Common Plumbing Issues in Matthews
Older Sewer Lines
Downtown Matthews and the neighborhoods built in the 1960s through 1980s often have original clay or cast iron sewer laterals. Tree roots penetrate joints and cause backups. We use video camera inspection to diagnose and offer trenchless repair options.
Polybutylene Pipe Problems
Some Matthews homes built in the 1980s and early 1990s have polybutylene (poly-B) water supply lines. These plastic pipes are known to fail without warning, causing sudden flooding. If your home has gray or blue plastic pipes, a whole-house repipe is strongly recommended.
Well Water Issues (Union County Side)
Properties on the Union County side of Matthews (28104 zip code) may still be on well water. Well pump failures, pressure tank issues, and iron staining are common. We service well plumbing systems in addition to municipal connections.
Garbage Disposal Failures
Garbage disposals in Matthews homes typically last 8 to 12 years. We replace and install disposals from InSinkErator and Waste King, with same-day service in most cases.

About Matthews Plumbing Conditions
Matthews straddles the Mecklenburg-Union County line, which means different permitting requirements depending on which side of town you're on. The town's historic Stumptown District near downtown has some of the oldest homes in the area. Matthews' proximity to Independence Boulevard (US 74) makes it a quick commute to Charlotte but also means older utility infrastructure along the corridor.
Frequently Asked Questions — Matthews Plumbing
Do you serve both the Mecklenburg and Union County sides of Matthews?
Yes. We serve all of Matthews including the 28105 (Mecklenburg) and 28104 (Union County) zip codes. Our response times are the same for both areas since we're based nearby in Indian Trail.
My Matthews home has polybutylene pipes. What should I do?
We recommend repiping with PEX or copper as soon as possible. Polybutylene pipes can fail suddenly and cause significant water damage. We offer free repiping estimates and can usually complete the work in 1 to 2 days for a typical Matthews home.
Can you fix a sewer backup in Matthews the same day?
In most cases, yes. Sewer backups are treated as emergencies. We'll arrive with camera inspection equipment to diagnose the problem and can usually clear the line or perform a repair the same day.
