Hey Greenville and Upstate SC! After 30 incredible years immersed in the plumbing trade, I’m thrilled to announce the official launch of Polar Plumbing! This isn't just a new business; it's a lifelong passion and a commitment to serving the community that's always been my home. I’m a proud third-generation plumber, born, raised, and educated right here. From growing up in Greenville to attending school in Greenville County, my roots run deep. Plumbing isn’t just a job for me; it’s a family legacy and a core part of who I am.

"I have known Rusty throughout the duration of his career in plumbing. He started at the bottom, as an employee and worked his way up; establishing himself in the field, as the honest and approachable plumber, who wants to educate his clients. He explains what the problem is and provides different levels of solutions, depending on how urgent the case is, rather than falsifying a sense of urgency. If you’re looking for somebody who is credible and will get the job done, this is who you call."

All too often, the cheapest choice becomes the most expensive choice. Many of our new customers call us to fix the problems caused by hiring the cheap guy the first time around shoddy workmanship, inferior products, unlicensed and uninsured contractors. Over the years, we’ve seen and fixed it all. Ken Flournoy, “The Picky People’s Plumber,” opened Ken’s Plumbing Inc. in 1991 in Greenville, South Carolina. Today, Ken has an expert staff of professional plumbers, who provide services to business owners and homeowners with discriminating tastes. At Ken’s Plumbing, we have your best interest at heart. Our expert technicians care about every detail and provide the highest quality plumbing services 24-7-364, we take Christmas day off. Please give us a call at 864-242-5511 and let us exceed your expectations.

"We had Christian, from Ken's Pluming come out to quote a project for us that involved him going into the attic. Christian damaged our ceiling by putting weight on it and causing a nail-pop in the corner of our guest bedroom. It took us a few days to notice the damage as it happened in the corner of a guest room. We scheduled to have Christian and Craig (Supervisor) come back to view the damage. They had to re-schedule on us and so we moved forward with another contractor completing our project. However, we took a video of the damage from Christian before any work was done by the other contractor so that Christian could not claim it was not him. [*** Link removed ***] When Christian and his supervisor, Craig, came out to look at the damage Christian immediately states he did not even leave the platform, a flat area by the attic door. Then changed his story and said, “I mean, I didn’t go that far over there.” They both noticed we had a new gas line installed, and quickly tried to state that the damage could have been from someone else, fair enough, that’s why we took the video and informed them that we had proof of damage before anyone else was in the attic. Christian flip-flopped and was put on the spot by Craig to either state he did it or did not do it. No strong answer came from him and they both left stating they needed to talk with Ken (Owner) and would get back to us. We were informed today (6/17) after reaching back out for an answer, that they will not be fixing the ceiling as they can not be sure they did it or someone else even after the video evidence so I’m sharing this experience, and the video, as a warning that Ken’s Plumbing doesn’t take responsibility for their tech’s actions."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Main sewer lines can clog for several reasons. For example, if you regularly dump oil or grease down your drain, it could eventually block your line. Sometimes, tree roots can penetrate and grow inside old sewer pipes, creating a major blockage. Flushing bulky items (like paper towels, diapers, or baby wipes) can also clog your plumbing system.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear. 

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

With a one-way cleanout, you can access your sewer line from one direction. Depending on the way it curves, a plumber can either access the side of the pipe that goes into your home or the side that goes to your yard. On the other hand, two-way cleanouts allow pros to access both sides of the sewer line, thanks to their dual-pipe design (they’re usually U-shaped).
