    Professional Drain Cleaning

    Clogged drains are one of the most common plumbing issues homeowners and business owners face. Over time, soap residue, grease, food particles, hair, and other debris can build up inside pipes, restricting water flow.

    Our plumbers clear clogs in:

    • Kitchen sinks
    • Bathroom sinks
    • Showers and bathtubs

    Sewer Line Repair

    Your sewer line carries wastewater away from your home or business and into the municipal sewer system. When this line becomes damaged or blocked, serious plumbing problems can occur.

    Common causes of sewer line problems include:

    • Tree root intrusion
    • Pipe corrosion
    • Aging sewer pipes
    • Soil shifting
    • Heavy debris buildup

    Brian Wear Plumbing provides sewer line repair services throughout Columbia and Mid-Missouri. Our plumbers inspect sewer systems, locate the source of the problem, and perform repairs that restore proper wastewater flow.

    Hydro Jetting Services

    Some drain and sewer blockages are too severe for traditional drain cleaning methods. In these cases, hydro jetting may be recommended.

    Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to thoroughly clean the inside of pipes and remove stubborn buildup such as grease, sludge, scale, and debris.

    Benefits of hydro jetting include:

    • Thorough pipe cleaning
    • Removal of stubborn grease and debris
    • Improved water flow
    • Reduced risk of recurring clogs

    Brian Wear Plumbing provides professional hydro jetting services in Columbia and Mid-Missouri to restore heavily clogged drain and sewer lines.

    Sump Pump Installation and Repair

    Sump pumps play an important role in protecting homes from water damage and basement flooding. These systems collect excess groundwater and pump it safely away from the home’s foundation.

    When sump pumps fail or stop operating correctly, water can accumulate quickly in basements and crawl spaces.

    Brian Wear Plumbing provides sump pump installation and sump pump repair services throughout Mid-Missouri. Our plumbers install reliable systems designed to protect your home from flooding and repair existing pumps that are not operating properly.

    Regular inspection and maintenance can help ensure your sump pump works when you need it most.
