Across the 77 South Carolina towns we route calls in, 64% of housing units are detached houses and 19% are in multi-unit buildings. That split decides who owns the machine under the sink, which decides who pays for it.

The quick answer

SinkGrind is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We carry out no work, we sell no equipment, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.
