YOUR TRUSTED PLUMBER IN JOHNS ISLAND, SC – HONEST SERVICE. QUALITY WORK.
Schedule Your Appointment
Johns Island is growing fast, but the plumbing inside a renovated River Road farmhouse has almost nothing in common with the plumbing inside a new build near the Maybank Highway corridor. We know, because we’ve worked on both.
Pineapple Plumbing serves homeowners throughout Johns Island with honest repairs, drain cleaning, water heater service, leak detection, fixture installation, garbage disposals, sewer line diagnosis, inspections, and emergency plumbing. Co-owners Austin Holcomb, a U.S. Marine veteran, and Austin Webb, a lifelong Summerville native with over 14 years in the trade, bring a combined 22 years of hands-on plumbing experience to every Johns Island call.
Our approach is simple: find the cause, explain what we found, discuss your options, and give you a clear price before any work begins. No scare tactics. No unnecessary repairs. Just honest plumbing from two local guys whose names are on the truck.

Why Johns Island Plumbing Depends on the Property

Plumbing Services We Provide on Johns Island
General Plumbing Repairs. Running toilets, dripping faucets, unreliable shut-off valves, leaking supply connections, and changes in water pressure. We handle everyday residential repairs while looking beyond the obvious symptom when the pattern suggests something deeper is going on.
Leak Detection and Pipe Repair. Not every leak creates an obvious puddle. Unexpected water use, damp materials, staining, moisture beneath the home, or the sound of water when everything is off all justify investigation. We locate the source before opening more of the home than necessary. One failed fitting doesn’t automatically mean an entire system needs replacement.
Drain Cleaning. A single slow bathroom sink and five slow fixtures are not the same problem. We clear ordinary clogs and investigate recurring or system-wide drainage issues. If the same drain keeps backing up after previous clearing, the useful question is why. That often means looking deeper into the drainage system rather than simply opening the blockage again.
Water Heater Repair and Replacement. No hot water doesn’t automatically mean a new water heater. A repair-versus-replacement recommendation should consider what actually failed, the tank’s condition, previous repairs, age, and whether a dependable repair costs significantly less than replacement. We work with both tank and tankless systems.
Garbage Disposal Repair and Installation. Jammed, humming without grinding, leaking beneath the sink, or completely dead. We check the motor, mounting assembly, drain connections, and dishwasher connection before recommending replacement. A simple repair stays a simple repair when that’s all the system needs.
Fixture Installation. Toilets, faucets, sinks, and shower fixtures installed and replaced. Good fixture work also means checking what sits behind the finished product: shut-off valves, supply lines, drainage connections, and flange condition. That’s especially important in renovated properties where newer fixtures may connect to plumbing from an earlier era.
Sewer Line Diagnosis and Repair. Several drains slowing together, toilets gurgling when another fixture empties, or wastewater appearing in a tub or floor drain can indicate a problem deeper than one fixture. We use sewer camera inspection to identify the location and condition of the issue, then determine whether cleaning, a targeted repair, or replacement actually makes sense.
Plumbing Maintenance and Inspections. Useful when buying a property, maintaining an older home, planning renovations, or trying to understand recurring problems before they become emergencies. Catching a deteriorating valve or small leak early is always easier than discovering it after a failure.
Emergency Plumbing. Burst pipes, uncontrolled leaks, sewage entering the home, significant flooding, or total loss of water throughout the property. Call (843) 739-7438 any time. If water is escaping rapidly, shut off the affected fixture or the main supply when you can do so safely. If sewage is backing up, stop using all plumbing fixtures until the cause is identified.
One Drain or Several? Why the Pattern Matters
This is one of the most useful things a homeowner can pay attention to before calling a plumber.
One fixture affected: the problem is most likely near that fixture or in its branch line. Hair, grease, or debris is the usual cause.
Several drains slow at the same time: the restriction is probably farther downstream in a shared drain or the private sewer lateral.
A toilet gurgles when another fixture drains: air and wastewater movement is being affected deeper in the drainage system. This deserves professional inspection.
Sewage appears at the lowest fixture: stop using water in the home and call immediately. This is urgent.
The whole house suddenly loses water: the issue may involve the supply plumbing, the main shut-off valve, the service connection, or a broader utility interruption.
The pattern doesn’t provide a final diagnosis. It tells the plumber where to start looking. That’s far more useful than assuming every recurring drain problem is caused by roots, groundwater, or soil movement.
What Sets Pineapple Plumbing Apart on Johns Island
We find the cause first. One clogged sink doesn’t automatically mean sewer replacement. One pipe leak doesn’t mean whole-home repiping. An older water heater doesn’t automatically need replacement. We diagnose before we recommend.
Written estimates before work begins. You get a clear price in writing before we start. If the scope changes during the job, we explain why and get your approval before the cost changes.
Veteran owned, locally operated. Austin Holcomb served in the U.S. Marine Corps before entering the plumbing trade. Austin Webb was born and raised in Summerville and has spent 14 years mastering the craft. Together, they built Pineapple Plumbing around straightforward service rather than unnecessary repairs, scare tactics, or surprise charges.
100% satisfaction guarantee. We stand behind every job. If something we repaired fails, we come back and make it right.
Respect for your home. Shoe covers on, work area protected, cleanup when we leave. We treat your home the way we’d want someone to treat ours.
