Hello Summerville

Get to know Swell Guy Plumbing

Meet Steven Dyson: Owner & Licensed Plumber
I’m a lifelong Lowcountry resident. After graduating from The Citadel in 1995 and serving in the U.S. Army and Army National Guard, I earned my plumbing license in 1997. Today, I call Summerville home.
The Story Behind the Name
You might assume "Swell Guy" just means a friendly plumber—and while I aim to be one, the name actually has a deeper story. In 2023, I was diagnosed with spondyloarthritis, an auto-immune condition causing severe joint swelling (hence the pufferfish in our logo). Doctors thought I might have to hang up my wrench for good. But thanks to modern medicine and a drive to keep moving, I’m right back doing the work I’ve loved for nearly three decades.
Hands-On Care for Your Home
You won’t find me hiding behind a desk. I’m on-site for every job, getting my hands dirty in the Summerville heat. Hard work keeps me sharp, keeps me active, and guarantees your home gets the personal, high-quality attention it deserves.

I can’t say enough good things about Steve! He came out the same day when we had an issue with our water heater and did an absolutely amazing job. He was professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and got everything repaired quickly and correctly. It’s not often you find someone who genuinely takes pride in their work and goes the extra mile for their customers. Steve was exactly that kind of professional. He made a stressful situation much easier and gave us peace of mind knowing the repair was done right. I highly recommend Steve to anyone who needs plumbing or water heater work. Excellent service from start to finish!

Steven was great! We had an issue that resurfaced after 2 years and he was quick, prompt, and communicated extremely well to keep us informed on where we were at through the entire process. This is the only plumbing company we trust with our business. True, honest, and always willing to take care of the customer anyway possible!

Frequently Asked Questions

Our $45 dispatch/scheduling fee simply covers getting our truck and plumber to your door.

A separate diagnostic fee is applied if we have to spend time uncovering a hidden issue—such as isolating a hard-to-find leak, testing internal components on a tankless water heater, or running a sewer camera.

Fortunately, 95% of the time, we can pinpoint the issue in under 10 minutes and won't charge a diagnostic fee at all. Our goal is to fix your plumbing problem, not nickel-and-dime you before we even shake hands.

Swell Guy Plumbing Co charges a $45 dispatch/scheduling fee (during normal service hours) to visit your property. The $45 counts towards any work we perform.

Swell Guy Plumbing offers transparent price ranges for many of our services which can be viewed on our website. We do not give prices over the phone because we have to look at the job first to give you a definite price.

Spending long hours working in the Lowcountry sun means constant UV exposure. After having two basal cell carcinomas removed from my right ear, protecting my skin became a priority. Applying sunscreen constantly and wearing wide-brim hats gets tricky while doing hands-on plumbing work, so I switched to UV-rated hoodies. The neon color is just a bonus—I like bright colors, and it makes me easy to spot!

No. Swell Guy Plumbing is 100% local and the owner is a lifelong Lowcountry resident.
