FAQs

What is drain opening and why is it important?

Drain opening is a process used to remove blockages from plumbing systems to ensure proper water flow. Over time, drains can accumulate debris, grease, hair, and other materials, potentially leading to clogs or even backups. Regular drain opening helps maintain efficiency, prevents costly damage, and avoids potential health hazards caused by stagnant water.

How often should drain openings be performed?

It depends on the usage and environment of your plumbing system. For residential properties in Briceville, it is generally recommended to have a drain opening at least once a year. However, if you have an older system, experience frequent blockages, or if your household generates more waste (e.g. grease in kitchens or hair in bathrooms), more frequent cleaning might be necessary.

What are the signs that my drains need a professional opening?

Common signs include slow draining water, unusual gurgling noises, unpleasant odors coming from the drains, or visible backflow of water. If you notice these issues persist despite trying DIY solutions, it is best to contact a professional. Ignoring these signs may lead to more severe blockages or even system backups.

Do you offer emergency drain opening services in Briceville?

Yes, we understand that drain issues can occur at any time and can be particularly disruptive. Our team in Briceville is available for emergency drain opening services. We aim to respond quickly to prevent further damage or inconvenience, even outside of standard business hours.

What methods and tools are used for drain opening?

Our professionals use a combination of mechanical and hydro-jet techniques, depending on the severity and location of the clog. Mechanical snakes are effective for minor blockages, while high-pressure hydro-jetting can clear more stubborn buildups and residues from the pipes. This ensures that the drain is thoroughly cleaned and restored to optimal performance.

How can I prevent future clogs after a drain opening?

Preventative measures include regular maintenance, avoiding the disposal of grease, oil, or fibrous food particles in the sink, and using drain guards to catch hair and larger debris. Additionally, scheduling periodic professional drain opening services can keep the plumbing system functioning smoothly. Simple routine practices can help in minimizing the buildup of clog-causing materials.

I recommend Hep to everyone I know. Their service is always outstanding. I had been dealing with my home warranty company over a stoppage for 5 days with no-one who could unclog it. I called HEP and they sent Nathan Hardesty to my house in 2 hours ans he fixed the clog in no time!! He was extremely professional, cleaned up everything when he was done and gave me very clear explantions of what the issue was and what was done to fix it! I can't thank him enough or Hep!! They are the best!!! Also a big thank you to Nick Hardesty and Jesse George for helping out as well!!! Hep has the best service in town!!!

Hep came out the same day for a septic drain problem. Their technicians, Will and John, came out and accessed and fixed the problem in no time flat. Very professional and courteous. They deserve a pat on the back. Thank you.

Quick and quality service. Great guys, dug up 2 tanks and pumped them both in a timely manner. I thought we needed a new pump, but these guys just pointed out all it was a pipe had disconnected so the pump wasn't pulling anything. Noticing the problem, they were quick to fix it. James and Pete, you guys rock!

Had drain clog issue. Called HEP for service. The staff was very nice and scheduled appointment. Plumbing Specialist Nathan Hardesty was great. He took the time to listen, check the issue and made the repairs . He made sure to clean after the work was finished. Thanks for a great experience with repairs.

After calling several local plumbers, finally called HEP... very helpful young lady answered and set up a plumber to come out the same day. We had been out of water all day and Nathan Hardesty showed just after 7 pm, as he said he would and went right to work. In just over 30 minutes he had crawled under my house and fixed the problem. Very pleasant young man as was his helper. The price was a little higher than I anticipated, but well worth it since I didn't have to crawl under the house. Future needs will call HEP again and hope they send Nathan and his partner out again.

I contracted with HEP to install a drain strip in a slab outside my garage door (water in heavy rains would flood the garage and then my den). They sent out two men who did a great job. The task took longer then they estimated, but they did a really nice installation. It looks like it was there when the slab was installed. What they did in a day and a half would have taken me 6 weeks to do. It cost a little more then I expected, but it was worth it. This is just one of many projects I have had done by HEP, all of which I was happy with.
