FAQs
What are the most common causes of clogged drains in Crab Orchard homes?
In Crab Orchard, we frequently see clogs caused by a buildup of cooking grease, hair, soap scum, food scraps, and tree-root intrusion in older sewer lines. Hard water minerals can also accumulate in pipes over time. Seasonal leaf debris and mud can wash into outdoor drains as well. Our technicians identify the exact cause with video inspection so we can recommend the best long-term solution.
How do you open a clogged drain, and will you need to dig up my yard?
Most residential blockages are cleared with a powered drain auger or high-pressure water jetting. These methods break up or flush away the obstruction without excavation. If the clog is in a buried sewer line and is caused by roots or a collapsed pipe, we may need to expose a small section for repair. Whenever possible, we use trenchless techniques to minimize yard disturbance.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency drain opening service in Crab Orchard?
Yes. Clogs rarely happen at a convenient time, so our licensed plumbers are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. Call our emergency line, and we will dispatch the nearest available technician to your Crab Orchard address—usually within an hour.
How much does professional drain opening cost?
Prices vary depending on the location of the clog, how severe it is, and which method is required to clear it. Simple sink or tub clogs start around $99, while main sewer line blockages that need hydro-jetting range from $250 to $450. Before any work begins, we provide an upfront, no-obligation quote so you know the exact cost.
What signs should I look for before a drain becomes completely blocked?
Early warning signs include slow-draining sinks or tubs, gurgling sounds from toilets, foul odors coming from drains, water backing up into a shower when a toilet is flushed, or multiple fixtures clogging at the same time. If you notice any of these issues, schedule service promptly to avoid a full backup and potential water damage.
Do you guarantee your drain opening work?
Absolutely. We stand behind every job with a 30-day clog-free guarantee for residential drains and a 90-day guarantee on main sewer line jetting. If the same line backs up again during the guarantee period, we will return and clear it at no additional charge. We also provide recommendations to help prevent future blockages.
