South Carolina plumbing FAQ

How do I check a plumber's license in South Carolina?

South Carolina's Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation licenses residential plumbers through the Residential Builders Commission.

Do pipes freeze in South Carolina?

Occasionally. Hard freezes don't happen every winter, which is why they cause so much damage when they do: many homes have exposed pipes and hose bibs that were never protected.

Is South Carolina water hard?

Generally soft, based on national hardness mapping, but it varies by utility and by well. Your water provider's annual water quality report lists the hardness for your system, and a plumber can test well water.

How old are homes in South Carolina?

Census estimates for South Carolina put 13% of homes as built before 1960, 21% from 1960 to 1979, 32% from 1980 to 1999 and 35% in 2000 or later. Older homes are more likely to have galvanized supply pipe and cast iron or clay sewer lines.
