Brevard County Flooding: Don’t forget about your plumbing!

November 5, 2026

Brevard County has been hit hard by the recent historic rainfall and flooding, leaving many homeowners dealing with flooded yards, water-damaged homes, and unexpected property damage. While the standing water may eventually disappear, the plumbing problems left behind can linger long after the floodwaters recede.

At Carl Kandiko Plumbing Services, Inc., we understand how stressful situations like this can be.  Our community has been through a lot, and we’re here to help local homeowners get their plumbing back in working order

Flood Damage doesn’t always stop when the water goes down

Flooding and saturated ground can put tremendous stress on your home’s plumbing system.  Even if your home wasn’t completely underwater, excessive rainfall and rising groundwater can create plumbing problems you may not notice right away.

Here are a few things homeowners should watch for:

  • Slow or backed-up drains:  Heavy rainfall and saturated ground can contribute to drainage and sewer problems.
  • Sewer line issues:  Flooding can expose existing weaknesses in underground sewer pipes and may contribute to shifting or damage.
  • Cast Iron Drain Problems:  Older cast iron piping may already have corrosion, cracks, or deterioration that becomes more noticeable when drainage problems develop.
  • Sewer Odors:  Unusual sewage smells or gurgling drains could indicate a drainage or sewer issue.

Don’t ignore the warning signs!

If you’re noticing toilets that aren’t flushing properly, multiple slow drains, water backing up into tubs or showers, or unusual plumbing odors, don’t simply assume the problem will go away on its own.

Having your plumbing evaluated early may help prevent a small problem from becoming a much bigger and more expensive repair.
