Quality Service Company, LLC offers yearly plumbing maintenance for homes in Florence, SC and the Pee Dee region. Your tech checks the water heater, pipes, valves and drains, then tells you what’s wearing and why.
Plumbing often fails quietly. A supply line hardens, a water heater anode wears out, or a valve seizes. Most people find out when it lets go.
Why do Florence homes need a yearly plumbing check?
In the City of Florence, the median home was built in 1983. Census data (ACS 2020-2024) shows 46.7% of the city’s homes were built before 1980.
Pipes, valves and water heaters age along with the house. A yearly visit shows you what’s wearing before it fails.
What does a plumbing maintenance visit include?
- Water heater inspection and flush
- Check all supply lines, shutoff valves and visible pipes
- Test water pressure
- Inspect toilets, faucets and drains for leaks and wear
- Check the sump pump if you have one
If something needs repair, your tech explains why and gives you options.
How do you protect your pipes in a Florence freeze?
Florence averages 40 nights a year at 32 degrees or lower, per NOAA normals. Winter 2025-26 brought seven nights at 20 degrees or lower. The coldest was 8 degrees on February 2, 2026.
In December 2022, the City of Florence lost at least 20 million gallons of water. A water main break on Christmas Day and leaks in homes, businesses and sprinkler systems caused it.
During that freeze, residents were told to drip faucets and close vents.
Know where your main water shutoff is. Your tech checks your shutoff valves on every maintenance visit. If a pipe bursts, call (843) 920-2004. We have 24/7 dispatch.

Common questions
Does a water heater need a permit in Florence?
Often, yes: on the City of Florence trade permit form, water heaters fall under plumbing permits. Florence County Building Inspection requires a permit to alter or repair a building. Ask your tech whether the work planned for your home needs one.
Why is my water pressure low?
Low water pressure can start inside your home or in the city system, so the first step is a pressure test. Your tech tests water pressure on every maintenance visit and checks pipes and valves before suggesting a fix. In August 2024, the City of Florence shut its water plant because of Debby river flooding, and system-wide low pressure followed.
