FAQs

What exactly is drain opening and why is it important?

Drain opening is the process of clearing blockages and buildup from your plumbing system to ensure that water flows freely. This service is essential in preventing backups, water damage, and unpleasant odors. In Ducktown, where older infrastructure is common, regular drain opening helps maintain the efficiency of your plumbing system and extends its lifespan.

How can I tell if my drain is clogged and needs professional attention?

Signs of a clogged drain include slow drainage, gurgling noises, foul odors, and water backup in sinks, showers, or toilets. If you notice any of these issues, it’s advisable to contact a professional plumber. Ignoring these signs can lead to more severe blockages or even damage to your pipes.

What methods do you use to open and clean clogged drains?

Our technicians use a variety of methods depending on the severity and location of the blockage. These include high-pressure water jetting, mechanical snaking, and the use of specialized chemical cleaners when appropriate. We also employ diagnostic tools like video pipe inspection to pinpoint the problem area, ensuring an effective and lasting solution.

How long does a typical drain opening service take?

The duration of a drain opening service varies depending on the complexity of the blockage. For most residential drains, the process can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours. Our team works efficiently while ensuring that every blockage is fully cleared and that your plumbing system is restored to optimal functionality.

Do you offer emergency drain opening services in Ducktown?

Yes, we understand that plumbing emergencies can occur at any time. That’s why our team is available for emergency drain opening services in Ducktown. If you experience a sudden blockage or water backup, please contact us immediately, and we will work to resolve the issue as quickly as possible to prevent further damage.

What can I do to prevent future drain clogs?

Preventative maintenance is key to avoiding future drain clogs. We recommend regular professional inspections and drain cleaning, avoiding the disposal of grease, hair, and large food particles down the drain, and using drain strainers to catch debris. Additionally, periodic cleaning with environmentally friendly solutions can help keep your drains clear between professional services.

What our customers say

Todd Farner was the gentleman sent out to help us with a pretty severe clog. He was fast, curious and efficient. Thank you, Todd and HEP!

Had a stopped up sink. Called HEP. They sent out Daniel who was very polite and got straight to business and got our sink unstopped. Very satisfied with our service call. Will definitely use HEP in the future.

Todd Farmer - I cant say enough good things about him. First and foremost he arrived at the time he said he would. 😃 He was very professional and being an inquisitive person by nature I had many questions to ask as he worked. He was very patient and personalable answering all my questions, taking the time to explain the reasons that could have contributed to my clogged sink and why he was doing what he did. If we were rating on a scale of 1 to 10, then I’d defirnitly give him a 10. I would consider him an asset to your HEP family. Thank you.

HEP is an awesome company, and Todd is an awesome employee. He wasnt at all judgmental about the unlikely chain of events that broke our plumbing. Took care of the problem right away and we can use our tub again!

Melissa G.

Reuben was super helpful and kind. HEP responded almost immediately once I submitted the online request and had someone here within hours to fix my sink.

Team S.

HEP was my fourth call to get help unclogging a drain. They were able to come out the same day (not in five days like the other places). They arrived within the window they gave, they called thirty minutes before arrival, and they fixed the problem quickly. Not only did Johnny H explain to me what the issue was, but he took the time to explain how it happened and how to best prevent it in the future. I am truly grateful to Johnny H for his expert care! Thanks, HEP!

My kitchen sink was stopped up, both sides! It was a mess! I had called Pipe Wrench the evening of the 9th asking for someone to come out the 10th. No response, so I called HEP the morning of 12/10/19, and they sent Johnny out. He had completed the job, cleaned up, and was out by 5:pm. VERY thankful Johnny was able to come fix my drains!!
