FAQs
What does your “proactive approach” to drain opening mean?
Instead of waiting until a clog has completely stopped up your plumbing, we use inspection cameras, flow-rate testing, and preventive enzyme treatments to detect and clear early blockages before they escalate. This reduces emergency calls, minimizes pipe stress, and extends the life of your drainage system.
How quickly can you reach my home or business in Decherd for a drain issue?
Because we are locally based, most service calls in Decherd are scheduled the same day, often within two to four hours. For urgent backups, we provide 24/7 on-call technicians who can be dispatched immediately.
What equipment do you use to open stubborn drains?
Depending on the clog’s location and severity, our technicians may use motorized drain augers, high-pressure hydro-jetting machines, and in-line video cameras. Hydro-jetting scours pipe walls clean, removing grease, soap scum, and roots, while cameras verify that the entire obstruction has been cleared.
Are your drain-opening methods safe for older or fragile pipes?
Yes. Before choosing a clearing method, we assess pipe material and condition. For cast-iron or aging PVC lines, we adjust jetting pressure or opt for soft-shaft augers and bio-enzymatic cleaners to avoid damage while still restoring full flow.
How is pricing determined for a drain-opening service?
We offer flat-rate, upfront pricing based on drain type (kitchen, main sewer, laundry, etc.) and the complexity of the clog. You’ll receive a written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises. Preventive maintenance plans are also available at discounted rates.
What can I do to prevent future drain clogs after your visit?
We recommend avoiding grease disposal down sinks, installing hair catchers in showers, and running hot water with a small amount of dish soap weekly. For ongoing protection, enroll in our annual maintenance program, which includes camera inspections and eco-friendly enzyme treatments to keep lines clear year-round.
