Plumbers · the Lowcountry
Salt, sand and age decide a lot of plumbing jobs in this area. Many Hilton Head villas date from the 1980s and are on their second or third round of pipes, fixtures and water heaters, often in shared walls where one leak becomes the neighbor's problem too. Most Bluffton homes were built after 2000 and are now replacing their first water heaters and builder-grade fixtures. Out in rural Jasper County, plenty of properties run on a private well and a septic tank.
Ask whether the plumber works on wells and septic systems or only on public water and sewer, and who pulls the permit. Ray Croft explains the license lookup in how to check a contractor's license.
Learn where the main shutoff is before anybody needs it. I've walked into a lot of second homes where nobody, owner included, knew, and a slow drip had all month to work. Have the plumber show you and hang a tag on it.
