thanks guys!!!Posted on Bruce Mapes2025-10-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a bad backup of my kitchen and bathroom sink. I called Mike at World Class and he responded within hours and kept me informed when he was delayed at the prior job. It was a very difficult blockage due to my old galvanized pipes and a T-joint that joined the two. Mike spent almost 2 hours trying to get it unclogged. Most people would have given up, but he persisted and got it cleared. He lived-up to his “world-Class” name. Thanks Mike, I will be calling you again, and recommending you to anyone who asks.Posted on Joy Kim2025-10-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Had a major issue with a clogged septic which created backflow and a mess into my basement. Mike and the team came within an hour and fixed everything. Amazing team, and explanation of what happened and what needed to be done to properly to prevent. I would recommend 100% and definitely utilize again as they were honest, reliable and professional.Posted on David K2025-09-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a major issue in my basement with how the plumbing was set up. The previous owner had set up a horrible system. I had three other plumbers look at the issue and all of them misdiagnosed the issue. Mike and Mike recognized it right away and did fantastic work fixing it. Recently, they cleaned out a blockage in my septic tank pipe and replaced a toilet. Throughout the process they walked me through each step of what they were doing. When identifying issues they provided multiple solutions and recommendations. They are extremely professional, always respond quickly, and provide fantastic quality work. I can't recommend them enough.Posted on Richard Levow2025-08-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On April 19th, 2025 the downstairs toilet in our home overflowed. As a result, the den level and basement required full remediation. This included removing all of the paneling in the den as well as sheetrock in the bathroom and basement. Once the carpeting was removed, we discovered that the floor tile was asbestos which required an additional protocol for removal. Fast forward to August 1st. The space was now roughly 70% done. The downstairs toilet was still not replaced. Someone flushed the upstairs toilet and water came gushing out of the toilet flange downstairs flooding the bathroom, part of the basement and part of the den. That required 4 days worth of work to be ripped out. In addition, I now had another claim with another deductible. As soon as this happened, I called World Class. Mike and Mike came out in the late afternoon and snaked the line from the outside of the house. They strongly recommended that I have them come back and inspect the sewer line with their camera. Mike returned the next week and we discovered that the sewer line to the main was separated. He explained to me that the situation that I had could be repaired with a high tech machine that they use for this type of problem. The machine coats the pipe with an epoxy resin which is more durable than the current pipe material. He assured me that it would resolve the issue. Mike, Mike, Hector and Gio came out that Friday and worked on the sewer line. They were at the house for roughly 10 hours. They worked in a highly professional manner and explained to me what they were doing as they proceeded. Needless to say having your house flood out twice is very stressful. Mike and Mike were excellent at calming my nerves. I highly recommend them should you ever have sewer or plumbing issues.Posted on Annamarie Burriesci2025-08-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had World Class Sewer & Drain come to my home in Oceanside, NY to install a new toilet and I couldn’t be happier with the service. The technician showed up on time, was professional, and made the whole process quick and stress-free. The installation was done perfectly and they left the bathroom spotless when they were finished. It’s rare to find a company that takes so much pride in their work and truly cares about their customers. If you need any plumbing work done — big or small — I highly recommend World Class Sewer & Drain. Absolutely five-star service!Posted on Google rating score: 5.0 of 5,
