Have you ever had a plumbing problem spiral out of control? It's easier than you might think - one minute you're trying to unclog a toilet with a DIY fix your friend told you about.

Other benefits of repining include:
Who doesn't love their garbage disposal? Aside from its loud noise, it can work wonders for food disposal and general kitchen cleanup. But tidying up after dinner is a lot harder when you flip that little switch, and your disposal doesn't work as it should. When your garbage disposal is clogged, it can snowball into other plumbing problems like sink clogs and even piping issues.
Though the most common culprit behind garbage disposal clogs is rust and hard items that jam up the propeller, worn blades and inefficient food disposal are also on the list. In some cases, corroded motor wiring impacts disposal failure, which can even cause shock hazards.
To ensure your family is safe and your garbage disposal is fixed, it's best to call Servant Plumbing for a garbage disposal inspection. Our expert plumbers in Ravenel, SC, have the proper tools and training to fix even the most confusing garbage disposal problems, like:

RAVENEL, S.C. (WCIV) — A proposal for new development that has riled up neighbors for months is one step closer to coming to the Town of Ravenel.
The Tumbleston family has requested to rezone 99 acres of land to build 100 single-family homes and create over 50 acres of green space. Their original request was withdrawn in March but then came back into conversation.
In a special-called meeting Monday night, the town council approved the rezoning request and the development agreement with little discussion. Under the new plan, a 100-foot greenspace buffer will be around the entire neighborhood and no construction will happen on the Drayton side of the neighborhood – except for the driveway entrance.
Susan Hendricks– a family member – said they think the project would help the growing town.
“The town has changed a lot from when my mom grew up and it has changed a lot from when I grew up,” Hendricks said. “It will continue to change and we want to be able to move forward and for there to be life here and not be just a dead town.”

But that change is exactly what other neighbors fear.
They worry this project will have a domino effect and could open the door for overdevelopment, inevitably changing the character of Ravenel.
“We were bonded by fear, not by anger. And we just don't know what's going to happen to the town that we love and want to stay the same,” said Stephanie Russell.
Russell has lived in Ravenel for three years and said its rural charm makes people love the area and want to live there.
Hendricks said her family has listened to the community’s concerns. Since putting the request back on the table, the family has added a promise to donate $2,000 for every approved home to the town’s housing needs – not to exceed $200,000.
“There are people in town that need help with new roofs, porches, repairs to their homes, and right now, the town does not have any type of benefit for that,” she explained.

This will set a precedent for future development, Hendricks said.
Despite changes made to the original request like reducing the number of homes from 150 to 100, neighbors still say they don’t feel the town leaders took their concerns seriously.
“There are parts where we definitely have been heard and I absolutely appreciate that, but I do feel that at least at this juncture, this has been decided a while ago,” Russell said. “The ink's dry.”
Stephen W. Tumbleston, the mayor of Ravenel, has recused himself from all discussions on the matter as it is his family’s land and request.
The rezoning and development requests will go for a final vote in the next town council meeting on July 30.

RAVENEL, S.C. (WCSC) - Ravenel Town Council decided to table a vote Tuesday night on a housing development proposal that has riled neighbors.
Both the development agreement for the project and the rezoning request go hand-in-hand, and neither was voted on.
Councilman James Rodgers Jr. made the motion to table the matter due to the absence of Councilman Robert Cochran, saying his expertise within the Town of Ravenel should be valued and a part of the vote.
Tuesday’s vote and discussion followed the Tumbleston Trust, or property owners of the land in question, issuing changes to their original proposal they withdrew back in March before the council could vote.
They want to develop a 100-new-home subdivision on around 99 acres of land on Drayton Street. The changes include that the entire neighborhood will have a 100-foot greenspace buffer around it and there will be no construction on the Drayton Street side of the neighborhood except for the driveway entrance.
The Tumbleston family also made an addition to the plan, saying they will donate $2,000 for every approved and permitted home site in the neighborhood, “The Pasture at FarrField,” toward community housing needs, such as repairs.
“Sometimes just staying the same is what we all love,” Tumbleston Trust family member Susan Hendricks said. “Ravenel is very different now than when I was growing up and I think that’s the way life is, and when life changes, we hope that we can help it change for the best.”
Several residents have been fighting back against the proposal for months, saying it will take away the one little shred of peace they have in the heart of Ravenel.
The move to table the votes has left those opposing the development confused.
“I absolutely have no clue as to why they would table it,” Michael Felix said. “They had the full momentum of people wanting to approve it. Only time will tell of why they actually tabled it.”
Not everyone is against the subdivision, as many residents submitted letters that were read out loud to the council tonight saying they were in support of this.
“There is a growing support that we are very thankful for of our project, and this includes one of the main landowners that lives next door, and we are thankful for that,” Hendricks said.
Councilmembers will have to vote to take the development agreement and the rezoning request off the table, and it is unknown when that will happen.

