Your drains flow. Your water pressure’s back. The leak that had you second-guessing every ceiling stain is gone for good.
That’s what matters. Not the sales pitch or the five-minute diagnosis that turns into a three-hour upsell. You called because something’s wrong, and when we leave, it’s fixed.
Most homes in Turnbull were built in the late ’80s and early ’90s. That means original cast iron pipes are hitting the age where they don’t just slow down—they fail. Sometimes behind walls. Sometimes under slabs. Almost always when it’s least convenient.
We handle drain replacement, PVC pipe upgrades, emergency plumbing repairs, and the kind of problems that make you wonder if your insurance will even cover it. The answer depends on the pipe, the damage, and how long it’s been leaking. But the fix? That part’s straightforward.
Drain Wizard is a family-owned plumbing contractor serving Turnbull, FL and the rest of Brevard County. We’re state-certified, BBB A+ rated, and backed by over 40 years of combined plumbing experience and 20 years of military service.
That military background shows up in how we work. We show up on time. We do what we say we’ll do. We don’t leave a job half-finished or a mess in your driveway.
Turnbull’s a quiet area with older homes and homeowners who’ve been here long enough to know when someone’s being straight with them. We’re not the cheapest option, and we’re not trying to be. What we are is thorough, honest, and really good at solving the kind of underground plumbing problems that most people don’t even know they have until water starts showing up where it shouldn’t.
First, we figure out what’s actually wrong. That usually means a video camera inspection if it’s a drain or sewer line issue. No guessing. No tearing up your yard to “see what’s down there.” We locate the problem, show you what we’re looking at, and explain what needs to happen.
Then we give you a real estimate. Not a range. Not a “depends on what we find” disclaimer that doubles halfway through. You’ll know what the job costs before we start.
Once you’re good to go, we handle everything—permits, excavation if needed, safe removal of old cast iron pipe, installation of new PVC or updated water lines, and cleanup. If the job involves going from your house to the street, we manage that too. Everything gets brought up to code, tested, and left in better shape than we found it.
Most jobs wrap in a day or two, depending on scope. Emergency plumbing repairs obviously move faster. Either way, you’re not waiting around wondering when your water’s coming back on.

We specialize in full-service residential plumbing. That covers drain cleaning, drain replacement, sewer line repairs, water heater work, fixture upgrades, and full repiping when your system’s beyond patching.
If your home was built before the mid-’90s in Turnbull, there’s a decent chance you’ve still got cast iron drain pipes. Florida’s humidity and soil conditions are tough on cast iron. It corrodes faster here than it does in drier climates. After 25 to 30 years, those pipes start thinning out, rusting through, or developing pinhole leaks that turn into bigger problems.
We pull out the old cast iron and replace it with PVC—lighter, longer-lasting, and way less likely to give you trouble down the road. We also handle partial blockages, root intrusion, and standing water issues that point to bigger drainage problems.
For emergency plumbing services, we’re talking burst pipes, water heater failures, sewer backups, or anything else that can’t wait until Monday. We move fast, but we don’t skip steps. The goal is to stop the damage, fix the source, and make sure it doesn’t happen again next month.
If your home in Turnbull was built in the ’80s or early ’90s and you’ve never had the pipes replaced, you’re in the window where problems start showing up. Look for slow drains that don’t respond to normal cleaning, water stains on ceilings or walls, or a sewage smell that comes and goes.
Cast iron pipes don’t usually fail all at once. They corrode from the inside out, so by the time you see a leak, the damage has been building for a while. A video camera inspection will tell you exactly what’s happening inside those pipes—whether they’re thinning, cracked, or already leaking behind a wall.
Most insurance companies in Florida won’t cover the cost of replacing old pipes. They might cover the water damage, but not the pipe itself. That’s considered maintenance. So if you’re seeing signs, it’s worth getting ahead of it before a small leak turns into a full-scale remediation job.
Drain cleaning handles clogs—grease buildup, hair, soap scum, or tree roots that have worked their way into the line. We use a cable or hydro jet to clear the blockage and get things flowing again. It’s a same-day fix in most cases.
Drain replacement is what happens when the pipe itself is the problem. If the line is cracked, corroded, or collapsing, cleaning it won’t help. You need a new pipe. That means excavation, removal of the old line, and installation of a new PVC drain system.
We’ll know which one you need after we run a camera through the line. If it’s just a clog, we’ll clear it and you’re done. If the pipe’s shot, we’ll walk you through what replacement looks like, how long it takes, and what it costs. No upselling. Just the fix that actually solves the problem.
Yes. If you’ve got a burst pipe, a backed-up sewer line, or a water heater that just gave out, we’ll get someone out as fast as we can. Emergency plumbing services are about stopping the damage first, then fixing the source.
Water moves fast. A burst supply line can dump gallons per minute into your home, and once drywall or flooring gets soaked, you’re looking at mold risk within 24 hours. Our job is to shut off the water, assess the damage, and get the repair done so you can start drying things out.
We’ve been serving Brevard County since 2007, and we know how these situations go. The faster you call, the less damage you’re dealing with. We’re not going to show up, shrug, and tell you to call someone else. We handle it.
Most residential drain replacements take one to two days, depending on how much pipe needs to go and where it’s located. If we’re replacing a section under your slab or running a new line from the house to the street, that’s the longer end. If it’s a shorter run or an above-ground section, it’s usually faster.
We’re not tearing up more of your property than we need to. We locate the problem area, excavate carefully, pull the old pipe, install the new PVC line, backfill, and clean up. If permits are required, we handle that before we start.
The timeline also depends on whether we hit any surprises—unexpected roots, collapsed sections, or soil issues. But we’ll tell you up front what to expect, and if something changes, you’ll know right away. No one likes a job that drags on for a week when it should’ve taken two days.
Probably not for the pipes themselves. Most homeowner’s insurance policies in Florida don’t cover wear and tear, which is how they classify aging cast iron pipes. If your pipe bursts and causes water damage to your floors, walls, or belongings, they might cover the damage—but not the cost of replacing the pipe that caused it.
Some insurance carriers won’t even cover homes with cast iron pipes anymore, or they’ll raise your premiums if they find out you still have them. It’s worth checking your policy or calling your agent to see where you stand.
The good news is that replacing old pipes before they fail can actually save you money in the long run. A pipe replacement might cost a few thousand dollars. Water damage remediation and mold removal can easily hit $15,000 to $30,000. We’ve seen it happen, and it’s almost always preventable if you catch the problem early.
We cover all of Brevard County and the Space Coast. That includes Turnbull, Cocoa, Rockledge, Merritt Island, Titusville, and the surrounding areas. If you’re within a reasonable distance of our service area, we’ll come out.
Turnbull’s a smaller community, so not every plumbing contractor makes the trip. We do, and we’ve been working in this area long enough to know the common issues—older homes, cast iron pipes, septic systems, and the kind of soil and water conditions that affect how plumbing holds up over time.
Whether it’s a routine repair, a drain replacement, or an emergency call, we treat every job the same. Show up, do the work right, and leave your property in good shape. That’s been our approach since 2007, and it’s why people keep calling us back.
