Full Pipe & Drain Services For Salt Lake Area Homes
We offer complete plumbing solutions for your home’s water and gas distribution systems:
Drain Cleaning
Clogged or slow drains create health hazards and property damage if not addressed properly. Millcreek Plumbing provides complete drain cleaning services to restore your plumbing system.
What We Clean
Our drain cleaning services cover all areas of your home including kitchen sink drains, bathroom sink and tub drains, garbage disposals, shower drains, floor drains, laundry drains, main sewer lines, and storm drains.
Our Drain Cleaning Process
We start with a full assessment of your drainage issues, the type of drain affected, and its condition. Our technicians use professional equipment including drain snakes for basic blockage removal, hydro-jetting equipment that uses up to 4,000 PSI water to clean pipe walls, and video inspection cameras to identify the exact location and cause of clogs.
Professional vs DIY Drain Cleaning
Store-bought drain cleaners clear minor blockages temporarily, but professional drain cleaning removes all buildup from your pipes for long-term results. Our service removes soap scum, hair, grease and debris completely, prevents recurring clogs, improves water flow, reduces odors, and extends the life of your plumbing system.
Leak Repair
Water leaks waste thousands of gallons annually and cause extensive property damage. Millcreek Plumbing provides fast water leak repair services to protect your home and reduce water bills.
Types of Leaks We Repair
We handle pipe joint leaks, cracked or burst pipes, faucet and fixture leaks, water heater leaks, toilet leaks, under-slab leaks, burst water pipes or hoses, and wall and ceiling leaks.
Our Leak Repair Process
Every leak repair starts with diagnosis. We find the source of the leak, assess damage to surrounding areas, recommend solutions based on your budget and needs, complete the repair using quality materials, and test the system to confirm proper operation.
Pipe Materials We Work With
Our technicians work with all pipe materials found in Salt Lake area homes including copper pipes, PEX piping, CPVC pipes, PVC pipes, galvanized steel, and cast iron pipes. We recommend replacing galvanized steel and old cast iron pipes with modern materials for better longevity and water quality.
Leak Detection
Hidden leaks waste water and damage your home’s structure before you discover them. Millcreek Plumbing uses advanced technology to find leaks without damaging your property.
Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak
Watch for unexplained increases in water bills, sound of running water when no fixtures are in use, warm spots on floors, wet or discolored areas on walls or ceilings, musty odors or mold growth, and low water pressure throughout the home.
Our Leak Detection Technology
We use acoustic sensors to hear water movement behind walls, thermal imaging cameras to detect temperature variations, moisture meters for precise humidity readings, video inspection equipment for underground pipes, and pressure testing to isolate problem areas.
Benefits of Professional Leak Detection
We provide exact location within inches, no damage to walls or floors, cost savings by catching problems early, full system inspection, and detailed reports for insurance claims.
Natural Gas Lines
Safe, reliable gas service requires proper installation and maintenance of gas lines. Millcreek Plumbing provides licensed gas line services for your home’s heating, cooking and hot water needs.
Gas Line Services
We handle new gas line installation, gas line repairs and replacements, gas leak detection and repair, gas appliance connections, gas line pressure testing, and upgrades from galvanized to modern materials.
Safety First
Gas lines must be fixed immediately when they leak. Our licensed technicians follow local codes and regulations, use proper materials and fittings, test all connections, respond to gas emergencies immediately, and obtain necessary permits.
Signs of Gas Leaks
Contact us immediately if you notice gas smell (rotten egg odor), hissing sounds near gas lines, dead landscaping near underground lines, or physical symptoms like headaches or dizziness. If you think you have a gas leak, turn off the gas supply, leave the area and call us from a safe location.
Video Drain Line Inspection & Sewer Scope
Stop guessing what’s wrong with your drains. Millcreek Plumbing’s video drain line inspection technology shows you exactly what’s happening inside your pipes without digging up your yard or tearing out walls.
How Video Drain Inspection Works
We insert a waterproof, high-definition camera mounted on a flexible cable through your drain lines or cleanout access points. The camera transmits live footage to our monitor, showing exactly what’s inside your pipes. Our cameras navigate pipes from 2″ to 36″ in diameter and travel up to 200′ through your plumbing system.
Camera Drain Inspection
When your drains run slow or back up repeatedly, our drain camera inspection finds the exact problem without guesswork. We identify clogs, breaks and obstructions that traditional methods can’t reach and provide the best solution to restore proper drainage.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Frequent backups, unexplained odors or soggy spots in your yard indicate potential sewer line problems. Our sewer camera inspection shows what’s happening underground – from tree root intrusion to cracked pipes – before damage spreads to your foundation or landscaping.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes drain clogs and pipe damage?
A: Common causes include hair, soap scum, grease buildup, tree root intrusion, and aging pipe materials. Kitchen drains clog from grease and food particles, while bathroom drains block from hair and soap residue.
Can I use chemical drain cleaners or should I call a professional?
A: Avoid chemical drain cleaners as they can damage pipes and fixtures. These harsh chemicals may clear surface clogs temporarily but often worsen the problem and harm your plumbing system. Professional cleaning provides safe, effective, long-term solutions.
How can I prevent future clogs and pipe problems?
A: Use drain screens to catch hair and debris, avoid pouring grease down drains, run hot water after each use, and schedule annual plumbing inspections. Regular maintenance prevents small issues from becoming major repairs.
How can I prevent outdoor pipes from freezing and bursting in winter?
A: Disconnect garden hoses, install frost-free hose bibs, winterize your sprinkler system, and insulate exposed pipes. We provide complete winterization services to protect your outdoor plumbing from Utah’s freezing temperatures.