RAVENEL, S.C. (WCSC) - It’s back to the drawing board for the owners of a large piece of land in the Town of Ravenel.
A rezoning request for the town was withdrawn Tuesday afternoon hours before the council was set to vote on the controversial matter.
Residents have mixed emotions on the latest development, as many feel that the withdrawal is a win because their voices are being heard, but they say that this fight is far from over.
“I am cautiously optimistic, but again it makes me feel like we are left with more questions than we are with answers,” Stephanie Russell said.
If the council were to vote yes, the rezoning would have meant a subdivision, “the Pasture at FarrField,” with at least 100 homes on Drayton Street in the rural town, something residents were strongly against.
“This isn’t over by any stretch of the imagination, and the citizens here who have been vocal and present in making our feelings known aren’t going away either so they just need to come up with something that is reasonable,” Roy Smith said
Smith said he does applaud the property owners for listening to the community and pulling the plug for now.
Susan Hendricks, a Tumbleston Trust family member, said in a statement, “The public conversations over the past two weeks have identified a number of planning changes which can be made to enhance the Pasture at FarrField and help address housing needs in the area. Our family and legal team need more time to evaluate the requests and how they might be incorporated into our plan. Our family wants this done right, therefore we have withdrawn our current request. We know the Pasture at FarrField will provide a wonderful opportunity for growing local families to be able to enjoy desirable housing options and stay in Ravenel rather than having to leave town to find a place to live.”
“We just want them to build with the zoning that they currently have, and nobody would stand in their way of doing one home per one acre,” Olivia McCarty said. “We want to live with the environment and not destroy everything that makes this town beautiful.”
Mayor Pro Tem Buckey Waters confirmed Tuesday evening that if the owners are to request the rezone in the future, they will have to start the process over completely, starting by going to the planning and zoning commission. Waters also confirmed the owners can resubmit the rezoning request at any time.

However, those living in the area have concerns. There is an online petitionwith over 400 signatures from Ravenel residents who want the current zoning ordinance to remain in place and are against any change.
The Town Council will hold a workshop on the matter on Thursday. Public comment will not be permitted during the workshop.
Residents will be allowed to speak on the matter at the Town Council meeting on March 20. Registration must be completed by March 18 at 3 p.m.
Olivia McCarthy, who has been living along Drayton Street for the past two years, says one of the reasons she moved to Ravenel is the current atmosphere of the town and she doesn't that to go away.
"Developers are allowed to build in a density of one home per acre," McCarthy said. "We want the town to keep the current zoning they have and the community. Town laws and restrictions are in place to protect us. This movement would be welcoming and open arms about developers building at the density the town has currently provisioned them to do."
Tumbleston Trust has expressed plans to integrate the proposed development into the existing rural landscape of the town, but people living near the property say they are concerned about traffic impacts in the area and wetlands not being protected. They also feel they will lose the character of the town.
"Our comprehensive plan and the identity of our community in Ravenel is an agricultural-based community," continued McCarty. "That's why we love it. We love living with nature, having space to breathe, and for our children to be able to run around. We want preserve that character of our community."
"All of the adjacent property owners to this proposed development are on well water," she continued. "There's a huge public safety concern that the infrastructure could not support 120 plus septic tanks."

Susan Hendricks of the Tumbleston family wants to reassure the community that the character will remain the same if the rezoning is approved.
"The Pasture at FarrField neighborhood is designed by locals with locals in mind," Hendricks said in a statement. "Local professional planning experts and engineers will go into detail about the abundance of recreational greenspace, natural neighborhood buffers, a modern septic system, and the comprehensive traffic study, which shows the neighborhood will not negatively impact the traffic flow."
"Next week, the public will have an opportunity to comment fully with a specially-held public comment session," she continued in her statement. My family and I want this to be a transparent, informative process for our community. We have deep roots in Ravenel and we all see how our region is growing. We are proposing thoughtful growth, which I believe maintains the charm of our community."
Ravenel Mayor Stephen Tumbleston, a member of the Tumbleston family, has recused himself from the matter. Mayor Pro Tem Buckey Waters will participate.
